I’ve been keeping an eye on this piece of software for quite a long time, I found it smart but a little young for sketchup users (like me). With the new material editor I find it to be very cool, and even more interesting to produce atmospheric images and videos with such an ease!
So I am creating this thread not to invade someone’s other room, and try to make a little space for my sharing my noob tests. Hope to learn to play with this bad boy in a short time!
Thanks!
PS. My monitor calibration could be totally wrong due to reasons I won’t bore you with: tell me if you see it just right! Thanks!
Totally, I agree. The use of bloom, lens flare and fog are useful for creating atmospheric shots. I relied on Enscape for pushing out over 20 images within a day just to get several design options out to a client. So now, that’s why I am using it most often over anything else at the moment. Plus with the material editor, I’m amazed by the output.
Another series of tests. I noticed a small bug: in the reflections of the windows on the left, the palms seem to be cropped, while they’re not. Changing the camera angle doesn’t fix it, so it’s not a visualization bug
Very nice! The incomplete reflections are due to realtime optimizations. Usually, at least all lowpoly objects should always be visible in reflections.
They will all be visible in the rendering. Only in off screen reflections, they might be missing. This means if the object is not visible in the screen (slightly behind or beside you), just at reflections and is highpoly, then it could be optimized away.
Would there be a possibility in a future release of Enscape to have the final high quality output show the full reflections? Enscape is already so fast I think most would be willing to wait a few seconds longer for output of a final shot to get a more accurate reflection. I understand the need for optimizations, otherwise you couldn’t make Enscape render as fast as it does! – however, the cropped reflections are very noticeable – my eye went right to this when I first opened the image and I had not yet read pibuz’s comment regarding the reflections.
