Enscape™
Win64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
1. Install Enscape
Use the Enscape setup tool to integrate Enscape into your Revit installation. When finished, you should see Enscape as a new “Ribbon”-menu bar in Revit. Just click the orange start button and let the show begin.
2. Load your Revit model
Open your Revit model and ensure, that you have a valid 3D view. The more material settings and objects you have in your scene, the better it may look.
3. Start Enscape
Press the start button. You can walk using the WASD keys with your left hand while looking around with your mouse. Have a look at the on-screen-hints. If you update your Revit-model, Enscape updates instantly.
4. Tweak materials and lights
You might have noticed that it’s a bit dark or colorless. No problem, just place light sources inside Revit to enhance your walkthrough. You can greatly tune the material appearance by changing the glossiness.
5. Liven up scenes with 3D asset collection
Convey the right esthetic to an architectural project by placing and adjusting assets and materials with ease.
6. Export into a variety of outputs
Enscape has full VR support, multiple panoramas export, web standalone and desktop standalone app, panorama tour, and video paths to help clients understand the full scale of their projects through an immersive environment.
