However, the most common workflow with Revit users is to “pause” the live renderer while actively adjusting the Revit model. Enscape bills itself as a “live renderer”, and it is. These are non-negotiable unless Enscape HDRI’s are used.
Not to mention it being a virtual nightmare for Revit users who happen to be Interior Designers or Landscape Architects. File management aside, all lighting settings for Enscape must be set up in the Revit project with regards to Project Location and sun settings.
Neither of these workflows are ideal for Revit projects that have tighter and tighter schedules. One they use for CD’s and the other specifically used for renders. On the other hand, they may decide to have two ongoing Revit projects. Therefore, a Revit user must contend with unnecessarily having very bloated Revit project files, that have many assets in them, that are used only for rendering, and then having these assets turned off in all views that aren’t being used for renders. They are not typically of good use for construction documents. In addition, they are only good for rendering. The drawback here is that these assets also turn out to often be much larger “family” files than what Revit users are typically used to. It cannot operate independently.Įnscape uses Revit families and materials as a base, however it does provide a growing cloud-based library of higher-quality assets for rendering that can be downloaded. Basically, Enscape is a sort of fancy “rendering window”, in this case, for Revit. To use Enscape, both it and that other software needs to be running at the same time. Since many companies will soon find themselves having both programs and trying to decide which provides more benefit, I have compiled a few main points between the two that may help companies decide which is best for them.Įnscape is a “live renderer” that ‘plugs in’ to various design-authoring programs such as Revit, Sketchup, Rhino, and a few others. Even if AEC companies decide to purchase a full commercial license of Twinmotion, currently at under $500 USD, they may be hesitant to do so as they may already be paying similarly for another archviz product called Enscape. This partnership allows the AEC community to freely dip their toes into the world of archviz more than ever before. Autodesk did not purchase Epic Games or Twinmotion, but they have formed a strategic partnership. Since Autodesk announced at AU 2022 that Epic Games’s cost-efficient archviz tool, Twinmotion, would become bundled with every license of Revit, there has been a lot of confusion on social media regarding whether Autodesk had purchased Epic Games.
