The software promises fast render speeds and a clean, intuitive interface Is a real-time 3D rendering program that syncs with SketchUp and aims to help users reduce the time it takes to create high-quality renderings and animations. There is also a 14-day free trial available. It's $39.90 for a fixed-seat license tied to a single machine. Pricing: $67.90 per month for a full version license that users can share across multiple machines. Collaborative annotation allows users to pinpoint problem areas, communicate with their team, and make changes or requests directly in the design file. Share videos, stills, and 360-degree panoramas via batch exports or one-by-one. The platform also makes it easy to collaborate with clients and stakeholders.

Atmospheric settings like clouds, time of day, white mode, and depth of field help users create emotionally compelling scenes. The Enscape for SketchUp plugin gives users the ability to create photorealistic renderings, animations, walk-throughs, fly-bys, and VR presentations.

You can also purchase the V-Ray Collection-which includes 15 products-for $699 per year. Pricing: V-Ray for SketchUp is $350 per year.

Aerial perspective, environment fog, volumetric materials.

Light gen, light mixing, adaptive lights, sun and sky.

It comes with a high learning curve and might be expensive for some users, especially given the fact they’ll be paying for SketchUp, too.

Then there’s shading, materials, rendering elements, and (a lot) more.Īt the same time, V-Ray isn’t for everyone. Atmospheric and volumetric effects bring depth to your renderings with realistic light scattering, haze, and 3D fog. Real-world cameras allow you to control white balance, exposure, and depth of field. There’s light gen, a tool that generates thumbnails of SketchUp scenes,each with different lighting. Inside, you’ll find several lighting tools,including global illumination, light mixing, and adaptive lights. Brings real-time, photorealistic rendering and a suite of sophisticated design tools into SketchUp and promises to take your 3D models to the next level.
