Rayscaper New Releases
-
you can't use Rayscaper on your 2023 SU ? If yes do you get the same issue when increasing camera resolution?
-
ok, i found it
-
To get back to my point about the crash when I change the camera resolution: it doesn't crash on smaller SketchUp files, I've run tests. But it's true that this particular file is quite large, 279 MB.
-
Have a look at this guide on how to release seats: https://rayscaper.com/faq/licensing/#how-do-i-release-a-license-seat
-
@Krass, I'm updating my documentation, stay tuned. If I have time this week, I will also try a video.
-
@Krass Yikes, can you get me the logs after a crash happened?
-
@majid I'm supporting 2026, 2025, 2024. I changed that a couple of releases back.
-
Done, I send the bug report
-
@krass - Here's the animation guide: https://rayscaper.com/guides/animation/ - Please let me know if everything is clear, or if there are any issues with the feature, because it's brand new
-
Yes, I've already figured out how to render an animation! I'm testing it now.
-
Too bad, my first animation attempt crashes after three frames... yet the functions, animation settings, and interface are very well done.
As soon as I minimize the window to show the desktop, it crashes. -
By dragging the Rayscaper window to the bottom of the screen, it seems to be holding... I'll let you know in about an hour and a half.
-
@Krass Sorry about that, it's a brand new feature (implemented two weeks ago), so rough around the edges. It would be great if you could also send the logs for this crash?
Pro tip, first render out a small resolution, low samples per pixel animation. They you get an immediate feel for it without having to wait too long
-
yes I'm now rendering with default SPP, anyway this new feature is such I giant step, i'm so exited...
-
@Krass Thanks for the kind words! Great to hear that you like it!

@Krass Nice, thanks for sharing! Super cool to see this result.

Hey, Rayscaper users!
Rayscaper 0.9.83 Beta is available. You can get it via:
- The SketchUcation store.
- Direct download: Rayscaper_0.9.83_Beta.rbz.
I recommend upgrading to the latest version.
What Changed?
- Add Nishita sky sun tracking from SketchUp shadows. The procedural sky will now automatically follow the sun position set in SketchUp's shadow settings, making it easier to match lighting conditions across your workflow. You can enable this via the menu
Extensions > Rayscaper > Sync Nishita with Sun. See Syncing with SketchUp Sun for more details. - Improve environment power controls with logarithmic sliders. Environment intensity is now easier to adjust precisely across a wide range of values.
- Fix crash when changing render resolution. Rayscaper will no longer crash when you adjust the resolution settings.
- Fix alpha textures to use linear color space. Alpha channels in textures now render with correct transparency values.
