Rayscaper New Releases

Here's a version with an HDRI map background
But I'm trying to make a "studio" render for a friend, and Sketchup crashes when I change the image resolution during rendering. I set it to 300x400 and double-scaled it twice, and it crashed both times. Should I send a crash report?

I paused the rendering and changed the definition, and it didn't crash... "studio" version raw rayscaper

Making sure I understood you correctly. Just changing the resolution (of the rendered image) in Rayscaper made the software crash?

Nice render, it doesn't seem to have the correct tags in the forum post because the picture is not visible for me immediately.

hello, yes, as I can remember

[pixelcruncher]

I created a hotfix for a crash and updated to version 0.9.68 Beta - please ensure you get that one.

Hey, Rayscaper users!

A new release, with some cool stuff!

Rayscaper 0.9.68 Beta is available in the SketchUcation store. As
I recommend upgrading to the latest version.

What Changed?

• Support for SketchUp 2026.
• Draw overlays for the lights in the viewport. This allows the user to select the lights in the viewport directly. You can enable
  or disable the overlay in the viewport toolbar.
• Save the layout and position of the Rayscaper window between sessions. You can reset the layout via the menu "File >
  Reset Window Layout".
• Fix a crash when minimizing the Rayscaper window.

Here's the light overlay feature in action:

@pixelcruncher

I am getting a crash when minimising or closing Rayscaper latest version.

Also this. Setpoint error, graphic did not save. The crash of Sketchup is repeatable.

[pixelcruncher]

@Mike-Amos Thank for reporting. Sorry about that!

I can reproduce the crash on minimizing, not on closing the Rayscaper window, though. Working on a fix.

@Mike-Amos Version 0.9.68 is out now, can you confirm that it fixes the crash you saw earlier today? Thanks!

[Mike Amos]

Sorry, confirm that the crash still happens.
