Rayscaper New Releases
-
hello, yes, as I can remember
-
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:

Thanks, very usefull function

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.
-
@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!
-
Sorry, confirm that the crash still happens.

Hello, if I leave Rayscaper open and import a texture directly onto a face (with the import tool) it crashes
-
I can't create an emissive material with an image, if I increase the power the image disappears and the texture is white. I can't make a monitor screen. Can someone help me?
-
crash again, I wasn't doing anything special... Sketchup 2024 and Rayscaper 9.6.8
-
Another crash when reopening RS and trying to apply a texture
-
I can confirm that with the models I had issues with in Sketchup V2024, crash occurs when minimising Rayscaper. After that last build they ceased when closing Rayscaper. In Sketchup 2026, No crash on minimising or closing Rayscaper no matter which model is in use. Other apps also function better, faster, cleanup for example would freeze. NOT in Sketchup V2026.
-
I came back to 9.64 version for test

Patience is a virtue. Having an app have backwards compatibility along with supporting multiple different GPUs and CPUs etc is challenging for a single developer.

Agreed, getting this far this fast as a one man band, part time. Wow.
Being in beta still, imperfection is a given but the ride is still good and hoping I am contributing sufficiently.

Yes! Indeed

Hey guys,
Looking into the crashes.
Hello, if I leave Rayscaper open and import a texture directly onto a face (with the import tool) it crashes
Was this on the first texture, or after multiple imports?

Currently, Rayscaper doesn't support emission with a texture. Which image are you talking about? Maybe a screenshot of your setup helps me understand it better.
Another crash when reopening RS and trying to apply a texture
Looking into the crashes, I think (I hope) I found the root cause.
I understand the frustrations, and I appreciate your help in making the software a lot better!
Cheers,

Nice render Mike!

I created a surface and imported a texture
I found a solution to make an image emissive: for example for PC screens on the following images I make a copy of the face that must receive the image and I place it in front 2 or 3 millimeters of the initial face to which I applied an emissive. On this copy of the face I put my image as texture and I increase the Transmission slider, and it works well. (I just discovered this feature!)
