Revit Trees in Enscape

[mikeferne]

Hi. So this is part Enscape as well as Revit so apologies if the incorrect forum.

First off, I'm running Revit 2023 and Enscape 3.4.0 +84039.

I have an issue where trees are showing in Revit but not in Enscape. I have attached 2 images. 1 is Revit showing all the trees that come with Revit out of the box and the 2nd is the enscape render of the same model.

As you see in Revit they display fine but in Encsape only the Crab apple tree is visible. Any ideas what's happening?

Also, if I use a tree from the Enscape asset and insert into my revit model, its renders fine in Enscape but in realistic mode in Revit, its just a grey tree outline, where it would be nice to see a realistic tree in Revit (like my attached example) for my scaled elevation plans etc. as I understand you can't output a render to a set scale i.e. 1:100.

I assume the trees you're using are revit families? If so, Enscape likely doesn't recognize it the same way Revit does. Same thing there other way: Enscape Asset trees only show as generic forms in Revit (grey mass) when in a realistic view. 

What I would recommend is to place Enscape asset tree in the same place as your revit trees. Group them together (model group) and hide/unhide as needed. This way, you'll have both sets of trees for either enscape and realistic revit views. 

1 additional tip I use alot: To my understanding, all Enscape Assets are categorized under the Planting Category in revit, so to quickly hide all Enscape trees, people, cars, etc, deselect Planting in your view's visibility/graphic overrides menu.

Thanks. Sounds a good work around.
