horizon distance

Please allow to see further into the distance. I have projects that have views of geographic features further in the distance than Enscape allows to see. I have these features modeled in sketchup but would like to show my clients the views in enscape. Thank you.

    Thank you for your suggestion! We understand that being able to see further into the distance would be beneficial for certain large-scale projects. Currently, Enscape has a maximum draw distance of 17km, which is automatically adjusted based on scene size. While we could technically increase this limit, doing so would reduce z-buffer precision, potentially causing issues like z-fighting and shadow artifacts, which could negatively impact the overall visual quality.

    Given these trade-offs, we won’t be making this change as a default setting. However, our Customer Experience team will reach out to you and offer a configuration file that allows increasing the draw distance for your specific use case - though please keep in mind the potential visual drawbacks.

    We appreciate your feedback and your understanding as we continue to balance performance, quality, and usability.
