Enscape Systemrequirements for macOS

Enscape performs its renders using your graphics card (GPU), but the GPU has to have dedicated VRAM, and not shared VRAM as found with Intel Integrated Graphics chips. A good CPU can speed up Enscape’s loading times. 

It is also recommended that your internet connection is fast and stable, and that you should use a direct cable connection, as this can slow down the Asset Library loading times.


The Enscape plug-in is provided for the following host applications:

  • Vectorworks: as of versie 2023 SP6
  • Archicad: as of versie 26
  • Sketchup Pro: as of versie 2021


On macOS, the Enscape plugin will be installed for all of the above listed host applications by default unless otherwise specified by the user during the installation process. This means you do not require a dedicated installer specific to each individual host application, and you can specify which CAD or CADs you want to install Enscape for during the installation procedure.


Recommended requirements Minimum requirements
  • Operating system: macOS 13 (Ventura) | macOS 12 (Monterey)
  • Processor:

Always check the system requirements of the host program.
