Chaos Envision 1.1 is now available and it’s redefining what you can expect from architectural animation software.
With intuitive motion controls, automated rendering tools, and advanced scene management, Envision 1.1 empowers 3D artists, designers, and visualization professionals to turn complex designs into compelling, real-time visual stories. Whether you're working on an architectural walkthrough, a product showcase, or a concept animation, this update streamlines your process while enhancing creative control and visual quality.
What's New in Envision 1.1?
The latest release of Envision introduces several features designed to help users work faster and more intuitively. Here’s a look at the highlights:
Traffic Simulation
Quickly generate realistic, flowing vehicle traffic that interacts with pedestrians and adapts to terrain. This feature brings life to urban environments, offering new depth for streetscapes, plazas, and infrastructure designs.
Proximity Sensors
Add interactive behavior to your scenes. Trigger animations when objects approach others like automatic doors opening, elevators activating, or displays reacting to nearby users.
Rendering Queues
Automate batch rendering across multiple camera views. Integrated with AI-enhanced output and Chaos Cloud Collaboration, this feature reduces manual effort while ensuring consistency across deliverables.
Coming soon in future updates:
-
Navigation Presets to match movement styles from familiar 3D software like Enscape and 3ds Max.
-
Decal Objects for applying detailed surface graphics.
-
Object Replacement Tools for fast asset swapping.
-
Selection Controls and Animated Tooltips to streamline precision and learning in dense scenes.
Build Cinematic Visuals Without Breaking Your Workflow
Envision continues to push beyond traditional rendering software by combining real-time 3D assembly with cinematic storytelling and photorealistic visuals—all in one platform. The software is designed to handle dense geometry with ease, supporting trillions of polygons and importing scene data at object-level granularity.
With direct integration of the Anima engine, you can easily populate your environments with animated human crowds. Add dynamic lighting, animated vegetation, or weather variations to create immersive experiences your audience won’t forget.
A Smarter Ecosystem for Visualization
Envision fits naturally into the Chaos ecosystem, making it easy to move between V-Ray, Enscape, and other design tools. The non-destructive workflow means you don’t need to start over each time you make a design change—just update your .vrscene file and Envision handles the rest.
Support for interactive design variations, 4D sequencing, and AI-enhanced assets gives you the tools you need to iterate quickly and communicate clearly.
System Compatibility
Envision 1.1 supports .vrscene files exported from:
-
V-Ray Next, 5, 6, and 7
-
Corona 12 and above
It’s currently available on Windows 10+ with support for NVIDIA RTX or AMD RX 6000 series GPUs.
