Veras 2.4: What’s New in the Latest Update

If you’ve been working with Veras inside Enscape, you know how powerful it is for speeding up design exploration with AI-driven workflows. With the release of Veras 2.4, Chaos has added new tools and performance enhancements that make the design-to-delivery process smoother, faster, and more reliable than ever.

Whether you’re an architect, designer, or part of a visualization team, these updates are worth paying attention to. Let’s walk through what’s new in Veras 2.4, how it improves integration with Enscape, and how it compares to the previous release.

What Specific Features Were Added in Chaos Veras 2.4?

Here’s a quick breakdown of the headline features introduced in this release:

1. Render by material or object in Enscape

Select and render specific elements instead of the entire scene.

2. Optimized 3D viewer performance

High-poly hidden objects stay hidden, while larger, essential objects remain visible.

3. Sun position controls in 3D mode

Adjust natural lighting conditions directly in 3D for more realistic simulations.

4. Stability upgrades

Improved handling of multiple simultaneous renders, better login/licensing reliability, and fixes for prompt-related rendering errors.

How Does Veras 2.4 Improve Enscape Integration?

Enscape users benefit the most from this release. With Veras 2.4, you can now render selections by material or object directly within Enscape, making it easier to test different finishes or design alternatives without regenerating the entire scene.

This tighter integration makes Enscape a more versatile platform for rapid ideation, especially when paired with Veras’ AI-powered design suggestions.

Which Performance Gains Does Veras 2.4 Deliver for Large Scenes?

Large, complex scenes often slow down design workflows. Veras 2.4 addresses this by optimizing the 3D viewer’s performance:

• Hidden high-poly assets no longer drain resources.
• Large, visible objects remain interactive, keeping context intact.
• Consistent frame rates (FPS) ensure smoother navigation.

The result is a more responsive environment, particularly when working on large-scale architectural or urban projects.

How Does Veras 2.4 Compare to the Previous 2.3 Release?

While Veras 2.3 was already stable, it lacked some of the granular control and performance refinements that 2.4 brings.

• 2.3 vs. 2.4 in Enscape: In 2.3, you had to render full scenes. In 2.4, you can isolate by material or object.
• Performance: 2.3 could slow down with large or high-poly models. 2.4 optimizes visibility logic, reducing lag.
• Lighting: 2.3 had sun control limitations. 2.4 adds sun position controls inside 3D mode, giving you real-time flexibility.
• Stability: 2.4 resolves common crash and error scenarios (e.g., rendering prompts with quotation marks).

In short, Veras 2.4 builds directly on 2.3’s foundation, bringing more efficiency and creative freedom.

Can I Use Veras 2.4 on Both Windows and Mac?

Yes. Veras 2.4 is available for both Windows and macOS users. This cross-platform compatibility ensures that design teams, regardless of their preferred operating system, can take advantage of the new features.

For Linux users, Veras is not yet officially supported.
