## **Enscape 4.9.0 Preview 1**

Release Notes 09.07.2025


### **New**

---

- **New Asset Delivery Platform: Chaos Cosmos**  
Enscape now uses Chaos Cosmos as the platform for delivering assets. While the assets themselves remain unchanged, the system behind them is getting a major upgrade:
  - Improved search and filtering for easier discovery
  - More modern, intuitive interface for browsing and placing assets
  - Consistent experience across Chaos products, with room for future growth
  - Same Enscape assets, now delivered through Cosmos

This change will initially be available only in Preview versions. This allows us to collect early feedback and make improvements before a full rollout.  
  
We’re excited about this transition and would love to hear your thoughts. Please share feedback in our Forum or reach out directly through our [Idea Portal](https://chaos.com/ideas/enscape).

- **Removed Support for SketchUp 2022 and older versions:** Starting with Enscape 4.9, support for old versions will be removed. This allows us to streamline development, improve code quality, and focus on supporting the latest SketchUp versions.


### **Fixed Bugs**

---

- **AutoLoD:** Fixed false self-shadowing artifacts in small scenes and with massively scaled assets.
- **Sun Position Sliders:** Circular sliders for Azimuth and Altitude can now be dragged as expected in the View Management panel.
- **Transform Gizmo:** Scaling now continues properly after re-entering the window, even if the mouse cursor temporarily leaves the viewport.
