“(IRender nXt) Cloud rendering has made the design process far more agile and time efficient. In the past when I was rendering and designing simultaneously it slowed down some of the features in SketchUp; with the cloud rendering that problem has been solved.“
“”
“I was thrilled to find this program (IRender nXt) that I found affordable as well as easy to learn how to use.”
“I always enjoy when a client is amazed that their house looks “just like the renderings!””
“IRender nXt provides me with the ability to provide quality renderings that help me convey my designs and win business.”
“It (IRender nXt Cloud Rendering Service) has definitely added value to our business in terms of the amount of designs we can turnaround simultaneously. It is also great to use when travelling as everything is cloud based.”
“nXtRender (for Revit) is much faster than the Revit rendering engine and I like the results much better.”
“The IRender Batch Render option came in handy for this, because I was able to render out multiple views overnight, which allowed me to save time and budget on the project.”
“I was impressed with the ease of integrating ArielVision into SketchUp and being able to produce the first rendering quickly.”
“I fully expected to consign IRender to the deeper recesses of my ‘C’ drive. What I did not expect, was the level of enthusiasm I have come away with from this first project. I now want to learn all I can about SU and IR. I have produced a reasonable render for my client. Yes there are things I have done which I am not sure how they worked out as they have and will probably not work the same way with my next model.
It has been a long time since I downloaded a piece of software which not only worked out of the box, but filled me with an enthusiasm, which has been missing for a long time.”
“We needed a means of extracting and formatting attribute data from our models to import directly into our ERP system. SpaceDesign was excellent for this…” Ken, New Zealand“
“The ability to use different light sources and types of lighting is perfect.”
“Thank you so much for giving me some ideas and the forum! I’ll look into it and I really appreciate the response”
“Your program (IRender nXt) is very nice and our customers are always pleasantly surprised.”
“I find it easy to apply what I need to get the level of photorealism I want, and the results are spectacular.”
“Once again thanks for your quick response. Your product is starting to really turn heads in our office as we use it more.”
“I am thoroughly enjoying the program and think it’s a great plugin.”
“I’m teaching this stuff and can barely keep up with the students sometimes so my learning curve has to be accelerated sometimes.”
“.. and am so impressed with the customer support that you have given me. Rest assured that I will be certainly recommending to fellow SU (SketchUp) users to buy your integrated plugin for rendering”
“I used SketchUp and IRender nXt to recreate the office set from the 1960s Dick Van Dyke Show. It has been great fun and I absolutely LOVE your product.”
“It (nXtRender for AuotCAD) is a great program, and a far sight quicker to setup than AutoCad render.”

- Components – Move, Copy, Rotate, Mirror, Stretch, Aim

- Materials – Select, Edit, Place
- 2D Plotting– edge line colors and thickness, 2D Text
- Rooms– create a room for quick placement of components
- Shapes– create render friendly standard 3D shapes.
- Non-photorealistic – apply non-Photorealistic rendering effects.
Use our range of Component Wizards to quickly manipulate components in your model.
- Move Wizard – precisely move a component along an axis

- Copy Wizard – create a copy of a component and place
- Mirror Wizard – mirror a component around an axis
- Rotate Wizard – rotate a component using different anchor points
- Stretch Wizard – stretch a component
- Aim Component – aim or point a component
- Select / Place Component – select components from your libraries, view, spin, and orbit, and rotate during placement
Place Material uses an Explorer type tree to select materials and place them directly on faces without having to open components and groups for edit.
The tool “drills” into the model to determine which face, (or component or
group), to change to place the material.
Non-photorealistic tools enable you to quickly create non-photorealistic effects that help your designs standout with prospects and clients.
- Soft and Sketchy Shadows – create images from SketchUp with soft shadows from the sun. Create sketchy shadows by applying a texture pattern on a soft shadow.
- Sketchy Textures – create your own sketchy textures to be used with SketchUp or Sketchy Shadows.
- Soft Edges – saves an image of your model with colored, transparent or softer edges.
- Crayon Colors – select from 132 Crayola® colors to achieve a crayon look.
- Save Model as Image – saves special images such as edges only or shadows only for you to combine in a paint program like Photoshop for special effects.
- Tileable Texture – make any image or pattern tileable or repeatable for use as a SketchUp material.
Proxy Components & Other Functions – More tools to extend SketchUp’s capabilities and enhance your creativity and productivity
- Shapes Wizard – create simple render friendly shapes such as bottles and cylinders
- Alpha Channel – add an alpha channel to a raster image
- Alpha Images – save image as an alpha image
- 2D Text – create 2D renderable text components
- Polyline – draw lines without turning then into faces where they meet
- PDF Plot – plot and print plans and elevations using pen widths and color assigned to edge line
- Room Wizard – quickly create a room as a group and place components
