How to import Poliigon Models into Enscape with Revit
To import models into Enscape with Revit, make sure you’re first selecting .fbx as your download format from Poliigon. Enscape suggests using models with fewer than 20k faces. For certain models, open the download settings on Poliigon and check the boxes for a lower LOD model. Then follow these steps:
Navigate to the Enscape > Asset Library window.
Select the 'Custom Asset' tab, then click the + sign to add a new asset.
If you want, add any details you like. Then, click 'Import Geometry' and find the .fbx file you downloaded from Poliigon.
Automatic material import is still not fully supported for .fbx assets, so you'll need to manually add the material maps. If you have already saved a .matpkg file for a Poliigon material (see the next section), select that.
Use the included tools to create a thumbnail for the model.
Close out the editor window, and you should now see your model listed in the custom asset library.
How to import Poliigon PBR Textures into Enscape with Revit
To import materials into Enscape with Revit, first follow this guide on creating a material with Revit. If you wish, you can stop after the create new material step and finish editing the material in Enscape.
Navigate to the Enscape menu and click on the Enscape Material Editor.
Find the material you created in step one in the list.
Use the dropdown at the top to select the material type. Generic should be fine for most Poliigon materials.
Click the folder icons to load your texture maps, making sure to set the normal map's dropdown to normals. If you're loading an older Poliigon material, make sure to invert the gloss map when presented with the pop-up in the roughness section.
If you like your material, you can export it as a material package file. This way, you can use it for other projects. You can set the default location to save by clicking on the gear icon at the bottom left, then clicking on the file path to edit.
Hover over the material entry in the list, and click on the 3 dots; then select Export.
