Additional Software Requirements | The Enscape installer will check for the presence of additional software required to run Enscape. If that software is not present the installer will prompt you to download and install whatever is missing from your system. For deploying Enscape via Command Line, here’s a list of that required software: | ||
Machines Without Dedicated GPUs |

Unsupported Hardware | Radeon 6000 mobile GPU’s SLI Note: you may still experience a performance boost by using SLI AFR mode, which is a setting that can be selected in your NVIDIA driver properties. In cases where you have multiple GPU’s, Enscape will only utilize one of those GPU’s. Only docking stations that support accelerated graphics will work with Enscape. | ||

Basic Facts
- Corona is entirely CPU-based (with optional GPU AI denoising which requires a compatible GPU)
- Offers unbiased and biased rendering
- The two commercially available plugins work with 3ds Max and Cinema 4D
Hardware Requirements
- Corona requires a CPU that supports the SSE 4.1 instruction set.
Only very old CPUs don’t support it. Here is a list of compatible CPUs. - To use our optional preview denoisers during interactive rendering, you need:
- For the NVIDIA GPU AI denoiser: an NVIDIA GPU with Maxwell or newer architecture and the newest GPU driver. Not all mobile GPUs are supported.
- For the Intel GPU AI denoiser: an NVIDIA GPU with Volta, Turing, Ampere, Ada Lovelace, Hopper, or newer architecture.
Note: these denoisers are optional, and Corona works fine even if they are not installed. We also offer a High Quality denoiser, which utilizes purely the CPU, and this denoiser can be used on any computer which can run Corona.
- There are no other hardware requirements.
