It might very well be as simple as you describe it, i.e. As an outside observer I don't have any details of the GS - Chaos relationship. Yes but I think it is just a question of perspective. The visualisation software vendors are going to do what they can do to increase their marketshare, if that means developing workflows for Archicad connectivity then they will invest, otherwise if they don't think the market is what they are after they won't invest. Sadly you can't expect Graphisoft to pay other software vendors to make their software capable of working with Archicad.

In response to your final paragraph, I 100% agree that visualisation is moving faster than AC can develop. The goal of Enscape is to reduce the cost of entry for Archicad users that are used to Twinmotion and are interested in finding an alternative and purchasing their software. The deal that Graphisoft is promoting is an Enscape promotion. I saw the Twinmotion deal and knew it was a plan from Epic to get users addicted to it and then begin charging for it! It is a marketing technique. I went down the Enscape route and paid for it many years ago. I think we will have to agree to disagree on this one.
