Sadly as of 2023 Enscape is no longer available for free for students. Alternatively you can use Twinmotion! You can find our installation manual for windows here.
Due to a malfunction you cannot access webmail from outside TU campus or without eduVPN. People from ICT and Microsoft are looking into the matter. Check Reports ICT for latest updates.
Update
You can access webmail without eduVPN using owa.tudelft.nl. However, it works only if you have MFA already set up.
Check ICT manuals on how to setup MFA or watch this video from Microsoft. Your username for MFA is your NetID followed by @tudelft.nl. Your NetID is your TU Delft account which you use to access online TU services like Brightspace, Software portal, Webprint portal, etc.

In the last weeks we’ve seen, and heard about, a few cases of international TU Delft students getting scammed. These students were telephoned by the ‘ministery of justice’ who said that they were suspects in a drugs investigation. They were asked to give their personal information and transfer a large sum of money to a ’holding’ account. If you want to know more about the method the scammers used you can read this article from TU Delta:
At the bottom of the article you will find a step by step instruction of what to do if you have been scammed. There is also a list of how you can recognize a potential scam.
The most important thing to know is that your bank and other institutions will never ask you to transfer money to another account, a ‘safe account’ or a ‘secure account’. If you get contacted by your bank, the police, or any other institution via phone or email asking for your personal information do not give any information and end communication. Check with your bank or the institution if they contacted you. Do not use the telephone number that the caller gave you, but look up the number yourself.
If you are ever in doubt if something is a scam, you can always contact us via our website, come to our office or make a call via the Self-Service Portal on tudelft.topdesk.net
At this moment Rhino 7 for Mac is not natively supported with MacBooks with M1 chips. For a lot of people this results in many crashes and unusable slow reaction, which makes Rhino completely non-functional. Therefore we do not recommend buying a new M1 MacBook for Rhino use, until the issues are resolved.
If you already have a MacBook with an M1 chip, here are some possible workarounds which works for some people.
Currently Adobe products are not available on Weblogin, Citrix or a TU-Desktop. We are looking for people that used it this way, or want to use it. If so please go to https://tudelft.topdesk.net/ and login to the self service portal, select “Report to the Service Desk”, fill in the form and set “Student IT Desk-ADHOK” as the operator.
