![]() I use Revit to create the building design, export out a dwg to Sketchup, texture the model, export a collada file & then import into Lumion. All of the materials come into Lumion where we then tweak them. ![]() Then we add Lumion entourage & weather effects. Then we make still images & videos, very easily & fast. What has been very difficult to for many users is that some upgrade features don't work 100% as advertised, such as the grass feature where the 3d blades of grass abruptly transition to a texture at a certain distance from the camera. The arrival of V5 this week did not arrive to cheers of hundreds on the forum like last year. The tutorials and documentation available is difficult to find and then often only applies to specific situations. I lot of former cheer leaders have disappeared over the year. I too was only able to get the full potential of what I was seeking after working with Dave Burdick and using the e-on forum. I'm coming from a GIS perspective and use LumenRT as an extension of ESRI City Engine. I get the feeling that a lot of people are waiting to upgrade until they see the results & problems of folks who do upgrade. I want Lumion to succeed since I have a lot of money in this program. But sometimes I get the feeling that the developers are really struggling. ![]() However, unlike E-on, makers of Lumen RT, the developers communicate pretty well through the forums. Frustrated Lumion users have been posting links to Twinmotion, another realtime software. It has a lot of promise if it gets developed & gets support. Unless it's changed a lot from a year ago, it's difficult to use & costly. I also tried Lumen RT 2 years ago & found no support, but the features seemed to have improved with this latest version. My best advice is to visit the forums of Lumen RT & Lumion to get a feel for how the users like the software use, results & support.
