To use the software, you navigate using a combination of the keyboard and mouse like many first person perspective computer games. First, it’s an entirely different program where you import your model and begin to build the project within a different interface.

With less than 2 months of experience with the software, I’ve been able to get beautiful renders, both still images and video, in a fraction of the time than other rendering engines I’ve used in the past! It’s important to note that I’m using Lumion Pro, which offers an expansive library with all software features when compared with the basic Lumion package.Īlthough I’m still a novice at using Lumion, it’s been a very easy transition from all the other rendering engines I’ve used in the past. I finally got my opportunity to test the latest Lumion Pro (versions 9.5 and 10) and use the software for the first time.

The interface and commands are designed in a manner that are familiar and easy for migration from any CAD Software.Over the past 5 years, I’ve been eager to test and use Lumion to render all my architecture projects. It also supports other file formats like.
