E-on-Lumenrt render for Sketchup

dbalex

thanks gaieus for this little test, it's still not revolutionary I would say, maybe with more time you could achieve better results. Can you choose between multiple presets for the environment or you have just one? Can you render movies or is it only for realtime presentations to move around in your model?

Gaieus

There are more environment presets (neutral white, bad weather, nce weather - the one I exported - blue sky - with no clouds).

Also note that the above render was made with the poorest quality available (draft) and there are three more "levels".

If your model has animation scenes, after you launch the viewer, it will automatically start playing it. You can also export those animations just like a SU movie.

ok so it looks like it's better than I thought, mmmh I'm tempted but as student I think it's still a little expensive for something I will not use everyday. Thanks Gaieus!

Panga,

There's a user on the e-on registered forum who has a problem very similar to yours. The latest update appears to have solved his problem. Did you give it a try?

Best regards

No,

I'm still unable to produce anything with it as the fix for my graphic card is not released yet...or did I miss something ?? Two or Three weeks after buying it...

Hi Panga, were you able to get this problem resolved for your graphics card?

Panga

Hi,

Yes I was the user on e-on forums that encountered the issue ! Everything is fine with my graphic board now.

dbalex

nice to hear! hope to see some rendered livecubes

Hi Everyone,

Just a heads up. There's a new update for LumenRT coming out this week. It includes a greatly improved ability to render very large models more efficiently with much better performance. More details are forthcoming on this later after the update is released.

dbalex

will there be a demo too?

Will we be able to have a look at the forum before purchasing?

Nicholas Phelps

Ecuadorian,

Yes, we've been wanting to open up our registered user forum for a while but haven't gotten around to doing it yet (it requires some work on the forum engine to let everybody read, but only let those who have a registered copy post).

We'll bump the priority on this a little more

Best regards

dburdick

On the demo version request, duly noted. We're looking into this.

Just a quick note, LumenRT is up for plugin of the year in the annual 3D CG Awards

Thanks to many of the people on this forum with their ideas and help to make this possible

hi at all,

LumenRT was my favorite, however i have try this on different pc´s.

LumenRT doesn´t work on pc´s nvidia Geforce 9800GT
Intel(R) Core(TM) QUAD CPU Q600 @2.40GHz 32 Bit WIN7 Ultimate.

a newer paccard bell (R) imedia Windows 7 Home Premium - Intel Core i5 (i5 - 2300, 2,80 GHz, 6 MB) - nVIDIA 1 GB - 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM - 1 TB Serial ATA - DVD - this work fine

plus

exe file is good when i dont want do give a file out of my hand.

what i can see isn´t bad.
navigation by the custumer/client
animation like in sketchup
plugin work on sketchup and sketchup pro 8
different versions (download or DVD)
work on WIN and MAC (macversion in a zipfile with password protection :-/)
the price

minus

preprocessing
no lights only sunlight
not a demoversion only a livecubeversion (exe) both is better.
only work for sketchup export from other apps isnt possible.

my compares

lumion work on a pc older than the packard bell(R)
twinmotion work on older pc export from sketchup to 3ds (only for pro user :-/)

my suggestion to pay for LumenRT

insert lights, provide night scenes, let work the livecube on older PC/MAC
insert animation that produced by other plugins in sketchup. provide a demo or trailversion.

sorry for my bad english

Hi Deaneau,

The GeForce 9800GT card should work. Can you try updating your graphics drivers on this card by downloading from NVIDIA and then trying LumenRT again.
