      ... It's hard for anyone to cough up what Lumion asks... It should light a fire under Lumion, though. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw them adding more features and lowering the cost soon.

      This is what I am really hoping for. As of now the rendering quality of lumion is far superior to that of TM. But as per the Official forum, TM currently utilizes Unreal Engine version 4.17. In the coming months hopefully the latest version of UE would be ported to TM. That means realtime raytracing and that is really going to up the game. So either lumion steps up and produce some really phenomenal features to justify its hefty price tag or they better go down the subscription route, the latter being which I believe they would be going for logically.

        I suspect that Twinmotion will disappear as a product in November, Unreal are launching 'Unreal Studio'at $49 per month, Twinmotion will be an integration of Unreal with the modeling app and it will be hands down the leader from launch as it has so much more to offer than anything out there.
        I have avoided Unreal as the workflow was just too complicated and time consuming, now Unreal will be able to simplify and integrate their product with our modeling app, if it can be as easy as Enscape then they will be the winners and so will we.

          Yesterday I worked with twinmotion untill night and renderd my first 3D 360 pano video in 4K for oculus rift. Ok 20 seconds took 7 hours to render but the result is impressive.

          I have many new ideas

          What a nice app. I was waiting for it for years

          360 pano video!! I'm going to have to try this out, I've been looking for that capability in a real-time renderer (that's not Lumion.) What hardware are you using to render?

            Anyone play with the BIMotion yet. I am able to get it to work but the resolution just looks horrible but still images look good. Is there some sort of setting for better looking export?

                is it possible to change the backgroundsphere to my own equirectangular pano?

                here's a video of a current project. This is really the advantige of Twinmotion. Videos are rendered very quick. this one took less then 10 minutes to render.

                  10 minutes! That sounds fantastic. I hope I have time to look at this soon--it will save time in the future. Nice work, Jo-ke.

                    Played around with this for about a day but sadly my old laptop is just not up to the task. Great features but frustrating when a simple edit takes forever. Anyhow had fun with this existing model of a B'n B Dining Room posted below and really like Felix the kitty sitting by the door.

                        Seems yes ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        Minute 0.57 second video! Sorry in French... but here the transllation ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        The key is to use a textured dome for create a "context"

                        Step 1 - Load textured examples created by Jesus Carbajal

                        Step 2 - Save them inside user Library of Twinmotion

                        Step 3 - Launch TwinMotion. Domes are organized bottom of the user Library.
                        drag & drop them to the scene

                        Step 4 - Select the Dome's texture with the ink-dropper. Like this you open the dock of the materials parameters where you can adjust the texture's position.

                        Use these domes as example, for create your own environement, you can replace the texture by another 360ยฐ images.

                        PS Not sure you can with these free version.
                        .

                          But where is the User Library folder on computer inside this TwinMotion version for input these files ...that's the mystery! ๐Ÿ˜„
                          And make our own tmi another one! ๐Ÿ˜›

                          Maybe also try with the Library/ Volume/ Sphere Reflexion Probe...

                                  I can paste the dome to my model but when I change the texture the old one remains and is someway overlapped to the new one.... Strange...

                                  Also in the lower parts there is Fog. Now Idea how to erase the fog....

                                      Vegetable Menu / Materials Menu

                                      • Take any texture - Clic "Color Plus" to get the Texture Menu
                                      • Apply this texture to the dome! (Drag & Drop)
                                      • Click on "Texture" word - load any image
                                      • Right Click on the Control Globe that contains the new Texture / Add to User Library
                                        The native texture is obviously not destroyed!

                                          If I make it look easy...It is probably easy
