Windows 11
-
My apologies if asked and answered.
Any known problems with su 2021 pro playing nice with windows 11? -
I haven't seen any reports of real problems with it. If you are upgrading your existing machine it wouldn't hurt to do a "Repair" of the SketchUp installation after the Windows upgrade. Find the installer or download it fresh from sketchup.com/download/all, right click on it, choose Run as administrator, choose the Repair option when it is presented. I would also make sure to update graphics drivers from the manufacturer of the GPU.

Thanks Dave, This is a new machine (big and bad a$$)
I held off on having them do windows 11 when they built it...just in case. -
Cool! What graphics card?
When you do the SketchUp install, remember to right click on the installer and do the run as administrator thing.

So much for windoze 10 being the 'last' os from microsnot, I wonder if this is the last? Until next time anyway.

[quote="Dave R"]Cool! What graphics card?/quote]
NVidia geforce Rtx 3080TI
This machine cut the Lumion Movie render times in half from my older machine.
I did install windows 11.
no issues so far -
Cool! I've been thinking about getting a new computer to replace my desktop machine.

get ready for a bit of sticker shock and wait time woes on some components. The high end gpu's are trading like stocks these days. I guess the demand by data miners is at least partially driving prices up & up.

Maybe I'll hold out for a little while then. What I've got works fine.

Was pricing out a new work box as I think I am due new boxes in July ('23 budget) and prices seem OK. Just 2 of us in this sub-department and I always budget $5k for 2 boxes. I paid about $2k for 2 8th gen i7, 32 gb ram, 1 tb m.2 and RTX 2080. So this is not that bad for 4 years later and less than $200 more each.
When I get new units we refurb the old ones and move them to shop offices. It's more power than they need so they never over use them. Usually get 8 years out of a box before we completely recycle.

That seems reasonable.
My machine is a bit more robust and came in at 6500 bucks.
The lumion files I work with are very large and complex so I need the Horsepower.
If it was just SU I could get by with a friendlier priced unit. -

Same problem here. Lumion does'nt like windows 11.
I have a RTX 3080, when i was with windows 10, i could use Lumion without any problem with max settings, it was fast, max fps in the editor, best result with the benchmark... I upgraded my computer to windows 11, now i can't use lumion properly anymore, the editor is very slow with 1 or 2 fps, render take a lot of time, benchmark gives a very bad result, even with middle quality settings
Last nvidia's drivers installed, every nvidia's settings tested and optimized (i firstly tried my previous settings then followed 5 differents tutorial videos for that). every other software works fine.
If someone uses lumion + windows 11, can you share your lumion and nvidia's settings, or every parameters which come to your mind which could solve this problem ?
I wish you a great evening, respectfully

I dont think I said I was having issues with lumion and windows 11.
In fact, I have no issues at all from switching from 10 to 11.
I will see if I can find some time to screen shot settings from my set up. Might be a day or two before I can get at it.

Hello

I wish you a good evening, respectfully

Have you reached out to Lumion staff with your issues? They have been super helpful for me in the past when I ran into hardware issues.
I do not have any special settings that I have done with my GPU. Pretty much the default settings.
if I remember correctly I just asked the lumion forum for advice on specific settings for my gpu and followed their diections to just change one or two setting to either off or on. I was not having any issues when I asked and did not see any changes in performance when I adjusted the settings.I would Highly recommend reaching out to the Lumion staff.
