Lumion - Test drive
-
I would like to know which file format do you prefer for import into Lumion? I am using SU 7.1 Free, so I guess .dae is the only choice I have ( that is, without plugins like TIG´s OBJexporter )
-
Collada works great actually, I've had no problems yet.
-
OK, thanks for the info. No need for tweaking default export settings?
-
nope.
-
This was my second attempt. The thought is to animate a few existing projects and maybe the powers that be might loosen the purse strings so we can get a license.
This one is a little longer and a little more complete.

Here is my first simply fly around after playing with it for about 30 minutes. I haven't modeled the parking lot yet and added a lake out front just to play with the terrain tools. I have much to learn, but it is really easy and I can see that some of the questions I have had you guys have already asked.
I did notice that the if you had the opposite side of the default material exposed to the camera, it reads it as clear...which creates holes in your model if you are looking through the model at a wall that hasn't had a texture applied. Easy to fix, but something to point out for those that haven't played with it yet.

I definitely see the need for a way to Animate/Move doors for those occasions where you want to maintain a path where you encounter a door or an object that needs to be moved out of the way.

I have seen some mention of fbx but I have also (only) tried dae (collad) so far.
Next couple of posts I'd like to show how to import and deal with SU terrains. -
Wow! amazing..

See how the code is below. You can use the [flas] bbcode tag to embed a video here:

Yes, thanks NTh, I was desperately looking for this topic the other day but apparently used wrong search terms (and the forum search engine definitely sucks)
-

Cool, indeed. Even with the limited demo version you can make stunning scenes.
-
Cool Lumion tests!
Why the video embeded on the site are not clickable for arrive on the original Youtube ?
-
Really informative thread!
I've got a quick question. Does all of the output feature the heavy bloom effect, or is it something you can control or even turn off?
-
Bloom comes with the fog. So if no fog, no bloom. Besides, there is a couple of global settings for camera, light and brightness and such.
I was kind of overdoing the fog (it nicely represents DOF) but of course, especially with the 3D animation, you can live without it (or turn it down to something very subtle).
-
Thanks for the explanation
-
That's some crazy amount of wind on those poor plants, Bruce!
Cool video though. I see you figured out how to animate (move) things like that train (true that you'd done with the ship earlier, stupid me...)
