E-on-Lumenrt render for Sketchup
-
yes indeed, it looks like they have something to hide

Hi guys, here is a very quick and dirty example (probably e-on would not be proud of) I made when testing bump and reflection maps.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25025526/Untitled.exe (Mac users, sorry but I did not export a Mac compatible version yet as I could not test it anyway)Note two things when loading:
- the scene is a bit off my ground plane so if you start walking around, scroll a bit to zoom in and only then click the mouse.
- LumenRT places your scene onto its ground based on the lowest point (in my case, the bottom of the pool) of the model so you can easily "fall off" if you have basements or such, deep pools (certainly I should have added a bigger ground plane to the model but again, it was just for a quick test, nothing "real" as a presentation)
Press F1 to see all navigation and other options. Note that this model does not have SU scenes so exporting animation or playing it in kiosk mode is not possible (that was not part of my testing).
I should probably make some better model/example to show. Here is what you can "expect".

I liked to works Vue and it Versions
but
Will it be a good rival for Vray RT ? -
I cannot compare as I do not know Vray RT (to be honest, did not even know there is one).

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?
-
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?
-
Hi,
Yes I was the user on e-on forums that encountered the issue ! Everything is fine with my graphic board now.
-
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.
-
will there be a demo too?
-
-
Will we be able to have a look at the forum before purchasing?
-
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
-
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
http://cgawards.3dworldmag.com/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 fineplus
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 priceminus
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
