Thanks mate. Fredo's radial bend looks great. Will give it a go. Thx again.

Hi all, If you can imagine the attached pic as a piece of paper (or better still perspex a few mm's thick) folded into that shape - my question is where would I start to create that as a 3D model. It would have a variety of curves and angles. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. THX.

Thanks Guys, will read up on Vue 'Infinite' and 'xStream'. See whats appropriate for our stuff.

Wow Kristoff....now that's a recommendation. I appreciate your time and advice. Based on that I will indeed check out Vue (and Lumen RT - thanks also Kim!) FYI - I'm employed in graphic design/CAD for an urban developer so would use this for anything from a local park to a full village. And as for my computer, I'm soon to renew so it's important I make the right software choice and check the minimum system requirements. Thanks again.

Hi All
Looking to evaluate animation/rendering software for use with SketchUp - absolutely love what Lumion offers but can anyone recommend other comparable software I should really take a look at? Espec those with large landscape/plant libraries and animated cars/people/trees etc. Thanks.

You have not give the name of your Graphic Card !

Light Up, Podium, Twillight, Lumen Rt etc...

Thx Pilou. My graphic card is actually an Nvidia Quadro NVS 4200M (more of a 'cad' type card) whereas Lumion needs a better 'gaming' card like an NVidia 460GTX / ATI 5850 or faster. Will look at those others you listed. As I mentioned we really need that extra option of saving mini-movies out of the fly-thru's. Cheers.

Hi all. I'm after some recommendations for rendering software for SketchUp that INCLUDE the ability to create fully rendered flythroughs as well. I've seen Lumion in action and it's impressive but have a problem with the graphics card in my work laptop for that software. Can anyone recommend any other software I could look at? Thx.
