#LUMENRT TUTORIALS FOR MAC#
Version 1.2 was released today and it is available for Mac & Windows.īefore I get into more detail about LumenRT, I must say a little thing about the “RT” in its name. So… LumenRT is e-on software’s revolutionary new product for the visualization of architectural projects in real-time 3D with accurately simulated lighting. I’ve played with it for some time now and we actually use it the studio for real work, like Villa W in the image above. This is how I found out about E-On Software’s new real-time 3d tool named LumenRT Review for SketchUP.
#LUMENRT TUTORIALS SOFTWARE#
It is so similar to all other practical process, such as driving or football… it need attention ,being enthusiastic and spending some time practicing.Being a distributor of software via Polytown has its perks. i.e one may start from Twilight render, that generates quality renders using a simple interface, then if necessary might migrate to more advanced ones.īy the way, I’ve arranged my Thea course so that one may start Thea instantly and using exercise files builds up his/her experiences to a fair level. Preventing a beginner to be lost I suggest a similar approach if interested to learn the rendering by themselves. Later on I moved to Twilight (free and pro, Thea, V-ray ( for SketchUp obviously )… and recently was honored to be include in Chipp’s eevee course as beta tester. I myself started from Kerkythea (or KT), and my free (and paid version) e-book called “ KT fast start 4 architects” is still out there. I was trying not to use technical words such as Biased/unbiased/cpu/gpu etc as much as possible, but thanks again fro your detailed description. The lighting aspect, much like photography requires a sound understanding of lighting types, placement and quality to make a properly textured model appear real and it can be very satisfying when all of this comes together. In all renderers, there is a lot more to learn to produce good renders, most won’t do it at the push of a button as you need to carefully apply textures (not necessarily the sketchup ones) and add lighting. The newest addition to this which is free is the new EEVEE renderer in Blender, which is a real time renderer but takes a fair amount of learning. Lumion, twinmotion and LumenRT are biased renderers that utilize game engine technology, so while producing “real time” renders, they are highly optimized and may not appear as real, but their strength is mainly for animation and movement where they can efficiently render thousands of frames instantly, which is the trade off, they will not produce as good a still frame render IMO as other renderers. Biased renderers are using software to approximate lighting behaviours to speed up the render times, the settings for this can radically speed up the renders but compromise true accuracy, however, some of this is subtle and may not be noticeable. Unbiased renderes are true raytracing and as the name suggests will produce physically accurate renders. The other major distinction is “biased” and “unbiased” renderes, and those that can use your cpu vs gpu or both.

Also what is the end result needed for?, if it’s for fun then you may not wish to spend a fortune, but if its for professional presentation then you might need the functionality of a higher spec render. The price range varies too, by example, from $0 (kykerthyhea) t0 $700 (vray).

Most have a free trial period so that’s the best way to determine which fits your style best and ease of use for you, and look through their respective site’s galleries to see how the renders look. There are so many renderers available now, and just like modelling tools, they can all produce decent renders, but the approach is a little different in each, particularly the interface, so it’s best to find the one that suits you.
