Lumion 2 also provides an easy to use editor for cross section animations and items can be dropped from the sky into place. This is great for animating vehicles, people and even parts of your design. In Lumion 2 you can now create curved paths instead of being restricted to strictly linear paths as in the first version of Lumion. Several new animation effects will make it much easier to animate objects. At night the sky transforms into a magical spectacle of stars, complete with a realistic moon and special night sky colorization and cloud lighting. The new sky system now includes 3 cloud layers, different cloud shapes and a spectacular spectrum of colors. To make this possible Lumion 2 will include a completely re-engineered sky rendering system. The new lighting also allows users the opportunity to create nighttime visualizations. Not only does the new lighting improve indoor visualizations, it also raises the bar for outdoor visualizations because of the improvement in overall lighting. To achieve believable indoor lighting, the entire material and shading system is updated for enhanced realism. The new lighting features allow users to create an amazing atmosphere for indoor visualizations. Lumion 2 will take visualization indoors by providing quick and easy tools for interior lighting.

Last but not least, significant performance and memory optimizations make importing of even complex 3D content faster than ever before. Additionally, a special COLLADA plugin for AutoDesk Revit has been included. The importing system has been extended with support for AutoDesk DWG and DXF file formats. Numerous of drastic improvements have been made, from the addition of indoor lighting to new post processor effects and content!

Just one year after the initial release of Lumion, Act-3D lifts the quick and easy tool for architecture visualization to the next level. Takes Real-time rendering to another level. Continue reading for the details on what is new since Lumion 2.0. Overall stability has been increased and we were even able to improve overall responsiveness of the program.
