An incredible way to create
views for architecture
The Lumion is a powerful, practical, effective and fun to use, which allows anyone to build a 3D
environment and then create beautiful and striking images or videos.
It has real-time preview that allows you to create scenes in minutes and this is the fastest way to be
able to present a project that can truly delight the customer.
The story of the creation of this tool is curious because the Act-3D, the company that developed
the Lumion actually already working on another tool called Quest3D, which is a program designed for
real-time simulation and largely uses programming language. But many users of the program decided to
use the Quest3D architecture to create views, although the software had not been created for this purpose.
So, realizing that could develop a new, more user-friendly tool, but with the same ability to
presentation, was born Lumion, a display program in time for architects.
The Lumion has a trial version that can be downloaded at

https://lumion.com/free-trial.html the free version is fully functional, but with limited amounts of objects,
image size limit and watermark on the screen.
Like any Lumion the 3D software requires a more robust configuration to run quality due to its
real-time rendering. Follow the settings below:
minimum system requirements
Graphics Card: Approximately 2,000 PassMark points, 2GB of memory or more and compatible with DirectX 11 or
later.
RAM: 8GB (for simple scenes) use higher frequency (MHz) when possible Operating system:
Windows 7, 8 or 10 64-bit CPU: above 3 GHz.
recommended system
Graphics Card: About 10,000 PassMark points, 8GB of memory or more and compatible with DirectX 11 or
later.
RAM: 16GB or more use the higher frequency (MHz) when possible Operating system:
Windows 10-bit 64
CPU:. Processor above 3 GHz Ideally 4GHz due to use of faster video card.

Knowing the interface
By opening the Lumion for the first time before the start, the program is a performance test on our
computer to evaluate the graphics capability called benchmark, this feature will allow us to know if our
system supports work properly with the program.
After this process the window Start appears's ranking Computer Speed:
1234
In the opening window Start we have the following features:
1. Language - Choose the language for the program;
note: The default language is English, but we can change to Portuguese or another language.
However, some translations are not clear due to technical terms that are used, I recommend the use of the
tool in English as the language poses no problem and the program is highly intuitive.
2. Start - This tab can access tutorials videos and choose the initial scenario for the model;

3. Examples - It has sample templates to test the program;
4. Load Scene - Used to load saved files from own library Lumion;
5. Computer Speed - Shows the classification of the computer as the speed and graphics quality.
Mouse Functions
Left button - Object
scroll - Front / Back / Panoramic
Selection.
Right button - Look

around.
TIP: Scroll using the + space bar will have the Camera Panoramic much slower. Already using Shift +
Scroll move faster camera and still Shift + Space + Scroll moves very fast camera.

Navigation Keys
Used to move the camera on screen Build, Photo, Movie and Panorama 360.
W or Directional arrow up - Move the camera forward;

S or directional arrow down - Move the camera back;
A or Directional arrow left - Move the camera to the left;
D or directional arrow right - Move the camera to the right;
Q - Move the camera up;
AND - Move the camera down.
TIP: Using the key Shift along with the directional commands the speed is twice as fast. For slow
motion effect we use the Space-bar. Using the Shift and the space-bar together we will speed 4X faster.

Building a world

first settings
Click on the button Settings. You can set some options for the Lumion gain more speed while
working.
1 2 3 4 5 6
1 - Land Quality - When enabled increases Landscape resolution - Shortcut F7; 2 - Quality trees - When
enabled increases the quality of representation of the trees - F9 shortcut; 3 - Switch to digitizing table -
Enables the sensitivity function for digitizing tablets instead of using the mouse;
4 - Invert mouse buttons - When enabled changes the moving up / down.

5 - On / Off Sound.
6 - Go Full Screen - Enables the full screen mode, hiding the Windows bars;
Quality of Editor - It allows you to configure the quality of real-time rendering, the smaller the
amount of stars lesser quality. This option improves computer performance.
F1 - 1 star - shadows and some disabled film effects; F2 - 2 stars - soft

shadows turned off;
F3 - 3 Stars - low-quality land and off ground shadows; F4 - 4 stars - the highest level of
quality;
Resolution editor - Sets the resolution of the images.
10

TIP: In most cases we can use the editor resolution at 100% and use the quality editor switching from
low to high during the creation of the scene. To create the image or video must increase all the parameters
for a better presentation.
measures - This sets the model unit in decimal or imperial.
error Logging - When enabled creates a log file so we can send support in case of a hardware
error or Lumion.
Starting a new project
To start a new file in Lumion choose tab Start a scenario model according to the project proposal.
When loading the scenario we are directed to the desktop Build. This is where we can insert our 3D
model, make the settings of materials, inserting library objects Lumion or our custom libraries.

In the material editor we find the following options: a - Preview / Library Material - Shows the
material currently selected and allows return to the material library;
B - Menu - Displays functions to copy, paste, save and load materials. also
It has functions to reload the model;
19

w - Choose Color Map - This texture slot allows you to add your own
texture. This is the Channel Diffuse material. In Slot Color Map, you can also use an MP4 video file (up to
50MB per file) which allows you to create animated textures, for example, for a TV;
d - Choose Normal Map - Adds a normal map for the Relief Channel.
If your normal map has an Alpha channel, it will be used as a brightness mask.
and - Flip Normal Map - . Changes the direction of the normal map After Lumion have created a normal
map based on Diffuse, you can reverse the direction of depth by clicking this button;
f - colorization - Allows you to create colors in the material or modify the texture color. In between
0 and 0.5 have the original color. From 0.5 to 1, the color map texture is progressively replaced by the
selected color. To lighten / darken a surface, change the brightness slider;
g - Gloss - If we use a brightness mask on Channel Alpha Normal Map,

we can control through the sliding between 0.0 and 1.0, which correspond to any brightness to whatever the
value of the brightness of the grayscale. Values above 1.0 multiplied brightness mask value between 1x and
2x (where the result is limited to 2.0) if no brightness mask is used, it assumes that the mask is 100% white;
H - reflectivity - Between 1.0 and 2.0 the material changes to metallic reflections that will
reflections dye with the color of the material. For mirrored reflections, you should use a metal material like
Chrome;
i - Relief - This option adds relief to the material when we use a normal map; j - Scale - texture size
- Material will use the mapping coordinates
automatically if the value of this property is equal to 0 (zero). Values greater than zero assigned, resize the
texture in the model. The texture will always keep the proportion of the original image;
k - Expanded Setting Groups - this option find various settings

Advanced materials:
position - Adjust these sliders to change the position of the texture and normal map.
20

Orientation - Adjusting these sliders to change the orientation of texture and normal map.
Transparency - This option has two settings. Waxiness ( Waxy) is a similar effect to translucency Sub-Surface
Scattering (SSS) allowing the light pierce the objects and Transparency what It is the transparency of the
material.
Settings - In this option we find the following features:

• emissive: Used to create materials with its own light;
• saturation: Controls the saturation of the color map / texture;
• specular: Increases the enhancement of Specular reflections.
• Flicker Reduction: You should use this option only when the overlapping surfaces blink or
disappear when you move the camera. Avoid extremes;
• texture Alpha - The three buttons allow you to specify whether the Alpha channel in
the color map is used as a mask reflectivity, a cutting mask or issue.
21

weathering - This option adds texture aging effects, intemperismos, dirt, frayed edges, moss and
rust to the materials;
foliage - Add foliage effect texture;
• spread: Spreading the foliage (distribution);

• Leaves Size: Size of the leaves;
• Leaves Type: Type leaves, there are 9 presets.
• Spread Pattern Offset: standard displacement spread, used to randomize the distribution
of leaves in the model;
• Ground Level: Adjust this control if your model is above or below the Lumion the ground;
TIP: Tips on foliage

1. If the leaves do not appear on the surface - if the leaves do not appear on the surface
the Lumion you can move the field closer to the model. 100m There is a limit to the leaves can be
processed.
2. If the leaves are scattered far - the density of the sheets will vary
depending on how big the model. There is a leaf limit per polygon, therefore, in a large polygon with
no subdivision, you will not see a leaf density so great.
22

We can choose other saving options such as individual image or sequences of images instead of
video in MP4 format.
An interesting option to save the current view in the video options is the Custom Output
configuration that saves the separate channels to compose in an external image editor. See the main
settings:
D - Save Depthmap - Saves the depth of channel - Z Depth; N - normal mapping Save - Save the
shift channel - bump / normal map; S - Save Specular Reflection Map - Saves the channel
reflections of the scene; L - Save lightmap - Saves the maps of lights;
A - Save Sky Alpha map - Saves the Alpha channel to Heaven, allowing the clipping of the same;
M - MaterialID - Saves the channel allows the material sets them in post production;
TIP: The choice of image size to save is directly related to saving time. Large images have high
quality but will take longer to complete, as well as videos.

Shortcuts and
Tips
importing Model
The Lumion supports various formats of 3D models import of various programs,

as 3DS MAX, REVIT, SKETCHUP, ALLPLANE, RHINOCEROS,
Vectorworks and ARCHICAD.
The Lumion 8.3 lets you synchronize your model using an extension for SketchUp which facilitates a
more practical export. But this feature is available for SketchUp 2017 and 2018. But we can import in Lumio
also using .skp format.
As an alternative we can also use the .dae format (Collada), which sometimes allows you to save more
complex models.
To export the model in Collada format follow the steps below:
1) Go to the File menu and click the Export option.
2) Then choose the 3D model option.
3) In "Type" choose the option COLLADA file (* .dae).
59

4) Click the Options button to set the export format.
5) In the options window should check if this marked the triangular option all
faces for the export function properly.
note: Remember to create materials for all objects that have been in your model, it is very
important that no objects are exported with only the standard material SketchUp.
For other import options visit the Export Guide Lumion (in English)
https://forum.lumion.com/model-import-guides/

Now it's up to you!
The Lumion evolved considerably in recent years and has won many fans becoming, for many, the
favorite renderer.
Knowing the potential of this tool can say that anyone can develop projects with images and
animated videos through these new features and follow the step by step correct because it is even simpler.
But it is important to remember that simple not to say it's easy, so understand that this guide I am
giving you the basic tools to start learning Lumion without having to go through the difficulties I went through
while learning.
