Software Capabilities

OpenStreetMap Integration: Easily position your model anywhere on the globe using OpenStreetMap data. Lumion automatically generates detailed 3D maps by importing 2D geographic information, making location placement both seamless and accurate.

Weathering Effects: Previously, adding weathered or aged appearances to materials required manual texture painting. Lumion 7 simplifies this process by letting you add realistic defects such as rust, wear, cracks, stains, and moss with a single click, adding authenticity and depth to your materials.

Area Light and Light Strip: These new lighting options allow you to enhance both interior and exterior scenes beyond simple spotlights. Quickly add cable tray lighting, create warm ambient atmospheres, or simulate natural daylight streaming through windows to immerse viewers in your designs.

Plugin Features

• Tree and Plant Plugin: Includes numerous factory buildings and a broad selection of Lumion tree models, nearly doubling the existing material library.
• Human and Animal Plugin: Offers an extensive range of 3D human and animal models, complete with detailed materials, silhouettes, and billboards.
• Movie Effects Plugin: Adds essential cinematic effects such as depth of field, lens flare, sharpening, and an “oil painting” style.
• Special Effects Plugin: Enables the inclusion of dynamic effects like water, fire, smoke, and fog in your scenes.
• Environment and Weather Plugin: Features realistic weather modes and ocean simulations, ideal for coastal and marine environments.
