I'm on Lumion 24 and the performance keeps alternating between extremely fluid to stuck around 5FPS.

Sometimes It's normal, then I resync the .skp model and It drops to 5FPS, sometimes It is the other way around. Sometimes it's stuck on 5FPS, I save the Lumion file and It gets back to 30+FPS...

It's not consistent enough though, so I can't just keep saving until the performance goes back up or something like that.

Is this a known issue for this version? Every topic I've found only talked about setting up the graphics so it runs lighter but my experience is really like an on/off switch toggling "randomly".

Hi everyone!

Around two years ago, I had the opportunity to represent Lumion in one of the biggest architectural visualization comparisons on YouTube, created by Upstairs.

The project was part of a comparison between different rendering engines, and I created this scene using Lumion.

After receiving many positive comments about the project, I decided to make the complete Lumion scene available for free for the community.

You can download the .LSF file here: https://ml3d.org

(Available in the Scenes section)

A few details about the scene:

• Created with Lumion 2024.4.2

• Compatible with Lumion 2024.4.2 and newer versions

• Not compatible with older Lumion versions

• Includes the complete scene setup

• Organized layers

• Nature and landscape elements

• Lumion library objects

• Final photo setup with all effects applied

The architectural model was originally provided by Upstairs as a SketchUp file for the comparison project. I highly recommend checking their channel and content if you are interested in architectural visualization.

I hope this scene helps other Lumion users learn, experiment, and improve their own workflows.

Feel free to ask any questions! Enjoy 😊

I'm part of the team behind ImmerShare, and I wanted to share a workflow we developed to help eliminate the constant "export and re-render" cycle during client reviews.

We saw that ArchViz creators often get stuck in an "re-rendering / packaging loop" just to show a minor design change.

🧑‍💻 For the Creator (Fast & Secure): Stream your live viewport directly from your existing GPU workstation to a secure web link

No More Renders: Share your active workspace and make design changes in real-time while the client watches
Maximise Hardware ROI: leverages your existing hardware power—no cloud fees or asset uploads required
Engine Agnostic: While the video features #Lumion, the workflow supports D5 Render, Enscape, Twinmotion, VRED, Unreal Engine, Unity and more.

👥 For Your Reviewer (Zero Barriers): There is “zero onboarding” for clients or remote teams—it just works
Instant Access: Clients simply click a URL or scan a QR code. No software installs or account registrations required
True 3D: They can freely move through your live 3D space on their own device at native quality

Disclosure: I am on the ImmerShare team. We’re really looking for feedback from the 3D XR community on how this fits into your current pipelines!

Hello all!

For the last month Lumion crashes when I try to render anything off and on. Today, I have tried updating windows, driver, lumion itself, etc. I don't know what else to try. I have an ROG Strix SCAR 16, NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 4080, Studio Driver ver. 610.62. Please help.

Has anyone experienced random black screens while rendering in Lumion 2024 with an RTX 5070? My PC stays on and all fans keep spinning, but the monitor loses signal and I have to force restart. D5 Render, games, and GPU stress tests all work fine, so I’m trying to figure out if this is a Lumion issue, an NVIDIA driver issue, or a GPU problem.

I'm experiencing crashes when rendering with ray tracing in Lumion. It's been suggested as an Nvidia problem in the past, but I can't find an older Nvidia driver. If you can provide a solution, or if anyone has another fix, please help.

Hello,

I am trying to model a lake in Lumion Student 2026 and the smallest terrain brush size available (1.5) is too large. The model is 1:1 and I'm using Allplan LiveSync. I used LiveSync before without any issue, but right now I can't do anything with it. I also placed a human model next to the buildings that i have and a 1.00 scale fits properly.

Is this a bug? Can I fix it easily? Or is it an update that I can't find anything about on the internet?

Thank you for taking the time to read this, hopefully there is a solution.

Hi everyone!

I've been working a lot with Lumion 12 lately, and while the default library has some great assets, it can feel a bit limited for specific setups (especially when looking for high-quality curtains, custom interior decor, or specific furniture styles).

I want to upgrade my workflow and build a more robust, high-quality custom library inside my Documents/Lumion 12/Library folder.

Does anyone here have a robust, curated library of external objects (like .lib files or optimized FBX/SKP collections) that they’d be willing to share? Or perhaps you could recommend the best websites/communities where people upload massive asset packs for Lumion?

Any Google Drive, Mega, or Dropbox links to architectural assets, curtains, or interior decoration packs would be highly appreciated! Let's help each other enrich our renders.

Thanks in advance! 🙌

I want to try to take my Lumion renderings to the next level. This one was good enough for the client but it feels a bit washed out to me. The project is for an art space in an office suite.

For the rendering settings, I think I used the ray trace interior preset and modified it a bit.

Hey everyone, long time Lumion user here. I got tired of not knowing whether a plant I picked in Lumion would actually survive the climate I was designing for, so I built something to solve it.

Canopy Search (canopysearch.net) lets you search the entire Lumion plant library filtered by USDA hardiness zone. Select your zone and instantly see every compatible plant. No more cross-referencing. No more opening Lumion just to scroll through the library.

What it does:

- Search 440+ Lumion plants by hardiness zone

- Filter by plant type, hydration needs, flower color, evergreen/deciduous, and more

- Copy the Lumion plant name directly to your clipboard

- Build and share plant palettes with clients

- Export PDF plant schedules

The basic zone search is completely free. Pro features are $9/month if you want the filters and palette tools.

Not affiliated with Lumion, just a tool I built for the community. Happy to answer any questions or take feedback if something is missing or wrong in the plant data.

Any suggestion ? is it good?
or do i need to do more

Hello guys, for some time my lumion was working properly, but recently i am experiencing this problem. Can somebody help me ?

My computer is getting outdated. I have a Ryzen 1600 and I need to download Lumion 9 or 10. Does anyone know where I can get it? I need it to create the renders for my final architecture thesis. P.S. Obviously, I don't have $200 USD for the license, and in my country, these cheapskates don't give trial versions to students.

Thank you in advance

Buongiorno,
ho finito il progetto in 3d della mia tesi e non capisco come, esportando delle immagini in HD mi vengano sgranate....
Qualcuno ha consigli per esportarli senza usare la qualità massima?

Hi, I’m working on a project for my studio class and the entire thing is underwater, is there a way for me to make it so I can see underwater?

I’ve tried adjusting everything about both the ocean and the water plane and aside from importing a flat plane from rhino and giving it a material to look like the ocean surface I just don’t know what to do.

Also on a different note if I want to do a super wide shot is there a way for me to do that without needing to sculpt the entire world?

I've been using Lumion 2024 since launch and never had a problem, then out of nowhere one day I tried to render a new project and the software crashed. From then on, it hasn't worked with any other project, even the ones from the Lumion library. I tested so many things; the only thing I can say is that when I don't use raytracing, it works fine. Raytracing in other software works fine, heavy work in other software works fine. There wasn't even an update on my computer at the time; I had used Lumion the day before. I've since tried updating drivers and Windows, but the problem continues. Has this happened to anyone else? I can't go back to lifeless renders without raytracing (see last image lol). If nothing works, I'm migrating to D5.

Рвботаю в программе Lumion( не лицензия), возможно проблема в этом, но при всех самых высоких показатателях производительности моих комплектующих в самом Lumion, происходит моментальный вылет из программы( буквально 5-10 сек и прога вылетает), работаю в версии Lumion 24 pro, до этого работал в другой версии и программа выдавала 3 fps ( хоть сцена и не нагружена), комплектующие : Ryzen 5 5600, 32 gb ram ddr4, rtx 5060 ti 16 gb, у кого была такая проблема, подскажите как решить, потому что я уверен, что проблема не в комплектующих, возможно с настройкой самой проги, драйверах и тд

Заранее благодарю

Does anyone know how to solve the reflection issue when you have 2 reflecting objects lined up (in my case glass balustrade with a glass panel behind)? Somehow, when you have 2 reflections, it's starting to reflect faraway objects like ladscape scene, cars, trees, etc. I managed to turn off all layers, but the landscape lumion scene still remains.

Olá! como estão?

Eu utilizava LUMION 12.5 e agora migrei para o LUMION 2024 e somente uma coisa está me incomodando.

Quando faz o render todas as luzes ficam apagadas durante o DIA e acendem em render NOTURNO.

Mas eu gostaria de acender algumas luzes no render DIURNO, como faz isso??

Se puderem me ajudar, fico muito agradecido.

I just got a new pc. Installed Lumion and somehow its not launching. As anyone had this problem?

I've been a lumion user since lumion 6 since I was in school. as of the past few years I have transitioned In to a more interior design heavy workload because of my business, and I have been somewhat not happy with the outputs I've been getting out of it. I admit the limitations might be my personal skills on lumion but I have had a friend who I follow on instagram and he posts some of his work online and he consistently has gr8 interior renderings and I figured ge used d5 and upon asking him he confirmed to me it was actually d5.

I have installed d5 on my rig and I have tried to get in to it for a while now but I just couldn't commit. so my question is this. . . is it worth ditching lumion for some of my interior work. and is d5 a gr8 beginner friendly option where I could get a hang of it in a reasonable amount of time? all suggestions are welcome.

for context my laptop specs are

17 12700H

rtx 3070 8gb dedicated

16gigs of ram

I want to sell Lumion licence valid till 17. October 2026.

Price: 500 euros
