Hi,

I am using Rhino with v-ray and sometimes export files to collada to use the geometry in Lumion. It seems that something changed in an update somewhere, because i have increasingly run into issues where materials are not recognized by Lumion as the correct, but instead it seems they are named individual pr. mesh. The only fix i have found so far is that materials without bump seems to always go through, but material with bump assigned can sometimes go through.

I have recreated the issue on multiple computers with a lot of variations in the material definition, and there does not seem to be an apparent mistake i did recently, so it is general.

This is the DAE I get from v6. Not sure what to expect exactly, but importing it in Blender gives for instance two boxes with the same material Wood_box (or actually named Material-_Wood_box), not with duplicate materials.

I tried with your export, and it acts the same way as in Rhino 5.

The guys at Lumion has made me a Hot-fix which solves the issue for me personally, but the odd influence is still there for others.

Just out of curiosity, if it worked in the Rhino 6, would it not be fixed in Rhino 5, or has that now lost priority? It makes me a bit sad since i bought a Rhino 5 license in september. I tried to upgrade it before i finished my education to have Rhino 6 to play with at home, but never got a response from the danish re-seller.

If it is the Lumion import that gives duplicate materials, then the error is probably with Lumion. Blender imports the materials as expected. The COLLADA file internally looks well formed as well, with only one material for the Wood_box as mentioned earlier:

I have been working on the ampersand issue, and I think I have a fix ready. The fix will actually allow even for accepted non-ASCII characters as well, meaning scandics should work, greek letters, cyrillic etc.

Interesting to see the inner workings of the file. It seems the material id is what sometimes gets mixed up with the name for some reason. And somehow the bump provocates this.

Good with the character-fix. Thought having those kind of letters is just asking for trouble later on.

I purchased an HP Z440 to do my architectural projects with. I use software like Lumion, Chief Architect, and 2020 design. I am not happy since the outcome is not good especially when it come s to rendering. I was told that I need to upgrade the processor and the video card. Please help me with the best and compatible option to make sure that the computer serves me better.

Thanks for the review of Lumion 5 I have been using Lumion 4 and I it! I am not an architect but have always loved to draw uniquely shaped homes. When i found out about skecthup I decided to learn it so i can take my drawings to the next level, and then imported one of my home designs into lumion and I have been hooked ever since.

Hi,There are three components that are required to run the LiveSync connection:1. Revit2. the Lumion plugin (downloaded from here which ensures a connection)3. Lumion (the main application)The role of the plugin is to seamlessly transfer the information from the CAD software to Lumion. However, although the plugin is free, the main application can be obtained as a trial, a student version, or a commercial version.If you need any more assistance, please reach out to our support team here: -us/articles/360042039073

We downloaded and installed the 'free' Lumion add-in. (Revit 2023) when we pressed the play button a digi box appeared stating could not run in this version and must upgrade. Fine, clicked on it but then it takes you to the Lumion home page which is a paid sub...so Free is very misleading.

I have circular spaces in my project, in revit it looks smooth round without edges, but when ı throw it to the lumıon to render, the polygon numbers decrease and look diagonal. Is there a solution?I already set the parameter "smoothing surface" on high but the results is still bad.

Hi MarlenaThanks for asking. You can use LiveSync For Revit with student editions of Revit. Please contact Lumion Technical Support to assist (see links top right or at top of the product description).

Na hora de salvar o arquivo no aparece algumas opces como por exemplo salvar cenas, salvar modeloes e cenas... E depois do salvamento no possivel abrir o arquivo mais. Esse o unico problema que aparece, fora isso esse software otimo!

I was using Lumion LiveSync for a while and everything worked perfectly, but this week i've reinstalled Revit 2020 and Lumion LiveSync. After that, every attempt to export a collada file from any Revit model ended up in the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error message. I've tried to reinstall Revit, Lumion, LiveSync, but the issue perssits.
