You can also set up an environment before you start populating the project. It is also possible to set them one by one or use the group option to set a group of the same component at one type, it is a great option to reduce time and efforts. Users can change the proportion of the component, its direction, colors but it can’t change anything about the component.
Lumenrt vs lumion vs twinmotion software#
Everyone else that doesn't need those options can use a standard version.Lumion is not a modeling software because you have to model assets in different software and import them or use the library of assets. Lumion has many different assets, it offers a wide variety of trees, humans characters, animals, props, lighting, and furniture. Call it a "pro version" or something and charge more for that version. To the enscape team, create a way to bring decent content into revit like a proxies system or something along those lines so we can have vegetation and decent furniture etc. Twinmotion is going to be great, and im sure we will use it to create great images, but dont get too excited, it will be a very long time before twinmotion catches the ease and quality of enscape. I get all of that with enscape, i can even add lights while enscape is open to areas of my model that are dark, i cant do this with other software applications. As an architect im using this tool to SEE the space, i want to see the actual finishes, see the correct lighting etc. And moving around in the scene is not photorealistic. Whether i sync or export my file i still have to go in setup the lighting, setup the materials, tweak a ton of settings to get a decent image.

Here is the issue with software like twinmotion, lumion etc. Enscape is the easiest to learn, easy to produce, and time saving option out there, and the results if you have your workflow setup are actually the best (excluding thea and corona). Where im going with this is we work in a Revit environment (sometimes sketchup). I personally have Thea and corona for my personal projects. We also have Lumion, artlantis and LumenRT. So ill be getting the new version as well. I think Enscape has its own place and its a secure one at least in our firm.

(as long as an Archicad add-on is only months away!!) I will be getting my hands on the Twinmotion system as soon as I can but if they price it to suit the commercial market it will be an easy decision to stay with Enscape. You will still lose out to those customers who want the bells and whisles but at least you haven't spent big $$ trying to hold onto them. Don't overdo the options just do what you do and do it well at a sharp price. What you are offering with Enscape is simplicity. The sooner you have an Archicad add-on the more likely you will capture those that don't want to fork out big $$ for the fully featured twin motion & I would suggest that would be a good chunk of Archicad users. This will be a big aspect in any decision between the two options. As an Archicad user I currently output through sketchup to Enscape which looks fine but when meeting with clients it makes 'changes on the go' not possible. Twinmotion is being released with the 1 click syncro add-on built into Archicad. Simple proxies for sound/vegetation/lighting is all that is required then let all the work be done in the main software beit revit/sketchup or archicad. The point I am trying to make is that you shouldn't spend all your development time/$ on options within enscape please just stick to a straight render that works like you currently have it and you will capture a segment of the market that twinmotion will not be competing in. If they pitch it at $100US a month it could entice me & other archicad users away from Enscape, I realize that is double the price but per month an extra hr of work to have the extra features is an easy sell. Looking at their current pricing I would suggest they will be more like $200US/mth which is more than achievable for big firms & big jobs but not something I am going to be jumping at to showcase my everyday residential designs.

Lumenrt vs lumion vs twinmotion full#
Initial impression of this system is that it will be one of the best out there for full function (animation/materials/objects etc) real time rendering but it will no doubt come at a significant cost. As you will be well aware (and maybe seen the beta versions) Twinmotion is releasing an Unreal based realtime renderer for Revit & Archicad.
