Topic: a small test with some effects in lumion SP2

[tug]

here is a small fast sample of some effects in SP2, will post some more in a while.
fog, fire, ocean and smog

[Remko]

Are you missing your icons? Or did you just choose not to display them?

[tug]

remko,
I use Ultimate Lumion, but can't select to show or not the icons.

I wrote to Arthur R. and Artur B. yesterday about this issue and Arthur didn't answer.

Could you do anythig about this?

Yes I can fix it and I will take a look. Maybe we'll change the icon system. We'll just display the icon of your current licenses and give you the option to hide or show the other icons. What other icons you might ask? I the future we will start handing out special medals for users. For example users that won a competition or wrote a tutorial. Things like that.

great Remko

there are a lot of good Lumion's users whom can share experiences, tips and tricks to others, Aaron, gilson, Pete, Gaeiu, Brian H, Ja-Willem, Michael Betke, Lezcano Cornejo..... and many others...

they all have many thins to teach to others and need a "special medal"

thanks

Yeah we noticed a lot of users love it to share things with the community so we will try and reward this with cool exclusive medals and free Lumion credits. In the future Lumion credits can be used for upgrading to 2.0 or other stuff.

@Lofts > Nooooo! Poor Sailingboat  Why not get yourself a Vimeo-account btw? Much easier to share stuff that way

Youtube is easier in my experience but Vimeo has a bit better quality.

Hi Aaron... I was testing what happens with fluids, and how a boat can move with ocean waves (take note from this Remko, a sailing boat must move up and down with ocean waves!!!!) and the the boat crashed with the cube stone.... surely the captain must be looking at some girl in bikini suit.....

[Ecuadorian]

Now that you mention it, having animated people in swimsuits is a must for beaches and pools.

So the ocean water actually adds geometry to the scene instead of just using a normal map, right? I bet that must be heavy on RAM.

[tug]

here is another small view with ocean's effect. To be more realistic when go into water you must use "water feature" from lumion landscape, but as ocean uses waves there is an "empty space" between ocean and water feature.

Maybe selecting quite better the animation path ones can disguise a little the gap between an effect and another ..

[Gilson Antunes]

Yes Lofts, gladly share my humble experience.

Remko, I also have no control over the icons.

Regarding the beautiful sea water, found a lack of speed control of evolution, to slightly decrease the speed at which the waves move. To give an effect of slow motion.

[Jon Sun]

Haha,lumion sp2 give us more usefull tools to do our work.
Great test,thanks.

Using smoke effect is available to make a flight between clouds, obviously this is only a short sample as an idea of how could be easy to change smoke effect to 3D cloud effect.
