Topic: Import

[lebleuetok]

Hello!
I wonder if it is possible to import a field I did with World Machine software on Lumion.
This land have been captured from the satellite data and represents the true relief.
If it is possible to do so, there would have a tutorial that I could look to find out how.
Thank you.

Hi lebleuetok

You have not mentioned which version you are using, so I can only given general guidelines as follows.

You should be able to import it using either one of the two methods mentioned in topic HOW TO WORK WITH TERRAINS IN LUMION in LUMION 5: Quickstart Guide.

I'm sorry but in writing his application in the "Demo, free trial or educational version" I thought it was clear that I use one of these versions.

So to answer your question, I use the "free trial Lumion 6" version on my PC at home because we are waiting for a response of 'the educational version "for our project architecture school or I continued my studies.

As for the Quick Start Guide I did not find an answer to my questions because the link is not working.
Thank's

Hi lebleuetok, by 'version', we're referring to the full product name and version number as shown on the Settings screen in Lumion, i.e. Lumion, Lumion Pro, Lumion Demo (available via the Try link), Lumion Trial (7-day fully functional version from resellers), Lumion Educational Free or Lumion Pro Educational. Examples of version numbers are 5.3, 5.7.1, 5.7.2, 6.0, 6.0.1 and 6.3.

So to answer your question, I use the "free trial Lumion 6" version

So is this the 7-day fully functional 6.0.1 Trial version that we offer via our resellers? Is it also that version you used for rendering ?

As for the Quick Start Guide I did not find an answer to my questions because the link is not working.

It's working fine here. Which error message did you get?

In any case, information about importing heightmaps is also available in this Knowledge Base article (if you want to use the Lumion terrain modification functionality).

Alternatively, just export the terrain mesh from World Machine in a format that Lumion can import, for example DAE (Collada) or FBX format. This model will be static but you can assign a Landscape material to it and paint it just like a native Lumion terrain.

Just click on the Knowledge Base link in my post instead.

Peter posted a link which applies to an older version of Lumion (as we did not know whether you were using Lumion Demo 5.3 at that point in time), so just ignore his link.
