Topic: Plants and trees not moving in animation

[aidanacker]

Right now, all my plants and trees blow in the wind while I am in editing mode.  However, when I create a movie they do not move, instead staying still like hard objects.  However, my people are animated.

This is on Lumion Pro 2.5.

I am not sure if this is not yet a feature, or if I need to enable it somehow.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Hi aidanacker, can you zip + upload your scene so that it's ready to render the clip on my PC?

The scene files are located in My Documents/Lumion 2/Scenes.

I don't need any of your imported files in the Library folder since the problem only affects trees from the built-in Model Library in Lumion.

Thank you very much for offering to help!

Hi aidanacker, in your scene, Wind Strength is quite low (0.2), but the leaves are moving a bit, both in Build mode, in Movie mode (when you move the timeline slider) and when I render an MP4 video.

Have you tried to increase the Wind Strength + keeping the camera stationary in your clip, so it's easier to see if the leaves are moving or not in the MP4?

That worked.  Thanks!
