Hi aecrender
The terrain tools are much the same in Free, Lumion and Lumion Pro. Four slots plus the side rock. Free does not provide access to the Lumion terrain texture library or the templates, or ability to open and load your own textures.
Most buy Lumion for all the things Lumion can do, of course, along with the benefits of rapid scene building, fast rendering etc

. I suppose it depends on what the features are that you are looking for, and how well Lumion meets those for the type of visualization tasks you want to achieve.
.. Can more paint slots be added in the future? I wouldn't think it would require much to add more slots or be able to turn them off/on via layer systems. Also, the brush is in a circle. Other options such as square, etc...would be nice too.
I am unable to indicate, as that sort of decision is in the hands of the developers. How many paint slots do you feel should be provided?
Thanks for your suggestions. Different brush types have indeed been suggested by other users.
