Thanks for your suggestions and +1s, guys.

2 point perspective option for photos, to really represent an image as an architectural perspective

Really +1 !!

[Morten]

Thank you for your +1, Michael (although I recommend that you and any other customers with commercial or educational licenses post your requests and +1s in the Wish List section).

Carpark surfaces and road surfaces get very repetitive, would you consider tire mark tracks as decals, random oil spots, road patch repairs and other surface effects to add to the next Lumion? this will add more a more realistic surface for large carparks and long roads.

Hi blake0b, thanks for your suggestion.

Google sketchup can rotate the camera in a certain way, this is achieved by pressing CTRL, the MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON and moving the mouse itself.

Can I make a control of the camera in build mode?

no go in lumion, as far, as i know. camera in lumion is always horizontal. i miss that feature , too, since flights are far more realistic with that in skp....

Thanks for your +1s for a Rotate bank function for the camera in Lumion.

Hi Lumion dev. Potential customer here. Kudos to the focus on GUI and environment design fundamentals. Breathe of fresh air. Terraforming tool looks great. Beautiful waters and intuitive material assignment. Speedtree and GI very attractive new addition indeed. Yes I’m very interested...

My background is commercial music post-production. Making digital music video is my secret passion. I’ve outgrown iClone5Pro a year ago. Looked into Cryengine, still weighing the learning curve and time/money cost. By chance I found Lumion (from Artlantis forum and Twinmotion comments). Covered the latest here esp Wish List. Not sure if I’m your primary target audience or prosumer, but here’s my feedback... Hopefully via future mini updates or add-ons, these will be possible:

-Rigged character with Morph/Animation-loop Importation Pipeline (support for Daz3D models and industry standards)
-Higher res hair and lashes; Face morph recognition (Daz3D or Zbrush among others)
-Brush-on Vegetations and Paint On Terrain including user custom plant/textures
-Glass opacity control (a 1995 home design feature) and alpha mask support (allow architecturally relevant patterned glass panels)
-Saveable custom material/model/character with immediate access folder (a basic really)
-Road tool with customizable road/bridge/elevated road/rail pieces; similar fence-maker with custom parts
-A community custom material/object/character/animation sharing/trading scheme. Artlantis seems to have a better system for this. Do consider iClone style marketplace.
-iClone level hard/soft physics

I particularly like the “Emotional Connection” point, and the "Mr and Mrs Lumion" idea mentioned earlier in this topic. Muscle-weighted Cryengine res prototype characters and iClone type character animation will fill the evidently high demand for quality human models.

Thank you for your consideration. Regardless Lumion is doing great and moving in the right direction. Keep up the good works. I’ll be hanging around.

Hi Machinimator, thanks for your suggestions and +1s (quite a few of your ideas have previously been suggested by other users).

-Glass opacity control (a 1995 home design feature) and alpha mask support (allow architecturally relevant patterned glass panels)

(This will be available in the upcoming Lumion 3.0)

Yeah, the Show/hide icons system is messed up at the moment.

I hope Arthur will get a chance to fix it soon, before all my icons break the internet.

Dear sir
we need Pressing down to earth.
Path is determined by a linear curve.
Where we have used in swimming pools.
We need to push down on the ground.
But aside land to be pushed down. We do not want that.
We found exactly the same region on earth vertical is pressed down.
Thanks
