Just got a link to “Lumion”, a real-time 3D visualization tool aimed at architects that boasts a wide assortment of file formats, prebuilt models, and plugins.
Lumion® is a real-time 3D visualization tool for architects, urban planners and designers. It’s perfectly suited for creating videos, still renderings and live demonstrations with a quick turnaround.
Lumion offers excellent graphics in combination with a fast and efficient workflow, saving you time, effort and money. It is in fact so easy to create awesome still renderings and videos with Lumion® that it almost feels like cheating.
Their free version is surprisingly feature complete, just dropping a few of the prebuilt models and no animation support, but definitely worth checking out. Requires Windows and a “modern” video card, and retails for 799 € or 1499 €.
