Pros / Cons
  • Fun to use especially world building (placing trees, cars etc.) and creating scenes with different lighting, camera effects such as depth of field and using the near clip plane to get great perspectives on interiors.
  • Lumion needs a lot of computing power, even my RTX gpu struggles a bit in fairly medium to large projects.

  • Planner 5D makes it super easy to create custom floor plans and view them in both 2D and 5D. it gives you a great visual of what a room, building, house, office will look like before even starting the physical project.
  • I canceled my free trial before it ended, yet I was still charged. When I contacted support, they refused to take responsibility and kept blaming their payment provider instead of issuing a refund.
