I have experienced 4 crashes in the approximate 1 hr of use. I can provide the temp files via a Dropbox link if they will help.

Crash - LumenRT 2016
↧
Add the following functionality in the software, Can be achieved?
Greetings,
But I have been dreaming of has the following features: (but in the most recent version update, has not been achieved)
It is "Move copy, or Axis Shift Copy" feature.
1- If the model on plane, is horizontal and vertical position, under the software's default is achievable.
2- But if the model on plane, is to a certain angle, such as placing hedges (more than one, imagine it needs to Number 10 object), Place it'm very difficult, you need to add after the placement is completed, needs a a adjust the angle, there is no quick and efficient display.
Cordial Greetings.

Lumen RT 2016 preview - what i need
Hello Everyone
thanks for accept.
I used few times Lumen as we start with the software ( maybe you remember Dave )
I found some great possibilty but i need some more before buy.
First i want to try new version and help you investigates any problems with my big files. As you see my works on B. vis gallery
i have many heavy files to check. Ok so - is possible to received this beta version ?
What i need ?
As i use 2 times Lumen 2015 i can say :
- need to have speed of moving camera ( we talk about this Dave 2 years ago :) - just add + / -
- need to import saved views with proportion ( even only FHD proportion )
- need to import lights
A problem i had was:
- some flicker on materials ( even if my rectangle was above ground )
- cars animation / path ( added in Lumen ) not working or sometimes
IT NEED MORE CONTROL WHEN ANIMATION START ( for moving object , clouds ) - sometimes are in other position when you try first time and other next...
or i miss something ?
- can people be more natural looking ? faces ?
And finally the price ! IS WAY TOO HIGH TO POSSIBILITY ! I check that i need GEODESIGN for 4K movies. Max 1000 $ is good price i think.
Bentley offer me as a special price the price that was always on Lumen page as standard price. Strange.

Adding IES lights Problem
Adding IES lights Problem:
1-adjust "POWER" when sometimes stall.
2-adjust the "FALLOFF" ，Low parameter is also very bright, sometimes high parameter is also very bright, I don't understand it, in the end there is FALLOFF.
3-after the press F8, when good and bad, sometimes appears enabled, sometimes for close.
Another problem is:
When I add SKETCHUP plant components, the export model to LRT2016 process, out of the error dialog box, do not know what causes it, seeking to answer?

Single object component download problem
Single object component download problem (Not by "DOWNLOAD ITEM" option to download the case):
1. Open the object dialog box, select and click on the object to start the download, generally in a central location will appear on the screen of "DOWNLOADING..." dialog box, sometimes does not appear after click here to download this "DOWNLOADING..." dialog box, the main reason was blocking the main window, my solution was to move the main window, not in the center position, you can display "DOWNLOADING..." dialog box.
2. Another State is clicked without "DOWNLOADING..." dialog box, but the computer is already running in the background, I get to view network traffic.
3. If multiple objects are continuous download components, each time it after the download is completed, jump out of the window object component, rather than stand still, repeatedly click the "OOO", open object components window to complete the download.

Lights cant be seen
Hi!, I´ve noticed the problem that any of the default lights that are inserted must be increased the POWER by x10000% or more to be seen in daylight interior scenes.
If the scene is switched to night, (because of the previous extreme adjustments) the contrast feels overburned. It requires a lot of tweaking in exposure to get a decent night scene. The ambient light is null so everything is burned or black. And because the camera is constantly autoadusting its exposure when you increase the power of a light the camera readjusts so you end up almost the same. Its common that dark scenes are the most dificult in most programs, but Lumen should aim to make it easier =)
If no adjustment has been made to the lights, when switching to night scene, the general ambiance pretty much works out, the camera gets more sensitive to the moonlight and the super soft artificial lights now find a balance with the autoadjusted camera exposure.
Also, the interface to work with the lights, like selecting, moving or inserting them feels clumsy:
+there is no way to select various lights and adjust the values in one go, i have to go one by one.
+If I want to select a light its hard because to select them I must use the Select arrow and point them, but I cant select them from the Lights list menu because Im in the menu and not on the select button, and from the list its imposible to distinguish which is the light since I can only see their name, but if I select the name the menu takes me to the adjustment of the light qualities (instead of only showing me which light I selected) but if that was not the light I wanted to select I must go baaack to the lights menu and guess again which light it might be.
Its not hard to distinguish from the diferent light types, but when you have 15 of the same spotlights on a living room it becomes a tedious process.

Replacing materials does not retain their saved size
When I replace a material on an object with a material I had previously saved. The new applied material (material 2) recieves the orientation and size of the previous material. The orientation is ok because it orients the material in the correct way like roof shingles, siding walls or woodplanks.
But the size is a problem because the material2 should rule over the scale of the material 1 because thats the reason you are replacing it and the material 2 was previously adjusted with the correct size.
Example: I have a floor with a title ceramic texture that has the size of 30cm but I want to replace it with woodplanks that has a texture size of 150cm (previously adjusted from another file), when I load the wood texture to replace the title ceramic it gets applied with the 30cm size.

Remove all shadows on 1 star
As a recommendation, LRT should remove all shadows when in 1 or 2 star to improve workspeed, it removes them from trees and landscape but the exported models from the CAD aplications still have shadows even on lower settings. This will improve performance on extremely heavy projects.

Revit2016 parking spaces cause LRT to crash export
One of my students broke LumenRT when he tried to export a model that had some vehicle parking spaces created with the Parking spaces tool in Revit. The export launched many ''missing components warnings'' and exported the LumenRT schordingers cube error (when something happens in the export and LRT only shows the scene with a single cube in the middle).
After we removed the parking spaces on Revit the model exported perfectly. The same error happened with some roof beam systems as well.

Material save button does not work
If I adjust a material and use the save material button nothing happens. So I cant save personalized materials
Also If I create a custom folder on the material categories, it gets lost after I reopen LRT

Hidden ''multiple selection button'
The button to activate the multiple selection is hidden and non intuitive to find. It could very well dissapear and remain the checkbox visible on the items all the time (since its a common way to say what is checked is selected) or reduce a little the size and be always visible.
If its removed and you wish to load a presaved tree selection. the small load/save menu could remain at the bottom of the window.
Maybe the selection list expand the window a little in case multiple items are selected, if not it remains small.
Its also strange to have to download every tree. than what are the instalation files for?

Racing clouds
The default cloud speed is too fast, The base setting should be as the average speed they have in reality, if under a certain need someone requires them to move faster the slider is there for those moments, otherwise there should be no need to start slowing them down on every export.
The speed also affects the renderings because its under the most desired certain light conditions that a cloud photobombs the light the moment of taking a render.

Color adjustment
Hi, it would be useful to have in the Colormap in the material editor window a button (that was in the early beta stages of LRT2015, thus the small top empty space) to change the Hue and colorize the base color map, this helped to make small quick color adjustments on a existing texture and not require additional external software for such small changes.
Example> I have a pine wood texture but I want it to look like redwood or cedar, so only a small color adjustment is needed, not another new texture. =)

Revit glasses super bright
Hi!
On some exports from Revit, the glass materials are exported into LumenRT with super bright qualities even if when selected the values on the material appear normal.
It can be fixed easy by selecting the material anr repacing it with any other LRT material, but there is a need to find why its happening.
Regards =)

loading Scene Error
1. Start LRT2016, Select a scene, Open.
2. Obtained results are as follows.
3. Select from the "file"----"open" ---- again select another scene, Open it.
4. Scene loading process ......
5. Render the scene is black (whether you're loading out of the box, or open the custom), the result is the same.

Trial mode
I have asked the question via email and also gotten the response of "The trail mode / not for commercial use is deliberate here, as the version is not yet ready for real commercial usage" however i must ask again, is it not possible to be able to use LRT while testing? I am currently working and testing at same time and would need to either resort to a previous version to keep working or use Lumion or Twinmotion to complete the project. I'd much sooner use the new LRT to work and test at the same time, so i ask if there is away to remove the watermarks while testing?

Edit material issue again
1. after starting the software, import objects (for example, a DAE file), editing the material, editing, save and exit the software.
2. start the software again, open the saved file, drawing objects one of the materials prepared for editing, then the material cannot be edited, because it has become a whole package material of the object, does not separate materials can once again edit work.

Meet a new problem today
Hi Alex,
Meet a new problem today: (See photo description)
Sometimes direct exits the program.
---------------------------------------------------------
There is a recurrent problem:
Material is lost, I usually SU2016 before export, export DAE file first, so that you will have a complete material package to modify and edit the material.
Sometimes, after you export the generated LRT2016 file, where material shown is black (material loss, usually these materials more than 1024 pixels) needs to change
the pixel levels in PS, re-import the new material, a problem can be solved.
Thanks!
Xijin
