Thanks for the wonderful intro. I have been a Lumion user for years, but I am starting a new job and the firm uses Twinmotion. This video has made me less nervous.
Jason, this is superb tuition at it's best. Thank you! I've been looking for the best way in to creating fully rendered animations of my SU models and this is it! I'll look forward to following your complete Twinmotion program with great interest!
Thanks Justin - Love using Twinmotion We provide VR experiences for every client so have a fine balance of partial rendering and fine renderings. Hints and tips like yours really help.
I'm so happy that twinmotion is free for a while now because I use MacBook pro and I was really searching for a software which can make animation video of 3d like lumion and your video is on point and everything is really clear and easy to understand.
What I like about TM is you can bring your static visuals to life easily with animation and movement with rain, cars, wind blown trees, people or animals really easily.
I just downloaded it for free and really loved the way you explained everything in detail. Not rushed or anything..on to the next tutorial. Good job and thanks.
i have ADD so its really hard for me to stay focused through any type of studies. you explain things so weel ! im finding it super easy to learn from you thank you so much!
Thank you very much! This is so useful to a complete beginner in Twinmotion like me! I have Vray with my Sketchup, can I also use Twinmotion from time to time, when I have Vray installed already?
I know this isn't a comparison video but it seems to me. That Enscape might look better when it come to showing off the details in finishes/material. Where as Twinmotion might have a better flow showing off an entire model
At this point in time, I would have to agree with your statement. Since I just heard about this from Justin yesterday I have to believe that we just don't know enough about it to make that final judgement. For a program that ran $1,900 usd, there has to be a way to make things look more realistic. Time will tell.
It's not really fair to compare this video to anything - I literally did a quick export without doing anything with the materials, lighting, or anything else. Like most rendering programs, the final render has everything to do with getting everything set up properly. Based solely on the images on their website, as well as some knowledge of Unreal Engine, this program has the capacity for great things
Hello Twinmotion Master I'm looking for 2 tips: 1) I use a 3DSmax > FBX converter When I import the converted object or character, it does not stand straight in the axis but lying down. a) do you know why? b) What is the solution to put it straight and keep it straight in the user library for example? 2) do you know the keyboard shortcut for: Isolate an element. PS: I'm always looking for themed 3D characters for exchanges: Event / Restaurant / Corporate Thanks
Justin you rock! Thank you for this. But as I have told you before, you are feeding my addiction! First Enscape, then Unreal Studio and NOW - Twinmotion! Wow!
Could I visualize my apartment and fill it with furniture how I would like it to look? How would I go about this? It seems to me I would first need a CAD file of the basic apartment dimemetions right? Or is that possible within Twinmotion?
Justin, many thanks for these great tutorials on Twinmotion - I am an Architect based in Ireland and I am using TM mostly for still life renders, was wondering if there is a way to make materials look a little more photo real, landscape etc look great but building finishes could look better.
Selecting high quality textures and making sure you load the maps in would be my first piece of advice. Beyond that, you'd have to define "look better" and what you don't like about them - the cause for that could vary widely - thanks
I've never used ArchiCAD, but in general I think it's going to work in much the same way. If you see any differences between what I'm doing and what you're having to do, let me know :)
I'm not taking a side in this fight - both are powerful and create great images, but both are going to have their plusses and minuses as well, same as any other software
@@TheRenderingEssentials come on justin. Just say it.. take a side.. Okay if they give you to choose. Which one would you rather work with.. justin, justin, justin, justin, no pressure.. lol. Fair enough.. Cheers
Great teacher. Ty. Can we have sterioscopic view or left right eye output for 2 different projector so that we can use that output for passive 3d polarized glasses. Plz help. OrIS THERE ANY VIEW FOR STERIOSCOPIC PROTECTOR IN UE4
Hè Justin, cool video's! Thanks a lot. Can you do a video about how tot render twinmotion projects in irender gpu farm? The textures from imported objects is missing when i try this. Thanks!
All your videos are amazing. Never too little or too much information. Question though - and maybe I am jumping the gun before looking at the next video, but I am all about Special Events, so... I saw the light panel and the ability to control the intensity of your lights, but what about colour? Events for the most part use some very intense colours and gobos, can the colour be adjusted?
@@TheRenderingEssentials Hi. I don't see any video rendering resolution options. Seems to only render in 1080p and not in 4K. Do you know if there are higher export resolution options on the app?
I'm always learning from. I like your work.could you please make video about light and weather. I'm not understand about weather and light.when i make export picture.its not looking good.i need settings about weather.Thanks.
Very nice rendering in minutes, thanks, 1 question please i work with autocad software, is it possible to import it in twinmotion? because in the tutorial from the start I've notice there's no option for dwg.
thank you for this series, can you recommend a PC that will be great for now and near future using this software and Lumion. I use Revit and would like to get into this real time rendering
twinmotionhelp.epicgames.com/s/article/TwinMotion-System-Requirements?language=en_US; in this link you can find the minimum specs required. As you can see, you need a pretty powerful PC if you want a good experience with no issues at all.
Hey there, could you please say how is this useful with UE4? Can we import our levels from UE4 and create the renders in Twinmotion? I honestly don't get if that would be the use for ue4 users.
Hello!! great tutorials. Have a macbook pro and want to upgrade my laptop to a windows system. I want to use ENSCAPE and Lumion , wich one you recomend me?
Can you please show us how to use a mouse to navigate in Twinmotion? I am new to Twinmotion and I find it very difficult to move, pan, and tilt the 3D object. All that's working is zooming using the middle mouse button. Thanks.
Hi, If we try to render some Pipe work with Insualtion, Insulation and Pipe fittings are coming in a single material. Why we are not able to use separate material for pipe fittings and Insulation?.
I am not able to apply a different material. When applying to Pipe insulation Automatically fill it with Pipe fittings. I emailed you that Fbx file, Please review it and let me know. thanks
I don't know the answer to this one - I don't believe so, but I think you should either be able to import the Rhino file directly or export it from Rhino to another format, like FBX, and import that
While opening a file in twinmotion, there are three options (keep hierarchy, or collapse by material or collapse all) which one should I go? Please help.... I want to know their uses too...
I can't seem to move closer to the model in twinmotion...the W,S,A,D or Q,E doesn't work. Do I need to press something to enable these keys on my keyboard?
Congratulations for the tutorial. I am an architect working on Mac computers for a long time in Cyprus. I use vectorworks and sketchup in a very good level. My Mac is an old one so I am thinking of buying a new imac27 inch. Do you think this new iMac will be a good engine to install the free twinmotion and will it be ok to work fluently on it in terms of processor, memory etc....?

hey man, great video! do you know how can i ajust my viewport? im using a 21:9 aspect ratio monitor and after rendering one image the viewport stays croped (with black bars). Any ideas?
@@TheRenderingEssentials Yes, I compared equivalent scenes. Also the performance seems to be better (talking about FPS) in twinmotion. However in the absolute quality department of the animation, vegetation and lighting, I think lumion is still far ahead in the realism level it can achieve. Even trying to get the same scene in both programs, lumion vegetation and lighting seems to have a noticiable better quality (perhaps my limited twinmotion knowledge lead to this conclusion :/ idk ). I think that maybe you could try to make a video about it Justin, since you have a really good lumion knowledge and experience; to see if it is posible to use twinmotion to get the same photorealism render result. Thanks for keep making this great videos, and helping us improve our work.
Since you specialized in rendering. I'll advice you to try Blender-Cycles renderer. It's has more realistic rendering than Twinmotion( my personal opinion), and it's free.
It might be more realistic, but there's also more setup and technical knowledge required. You can get better results with Vray as well, but the level of knowledge and setup required can be prohibitive for some users.
@@TheRenderingEssentials I guess you are talking about ease of use. In that case, I believe Twinmotion is used mostly for visualization rather than movie making.
Yeah - totally agree - Twinmotion is really good for walkthrough videos, videos with animations of objects along paths, cars, etc. If you're trying to create some kind of a 3D movie with particle effects, etc, it's not going to be the best fit. It's a visualization program for sure
Following you clear instructions but s soon as I open the material demo it flares out completely to white - I can still see the 'light' icons but after a minute it just crashes completely? Anyone have any ideas who to resolve this?
Hi everyone! Let me know what you think about Twinmotion in the comments below! More tutorials coming soon!
Finally!!!! Thanks @ Justin for the video.
BTW, Why don't you have fast Internet connection ? As a youtuber you should've!!
Sorely needed. Here as a Unreal game dev, trying to figure out how to integrate the two. Twin motion's youtube didn't have a tutorial playlist.
Is very good rendering software and I like it so much.
But at anytime I render videos with twinmotion I lost all sound I add to my scenes can someone help me about it?
Hello
#therenderingessentials
is twinmotion really free , like unreal ? For ever?
Should I go back to blender and unreal engin
I have yet to start experimenting with this program, but this video was probably more helpful than my entire bachelor's degree, cheers!
Well, glad it helped!
It is my first day with twinmotion and I thank you for the clear explanation of basic things! ♥
Awesome - glad it helped!
The good thing about Twinmotion is that it doesn't need huge upgrade for your PC specs, unlike Lumion.
That's true
Your video was "EXACTLY" what I was looking for! You unpacked TwinMotion perfectly. Thank You!

Hello Twinmotion Master
I'm looking for 2 tips:
1) I use a 3DSmax > FBX converter
When I import the converted object or character, it does not stand straight in the axis but lying down.
a) do you know why?
b) What is the solution to put it straight and keep it straight in the user library for example?
2) do you know the keyboard shortcut for: Isolate an element.

Thanks - it's a good one!
Way better than lumion. Thats SEXY!
