- In this video, learn how to create and save custom light fixture models to your model library inside of Twinmotion. This allows you to start creating your own custom collection of light fixture models and Twinmotion lights in your renderings!
In this video, we'll be using SketchUp to model out our light fixtures.

Making a door or gate open in twinmotion

I recently had to create a custom path to animate a small object on a conveyer belt, the problem is the custom paths circles are huge and their size can’t be adjusted. Spent a day trying to place them on the path before giving up and just doing a cheap visual hack. Wonder if you could do a follow up to your previous path tutorial with how u could make multiple objects animate on a custom path ... amazing videos by the way. I learn so much every time with all these tricks like here with the swap object, had never though of that and so much more practical.
Pretty awesome! Thanks. I'm surprised things like this aren't already in the twinmotion library... Yet!
Awesome!!! Really helpful, stops me having to try and centre a light on something!
4 years late, but great video.
The object is snapping to the ceiling (which faces down), hence the flipping 180 degrees every time. In SketchUp, build the light lens facing up, it will flip down when attached to the ceiling. Also, if it's drawn with the origin at the top of the can center instead of the lens, it will cleanly line up with ceiling.
Genius move with swapping light for geometry.
Something I'd like to add is that if you set the axis origin point so that the part of the spotlight that should "stick" to surfaces is considered the bottom side on Sketchup the object will stick to faces on Twinmotion perfectly as opposed to having to rotate every time.
Basically, you should flip the Z axis 180 degrees or just flip the model 180 degrees within Sketchup first.
Yeah - I mentioned that at the end of the video but didn't actually demo it - thanks!
very nice tutorial i like replace object its very easy to use lighting option thank you
Glad you like it!
Excellent sir 👌
Nice video thank you, small tip you should use the orthogonal views + the clipping tool to place your lights more accurately.
Lol - I learned that this morning right after I published this video - that said - replacing SketchUp geometry as shown will probably always be more accurate, so I highly recommend it :)
Hi Justin! Genius about having an object in the centre to replace with a spot light in TM, because positioning especially lights is such a time consuming and mind numbing task. I also wish TM would have tool/command like ‘align’ objects! Thank you for sharing!
Cheers Grethe
Agree - a better align tool would be nice - glad you liked it!
Do you lose the reference object when the lightis put in the user library?
Perhaps using the orthogonal views might make it easier to place the spotlight?
Good tutorial as always 🙂
Thanks - glad you liked it!
Very helpful! Thanks Justin
Happy to help!
I didnt know about Twinmotion but its really awesomeeeeeeeeeee, more awesome than using the default renders from Revit that always makes my rendering blurry.
It is pretty awesome :)
many thanks. It is a very useful tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, Justin!
Glad you liked it! :)
Hello Justin. First off, thanks so much for your videos. THey are most helpful. The replace object workflow works great, however, every time I update my sketchup model, and then update within Twinmotion I have to replace all of the light again because Sketchup is sending them through again. Is there a way to prevent this?
I'm new here but honestly you're the best ✊🏿✊🏿
Lol - thanks!
Hi Justin, setting up material glow to 100 procent, or using a neon material is better solution? Or have these methods the same result?
I use revit, can I create a linear geometry and then replace object with a neon light?
Bravo!!!!!great tip n tricks
Glad you liked it! :)
Very helpful video!
Thank you!
I’ve noticed much of the library custom content needs to be scaled up significantly to get it to match the model. Eg paving materials. However when I check the dimensions the model is the correct scale. Is there something I’m missing?
Big tips! Thank you
You bet!
Hi, can you share a way to make material light bulb in Twinmotion.
Sir how to creat artificial sun in twinmotion.
Sir if I am increase intensity of sun light the my texture and colour are getting blur.
Great tip I like it !
Glad you liked it!
Awesome! Thank you for all your amazing videos! Do you know if there's a way to back up the user library? I have created a lot of assets in it and wondering if I will be able to transfer them to other computers and have a backup copy?
I'm sure there is, but I'm not 100% sure where those files are stored. I was looking for them in the folder, but so far haven't been able to locate them
If your talking about Twinmotion?
Go to Twinmotion Edit menu > Preferences > Settings > Custom paths "Ctrl+P" then set your custom library path to whatever you want. Windows takes care of the backup for me. Hope this helps. I think this was the default "C:\Users\user name\Documents\Twinmotion2019\UserLibrary"
In an office environment place library on the network & change all users to the same custom path. Your network should of course be backed up.

@@killing-time5021What about lumion?
@@vanyasimon What about it? if you want to talk Lumion go to a Lumion video as this thread is about Twinmotion. All the real time renders are great. Enscape being another, the new D5 Render etc etc you would use whatever gives you the end results you like for the price you can afford.
Please make a video on how to resize objects in Twinmotion..
Some objects are not resizing please
What kind of objects?
Like chairs tables ...beds
@@theultimatecabinet Strange they should scale select object use the TAB key to change gizmo operation (or button left of material picker) once on scale either enter number or just slide gizmo.
Or just look here scale is near the end (Hope you don't mind Justin)

hey did it step by step object coming in and moving as separate pieces. please help
got it!

@@TheRenderingEssentials Justin, Hi, I am thinking of switching to a new drawing environment (come away from Sketchup) what are your thoughts on Vectorworks Architect?
great tutorial but it can help me with something, the ceiling is always very clear and it bothers me, is there any way to change this in some configuration?
What do you mean "clear?"
@@TheRenderingEssentials the ceiling is extremely white and shiny in relation to the walls, which by the way is with the same material
Hi everyone. First thanks for your helpful videos. I have a problem at interrior(fully enclosed) render twinmotion. I am using same material on wall, floor and ceiling but it dont be same color. For example i using white color, it being grey on the wall, like blue on floor and being bright white on the ceilling. Can you help me for this problem:)
No idea on this one - are you sure you have the same material in all those areas? Are you sure it doesn't just look white or gray due to the lighting in those particular locations?
@@TheRenderingEssentials Thank you for answer. Yes, i dont change any light settings, using same material but it don't be same on the wall, ceilling and floor in a fully enclosed interrior.
I have this same problem, but the ceiling is always extremely white even though it is the same gray material as the wall, did you manage to resolve this?
When he says whatsup guys with strength ... Great.
Lol - you gotta feel it!
@@TheRenderingEssentials hahahahaha yeah yeah somebody is doing something well it's better to tell him.
How do I keep lights turned on for a daytime render?
Are you using TM2020? Unfortunately, they really changed how lights work between 2019 and 2020. If it is during the daytime, lights do not function well as it is programmed for the sun to create the majority of the lighting, even in a room with no windows. You can type in really high values for your lights, much higher than the slider will give you. Or you can make it night time. I've messed around a lot with TM2020 but I keep going back to TM2019 due to the lighting and I have imports that fail in 2020 but are successfully imported in 2019.
@@chazp3496 TM2020, yes. So there's actually no option except make it night time? Thanks for the response :) I was considering buying the 2020 license - maybe I should hold off on a 2021 update instead haha
Twinmotion is constantly crashing on my computer. Does it happen with anyone else?
People seem to be experiencing this more in the 2020 version. Do you have any kind of VR app installed on your PC, like Steam or Oculus? I get conflicts with those and have to disable them to keep Twinmotion from crashing
@@TheRenderingEssentials I don't! And I actually use Twinmotion with other softwares closed due to this crashing issue
