I got this email this morning. Can anyone else confirm this is real? I would think I would see some announcement here but I don't.

Yes it is real and we will announce all information early next week but we are polishing the information.

Basic users already got this offer which is part of the changes.

Does that mean that for those who already have 2.1.4 Ultimate, we will have to buy plug-in to benefit from the 2.2 version at 100%.

No there are no plugins anymore with 2.2.

So also no plugins for Ultimate. There will be a new top product though. But with 2.2 Ultimate gets a mayor update as well. Not smaller because of the new product we will introduce.

We polished all our plans with the beta group users and had many polls on naming pricing and branding. We are now polishing all information for release early next week.

Yes, we will have a very good offer for all current Ultimate users. Nobody is forced to upgrade of course. But the new version has a few mayor features.

I suppose these new major features won´t be disclosed until the 2.2 version is released??

btw, just some english correction here (and please, if you someone is a native english speaker here, give us your input):

mayor : the politician of the executive branch that governs a city/town

major: the antonym of MINOR... "main", "most", "most important", etc. So my guess is that the correct would be "major new features"?


ps: not trying to be a pain in the ass here, but I got myself in doubt when I read "mayor new features", so I wrote that in hope some native english speaker can clarify this.

The biggest feature of Lumion 2.2 new version is that we will have export into 1 file and that you can double click that file and use it as a realtime presentation to your customers. The customer only needs to install the new Lumion Free 2.2 and will be able to walk through your scene without a logo.

English corrections are always welcome my english is probably even worse then other members of the team since I am horrible at languages :P

I make even more mistakes in my native language though.

Hope that Lumion will request a reasonable price for Ultimate version users.
It's good to see that basic version owners can upgrade to Ultimate with a 80% discount which makes me wish i purchased basic version :'(
For that reason, Act-3D should announce a real good offer for current ultimate version users :)

So, what will be the upgrade path for Ultimate 1 users?
Any love for those of us who jumped early both in the Lumion 1 and Lumion 1 Ultimate bandwagon?

In half an hour I'll go on vacation to the beach and wanted to stay away from the Internet... Looks like I'll have to get online anyway!

The upgrade price is a 66% discount to go from Ultimate to the new top version. Also the prices for upgrading to 3.0 are cheaper.

We will probably have a 2.3 release first which we already have some major features for. And at the end of the year we hope to have 3.0 ready.

Ultimate 1 users can upgrade to Ultimate 2 and then also get this 66% discount to go to the new top version.

Hi Ferry, they announced a new update of Lumion.
The new 2.2, with a discount of 66%, for which we Lumion Ultimate.
Is that so?.
If true, I would like you to be a bit more concrete with the price of the upgrade and the new features of the new Lumion 2.2.
In my case, the new investment will be conditioned by the new features of the program and particularly improvements in the modeling field, if you have them, plus the necessary adjustments in the advanced animation. I am very proud of Lumion and current results.

In Spain we are with a very strong crisis, I think that all Europe knows, is this poem that I would like us more specifically informases prices and general characteristics of the new version.

Forgive my impatience, but if you proclaim a new update, we find the beginning of a new urgent project and uncertainty to do with the current version or the new one next week.

Regards, Severino.

NOTE: I regret not being able to participate more in the forum and present some of our recent work, but our customers are government, which do not allow the publication of his works.

We are finalizing all pages so I can't post uncertain information here. And we would have wished the whole world was in an economic boom of course.
