Update 2 is a free update for all users but some content will be available in a shop. Like the trees etc You can read the details on the website.

We will have type in for all sliders, tone mapping and many other improvements that are free.

in-app purchase like app store?
would be fantastic!

inside Lumion I could see the icon preview or watch mini videos, choose the library I want to purchase...credit card...all inside Lumion...why not?

For example would be fantastic to download the new 3d libraries and use it inside Lumion but they will have a sort of red cage (bounding box), you could be the first to implement this feature in 3d objects. After the purchase the cage will disappear.

Immagine After Effects demo plugins, they work free but with a red cross.

Also note there's a BIG difference between "update 2" and "version 2".
  • Update 2 is a free update for users of Lumion 1.0 and will have a separate plug-in store for specialized features.
  • Version 2 will be Lumion 2.0 which is a complete new version. The new version will be available for existing customers trough an upgrade offer which allows you to get version 2.0 for a much reduced fee.

Fantastic, we are happy to hear that things are progressing.  The upcoming software update looks great.  Thinking with the spring sale i might pick a copy up for my personal use instead of using the companies.  Great job and keep it up.

We probably have around 4 or 5 plugin packs and will make 1 free to choice is the current idea. We plan to make the pack more a program. So if you get the foliage pack all new trees we create will be available to you. Same goes for animation and water pack etc. Remember that all of this is in the idea phase. Since we add new content to a pack we will try to make all packs really attractive if you need them and put a similar amount of time/bought content in each pack.

As far as prices go I would like some feedback from users.

For example I'll list the current plugin packs which we might create and keep adding content to:

Foliage pack:
- the pollen/flies/butterflies etc
- many new trees (100+)
- planned high quality trees

Character pack:
- 100+ 2D silhouettes
- 50+ 3D silhouettes (shine trough white)
- new non animating models
- planned sitting animating models

Water pack:
- Ocean
- Falling water (waterfalls. slides etc)
- Fountain particle system (50 presets but adjustable)

Animation pack:
- movie effects to trigger animation
- more control over animations of models
- importable animations
- we are thinking of also allowing our advanced character model import using pointclouds

Movie effect pack:
- really good depth of field
- post processors for cartoon look edge rendering etc
- planned effects

Special effects pack:
- Smoke (30 presets but adjustable)
- Fire
- Fog
- etc

Sound pack:
- 3d placeable sounds
- including the 50 euro per client ACC license for sound in mp4
- ability to include sound under a movie

Not all these packs might be released in update 2 and they might all change and we might change our minds completely. However I still would like your ideas on what would be acceptable pricing for them. Remember you get 1 of the packs for free.

Please don't react if you can only say 'everything for free'. Some serious reactions are highly appreciated.

a good price could be 99,00€ for each pack

599,00 for all bundled packs
