    Interesting case of life imitating art.

    Was there a roof on the house where the actual 

    photograph was taken? ;)  It looks like we have 

    light bleeding between the cabinet crown moldings

    and the ceiling. Maybe Chief is on to something?

     

     

     

     

     

     

      That couldn't be caulking, could it ... :mellow:

    If I understand your question correctly- I haven't actually tried it myself, but I think you can just add the normal map back in to the texture once you're in Lumion.  I don't know of any export file type that Chief does that would retain the normal maps when exported.

     

      Dont have Lumion open right now, but I believe you can create a normal map  for the Chief texture in  Lumion or choose a texture from Lum lib

    Best 3D modeling software to use with CA Software for the price

    There have been many discussions in the past concerning this, might be worth searching the forum.

     

    Personally, if you are satisfied with the renderings you posted, with the exception of the bathroom, I would suggest that it might be worth your while to spend a bit more time with the X10 PBR and save the expense and time learning a new program.

    With your current hardware, these would render in about 5 seconds.

     

    To get something such as your bathroom example is a whole new ballgame and would require exceptional skill to obtain something close to that. I took a closer look at that and it looks to me as if it is an actual photograph, not a rendering.

      I agree that bathroom is a photograph; not a rendering ..

     

    Dead giveaway is the uneven grout joints in tile which can be sen by zooming in
