I want to learn about Relative and absolute position. My imported SketchUp model is flying in the sky I know how to set it on the land with xyz but all the trees and plants don't want to follow. I am afraid some relative or absolute position blocks them. How can I change that at stage this late in a project? My building is finished all my parks and ponds are done I his want them all touching ground in Lumion 10 not floating in the air at the same time and not divide into several entities groups when I start using xyz. Can anyone help.?

The things you do using V-Ray for SketchUp won't translate to what you want to do in Lumion. You might want to check out our Lumion course to understand the workflow for rendering your SketchUp models in Lumion. The course is part of our Video Course Library.

Does the quality of your lumion renders depend on the type of graphics card you have. I have an nvidia gtx 1050 ti 4GB. lumion shows that it meets the minimum system requirements.

It will slow down your workflow however U can change the settings to minimum quality of editing only , but the final render is always going to be high .

No: As long as your computer meets the minimum specs to run Lumion it can create the same quality renderings as a much more powerful computer. It will just take longer for your computer to create the renderings.

When picking the best PC for rendering, as you've seen, it can be a bit complicated. And while I don't have a single computer that I can quickly point you to, I can tell you how to quickly see whether the components in a computer you are looking at will perform well for 3D rendering. But first, to take a step back, the two main things will be the CPU and the GPU (a new computer will be good on all other requirements... but the speed and memory of the CPU and GPU are where the rendering performance comes from. Lumion has a good article to help you: lumion.com/blog/lumion-computer-advice-for-faster-3d-rendering.html If you look at a computer, take note of what the CPU and the GPU are. Then you can compare them to these websites to see how their performance stacks up: PassMark GPU scores: www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html Again, you don't need to know what G3D means... the higher the score the better. And what's nice is that you can see the price of that GPU to the right, so you can look for ones that rank high but are more affordable, and then seek out a computer that perhaps has that hardware inside (as a way to whittle down what computers you consider). PassMark CPU scores: www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html Same idea, only for the CPUs.
