Lumion® LiveSync® for Autodesk® Revit®
Digitally signed app
Description
IMPORTANT: Do you need help? Please contact us via our support page: https://support.lumion.com
Always get a real-time view of your Autodesk® Revit® 3D model in Lumion’s breathtaking, full context environments with LiveSync for Revit.
The free Lumion LiveSync plugin lets you set up a simultaneous, real-time connection between your 3D model in Revit and Lumion 10.3. Change the model’s shape in Revit to test a modified design, and you’ll instantly see the model updated in Lumion so you can view it with accurate lighting and shadow, surrounding contexts such as urban neighborhoods or rural settings, and beautiful, realistic materials.
Lumion LiveSync for Revit includes:
- Realtime model synchronization between Revit and Lumion
- Camera synchronization between Revit and Lumion
- The ability to add and save Lumion’s beautiful materials to your LiveSync project
- Real-time materials synchronization and visualization
- Automatic model importing into Lumion (no need to separately import a model)
- Collada (*.dae) files exporter
everyone should have a try, pretty amazed.
Export a 3d view as FBX file. Lumion will still recognize the materials.

用软件导出dae格式后模型丢失再鼎
me parece ofensivo lo que dice usted
Even though I have download the latest version but still I'm facing the issue " you need 8.3 or newer version for livesync" but I have already the latest version.
Plz help to solve this issue.
Thanks
Hi, There are three components that are required to run the LiveSync connection: 1. Revit 2. the Lumion plugin (downloaded from here which ensures a connection) 3. Lumion (the main application) The role of the plugin is to seamlessly transfer the information from the CAD software to Lumion. However, although the plugin is free, the main application can be obtained as a trial, a student version, or a commercial version. If you need any more assistance, please reach out to our support team here: https://support.lumion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042039073
If you don't have downloaded file of lumion 11 setup it does not works.
We downloaded and installed the 'free' Lumion add-in. (Revit 2023) when we pressed the play button a digi box appeared stating could not run in this version and must upgrade. Fine, clicked on it but then it takes you to the Lumion home page which is a paid sub...so Free is very misleading.

Great!!!
I really want to like this plugin, it has so much potential, but it crashes Revit unexpectedly with no opportunity to save a recovery file. Lost work is very frustrating.
I am running v 3.60.542. I had this issue a year or so ago too, but I stopped using Livesync because of it. I recently started using it again, but it still crashes.
I've been using Revit 2024 and when opening Lumion that syncs my Revit, it keeps going back to upgrading the version, what may be the problem here?
Try close your Lumion first, then you install syncs, to me works
Suban el Plugin para la versión revit 2024, por favor
yep
Thanks
exelente
es una pagina, super recomendada
aqui dice que es gratis... en verdad? por que quisiera descargarlo pero es muy caro.
Hi autodesk , looking for the Act-3DBVLumionLiveSyncforAutodeskRevit_3.60.540.
Where is it possible to find it ?

Hi.
I have circular spaces in my project, in revit it looks smooth round without edges, but when ı throw it to the lumıon to render, the polygon numbers decrease and look diagonal. Is there a solution?
I already set the parameter "smoothing surface" on high but the results is still bad.
If I export with fbx it works and the curve profiles are smooth.
What can I do?
Thanks in advance
maximize the smoothens on lumion setting
I dont know ıf ıts too late but try ımrovıng the smoothness from revıt not lumıon
is it possible to get the updated version for revit 2023?
we need this tools for revit 2023
just realized as well that Revit 2023 doesn't allow this plug in
Urgently please
Hello, I have Revit 2021 student version, when trying to open Lumion its advisng I need to have Lumion 8.3? Is there not a version of Lumion that will work with Trvit 2021?
Hi Marlena Thanks for asking. You can use LiveSync For Revit with student editions of Revit. Please contact Lumion Technical Support to assist (see links top right or at top of the product description).
Plugin / extension working with older version of Revit 2015 : Brilliant ! (Lumion 11)
Thank you for thinking of older versions of Revit 2015 (the best version ever) !
You're welcome :).
It says I need Lumion 8.3 or newer to start livesync
Hi Rev_Adv_Jesse De_Jong If not done so, please contact Lumion Technical Support to assist (see links top right or at top of the product description).
i need 8.3
Na hora de salvar o arquivo não aparece algumas opcões como por exemplo salvar cenas, salvar modeloes e cenas... E depois do salvamento não é possivel abrir o arquivo mais. Esse é o unico problema que aparece, fora isso esse software é otimo!
i have lumion 2021. i download it when i click the button to start it, it says you need to download newer version 8.3. what should i do now?
i have the same problem
Yeah I keep getting the same message too
same issue.
revit 2017 sürümü ile senkronize edilecek eklentiyi bulamıyorum.
Esse plugin é compatível com o lumion6 ?
gerçekten harika bir eklenti teşekkürler Lumion !!!!
You created an amazing platform that works perfectly with Revit.
My only critic is regarding the nagivational controls/interface. You should match or add an option to match Revit's
I work with revit 2019 and this application asks for a password and username
how you downlod it ?

Estaba buscando en diferentes páginas y hay muchas personas que tienen el mismo problema.

I was using Lumion LiveSync for a while and everything worked perfectly, but this week i've reinstalled Revit 2020 and Lumion LiveSync. After that, every attempt to export a collada file from any Revit model ended up in the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error message. I've tried to reinstall Revit, Lumion, LiveSync, but the issue perssits.

hola, pudiste resolverlo? a mi me pasa lo mismo
he estado mirando y hay muchas personas con el mismo problema, esta ocurriendo desde el 12 de junio, ellos hicieron una actualización el 11 de junio y al parecer dañaron el plugin. yo les escribí directamente al correo de lumion y me respondieron que actualizara revit, pero ese no es el problema, el problema es este plugin que lo dañaron actualizando. les volví a a enviar un correo mostrando todas las quejas que hay al respecto a ver si nos solucionan el problema. por el momento la solución temporal que encontré fue exportar de revit a 3dmax y de 3dmax a lumion. si me responden algo les aviso

Hola. existe livesync de lumion pero para 3d max? gracias
Hi Guy Kandel, thanks for your interest in a plug-in for 3ds Max. That does not yet exist but thanks for the suggestion.
Livesync in Lumion 10 is most of the time not working and I have to reload the Lumion model to make it working again. It did't happened in Lumion 8 & 9 version. Hopefully this issue can be fix because it is a big wasting of time, especially when you work on multi million dollar projects!
Hi Alessandro, that's not a known issue. As this is meant to be for reviews rather than technical support, we'd encourage you to click on the link below to contact us as the Lumion Support Center, so that we can assist you with your problem. Thanks in advance..https://support.lumion.com
Just downloaded this app and it's not working out too good so far. I turned livesync on and placed the model from Revit to Lumion. When I move/change elements in my Revit "Rendering Model", it changes in Lumion, which is good. BUT, my Revit "Rendering Model" has other Revit models linked to it. Sometimes I need to modify elements in those linked models, so I do that. Then I reload links in the "Rendering Model" so those changes reflect, which then automatically updates in Lumion. This works, but when I do that step ALL the material changes I've made in Lumion dissappear and the Revit model materials are back. I am not renaming any materials in Revit anymore, so I don't know why it would erase all material changes I made in Lumion. This issue is defeating the purpose of using LiveSync. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Hello, I´m a student using the student license of Lumion 9.5 and the Revit 2020 student license, the LiveSync that I have instaled is the 3.60.530.
I wonder why I can't use the Livesync, whenever I push the button this message sow up "Lumion LiveSync- Host file hacked, Live Synk will not work on your computer".
Thank you!
Hi Francisco, the first advice I'd like to give you is to never install cracked versions of Lumion as they prevent the legal version of Lumion from working correctly. As this is meant to be for reviews rather than technical support, we'd encourage you to click on the link below to contact us as the Lumion Support Center, so that we can help you clean up the mess that the cracked version of Lumion has made on your computer: https://support.lumion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003490033
Is Lumion 10 supported? as when i try & run LiveSync with 10 its says no can do, yet on lumions website its says its supported?
Sorry to hear that, David. We already submitted a new version of the plug-in to the Autodesk App Store but it can take a while before it's approved. In the meantime, please download the latest version directly from our Support Center: Download Lumion LiveSync for Revit: https://support.lumion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007538494 For future reference, we'd be grateful if you could please request support via the Lumion Support Center. Thanks in advance.
Hi David, Please update plugin to the newest version 3.60 to work with Lumion 10.
Thank you Act 3D Appreciate the prompt reply. Is there a way to delete my comments/ here do you know? as i'd like to remove this as i see now i asked my question in the wrong place.

Thanks
Hi Abrar Iqbal, you will need Lumion 8.3 (or newer) and Revit 2015 (or newer) to be able to use the LiveSync function in Revit. Regarding SketchUp, you can see which versions that are supported in section 2 in this article: https://support.lumion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007502894-Download-Lumion-LiveSync-for-SketchUp For future reference, we'd be grateful if you could please request support via the Lumion Support Center. Thanks in advance.

Hi Min Li, you will need Lumion 8.3 (or newer) and Revit 2015 (or newer) to be able to use the LiveSync function. For future reference, we'd be grateful if you could please request support via the Lumion Support Center. Thanks in advance.
Any chance we can have the plugin work on Revit LT 2020?
I don't see why this wouldn't be possible.
We use Revit for modeling toposurfaces and massing, and the full fersion of Revit costs too much to be used just as a massing and site editor in our case.
Hi Sergiu, Revit 2020 is already fully supported. However, Revit LT only has limited support and you have to export your model via .DWG format. This is a technical limitation. Sorry about the inconvenience.
hi, when i want to play lumion says :host file hacked....what shoud i do ?
i get the same error. what should i do? i have revit 2019 latest update.
You should stop using a cracked version of Lumion. :|
liveSync for revit 2019
liveSync for revit 2020 ?
Hi there, Revit 2020 is fully supported if you use the latest version of our plug-in.
Is there any updates for revit 2020 ?
Yes, Revit 2020 is fully supported if you use the latest version of our plug-in.
Yes, already done.. Thank you
Lumion is incredible! Waiting for the 2020 revit app version :)
Thanks for the kind words. :) Revit 2020 is fully supported if you use the latest version of our plug-in.

Hello there I have that same problem if you solve please please send me thanks
Same problem, did u figured it out?
Do the previous versions of lumion livesync work for the newest version of revit? For example, does livesync 2.03 work for revit 2019?
Hi Adnan, please see section 1 and 3 in this article: https://support.lumion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007538494
hi,
im a beginner who use live sync of lumion ver 3.5 in revit 2018, but in my case my live sync function didnt work out on lumion 8, but it asked to use a minimum 8.3 of lumion
so, does it mean live sync only can use in lumion 8.3 and above?
Hi Hepi, Yes, LiveSync works with Lumion 8.3 and above. But you can still use Collada exporter from add-in.
Hi. I have an bump texture in my model, but when I exported there is no bump texture on Textures folder. I am using Revit 2017. How can i export bump texture. Thanks

Hey Artur, From the links below, I see you've released the source to the collada export before. However, the source is kind of outdated now. Is there any chance you'll release the source again or some api? I want to export collada from revit programmatically without automating the lumion UI.

Hi Kevin, unfortunately the source is closed, and we are not going to release it. The source you indicated is not a full exporter but just minimal sample code to reproduce and analyse the issuea we were working on with Jeremy some time ago. Good luck with your exporter!
Hi there, How do families and model in place components get transfer to lumion. Because currently the file that gets imported has families and model in place mass missing.
Hi Semeli, please request help at the Lumion Support Center: https://forum.lumion.com Thanks in advance.
Hi, I've used this software to export Revit files to Google Earth and I wanted to know if there was an option to preserve linework? As is it displays only with rendered material but not "edges" making it difficult to read. Any tips?
Hi Cody, it's not possible to export linework (and any other 2D elements) from Revit. However, if you export the Revit model to SketchUp, you can export the edges to Lumion via .DAE format. If you encounter any other problems, please post your question at the Lumion Support Center, so we can assist you further: https://forum.lumion.com Thanks in advance.
No complaints with this app. And Lumion itself is a great piece of software too. Lots of new features in version 6, thanks!
works perfect everything material,objects thanks
The material settings are not exported!
