First of all excuse my poor english…
After testing and old Archviz EA2 project in Preview version, all I can say is that you are doing an amazing job.
We spend an incredible amount of time dealing with different problems in early access and after opening the level in Preview version the improvement is incredible.
Preview is far from perfect but it is great to see this huge evolution.
We tested unreal 5 just for archviz videos with RTX3090 and framerate was not taken in account.
All we wanted to know was if Lumen could be used for archviz instead of baking… It´s close, pretty close.
Hit lightning for reflections was not working properly so we had to use surface cache.
GI is much better in Preview.
Reflections and translucent materials need some more work, as we all know, but it´s fair to say that you are changing the game and making a lot of lifes easier. At least mine.
We all want a final product as soon as possible and most times we forget to give you the credit you desserve for this amazing software.
Reflections fixed / improved means no more baking for us, with little to no noticeable quality difference.
With Lumen we can show our clients the evolution of our designs with a great quality and 10 times faster than baking light.
Thanks for your work .
