Import Megascans Textures into Lumion with One Click - Quixel Bridge Tutorial

[@NunoSilva3d]

Are you using Quixel Bridge and their custom exports?

[@ZAKarchitects]

Advanced materials based on quixel library for lumion course as a new project module will be great 👌🏼

[@paulspaltman2340]

Hi Nuno, thanks for this tutorial. I was trying to do the same workflow for the decals. So I added the Opacity map to the Albedo map in the RGBa slot. When I exported this I got 2 separate files: the Albedo and the Opacity instead of 1 file with a alpha channel. Am I missing something?

@@paulspaltman2340 which Lumion version are you using?

[@NunoSilva3d]

@@paulspaltman2340 I was testing it, and noticed that for Decals is not working. I even setup the Custom Exports on the Decals section, and didn't work either. Maybe you can also report a bug, to see if it gets fixed. :)

Hello Nuno, in your older megascan video you used both the roughness in the albedp and glossiness in the noram for the studded leather, please explain.

[@alkanmakinabakan1782]

Well done!

[@izoyt]

great tips, thnx. which lumion versions supports importing this?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Anything from Lumion 8 at least should work.

[@pengu1n393]

I tried comparing the Photoshop method versus the Quixel Bridge Export, but I think the PS method is more accurate in gloss effect? I tried it in your previous tutorial with the Leather Material with buttons.

[@NunoSilva3d]

I think on that tutorial in the video I gave wrong information. I added a pin comment about it. You should use only one option, either the Gloss map or the Roughness map. Not both. They are the same map, only inverted. Some engines use Gloss, others Roughness.

[@pengu1n393]

@@NunoSilva3d If I only use roughness map on Albedo, its too shiny using QBE. Then I tried using both Albedo+Roughness and Normal+Gloss, the glossiness of the Leather is less glossy. But it is glossier than the Photoshop Method. I dont know if I did something wrong. Or maybe try it for yourself if you have time. 👌

[@maxinteriors]

Good job bro.

[@NunoSilva3d]

Thanks!

[@maxinteriors]

I was wondering how i can solve imported textures due lumion's unsatifying material liberary but finally Nuno Silva saved me. Grazie again and again.@@NunoSilva3d

[@Arkistic_Studio]

Nice, i can see random grass did you use another surface layer underneath with 3d grass in it?

[@antoniodelamora7301]

I have the same doubt

[@NunoSilva3d]

Yes.

[@ozanmehmetsahin3448]

Thanks a lot man!! I have a quick question, even though I uploaded the material set as TGA file, textures seems very transparent in the scene and i couldn't find Texture alpha settings on the lumion. Is it because I am using the student version? Thnxxx

[@eslammagdy1511]

thx for great content .. when i setup bridge which export target i use 3d max - unreal - custom disk export ( lumion is not an option ) ?

[@chelseyharrold4652]

I would like more info on this as well. Thanks @NunoSilva3d !

[@shiroF5]

Hi Nuno, that's was great tutorial. I love it! Anyway, would you like to show us, how to make terrain/relief like that? I mean that model. I always wondering, how to make it looks so smooth like that..that's amazing! Thank you so much ... 🙏

[@NunoSilva3d]

Hi! Sure, but I'm not so sure if I understood your question, you mean the terrain you see on the intro video?

[@shiroF5]

​@@NunoSilva3d yeah that's right..how you make terrain on intro video?

[@최준영-l3p2q]

I'm curious about the effect value used in the image of the final result. If it's difficult to tell you the effect value, I'd like to know what kind of effect was used.

[@FrostyDrums]

Nuno, thanks for this video. Would these export settings be the same for D5 and Twinmotion? Or would there be any modifications? Thanks in advance!

[@medhatkhaleel]

Hi Nuno, This is great as usual! but we do not need this for Lumion 12, do we?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Thank you! No, that's why in the beginning I said it's for users who didn't upgrade yet. :)

[@mainormarroquin4658]

nice bro really nice

hey nuno! big fan, ive learned a lot with your channel. Could you do an update of this process using Lumion 12. thanks!!

Hey Nuno, I'm using this method by following your steps in the video but i keep getting an error when I try to export from Bridge. Am i doing something wrong?

[@Thirdbornentertainment]

is there a way to import an entire pre-built environment? There is a renders button but it' doesn't seem to do anything.

[@stellabarison495]

Good morning Nuno perfect video I have Quixel Bridge I used it but this video gives me an oportunity to add directly to the maps in Lumion, I have lumion 9.3 do you have a class in this version. Thank you very much

[@NunoSilva3d]

Thank you! Yes, this method also works for Lumion 9.3. The idea for this video is to help people with other Lumion versions then the Lumion 12. :)

[@demirhancelebi8543]

Thanks for in video, 👍👍👍👍

[@NunoSilva3d]

You're welcome!

[@PAULOSANTOS-gx4jv]

hi Nuno, do this workflow change with he new L23?

[@NunoSilva3d]

You probably need to select the roughness and reflection now.

[@sirousghaffari9556]

for using this app we should create pro account?

[@NunoSilva3d]

You need to create an account. There are some free assets and if you are using it only with Unreal Engine I believe it's free.

[@x4designs]

2.7-got it.

[@wayneseymour1]

what version of bridge are you using mine does not have RGBA as a format. selection

[@Lewhateverr]

Came to comments looking for this, got same issue... Will try to do it without the RGBA, Let's see

[@abecadloabc1]

Will these settings be remembered for everyone assets in bridge ?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Yes, the settings are stored.

[@marialuisavario2316]

When we put the settings we have to insert all textures in Targa? Or we can put the albedo and dispacement in jpeg and the normal ( with alpha - gloss ) in targa?

[@wayneseymour1]

However the export potion when I hit the "+" button not working I made sure to check everything thoroughly but cant find why it won't export to the folder I created.

[@josephkakaire3219]

I have same problem @Wayne Seymour

[@RafaelGomes-gw4se]

Can we do the same strategy on D5 render?

[@project_residential]

Hi, Nuno! Could you advice how import textures from Quixel Bridge for Lumion 12? Or maybe you make short video about it?

[@marialuisavario2316]

Hi Nuno! Why also the albedo texture in targa? Why not in jpeg? Is it the same? Can you explain us please?

[@RedzwanulHuq]

As far as i know we are not allowed to use megascan assets in any program other than unreal engine without purchasing the asset. Not even for personal experiments.

[@peterallely5417]

Yeah I commented that also.

No, Megascans assets are only free if you’re producing your final renders in Unreal engine.

[@lounesicp5487]

but Nuno! its not free to use !!

[@NunoSilva3d]

They have free textures. And of course I never mentioned it was for free :) they do have subscription plan, and it's quite affordable.

man, this guy gives one of the best (imo the best i've seen so far) free lumion tips/tutorials on tube and you're criticised him to have one short advert for his actual work for lumion tutoring instead of zillion bs adverts like everyone else? do everyone really interested a favour and just skip this channel, if doesn't fits you.

@@izoyt thank you for the support! I'm thinking that maybe he meant that I was paid by Quixel to make this video, which is NOT the case. I really love their products and they haven't paid or asked me to make the video. :)

[@peterallely5417]

Dude, hope you’re paying for the use of Quixel Megascans assets, they’re only free if you’re rendering in Unreal Engine. Since this is a video on Lumion, it’s misleading to viewers to not explicitly explain this.
