How to Make Realistic PBR Materials in Lumion

@@christiantolentino2592 I don't think so my friend. Even it's not working on Lumion 10. You should have Lumion 10.3 to do it.

I love how normal and displace give more realism... the point is: as I aways wanna put them strong, I also need to see a reference to make sure that Im not "over". Thanks for the tips!

You don't need to! :) If you use the correct materials from Poliigon for example, they are already well calibrated.

in my lumion 10.0.1 pro i can not add displacement because the material had just two channal diffuse and normal > in your video i show three channal in lumion which version do you use thank you >>>>>

You need to have Lumion 10.3 to use Custom Displacement. But note that the workflow is the same, without the Displacement.

hi Nuno, can you explain me why did you invert the normal map green channel, and how did you do it?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Yes, because if you don't you will have incorrect lighting on the texture. Like the wrong shadow placement.

Hello Nuno. I did exactly the same as the tutorial but maps doesn't match correctly, also when I scale them, it scales the albedo map only and it looks weird. Do yo know how to fix this? I think this issue is coming from Sketchup, but I am not really sure...

Thank you!

[@rogeriopenna9014]

ABSOLUTELY NOBODY distributes PBR materials with the reflection map as an Alpha Channel Lumion Developers: We have a brilliant idea! The reflection map must be inserted in the alpha channel, so you have no control over it's size, but better yet, you will have to Photoshop EVERY SINGLE ONE of your PBR materials to put the reflection map in the alpha channel!

[@marskumuamba5816]

Very good ttutto

Why did you inverted green channel for rough plaster material and not for the wood planks one???

[@jasimmeaaljazzaf3173]

I have an older version of lumion but I don’t need displacement ... I have one issue though, when I follow the steps and put the gloss map in the alpha Chanel and save it as targa in 32 bit as you did I still have a very reflective material!

[@NunoSilva3d]

Open the targa file again in Photoshop and confirm it has the alpha applied correctly.

Hello. Nice tutorial. Could you tell or show, how to do Alpha Channel trick in Affinity Photo?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Sorry, but I'm not using Affinity Photo, but I'm sure there's a lot of information even here on KZbin on how to do that! :)

[@ShomitSarkar]

Nuno Silva hi, noticed one change in this version of 10.3 as against the 10 tutorial u had explained before This time u totally skipped using the roughness texture map which u used to put in albeido alpha channel. So is it that due to the new displacement.. The roughness is not useful anymore?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Already replied on Facebook group, but I'll leave it here as well :) that part was not clear from my part and I cannot add notes to KZbin video anymore - you can either use the Roughness in the Alpha Channel of the Albedo or use the Gloss in the Alpha Channel of the Normal map. Roughness and Gloss map are the same map, just inverted. It's just that some Software uses one, and another uses the other. :) But just use one. Either Gloss or Roughness.

[@mitaliacharya6286]

Hi Nuno, can you please let me know when I download free material from poliigon, it doesn't have a displacement map in it, Please suggest how to proceed further in that case.

[@NunoSilva3d]

does this displacements affects corners? doesn't seems so, still just regular box corner. how to make this on let say old brick or stone building etc?

Not yet. This is more of a Parallax effect. You would have to do some editing in post to have that effect.

[@alangoncalves889]

Nuno, may i ask why you didn't use the roughness inside the albedo as previous tutorials??

You can either use Roughness on the Albedo or Gloss on the Normal map. Just use one of these options.

You can’t add it separately in Lumion. This is the way you have to add gloss map to your texture. :)

[@tchanka3433]

Thx for this tutorial. 1 question : I saw some videos were people's put the AO into the Albedo, and others put the roughness into the Albedo. Can you explain me in wich case i have to use the AO or the roughness ?

[@NunoSilva3d]

Hi Nicolas! The AO is to give some contact shadows in the Albedo. If you get a diffuse map, don't do this, because usually they already come with contact shadows. In Lumion you can either use Gloss or Roughness map. They are the same texture, just inverted. If you use Gloss, put on the alpha channel of the Normal map. If you use Roughness, put on the alpha channel of the Albedo. :)
