Recently, Revit launched its 2027.3 update, introducing new features focused on workflow enhancement and interoperability across the Autodesk environment. The development of the software is also moving further into AI agents and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, two technologies that are beginning to reshape the BIM environment.

D5 Render 3.1 introduces Interactive Presentation for live design reviews, expands D5 Lite to Revit and Rhino, and delivers new rendering and VR enhancements. The release reflects a growing shift towards real-time visualization as an integral part of the architectural design workflow.

Maxon is expanding Redshift for Archviz with a new integration for Autodesk Revit and a beta version for Graphisoft Archicad. The goal is simple: bring real-time, photorealistic visualization directly into BIM workflows, reducing the need for exports, file management, and external rendering tools.

Lumion Pro opens the 2026 season with its first major update. Designed to help architects and designers move projects from near completion to final presentation faster, Lumion Pro 2026 focuses heavily on workflow optimization, time-saving tools, and improved scene management. This update introduces new vegetation systems, expanded asset libraries, AI-assisted tools, and better BIM interoperability, all aimed at streamlining the visualization process.

V-Ray 7 introduced a range of new features, including 3D environment creation with Gaussian Splats, immersive virtual-tour experiences, enhanced point-cloud rendering, and more. As BIM continues to evolve at a rapid pace, the question remains: can this version of the software truly stand out and integrate seamlessly into a BIM workflow?

Lumion View is a new plug-in for SketchUp and Revit, offering real-time visualization that lets architects and designers see their projects instantly while modeling. Introduced in early access in March 2025, the tool integrates directly into modeling software, enabling designers to explore their ideas in real time without leaving their CAD or BIM environment.

Act 3D has released Lumion 7.5 update in the beginning of July.

I dropped out of school when I was obsessed enough with Max and render engines, spending 12-14 hours a day just testing every area. After some time I started getting contacts via the forums where I had posted my renderings to share with others.

My "secret" tool is Vray2SidedMtl. It's a cool way to create realistic leaves for vegetation and, in my opinion, it's better and also faster for rendering than using translucence map.

CL3VER launches today its new Autodesk Revit Export App on the Autodesk Exchange Apps store.

Looking back on my education process, i wouldn’t take back all the sleepless nights dedicated to tutorials, design articles, and so on, as they all, along with the university i attended, shaped me into the artist i am today.

Now our industry is growing, people also are learning traditional skills of sketching, clay art, photography, they are developing their own concept, using new techniques of story telling
