Newer versions of Lumion are moving toward hybrid or path-tracing. While path tracing is beautiful (like in Lumion 2024), it is slow. relies on raw rasterization power. This means for a standard 4K still image, you are looking at render times of 30 to 90 seconds versus 15 minutes for a path-traced image. For firms on a deadline, speed wins.
