Twinmotion is a free flow real-time 3D visualization software that produces high-quality images, panoramas and standard or 360° VR videos in seconds, it is widely used by architectures, construction engineers, urban planners and landscaping professionals. Twinmotion is powered by Unreal Engine designed by Epic Games and is very easy to learn and use, not minding the size and how complex your project is, the materials, your knowledge or your preferred CAD Software.

Twinmotion is available on both macOS and Windows in 8 languages: English, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish.

Twinmotion is tightly incorporated with Archicad through the Direct Link plug-in. It highly speeds up 3D design and visualization workflows in architectural designs. Through the live Direct link, both the Archicad and Twinmotion model are synchronized in real-time, which makes it possible to edit the model and make design decisions on-the-go, while all changes made in the Archicad model are subject to an automated update process inside Twinmotion.

Most people prefer to manually export their model from Archicad or other CAD softwares to Twinmotion by saving the Archicad model as a .tma, FBX, SKP, C4D and OBJ formats.

I’ve been working with Twinmotion for over 2 years now, it’s simple and easy to master, it doesn’t require high end PCs to run, you can run the application with a 4GB RAM with at least 1GB dedicated video RAM but you’ll have to run it in low quality and it doesn’t affect the quality of the final rendering.

Renderings which normally take hours with Atlantis Studio are just done in a couple of minutes with ease not compromising imagine quality.

Videos are also very easy to produce, with Twinmotion’s powerful engine you can produce 4k videos in minutes.
