For Mac & Windows — create high-quality images, standard & 360° videos, panoramas & presentations, plus VR walkthroughs.
Twinmotion, made by Epic (Unreal Engine, Fortnight), is the easiest 3D rendering and animation program you will ever use! It's a realtime visualisation tool for architects, urban planners, and landscape architects that transforms CAD data into stunning visualisations so you can share ideas and communicate designs quickly and easily.

For individuals and small businesses that made less than $1 million USD in revenue in the past 12 months, educational institutions, and students. The only drawback is it doesn’t include Twinmotion Cloud. Apply via CAD School
It uses the graphics card of your computer to do the rendering (so you need a decent graphics card!). It imports files from Vectorworks and has a hot link with SketchUp, Revit, or Archicad.
A hot link to Vectorworks is under construction and we expect it to be ready when the next release of Vectorworks comes out. In the meantime Vectorworks can export to Twinmotion using OBJ or C4D exports very easily.
Seeing your project in real-time using VR goggles literally needs to be seen to be believed! It is AMAZING! When I first put some VR goggles on using Twinmotion at a Netflix film studio I was stunned (and had a real experience of vertigo when standing on the edge a structure!)
Product description from Twinmotion…
Twinmotion is designed to be simple and easy to use. By combining an intuitive icon-driven interface, drag and drop assets, and one-click workflows, you’re able to get started quickly and be productive right out of the box.
Twinmotion’s ever growing library has thousands of static and smart assets that enable you to easily create stunning scenes without the heavy lifting. This includes assets like furniture, lights, ambient sounds, animated vehicles, human and animal characters, and even plants that dynamically react to the time and seasons.
Creating context and achieving realism is quick and easy with over 600 physically accurate materials that react to your environment and smart features that allow you to do things like study the impact of the sun’s position on a scene or visualize how vegetation will look in different seasons.
Twinmotion is compatible with all BIM software and offers a one- click Direct Link synchronization with ARCHICAD, Revit, SketchUp Pro, Rhino, and RIKCAD so you can easily import your files. Twinmotion also supports 21 other CAD formats including FBX, SKY, C4D, and OBJ.
Quick, high-quality results, believable scenarios, less time spent on sourcing assets. It feels more like play than work, which frees up creative flow. With less time spent on waiting for results, you get more time for iteration and testing/failing/succeeding.Thor Bragason, Visualization Specialist at EFLA
