Stadia 3D for Revit 2013 - Real Time Visualization

I have mentioned Stadia 3D multiple times in the past and I will continue to post about it as the software grows.  Robert is a great guy and I love what he is doing over at Stadia 3D and I hope you all get a chance to try it out...

Stadia Updates - HDR and Real Time Rendering

I have posted about Stadia in the past and continue ongoing emails with the developer, Robert.  Robert let me know that there will be a new release of Stadia pending and it has some major enhancements.  One of the coolest things that separates Stadia from the other Real Time Visualization software for Revit is Robert's strong belief that the visualization should seamlessly integrate with Revit and not require any extra steps.

I cannot tell you all of the improvements as of yet but here are some before and after Stadia Interactive Renderings for your pleasure:

• Test Model on current Stadia Platform.
• Test Model on NEW Future Stadia Platform.

Stadia 3D - Interactive Rendering with Revit

Robert Pogue, of Stadia 3D, reached out to me in an effort to get the word out about his technology.  I have to say... It is COOL.  It is very simple.  You download the addin and install it.  Open your Revit project and go to a 3D view.  Type in your registered email address and click the "bake with Stadia" icon. Within an hour or so you receive an email informing you that your rendering is done.  Download the .exe... Run it, and VIO LA!  Your model is FULLY rendered (artificial lighting and all) and you can interact with it just like you would a video game...

Think of the possibilities.  Being able to render your entire building in the cloud and then interact with it... Select your favorite views and take screen shots or record your interaction as a walk through.  Awesome.  I fooled around with it quite a bit before posting about Stadia 3D here on the blog:

Click here and give it a try!  I promise you will be very excited and impressed (especially if you have a nice graphics card).  

A little tip, press ALT when launching the .EXE file and you can make the rendering values higher or lower.
