3.3: Models Deprecated and Removed from the Library
1. Overview:
|
The Content Team have been reviewing all content in the Library in response to your feedback and suggestions over the past year as outlined in the Roadmap: Project Phoenix.
This review also sought feedback from a large number of customers, direct and group feedback with different types of usage requirements so is expected to strongly move the usefulness, quality and modernization forward for your visualization Projects. |
 |
As part of that Project some models have now been updated to higher quality assets. This will provide for more modern assets and improved quality for your visualizations. See Section 1.4: New Library Models:

Knowledge Base: Lumion 2026 Release Notes
For Lumion 2026.0, the following changes have been made:
1. Upgraded Models:
Of the Nature Objects (Trees and Plants), 96 models have been upgraded and replaced with more modern, higher fidelity models.
They have been remodeled and updated for the model and materials. See Section What are the Models that have been Changed/Replaced?.
2. Deprecated Models:
Thirty seven (37) Nature models have been removed - deprecated in preference for changed models. See Section: Deprecated Models now for Legacy.
All prior version _Legacy models have also been removed from the install. Use the links in the steps later to download those.
2. What are the Models that have been Changed/Replaced?
2.1: Updated and Renamed
As part of the Library revision, some models were renamed. See table below.
For example, in Lumion 2025.2.2 AmericanElm2_L_RT
In Lumion 2026.0 and newer, the remodeled model with the revised model name: American_Elm_004:
Even though the model name has changed, Lumion will recognize that name from an older Project and replace it with the new model automatically.
Note if you notice one that has a Red Question mark, then first check to see if it is in the table below and also that it is not a Legacy model. If it should be valid, then please contact us:

3. Deprecated Models now for Legacy:
3.1: About the Change
The following models in the table (below) have been removed from the Lumion Nature Library.
If you have used any of the models in a project prior to Lumion 2026.0, then a Red Question mark will show.
You can avoid that and show the old model by downloading and saving the old deprecated legacy model files to the Library folders.
For example:
The question marks display the name of the assets missing.
Those models are available for download from the link in the following table, or as a complete set of Legacy files
-
or, Option 2 or Option 3 in Section Option: One Step, easiest - download all models at once.
The assets can be downloaded and then placed in the special Legacy folder: (once that has been created)
Model files will usually consist of: 3 files:
-
An LLM (the model file with model and materials).
-
An LLM.INN (thumbnail and information file).
-
LLM.JPG (for thumbnail).
Note: Important:
The files are provided with the sole intent that your Scene still has the model and can render as they did before.
Item functionality however will not be restored at this time. (Though this may change in a future update of Lumion). These models are not available in the Object Library for Nature models.
3.2: Download Instructions
Your extract/unzip options will depend on the Unzip software tool you use.
Quick Step downloading All files:
1. Download all Legacy models (Zip file: 874MB, extracted 245 files, 2.30GB) in this link: Combined Old Legacy and New 26 Legacy.
2. Extract to a folder, then move the Project folder and subfolders/files to:
[install drive][Lumion 2026 install location]\ArchitectEdition\
3.2.1: Option 1: Download a single model for those Deprecated for Lumion 2026
1. Make sure Lumion is closed.
2. Click on the Zipped File link in the following table to download a Zipped copy.
3. The _legacy folder is not automatically created for Lumion 2026.0. You need to create that folder yourself under \Trees:
[install drive][Lumion 2026 install location]\ArchitectEdition\Project\Trees\
4. Unzip and extract the model files (3) to a folder in Downloads. Then move the files to the _legacy folder.
3.2.2: Option 2: Download all models at once for those Deprecated for Lumion 2026 only
1. Close Lumion.
2. Download and unzip this complete set of models now Legacy for 2026 in this link: Legacy 2026 Model files Only.
File size to download: 440MB Extracted file Size: 1.44GB.
3. Extract the zip file to a folder in Downloads, then Move or Cut/Paste the folders/files to the _legacy folder:
[install drive][Lumion 2026 install location]\ArchitectEdition\Project\Trees\_legacy\
Example: C:\Program Files\Lumion 2026\ArchitectEdition\Project\Trees\_legacy\
See Note on _legacy folder: for 3.2.1.
3.2.3: Option 3: Download all models at once for All Deprecated Models:
The _legacy folder for those models deprecated in earlier versions has also been removed. Mostly Trees, some People and Animals, some Transport.
If you have older than 2025 Projects that might include one or more of the models, then download the complete _legacy folders, as follows.
1. Close Lumion.
2. Download all old previous Legacy models and the new ones for 2026 in this link: Combined Old Legacy and New 26 Legacy.
Zip file: 874MB, extracted 245 files, 2.30GB
3. Extract the zip file to a folder, in your Downloads or Desktop (has suitable permissions).
The unzipped main folder will be named Projects: With subfolders for the Nature, Transport and People and Animals models. For example:
You should have a subfolder Project:
Then Move or Cut/Paste the Projects folder to the [install drive][Lumion 2026 install location]\ArchitectEdition\ folder.
Example: C:\Program Files\Lumion 2026\ArchitectEdition\
Click Continue for Permissions:
After Moving/pasting:
4. Open Lumion and one of your Projects using the Legacy models. They should show
