You can try a plugin for Sketchup called SU Podium. It produces some really
nice renders, with very simple controls. The only drawback is it's a bit
slow. Also, you might look into 3d PaintBrush.

Dear List.
I am in search of free or relatively cheap lighting simulation
software. Something that offers libraries for various kinds of
lighting fixtures/lights/projections.
I have been using the TurboSketch plugin for Sketchup Pro. It isn't
bad, but it is a bit limited regarding type and output of lighting.
And converting lumens to candelas to match its parameters isn't ideal.
The photo-renderer in programs like AutoCAD or Vectorworks do this,
and I had WYSIWYG recommended to me, but they are all quite out of my
price range.
Thoughts are welcome and appreciated.
Regards.
Daniel
