Lumion 8.5 Material Library Free Download
Elias changed his search strategy. He stopped looking for "cracks" or "hacks" and looked for legitimate resources compatible with his version.
He found that while Lumion doesn't allow you to "download" the official library separately (it is embedded in the software installation), you could expand it legally and safely.
1.

If you have access to SketchUp’s 3D Warehouse or Revit’s default libraries, you can export textures. While not a direct "Lumion download," these textures can be saved as .jpg or .png and imported.
Solution: Run Lumion as Administrator. If the crash persists, you likely have a corrupted third-party material. Delete the most recently added texture from your Documents/Lumion/Library folder.
