Here's what I like...
1. Nice skies (without rendering over a picture)
2. I can leave my ARCHICAD file FREE of crap like furniture, people and trees and let ArtLantis take care of that.
3. High polygon counts do not hinder ArtLantis like they do ArchiCAD
4. Cool stuff, like furniture, can be downloaded in .3ds format from the web and converted to ArtLantis objects.
5. Batch Rendering
6. Cars in motion
7. It's fast(er, than ArchiCAD anyway)
8. Radiosity
9. The ability to keep your ArtLantis file as you develop your ArchiCAD file and simply swap out your current building.
10. Great gravity functions for placing trees, cars, etc.
I am sure there's more... Get STUDIO (animations)...

1) Seems like artlantis lights are all spot lights, unlike lightworks lights that has general lights, area lights, etc. Is this seemingly limitation a limitation at all?
2) For the budget conscious, does the studio version really come in useful for architects? Never had to do an animation for anybody yet, but is it worth it for a small architecture firm? What about the Quicktime VR or panorama?

I could not imagine NOT HAVING animation... Not sure I can put a price on though.. I do use animation more than rendering. But for the quick email to the client, then renders are great.
My 2 cents...

Note: This thinking does not apply to ordering the bubinga wood dashboard accents on your next Buick.
A VR panorama is something the architect totally controls [by choosing a perfect viewpoint], yet the viewer thinks he is driving.
A VR object lets the client encapsulate his little project into a crystalline jewel and imparts deity-like feelings. "He got de whole world in his hands…"

Even though it purports to be an actual design communication, it should really be the topic of my "What Not to Do In Making an Animation" lecture.
Strap in and have airsick bag handy.

"Spots" can have a light cone of 360degrees... so it's pretty much a general light. I have not experimented a lot with lights as I've done a lot of exterior rendering.
