Part 6: Migration Guide – Moving from Old Dialux Pro

If you decide to upgrade to Dialux Pro new, follow this checklist:

Verify Hardware: Run the free "Dialux Pro Readiness Tool" (available on their website). It checks your GPU and RAM.
Backup Projects: The new version saves in a .dpx (new compressed format). Old .dil files will open but not save backwards. Keep a backup of legacy projects.
Retrain Staff: Allocate 1-2 days for training. The new "scene explorer" and "property panels" are radically different.
Update Templates: Recreate your company’s default settings (tables, headers, label blocks) in the new Report Designer. The old report engine is deprecated.

Dialux Pro New: A Complete Guide to the Next Generation of Professional Lighting Design

Published: October 2023 (Updated for latest release cycle)

For over three decades, Dialux has been the gold standard in professional lighting design software. From small retail shops to massive international airports, lighting designers, electrical planners, and architects rely on its photorealistic rendering and precise IES data management. When the phrase "Dialux Pro New" starts circulating in forums and trade magazines, the industry pays attention.

The latest iteration—often referred to internally as the "new engine" update—is not just a minor version bump. It represents a fundamental shift in how professionals approach light planning, 3D modeling, and real-time collaboration. Part 6: Migration Guide – Moving from Old

In this article, we will dissect everything you need to know about the Dialux Pro new release, including its interface overhaul, GPU-accelerated rendering, cloud integration, and why it changes the ROI calculation for lighting firms.

Use cases

Interior lighting design for offices, schools, hospitals, retail, hospitality.
Exterior area and façade lighting (with appropriate photometric datasets).
Daylight analysis for compliance and comfort.
Presentation visuals and client reports combining rendered imagery and technical outputs.
Coordination with architects and engineers via IFC exports/imports.

Strengths

Free to use with professional-grade calculation accuracy.
Strong BIM interoperability (IFC) for collaborative design workflows.
Large luminaire library and manufacturer support.
Good balance of engineering calculations and visual presentation.
Regular updates with new features oriented to professional users.

What people mean by “Dialux Pro new”

The modern, actively maintained DIALux evo platform and its recent professional-oriented updates (not an officially separate “Pro” product).
Emphasis on BIM integration, advanced 3D rendering, photometric accuracy, and multi-standard compliance for professional lighting design workflows.

Part 3: Performance Benchmarks (Old vs. New)

We tested the Dialux Pro new against the legacy v13 on a standard office floor plan (2,500 sq. meters, 450 luminaires, 23 calculation surfaces).

Note: Benchmarks performed on Intel i9-13900K + RTX 4090.

For a firm that does five large renders per week, the new version saves roughly 12 hours of waiting time per week.
