Hi everyone.
Im an undergraduate of Architecture, i will start work at a private firm in Kaduna State. Ive been searching desperately for some good cracked rendering programs. All the ones I've found are either password locked or need premium account, or completed survey to download and such...Im using a Macbook pro Version 10.11.6 [El-Capitan].
The softwares i desperately need are:

Vray for sketchUp 2015/2016

Lumenrt 2015

Light-Up for sketchUp

I already have programmes such as Artlantis, but they are not to my taste.

If anyone within the architectural business knows anyplace in Kaduna i could go to for help or know any "legitimate" websites i can check to download any one of these from, i will be forever grateful.

And if anyone has other recommendations, I'm open to them.

thank you

Install Windows 10,you will find a lot of pirated software s for Windows. Better still you could buy the software.

I dont want to lower the performance of my mac...ive heard too many comments that this is unwise.
As for buying the software: sure i'll just go withdraw $1000 from my bank account for vray and then another $3000 for lumenrt.

my sister..in this part of the world..windows OS rules...I mean..with regards to flexibility,ease of getting softwares (cracked ones)...dude just gave solid advice...get a Windows laptop..you can keep ur MacBook by the side...except like you said..u're willing to break the bank for two softwares...but on a more serious note...get windows...

You can visualise Windows on free softwares like virtual box or paid softwares like vmware workstation. But since you will be running mostly cad programmes you will need to install Windows side by side with the mac OS. It is relatively safe, I run 3 totally different operating system on my laptop and I don't have a problem with it.
Or you could just buy the software like every body else don't let those poor software developer go hungry.
You should check out achicad, Autodesk Revit, Autodesk 3dx design

thank you for the advice....but lets just say i had some money somewhere to buy a new windows laptop, which kind would be ideal for all these programms? And what would be the price range?

Im only asking because in future i can still hold on to mac as personal computer but have the windows PC for professional use

Specs:An Intel core preferably i5 and above but i3 will do and a minimum of 4gb ram, 8gb and above for optimal performance.
Price range:you can check out Konga's and Julia's computer section.
