Cómo puedo exportar la animación?

Well, i tried it, but idk how, it needs an API key to run, or am I doing something wrong? I guess.

That's great! Thanks dude :)

if youre having issues with the no directory, you need to set a directory for where the plugin should dump the downloaded assets, go the the preferences and the plugin just under should say provide file location.

what version of blender are you using

What to do if neither the standard PLY importer nor the importer from GitHub generates the required color attribute? Blender 4.2

Thank you , I want to know Camera Projection can transfer to UE5 ?

Blender gets more and more impressive!

I get Error: Python: Traceback (most recent call last): File “\Text.01”, line 159, in <module> IndexError: bpy_prop_collection[index]: index 0 out of range, size 0

Hi, I am interested in this addon, can it be applied to something like a car? This is the closest thing to ImageModeller I have been looking for for years.

I used RenderDoc to get a capture from PCSX2 , problem is I can't get the file to import to blender using the mapsmodelimporter, get an invalid capture file error. When I'm viewing the capture in renderdoc everything looks fine. Not sure if you can help, but any suggestions would be nice

Hello, I'm very interested in camera projection these days then i found your video very interesting even if it's 4 years old. btw, have you updated your addon for automated camera proj for blender 3.6 or v4 ? Thanks !

I'm running through an issue where the height map seems to be coming out very pixelated. I seem to be getting the same issue when using only the BlenderGIS plugin to make the height map too. Is there just not enough data in some places in the world when using STRM 30m for height maps?

You will never know how much time of life you have just given me. 🙏

Can u plz add how did u visualise tisso 's circle on that sphere ? in fact how did u even unwrap the shpere into a plane in blender ?

At 8:33 minutes, when I choose to "calculate from" my "layer area", all the north, south, east, and west values reset to 0, and I can't export, even though I followed the tutorial to the letter. Thanks for this tutorial

IMO this is the best way to do camera projection for modeling

The quality on these seem a LOT higher than with the official Google Earth 3D tiles via Blosm method. Even blosm using "buildings with more details" have like half as much detail as using this method. I noticed when using Google Maps that i can see more detail than my blender blosm imports which i spent ages doing so I decided to try this way to get the tiles directly from what i can see in the browser and yep much better. I guess Google resticts the best quality for themselves.

Very well done video. Sub'd. I would also love to cleanup the mesh into quads - even if it took a whole weekend of processing.

Thank You Nicko16. Could you share what is "WKT Reference" actually doing ? Trying to understand this workflow and can the "WKT Reference" be use in other parts of the world?

Incredibly helpful, thank you!

Awesome, this is what I was looking for. I really appreciate what you have done for the humanity.

Nicko I know this post is old but I followed the instructions but my bake is always black. I am using the Google 3D tiles, does that make a difference, not sure where i am going wrong. I didnt use your new script because the mesh is already a single mesh with google, but I did use he smaller original script you wrote. I have done this over and over and same black result. I am still new to Blender, I am a Maya guy.

to me is not working, when i import the file it import a mesh that is like a messy rock mesh with none of textures and low poly.

i don't have that inject option at all.

I did everyting as shown but when importing it into Blender nothing happens. Not even an eror message, just nothing is imported. Anyone with the same issue or a sollution?

after creating custom project qgis wkt projection it went straight to white screen. please anyone else have similar issues

I've tried twice now, but I get a grey texture at the end...and it's not called "collection_texture". Any clues?

Bloody amazing, thank you sir!

Thanks man.

I'm pretty new to blender, is this still the best way to use .ply in blender today, or are they natively supported now?

I turned this into a FREE addon. I can share a link here if it is cool with Nicko :)

Hello, I have just started learning Blender and I am using Blender 4.1. I am trying to render from a point cloud, but no matter what format I use (I even tried the files from your video) , I cannot see any colors. When I first downloaded it, the point cloud visualizer was not available, so I found a file on GitHub and added it to my Blender. I think I am experiencing a similar issue with the colors. Can you please help me with how to fix this?

Thanks to you

I know you can also get buiilding height data from OSM, if you use the map funcion of BlenderGIS and then later use get OSM, the buildings that have data will be the correct height, do you know how to get that data via QGIS?

I've been working with both QGIS and Blender separately and this is absolutely what I need for my workflow! Thank you for the tutorial. Keep enlightened us Nicko~

great tutorial, interessting topics, thank you for your work 🧡

Whoa, I'm accustomed to ESRI products but now i have another reason to use QGIS. 😂 This is awesome!

Thank you for your effort and the wonderful explanation. Everything works well except for the render and I made sure that the point cloud is visible in the active camera frame.

Why didnt you use the height info off the buildings? Isn't there a way of using ir in blender?

This is crazy, Thank you for all your effort. 🤯

I have no idea what you just did but I loved every second of Nicko. Thanks for the video. Another satisfied subscriber here.

Hi ! Great tutorial ! Just wanted to mention, when you change the CRS by going in the bottom right corner, it does a "on the fly" reprojection and not a "true" one (which you can get by using the toolbox). This usually has an impact when trying to merge data in QGIS but it might have implications when saving as a shapefile or when importing into blender but it's probably nothing

Hello NICKO Thank you very much for your efforts ! I am a satisfied subscriber. Thanks to this subscription I didn't miss this video.

What's wrong with using a CRS appropriate to Greece if they are already defined in QGIS and the Blender plugin?

it has an error on the 102 line bpy.context.view_layer.objects.active = comb_coll.objects[0] this one chat gpt cant fix it
