Dude, you did it! This is a big deal. I spent too long trying to crack this and ended up switching to 3ds Max instead, but this is THE way to make this actually work well in Blender. The only bit of info I'd add is that it just sucks with Photoshop that you have to use such an old version now to have equirectangular projection - aside from missing out on newer features, the images look really crazy on my NVIDIA card when projected. Affinity Photo, though, is all-round so much better for using that particular feature. Looks like it might actually work well still on a macOS machine though

thanks @SamEmilio2, I'm glad you appreciate it. I thought it was a pretty big deal too when I finally figured it out! and I thought I had seen something along those lines with photoshop - thats to do with the '3d workspace' for spherical images being removed, right? I guess sometimes it pays to rarely update my (subscription based) software. haha.

From a diversity of 1000 different words to choose from in the search bar. with 2 pages with 10 videos for each keyword it makes a total of 20 videos / keyword . 1000 keywords x 20 videos = a total of 20.000 videos . each worth 50 mb = a total of 1 Terrabytes This means that we could put atleast 100 videos per keyword = 5 Terrabytes and if we double the amount of keywords for 2 words variations on the search bar = 10 Terrabytes if we double that again makes it 20 terrabyte and the double of that makes it 40 Terrabytes This makes it possible to make combinations of 6 words on the search bar for only 40 Terrabytes 40 terrabytes for Google search with 1000 simple keywords and only 2 webpages per word . with the possability to use a total of 5 keywords on the search bar . - all forums and blogs offline FOR SOCIAL MEDIA EXPERIENCE - idbm for browsing any info on any movie ever made - same for series and cartoons - same for music Just like wikipedia ... The browser will function like opera lite and only load the usefull content and ignore heavy stuff . 30 Terrabytes for google image With 1000 keywords x 4 variations ( 2 pages for each word ) 10 terrabytes for giphy with 1000 keywords 10 terrabytes for : Chatgpt offline Ai Image generator offline Wikipedia offline Google maps offline 20 terrabytes for all essencial programs and free pc/android video games to download on Apps store . 3GB game x 333 games = 1 Terrabytes 2GB game x 500 games = 1 Terrabyte 1gb game x 1000 games = 1 Terrabyte 500mb game x 2000 games = 1 Terrabyte 100mb games x 10.000 games = 1 Terrabyte 50mb games x 20.000 games = 1 Terrabyte 14 Terrabytes for programs like : top 10 video editors top 10 vfx software top 10 image editors , top 10 music creation programs top 10 instrumental creation programs top 10 autotune programs top 10 coding language programs top 10 game developing programs top 10 old game developing programs top 10 writting programs top 10 app design programs top 10 3D modeling programs top 10 drawning programs top 10 coloring programs top 10 music/video players System softwares and drivers And thousands of other freeware and open source programs...

Chris. Is there any software that can simulate lighting and shadows for real estate. Let's say you had exterior photos of a home and you wanted to add life to it by having realistic lighting and shadows. In other words converting a cloudy scene to sunny. Possible?
@cgardinerphoto5 ай бұрын
hey there, thanks for your comment - and for being one of the 15 people to watch this. hahaha. I've thought about what you're asking before - my use case would be more to do with making realistic fake twilights where the lamps cast appropriate glow onto portions of the exterior. something like blender COULD do this, however, it may be time and cost prohibitive because you'd need a fairly accurate 3d reconstruction of the exterior for it to catch all the lighting properly. AI is getting pretty good at generating 3d mesh from a single still however, so the mesh generation may not be far off from where we are today. Also gaussian splats could get you a half decent starting point, but would still need some post processing to do the lighting and then composite it in. And then I've also played around with some style transfer AI to train it on two sets of images - cloudy exteriors, and blue sky exteriors, and then it will try to convert cloudy to blue sky, (or vice versa) however I need a beefier GPU to make it more viable - I was maxing out around 1000px images so that project has been sitting on the back burner.. for now, I just settle for doing the old fashioned blue sky swaps with photoshop. I've got a tutorial about how to make blue sky swaps, and IMO I share some tips to make them a little more realistic than what you may get back from an (or most) outsourced editor team. But this is pretty standard practice so Im assuming youre not as interested in it; kzbin.info/www/bejne/jH3dloSYgKeCrtU

There seems to be a major limitation. Can Kiwix only be downloaded directly to a reader (phone, computer, etc.)? It would be much more useful if I could copy it to whatever storage device I was using. Otherwise, if my reader breaks and I have to find a new one but the internet doesn't exist anymore, then all of the information I have downloaded on the SD card is useless unless I happen to stumble upon another reader that already has Kiwix installed. Am I missing something?
@cgardinerphoto5 ай бұрын
hey Daniel, thanks for your comment. it can be installed directly on device - not sure about e-readers, but windows/Mac/linux computers should be no problem, however, if you install it on one device attached to your home's internet router for instance, you can make it available to every device in your home regardless of whether 'the internet exists' anymore or not because its being served locally - you'd only need power for the device (minimal in the case of a raspberry pi) and power for the router (also usually minimal). this is how I have it set up. the ZIM files can be quite large too, so to distribute those across any device you want to be able to access it on would make for a lot of extra storage space required.

And they provide similar source code / build options for androids. [[ edited to add: you'd probably still need a computer to build it and deliver to your phone though. ]] kiwix.org/en/applications/ github.com/kiwix/apple The problem (I have) with cell phones is they're consumer devices which keep a lot of the back end functionality just out of reach of normal users, proprietary batteries, etc, plus who knows whos watching me. Anything you can load linux onto is effectively the total opposite of a consumer device, all of its functionality is at your fingertips, and personally I prefer that route. -what I might recommend for a similar level of security in similar situations, is get two raspberry pi zero W 2s. they're maybe $20 each. they're 1/4 the size of a cell phone too, so easy to tuck into a first aid kit, or bug out bag lets say. they can run on little phone charger battery packs even, or anything you can plug a USB into. -get the system set up on the device for one, where the pi zero w becomes your wifi access point, no router needed. a tiny bit of coding needed but really not that hard. -once the first pi is functional for this purpose, use the built in SD card imager. this just duplicates your operating system and everything else with it, and you can do this infinite number of times. it makes a backup of the system in its current state. you could plug those newly imaged sd cards into your backup pi when your first breaks and functionally, you'll have the same working version just a different physical copy of it. I use some raspberry pis in my work, (not the zeros for what I do) but I have backup hardware (extra raspberry pis) and backup, already-imaged SD cards in the case one of either piece gets exploded/set on fire/soaked with water/other unfortunate events. best of luck to you! thanks again for watching!

Just today for instance, shot a place, and not everything was photo-ready upon my arrival, the fireplace was eventually turned on for video however, I had already shot stills in that room, so I've added fire to the fireplace. also, when youre concerned about these matters, its always smart to deliver the original and the photoshopped copy, and then the onus is on the realtor to decide which one is more appropriate to use.

Hey Chris! Is there a way to rotate or scale a clip once it's in the drop zone? I see other creators making transparent overlay guidelines to manually position the clips, but if I need to rotate the clip, I'm left with a crooked video.
@cgardinerphoto6 ай бұрын
hey Kyle, thanks for your question. just tested your situation; for context, I'm imagining you find a shot where your gimbal was slightly off, and you may want to rotate by 1 degree lets say? -- no, I dont currently have anything built into the generator to facilitate that. however, scaling the clip inside the generator without affecting the boundaries - yes we can do that. You'd double click the offending clip inside your viewer, and then you'd be presented with the regular dashed lines and blue circles around the corners to resize however you wish. for rotating, two options; 1)rotate the clip on its own and then make it a compound, and then use the compound clip asthe source of the drop zone. 2) I could probably work out some kind of rotation slider for each drop zone, however, we'd then need one rotation slider for each drop zone, and it might present further complications, and/or not work as I'm expecting it to in my mind right now. in any case -- thanks for watching, and sharing your ideas!

@cgardinerphoto7 ай бұрын
hey Sam, thanks for watching. and great question. all of this is render. the original room/photo was an unfinished basement from a regular DSLR and we wanted to highlight what a nice renovation could do to the space for a real estate client. in the interest of making the 360 rendered video, being a personal project using the same scene, I just put some extra walls behind the camera so we had something to look at if anyone turned in that direction. if on the other hand, you are aware of an easy workflow to take real 360 photos and pull them into blender for alignment (like ive demonstrated in another virtual staging video I have using fspy and blender) then I would be happy to hear more from you about it though! there are definitely ways to take your photographed scene and 'project' those captured colors and lighting onto the 3d mesh, which I do demonstrate that in a virtual staging with blender video, but haven't got it working with a 360 original photo. let me know if there's any other questions you have, or something you're trying to achieve though, and id be happy to share whatever else I know.

I recently started looking into how to get 360 scans into Blender for doing Matterport staging. It's crazy how much harder it is than for a 2D photo with fspy! It gets so complex so fast. I've tried a few things that haven't worked at all. I even spent/wasted the $50 on the MatterPak .obj file. The mesh is awful, and probably only works well if you're using a Pro3 camera. Something I'm going to try when I get a few spare minutes soon is a workflow for krpano, with a projection add on that I can't remember the name of. If I make any viable progress with it I'll shoot you an email.

Excellent idea. I have used mod podge for other tasks, such as representing water for dioramas. One trick I learned that might could help for your final top coat would be to thin it a little with water. That would reduce the viscosity and might allow you to smooth it out good enough while rolling it for a single coat. But I totally get why you sand it and then apply the second coat. I do the same when sealing many of my scale models. Makes for a very smooth finish. BTW, the main reason for watching this is because I want to add a small picture to the wooden base of my diorama frame so trying to see the best way to do that.
