This rivals any of the best tutorials I've ever seen. The audio is perfect - not too quiet, not a ton of background noise. The narration is extremely easy to understand (linguistically). Every detail is covered; we're not left to chase down 500 keystrokes that were executed without commenting on what was done or why. I really wouldn't know how to improve this. Awesome job!

I am SO incredibly glad I found this, and of course HUGELY grateful that you made this, because this is SOOOO HELPFUL! (Btw, you probably know by now, but 'fresnel' is pronounced with the 'fre' from 'fresh,' and the nel from 'Nellie,' with the accent on the 'nel,' so it's 'freh NELL,' if that makes sense. It's derived from a name, I think, which explains a bit of its oddity. But don't give a DAMN how you pronounce it, because this video is SOOOO HELPFUL. lol.) Thank you thank you THANK YOU!! Hope things are going great for you. Cheers!

Also it's related to what angle you're looking at the object from (Angle of Incidence), not to where the lighting is hitting it from.

19:58 -- If you really want to know, "frenel", the "s" is silent. :) I believe that it is a lighting technique that is used to eliminate spherical aberrations without sacrificing a markable amount light intensity. I may be over-generalizing.

[@johanneszwilling]

THANK YOU! But here's the thing: I would have watched and recommended this two years ago when I saw it coming out, if the title would have been something like: "Import (almost) any city/place/town in 3d into Blender" This way I thought: "Meh,... why would I want to render/create a fictional city which may look realistic?!" I've been looking for something like THIS for some time now, so THANK YOU! PS: During my search for something like this, someone suggested to screen-record a tour through google maps with its 3D buildings turn on and then throwing the footage at photogrammetry software (Meshroom, Photoscan, what have you)

Whenever i import, all i get are red flat polys. No 3d buildings

[@airsnake2471]

Open up blender, click file at the upper left of the program which will open up a pop-up list. Click user preferences from that, and then the Blender User preferences window will open. Look for "Install Add-on from File..." near the bottom of this window and click that. It'll bring you to a darker menu to look for the .py that you need to have downloaded from the google drive. In this case, you said it was in your documents. When you have it selected, click "Install Add-on from File" which will now be near the upper-right of this new menu. Now it's installed, but you need to make sure it is enabled, so look for it under "User" which is a category in your Blender User preferences window. Import-Export: Import OpenStreetMap (.osm) needs to be checked. When that's done, you're good to go. Optionally, you can also click "Save User Settings" if you ever want to have this load every time Blender opens up.

[@Shoorik513]

Breathtaking tutorial. Million TNX!

[@virchowdhary6503]

can we import this into unity with the textures

[@autbo]

You could buy it would probably be laggy. You need to make LODs for the buildings and other things.

[@SianaGearz]

I don't think LODs will help at all. See it like this, the whole dataset is only 33000 vertices, close to what a single human character takes up in modern games for example, while GPU easily has a couple millions of vertices of throughput per frame. So you could conceivably draw everything as one drawable and it'll be absolutely fine. In contrast, once you start splitting out the separate buildings, you increase number of distinct objects, and Unity will have an issue with that, so LOD is likely to exacerbate the issue in this case. However, it will already be slow if the buildings are indeed individually textured, because Unity will split the object into drawables, each with one texture, and draw them individually, thus incurring high CPU overhead, and high API overhead from switching textures. A solution would hypothetically be atlassing, i.e. merging all textures into one, so the whole city can be drawn as a single or a mere handful of drawables. I don't have an idea on how to approach this though from within Blender.

[@SianaGearz]

Oh whoops, the model comes off OpenSteetMap untextured and he manually assigned a mere handful of textures. Go ahead, dump it into Unity as single object, it'll be fine. The merged vertices will be unmerged along normal seam and there will be a few times more of them by the time it gets to the GPU, but at 120000, it's still fine. Unity limits number of vertices per drawable to 65536, so it'll try to split it up, but if that fails, you can just do this manually beforehand. An unfortunate case can happen that you get overdraw accumulation, basically if you look from one side, it's fast, but from the other, it's slow... but then maybe you can fight back with randomized sort in Blender of vertices and faces.

[@jrc3ky]

SWEET! and Right On Time! Thanks CG Geek! Another GREAT tutorial.

[@AasifHaque]

Hey, I downloaded the free "import scene osm.py" from the link in the description, ticked the add-on, also "import images as plane" and "node wrangler" add-on. But when I import the .osm through "import osm" option, the viewport quickly shows only the red planes instead of with the buildings. So I get no buildings at all. How can I get the buildings? Do I need any other add-on (s) too?

[@CGGeek]

Did you check the option in the addon settings? after selecting your map, before importing though there are some settings along the left, check the import buildings button or something. :)

[@AasifHaque]

Only "import buildings" was selected, nothing else. But no buildings. Btw, I'm using fresh 2.78a with the add-ons you told to tick. What do I do now?

[@CGGeek]

Okay sounds like you have the settings right, my guess is the city map data you downloaded doesn't contain height map, try using the map provided in the description, and see if that imports.

[@AasifHaque]

Bro, I used the map from your description, and got the .osm file after selecting small place (~7mb) using the "Export" option, but no heights, I think the problem is with the free .osm import add-on, please check yourself with a fresh blender and the free .osm import add-on. I really want it to work, please let me know the result of your try. Btw, even a user of this video "Michaela Bernardo" commented that it didn't work for her either. Please help and fix the problem somehow.

[@CGGeek]

Okay you need to download the google drive link to the addon in the description, that one will still include height data.

[@vapsman88]

Great tutorial, Steve! I wasn't aware of OSM before, it's amazing how much detail is available. It's worth buying the full addon as he updates it often and the options are more extensive. One question: when you apply the texture to the buildings the front and side don't match very well. Do you have to apply the textures per face to fix it? Thanks.

[@Wafflx]

When I import the osm nothing shows up in the viewport, do you know what's wrong?

[@adriannagallet2191]

yes i had this same problem and i just fixed it! ok search up how to open osm in blender and click on the github link scroll down a little past introduction and click on a link that says download lastest right besides it and it takes you to justa bunch of text (python) copy all of that and paste it in notepad/word save the file as osm.py go to add ons and select extract from file and select the file you just save and it takes you right to the part where you click the inport-export box that he shows you in the video go to inport files and it should be there!

Random Artist No, thats not what im talking about. I have the option to import it its just that it doesnt appear after I impor the osm.

Augustin-Jean Fresnel (/freɪˈnɛl/ fray-nel )10 May 1788 - 14 July 1827), was a French engineer and physicist who contributed significantly to the establishment of the theory of wave optics. Fresnel studied the behaviour of light both theoretically and experimentally. He is perhaps best known as the inventor of the Fresnel lens, first adopted in lighthouses while he was a French commissioner of lighthouses, and found in many applications today. His Fresnel equations on waves and reflectivity also form the basis for many applications in computer graphics today - for instance, the rendering of water.

Hey Steve! I love your work and I want to be making animations and realistic 3D Modeling myself. My question is, what is the best PC and Computer that I should buy to be doing all these artistic designs? Good job on all your work buddy

Awesome, but how do you handle the bridges that span the river? You actually have the support towers in place for the Brooklyn & Manhattan Bridges already.

I suppose it would be easier when trying to separate buildings selecting linked on a building, inverting the selection and then pressing H to hide, probably make it easier to see

nice tutorial the blender osm from your link is th only one thats working for me. Why I do not know. I also tryed the payed version. Just error messages???? ;) I was just wondering why you not also extruded the roofs. I put the particel system on an extra "roof object" looks better in my eys and solved the texture problems. and the first roof seperation got the particels. So you have two roof objects. than you can 1. seperate the extruded version (hit p in edit mode => by loose parts; it takes a while) 2. select all and set origin to geometry 3. scale just a lil bit (in y and x directions with pivot point setted to individual origins) so you have better lokking roofs and taht lil tipp also solve some texture failures the automatical mapping created. thats the only thing I optimized. :D But except to above mentioned very good tutorial. helped me a lot!! thx!!!
