[@nikmills]

It's $80 a year now.

[@sumitbasra]

thanks for the update!

[@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1245]

80? I saw 99.99

4:19 "The star is pretty much there, it's just missing like a point" ....ummm, haha.

[@sumitbasra]

lol

[@AndrewSink]

Absolutely amazing work, Sumit! I wouldn't have thought this model would have worked because of all the glitter and strings, but it worked great!

[@sumitbasra]

thanks Andrew! i was really surprised too, this opens up so many more possible scans I wouldn’t have thought to work before

[@Technolotea]

This is so cool man! Definitely going to be testing out this app!

[@Technolotea]

Also, got a sub from me! Keep up the great work!

[@sumitbasra]

thanks, I appreciate the support! and I’d love to hear what you think of the app after you test it out

[@jmula1963]

Polycam Pro is $60/yr now or $8/mo subscription

[@sumitbasra]

Thanks for the update, I hadn’t noticed!

[@chrismclain4543]

Lol so? Dude I’d pay $60/month. I don’t know what most people use it for but I’m sure most their customers are businesses like mine.

[@Playmakerstudios]

@@chrismclain4543 So he's just updating him. Was there something he said that made you think otherwise?

[@chrismclain4543]

@@Playmakerstudios Guy was complaining. Deleted his comment when I called him out

Happy to see this follow-up to your photogrammatry vs lidar video, thank you for putting these out, exactly what I was looking for!

[@sumitbasra]

thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

[@fruitcupproductions]

Great video! But the star was simply not there LOL

[@sumitbasra]

lol to be fair I expected a lot less

[@dksculpture]

Very helpful. Thank you.

[@sumitbasra]

you’re welcome!

[@twfreeride8932]

When I press done it says saving data for ages

[@sumitbasra]

on the phone?

[@forsvarsmuseetrustkammeret939]

Sorry the Polycam simply does not work. I did the same steps but only got flakes, and none of the editing features worked. I tried to crop the photo, but it did not respond

[@powdereyes2210]

this man is already editing like a popular youtuber and yet has 409 subscribers I'm speechless

[@sumitbasra]

thank you!!

[@Minesheap69]

How does he only have 450 Subscribers?? That was insanely high quality content

[@sumitbasra]

thank you!!

[@FPChris]

I’ve done photogrammetry before and hate the workflow. I was really hoping LiDAR would be better. Sadly it’s not.

[@sumitbasra]

yeah it's definitely still a work in progress, what apps have you tried?

[@rmi2548]

samee

[@oozly9291]

High quality video

[@sumitbasra]

thanks!

[@KH-qy7fm]

Hi Sumit! Great video! Very informative! I’m not sure where you’re located but in my corner of the world the yearly subscription to Polycam is $99.99! ☹️

[@sumitbasra]

thanks, glad you found it helpful! I’m in the US, so I wonder if the price is just dependent on country? is the monthly cost for you different as well?

[@KH-qy7fm]

@@sumitbasra Yes. I live in Canada. I know there’s a difference between each country’s dollar value with respect to each other but I didn’t think it was that great.

[@sumitbasra]

@@KH-qy7fm yeah I had no idea it would be that much of a difference

[@divyanshdevmani4079]

When i touch on upload and process.... It shows me "a web connection is required to upload and process your capture" what should i do?? Please help.... 🙏 I m connected to high speed wifi.... But still it is showing this.... 😢

[@sumitbasra]

hm that’s interesting. I’d reach out to their support and see if it could be an issue on their end!

[@divyanshdevmani4079]

@@sumitbasra thanks brother..... ❤️

[@sumitbasra]

@@divyanshdevmani4079 no problem!

[@amrel-mahdy5335]

when i use measure tool on the model it didn't give me the real measure that the model has how can i fix this ? I want exactly dimensions

[@ktt5054]

How do you cleanly remove the background noise and get a perfect base

[@sumitbasra]

I used PrusaSlicer to split the model right above the extra parts around the bottom and get a clean base!

[@arch.ayman-]

Thank you I do not speak English I need your help with polycam

[@jakeschwindt7393]

Do you know any good software to remove shadows from my stl file? I have done this exact method (thanks to you🙏) and have had issues trying to capture an image and getting shadows in it where I don’t want them

[@red4666]

how do you scan the bottom of the object? everything is always cut off from the ground.

[@sumitbasra]

that’s a good question lol I usually scan stuff with a flat bottom, but I’ll definitely experiment with some rounder objects!

[@jakeschwindt7393]

Are there any iPad apps that I can use instead of the app you used on your computer?

[@sumitbasra]

Shapr3D should be able to do that!

[@alexlo7708]

So , it uses cloud processing.

[@sumitbasra]

yep!

[@ologylabs2374]

Was the odd texture print due to the sparkles in the plastic?

[@sumitbasra]

I believe so!

[@saadalkhunaifer]

Do you know how to fix it crashing while processing

[@sumitbasra]

I haven't had that issue, unfortunately. Are you keeping the app open while it uploads and starts processing?

[@saadalkhunaifer]

@@sumitbasra yes the app just closes on its own

[@sumitbasra]

@@saadalkhunaifer that's definitely strange, I'd reach out to Polycam via Twitter, they seem to be pretty responsive!

[@saadalkhunaifer]

@@sumitbasra I’ll try that thanks

[@sumitbasra]

@@saadalkhunaifer no problem, hope it works out!

[@Kibz32]

i cant get this to work at all

[@sumitbasra]

what issues are you having?

[@Kibz32]

@@sumitbasra I literally just got it haha. And a lot of thanks to your video. So thank you. Would you have a recommendation of an editor?

[@sumitbasra]

@@Kibz32 awesome and I'm glad the video helped! are you looking to edit the scan? if you're on windows I'd just recommend Microsoft 3D Builder and for Mac I'd go with MeshMixer

[@fowzst]

These apps are awful….tried all of them, paid them and used the 15 Pro Max.

[@shaungoosen4199]

So basically it's crap
