I know all these videos are ads and I don't even work in this field but they're all still very fascinating.

[@Kathir.T]

What I have gathered from these videos: 1)Photorealistic rendering in CG 2)Whatever these guys at Poliigon have done, "took hours of time"!

[@teslacine]

hahahahaaaa the number 2 is just like a traditional Brazilian quote: "The baby who doesn't cry, doesn't get breastfeeding..." (bebê que não chora, não mama)

Very nice. Could you ad some skins textures on poliigon? Thx

[@DocWolph]

You should be able to use video to get your sample images. High quality, 4K, in a big view area should work in most cases and it would be a LOT faster and less prone to altering the scene you are trying to get photoscanned.

[@monopita]

in the future we won't need a backyard, there's just gonna be a VR set by your back door and these textures.

Your textures are also small and tiling is obvious.

[@Meteotrance]

Substance designer now can process photoscan normal map in some degree but in controled environement light source, maybe i should buy a pro handy scanner to have accurancy, and finish the surfacing with a couple of polarised lens photo. but polygon is a realy good idea to speed up this painfull process of surfacing.

something is wrong with poliigon.com. keeps giving me 404 error saying "You hit and old plaster wall" when i try to download a free texture. so i registered for a free trial. checked my email and it said: "This sender failed our fraud detection checks and may not be who they appear to be." whats goin on Andrew? did your website get hacked? cuz nothing is working.

I photoscanned a log the other day, it took my PC (6700k) 3 hours to calculate the high res cloud in photoscan. I think I'm going to need a seperate PC for this.

[@deanagar4062]

You had me at “their capture sizes are far too small”. What use is a 2m x2m texture from CGAxis or Megascans when my ground is 500m to 1km long? Zero use, that’s how much!

[@cortana324]

Are those scans usable for games? As in, aren't they too heavy for most machines? Or do they like support LOD or any form of optimizations?

[@wpp2595]

battlefield 5 uses photoscanned stuff, alot of new games use it infact

[@adlerkampf]

Use quixel they have premande lod and it is free

Would you have any tutorial on scanning method and process coz i want to do my displacement map like you have ? To be Original on my self ! By the way I am C4D user ,but I saw your teaching ( tutorial ) and I like YOUR Perspective on 3D and Composition staffs ! Thank you !

Is there somewhere a tutorial how to make a photoscanned GROUND into seamless textures? (all of the maps, not just diffuse)...? Couldnt find it when i was looking for it few months back

[@2016rocklee]

How to use PBR maps in 3dsMax+Vray?

[@Lone.Willow]

Beautiful textures, but I do think you should call it by its industry standard, and scientifically accurate name of Photogrammetry, not Photoscanning. Accuracy is more important than a cool proprietary name here.

[@justlotfy]

Hi, just checked the new textures, congratulations...is it possible to add the real size(dimensions), so we can save the guesswork time?

[@IGarrettI]

Thanks Andrew. ! I'll check out megascans for sure

[@SalveMonesvol]

Can this be used for freely distributed mods?

[@Z0mbieKaralis]

I have some questions I'm new to this stuff and I wanted some textures and models but I have no skill to make them and I've always wanted to make a video game and hopefully if I think what I've created is good put it up on steam for a fair price I hear mention of a subscription thing or something With that could I use these textures in a game that I am making profit from? I mean of course with full permission but even with said permission would that be frowned upon as I'm not creating my own textures? If I have to learn and make them myself I will but as of right now I'm a one man team and so I'd have to learn everything from coding to models and textures to story and even art by myself

[@Radial9Gaming]

Making your own textures is very difficulty and most of the time someone has done a better job. Big companies use already made textures as well. You are not supposed to do everything in a game by yourself, simply because it's way too much for one person to do. And yes, you can use these textures however you see fit. That's why you're paying for them.

Nice, what software you use for photogrametrie ? to have the scanned reconstruction ? just curious to test this tech ;)

Matthieu Barbié Agies Photoscan works well.Check out Alex Alvarez the founder of Gnomon School of visual effects video to learn the proper and best workflow of Photoscan.Just Google it.Its available on KZbin.Its one of the best explanation/presentation ever given on photoscanning techniques.

[@JohnAldred]

I used to use Agisoft Photoscan, but ended up switching to VisualSFM and Meshlab. It's a more involved process, but I feel it offers me a lot more control.

Hi John, oki thanks for your answer, I'll test Photoscan ;)

[@LyubomirIko]

To call the creators content mafia only mean you are brain dead. + I use few cracked programs. I just cant afford them right now. But I strongly avoid the use of any illegally acquired assets.

[@titan9706]

is this possible in video games?

[@DorfDork]

Yes but would not recommend. Video games tend to have a lot less polygons for maps and characters. Usually characters in next gen games are around 10,000 - 30,000 polygons. Maps which tend to have far less detail than characters on average are like that to save on loading times and taxing cpu/gpu performance. Running a map from this video onto a video game would most likely cause the game to not even load at all or cause extreme slowdown.

[@christiansanchez7448]

TzKetDeath isn't this how the new battlefield and battlefront games do it though? Like the forest maps look stunning, sometimes I don't even focus on the objective and I just look at the environment. The displacement is so nice for every rock, leaf, and branch

[@Radial9Gaming]
