First test importing into Postshot went perfectly - alignment looks perfect - so far, very promising thank you!

That's fantastic news - thank you for adding this. I will test, as I am sure many other excited people will do also, and report back on the findings.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Feature Requests / Export COLMAP in standard
« on: June 18, 2024, 04:17:39 PM »
Most Gaussian Splatting and NERF creation packages require colmap camera and pointcloud format. It transpires that only the pro version of Metashape can export this format - this seems a bit remis to me.
Please can you add the COLMAP export function into both versions? Thanks!

Hi,
This is more or less exactly the same question I need to answer as well -
I have started exporting the model, recreating the UV maps and bringing them back in for texturing, but now I would like to be able to use two maps so that I can have higher resolution image for selected uv maps - however, when you have the "keep UV" option selected in metashape, there is only an option to have one image texture -
Is it possible to import a model keep its UV map and assign textures to each UV map?
It is possible to texture in Metashape and use multiple texture maps, so seems odd it cannot be done the other way around -
Thanks.

General / Version 1.6.0 Normal Map export??
« on: September 24, 2019, 08:50:44 PM »
Hi, I see in the changelog for Version 1.6.0th that it is possible to export normal maps with .OBJ format, yet I see no such option in any menu items or during export ... am I missing something?

Feature Requests / Re: Improved mesh detail
« on: January 17, 2019, 05:58:42 PM »
Basically, it's a subdivided mesh (two or three levels) and then the texture baked into the mesh using a displacement modifier. Not so hard to do in Blender or Z-Brush, but would in my opinion be a very handy thing to be able to do out of the box.

« on: January 17, 2019, 02:28:47 PM »
Hi,
Whilst looking at ways to manually texture the meshes, I came across this video of a technique used in Z-Brush which displaces the mesh using the texture maps (the result is around 7 minute onward in the video .
Would it be possible to add this mesh texture displacement option in Metashape? It seems to be a very worthwhile function to make the output significantly better than it is already?

Hi Alexey,
Thanks for analysing the log.
Yes, I have the latest Nvidia driver (currently - 417.35)

Hi Alexey,
Thanks for the reply. I'm just running it right now using CPU only, when it finishes the run (or errors out) I'll send the log.

General / Not enough Memory - yet memory visibly not being used in resource monitor
« on: January 03, 2019, 12:31:50 PM »
Hi,
Much asked question, I have read all the threads on this subject, but none seem to mention like me that the memory is not actually being used anyway near its full potential.
I only have 32GB RAM installed on a windows 10 Pro (so can use all of RAM) OS, yet I keep getting "out of memory" errors, yet resource monitor shows that there is significantly over half the RAM free at all times.
I had been using GPU processing with use CPU and GPU compute option checked, I am now trying Just CPU in case it is a GPU RAM issue, not the PC, the GPU is only 2GB memory, so this could be the issue perhaps? its a GTX 680
Currently running the same problematic run right now and metashape is only using 2GB of memory whilst building mesh - yet it will fail on memory.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Feature Requests / Align model to plane based on selected points
« on: September 12, 2018, 11:32:33 AM »
It is very hard to align the model using the axis rotation as it is purely guesswork on visual estimation of horizontal and vertical axis.
An option to align a model based on selected points (three as a minimum or average of more than three) so that true alignment can be achieved.
Considering the whole point of the software is to create real-world models, it seems bizarre there isn't an easy way to rotate the model accurately.
This would be a VERY handy addition to functionality and save a lot of time during setup. Thanks!

Exporting from Meshlab solved this for me - thanks for suggestion.

Please can you add support for the 3DConnexion space mouse? Thanks.
