Showcase: Deadtree with Metashapes mesh from depth maps.

[Willi Hammes]

Hi,

just wanted to share some of my latest scan with Metashape, it's part of a much larger array of scans I did last week.

This one was made from 86 photos, 24 MPixel, using Metashapes mesh from depth maps feature.
The mesh is 18 Million triangles with a 16k texture. Took 4 hours to process on 2x RTX 2080Ti at Ultra High detail setting.

You can see more, and higher res images here:

Nice work as usual Willi.

What are you using for UV Unwrapping when processing/creating the real-time assets?

Cheers

Thanks Mak.

most of the time I use Unwrella for 3dsmax to unwrap the low poly.

Willi,
Good to know. I've just started using a mix of InstaLOD (for auto-unwrappin) & RyzomUV to clean it up. Seems to do the trick especially for organic type meshes.

Side note: The AO & and Normal maps baking feature in Metashape 1.6 Preview are surprisingly resulting in vastly better bakes than Substance or Marmoset. No artifacts at all on complex meshes.

Oh that looks good. I haven't had a change to try it yet, but will do as soon as I'm done processing all the new scans
