RealityCapture Tutorial: Making Seamless Texture From Scans

In this video we show you how to bake textures onto an imported plane with a square UV, then export the textures and make them seamless using “Texture Paint” in Blender.

For treebark I would capture a complete cylindrical section of the trunk. Then use a cylinder as the lowres target. That way you get no tiling issues in one direction.

You should provide pictures and blend files.... it would be a great addition to this tutorial.

There's a render at the end and Displacement texture is obviously used there, but the video doesn't cover the issue of baking Displacement texture. It would be interesting to see this process, as it's the texture that does the magic.

[@suhasm8779]

Is it the same procedure for big models with number of different textures? If not, can you make a tutorial on it please

[@benveasey7474]

If you use the Addon Send to Unreal then will this texture export correctly?

[@longes1000]

I need to create a high-resolution texture from a 15-meter long piece of marble that is flat. I'm considering using RealityCapture or similar software to streamline the process.
Would you recommend capturing a video of the marble and letting the software handle the stitching directly from the video stream, or would it be better to capture individual high-resolution photos and feed those into the software?
What workflow and techniques would you suggest for a project of this scale to achieve the best results in terms of quality and efficiency?
Thanks for your insights!"

Hi, individual photos will be better. And for the capturing, you can check this tutorial: dev.epicgames.com/community/learning/paths/yzG/unreal-engine-capturing-reality-principles-of-photogrammetry-and-scanning

12:00 Can't you clone Diffuse and Normal maps in a single step (affecting both with each clone stroke)? Otherwise, artifacts are introduced and it is no different than doing in photoshop.

[@GnoyDavinski]

Save your time - 11:18, he's using stamp to hide seams... Pff.
When you have a full 3D model of a future texture, you can clone and shift it to get natural intersections and no seams.

[@r.k.hegeler9794]

so you get a flat, uninterrupted square defuse image? Whatever I do, I always get a diffuse image that has cut the textures into hundreds of pieces, my object thought is nearly flat nad the pane I brought in is flat 100%. any clue?

[@CapturingReality]

Hi Kai, have you checked the imported model's UVs inside Blender?

[@jurandfantom]

Who the hell are doing maps separate o-O you have inconsistent results, how we can possibly support that! It's so sooo wrong. 32k for all channels is possible for 32 bit and looking for way to scale method up to 49k. But chanel after chanel? No!

[@filibis]

I was so confused about that as well. Painting diffuse and normal maps seperately is absolutely wrong!

[@wonderboy75]

Is it possible to clone multiple textures simultaneously in Blender? In Substance Painter it easy, but how do you do it in Blender?

[@pacozalky721]

@@wonderboy75 Yes, by painting mask used on 2nd set of shifted textures.

[@N2oWiS]

... and now you have a seamless color texture wich is not identical to its corresponding normal texture ...
Awsome trick 😑👍
I was expecting a professional technique. Disappointing.

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa não voces atrapalharão meu vidio do red para mostra um epp de criar jogo ta de meme ne

[@Ahmedali_-qd9eg]

most of video about made texture by Blender, RC is not better , why you use free software ( Blender), Reality capture is not free!!!? Thanks Blender
