Can't align these two images
-
Hello,
I want to align two images, but i don't understand what im doing wrong, can't align them correctly.
Could anyone please check and see if you can make it work?

Sorry but I do not see how it would be related to SketchUp. What do you want to do with those images?
-
I want to model that. So i start with first image, put the perspective handles in place and start modeling. Then use the second image for scene 2, put perspective into right place again, scale the model, and well, the model is completely off from the backround image.
sorry if my wording was wrong, english isn't my native tongue. -

No worry, neither is mine.
So it's a photomatch issue then. To tell the truth, those images are not the best for this task. Ideally you would take the photos from about 45 degrees of the corners.

So what have you got so far in the model? Could you at least line up the first image? That looks like a better shot for the task.
-
Yes, i can work with the first picture, it lines up ok. Not really far into the modeling yet. http://art.tartu.ee/~erki.sinijarv/sketchup/station_progress.jpg
Guess i'll go and take more photos and from better places this time. But for photomatching sides and front, there isn't any point (woulnt work)? Better to import those as just an image for reference purposes?
-
For PhotoMatch purposes, best pictures are those which are taken from the corners - never sides and fronts.
To be honest, if you can easily access that place, the very best would be to take a couple of measurements, take pictures of the sides and fronts and forget about PhotoMatch in this case and model everything from scratch. PhotoMatch is best for those "blocky" (cube like) buildings that you can get good pictures from all around.
Also, here there are a lot of transparent faces and they would look really weird when PM'ed.

Ok, thank you for the info!
