VR presentation of apartment renovation

Pixero

That's great stuff!

I'm doing similar experiments at the moment.

Is that one model or did you decorate each room in a seperate file? I always have a problem with huge files.

The final Thea render file contained more than ten merged SU files, so several for each room.

Jan, this is really, really great to see...!

I also did the panorama GUI programming and linking.

How did you do this...?

Real nice; I wish there had been a renderer that had the capability to render a model directly to a panorama(s), rather than taking individual renders and stitching afterwards (pardon my grammar). It would be really neat.

Gaieus

Thea (and Kerkythea and Twilight) can do that - and probably that's how Jan did it. When talking about stitching, he was mentioning the photos he was taking for the "before" shots.

oganocali

D'oh!

jo-ke

I'm rendering my panos directly with twilight.

camera tab: type of render: "spherical"

Ok iv being reading up a lot on this stuff lately since you posted this topic, how on earth do I even start to do this sort of thing?

That's... that's a MODEL?

Clearly you are from Sweden. I recognize the navigation arrows on the house floor. They use the same scheme on the floor of my local IKEA store.

Yeah, they're Swedish road signs.

What Software did you use for the presentation? I like the Floorplan.

Jo-ke,

Not sure what Pixero used exactly but you might have a look at Garden Gnome's Pano2VR, here, http://gardengnomesoftware.com/pano2vr.php

The video gives a good overview also their are some good samples on their forums of what others are producing.

I used Pano2VR.

Indigo Renderer (>3.6.0) has a new spherical camera type for this, but some exporters need to be updated before everyone can use this...

Pixero

I rendered it in Thea with Spherical camera 6000x3000 pixels.
Then in pano2VR it gets converted to six "cube" images.

Ah, OK thank you!

I will try that.
