Image Modeller did go away but the tech behind it has come back as Autodesk 
ReCap - http://www.autodesk.com/products/recap/overview


123d Catch is just a simplified consumer version of the same thing. ReCap Photo 
is the pro version and offers greater flexibility.

Essentially it's all cloud based, so you get your pictures upload them to our 
cloud, and then run ReCap photo, you can make tweaks and target points to 
improve the accuracy. Meshes can be generated in formats such as FBX (of 
course), OBJ, DXF, etc.

You can then take them into ReCap Pro, which is a standalone desktop 
application for viewing scan data. You can then make various edits etc before 
them exporting your data. ReCap pro can also import scan data from other 
sources.

Image modeller is very precise, 123d catch and the rest may be fine but it is 
not the very accurate modelling you are used with IM...

I really think are two different things altogether.

Hi all,

As Image Modeler still works, but slowly starting to show it's age (no HDRI 
/32bit file input), I'm looking for something similar.
Something I can use to (re)create a scene from a HDRI panorama or set of 
stills, and being able to project the HDRI image back on top of the geo.
After that export to FBX or alike and import into Softimage.

Unfortunately 16bit is the best you get with ImageModeler. It's too bad the app 
is dead now..... :-\

So.... Tips and links appreciated.

P.S. I know about Nuke's 8 new modeling tools, but that's a bit on the 
expensive side, same with Mari ;-)

cheers,



Rob
