I used image modeler several times and it works great, is a really simple but precise tool. It sucks that it isn't available
for sale anymore... As for banzai pipeline, the last time I spoke with their support rep this is what he told me: "...Enwaii is currently Maya centric. In London most of the companies use Maya and it seems to be the same situation in many places so we targeted Maya first. But it is good to know that many companies are XSI centric in Montreal. At the moment we do not plan to develop a XSI version but if it changes I will let you know." so I am guessing that won't come anytime soon.. I haven't used agisoft photoscan, but its good to hear people use it regularly for vfx I will try to find some time to test it out... Lately i've been more keen to explore a photogrammetry pipeline with a matchmove software such as 3Equalizer... might be overkill I know... but I am curious to see it used for that. In the end I only need an app to solve a sequence of photos and give me a point cloud with modeling cameras that I can import in xsi or maya to do the actual "modeling"... that's what I liked from image modeler.. it gave you only what you needed being the point cloud and the cameras and all the modeling was handled in the 3D app itself, being better suited for that. I like this thread.. :) -Manu IMDB | Portfolio | Vimeo | Linkedin Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2014 16:58:31 +0100 From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Photogrammetry - what do you use? Still using imagemodeler over here. Nuke 8 has some interesting ways of creating pointclouds from a bunch of images and linking hdri's: http://youtu.be/dRpLNoSSUlM?t=44m31s I've had a similar question a while ago about image modeler alternatives, might be interesting to have a look there too.
