sibarrick Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Hi all, Been playing in the hdk again, and have a first effort at an auto texture tiler. It comes from a paper by Petr Somol and Michal Haindl Novel Path Search Algorithm for Image Stitching and Advanced Texture Tiling I can't remember where I found the paper it was in siggraph, I'm sure a google search will turn it up if you are interested. Things yet to do are: 1. At the moment it tiles only in X, fairly trivial to extend it to Y too, just need the time. 2. Add blending funtion for areas that a good auto solution can't be found. 3. Extend to create families of tiles that remove obvious tiling patterns. Here's the first test file, compiled for H8.0.487 source included as always. It seems to work in H8.0.410 too so it probably works in a few production releases. TextureTiler_release.zip It takes a few seconds to cook so be patient. If you play with it please note turning up the Max step size beyond 2 will slow it down a lot! and the result won't change much. Turning it down to 1 makes it very quick but then you get artifacts. This is the result from just cropping and tiling And this is the result after applying the stitching algorithm Not bad eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenong Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 If this is what you do in your free time, please have more free time!!! You rock! I'll try to test it out, if I have some time. Cheers! steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
