Photogrammetry And Video Games

A few posts back talked about photogrammetry to work with the video game Diablo 3 Eternal Collection and it didn’t work out so good.  Last year some time tired this some thing with my ship from No Man’s Sky and that didn’t work as well.  That being said gave the ship another try and had some better results.  The program managed to scan the ship.  There are some problems with a bunch of holes in the ship.  So looking into seeing if I can fix those.  If I can do that.  Than it could be turned into a 3D printable model.  The picture below is from the 3D scan and you can see the holes in the wing.

Photogrammetry

A few posts back talked about trying to get photogrammetry to work with the video game Diablo 3 Eternal Collection.  When you pause the game you seen what your character looks like and it can be spun around.  Was think that might be useful in the 3D program.  Well I gave it many tries and it didn’t work.  Am thinking because the program has no reference  to where the character is to the background.  Oh well, it was worth a try.  Am thinking I will try again with a real world object.  Will be back with another update.

Diablo 3 Eternal Collection

During last years (2019) black Friday sale picked up a copy of Diablo 3 Eternal Collection.  The main reason for buying this was for the four player co-op.  We have game nights every now and again. So it’s prefect for that.  Didn’t get around to tying it out until the other night.  Going to start off with saying this is an awesome game.  It looks good and plays even better.  Played three player co-op.  There was never any slow down or hiccups.  The user inventory screen is different than I seen in any game before.   Very user friendly.  Think the best part is when playing there is not fighting over gold and loot.  All gold picked up is even equal to each player.  As for he loot each item is marked for the individual.  It doesn’t matter who picks it up.  It goes right to the inventory of who can use it.  The plan is very time we have game night will play to see if we can beat it.

Black Friday 2019

The past two years didn’t bother with Black Friday.  Well this year decided to take a look.  Need a few things at Walmart any way.  So after work went to the electronic section to see if they had any PS4 games on.  Turns out they had a two big cardboard shippers filled with PS4, Xbox One and Switch games.  Some of them I had all ready and a few I didn’t care about.  Did buy two for my collection,  Doom (2016) and Diablo 3 Eternal Collection.  Have tried Doom before and every since wanted to get a copy.  As for Diablo never tired it.  It was a great price and as local co-op.  So next game night will be trying it out.
