Google Maps to Blender 2023

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this tutorial, I'll demonstrate how to take a Google Map image to create a 3D model in Blender. There are several caveats here, including using specific versions of RenderDoc, MapsModelsImporter and Blender.
Versions I'm using:
RenderDoc - v1.16
MapsModelsImport - v0.4.0
Blender - v2.93.6
Sources:
RenderDoc.org - renderdoc.org/builds
Github site for MapsModelsImport - github.com/eliemichel/MapsMod...
Blender - download.blender.org/release/...
Code to add to "Target" in your Google Chrome shortcut:
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c "SET RENDERDOC_HOOK_EGL=0 && START "" ^"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe^" --disable-gpu-sandbox --gpu-startup-dialog"
Key takeaways:
1. use these specific software versions
2. use Google Chrome
3. close out of all occurrences of Google Chrome when performing this task
4. be sure to include the correct path to your specific location of Google Chrome.

    Good stuff. Thanks for the explanation and a great tutorial. It works, hovewer sometimes the model is exported just partially, lacking some buildings in the crop area, streets etc. Do you possibly know why that happens? Is it better to export from the top view or perspective in google maps? Can't really find the reason why this is happening. Maybe it has something to do while moving the camera while capturing in Doc?

    Anyone know why my imported map data always has missing tiles? Sometimes it seems random, but a lot of the times the missing tiles represent areas of terrain at the lowest elevations. Not sure if that’s a pattern or not. Does anyone know in general what the logic is behind governing which tiles are actually imported? It’s not really reliable enough without that knowledge.

    The problem is Cesium (and presumably others which may come along) do not allow you to save the tiles, which kind of sucks. Streaming them is cool, but not really practical for any use other than just messing around. So until a blender add-on or Unreal Engine allows for easily saving the tiles (hopefully without low poly issues), it's still hard to beat this method.

    You may need to try the capture a few times until you get one with a much larger file size with more than 2 color passes.

    Hey! Thanks for the tutorial!! I'm not that handy with the computer, when I create the shortcut for Google and put in the Code with the right path (C:\Program files ect...) The shortcut opens the program file instead of opening the windows as shown. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong tbh... (I tried to close all tabs of chrome and even restarted my computer :/)

    Thanks for reaching out! That part can be tricky...after you create the shortcut and about to replace the path, try Control A to select all , then delete. Once this field is completely cleared, paste your path. Let me know if this helps? I've left remnant characters in this field and had similar results you're describing. Keep trying, sounds like you're on the right path!

    Thanks so much for reaching out. Sounds like once the Chrome Google GPU opens up, you're unable to retrieve the number correct? If so, try pressing ALT + TAB on your keyboard which illustrates all the windows currently opened. While holding down the ALT button, 'tap' the TAB button until you reach the Chrome Google GPU window. Please let me know if this is not the case and I'm not understanding!
