For such a task, I like using GIMP's perspective correction tool instead, with "Backward" mode enabled. You highlight a rectangle around your object of interest, press Enter, and it warps it back facing you head-on perfectly. May need to work with aspect ratios a little, but eh.

Technically the largest form of theft is wage theft; but I don't see small cafe owners being choked to death by the knee of a sub-IQ police officer for shortchanging their staff by $20, so maybe best not get into technicalities unless you're ready to dive deep on the intrinsic amorality of the society we live in, and the very real reality that crime, just like theft money and time are simply constructs we have devised, and have no real objective meaning.

This is a good technique! On a related note, if you're shooting the pictures yourself, and the surface isn't as flat (like a brick wall or a chunky manhole cover, or even a whole building), you can use a slightly different technique. Just use photogrammetry software to align the images and then use that result to bake out your color map. You don't have to bake normal/height/etc maps if you don't need them, you can use it simply as a way to get a better color map. It's also a great way to increase the detail in the texture, especially for big surfaces. The great thing is, if you don't need the mesh the photogrammetry software will produce, you can shoot waaaay fewer images to still get a good color map. Also, try out different blending modes, such a min or max intensity. These can be really useful for killing highlights or shadows/vignetting in your images.

great vid! U always give very specific info with very broad applications. Really gets people inspired as to what’s possible instead of following someone click 4 click

This one is still mindblowing years later.

There is a perspective crop tool in Photoshop which aligns an image according to the shape that you set it and makes it flat.

I was at the bank taking a photo of some dirt on a window-sill. A employee asked what i was doing. "Just robbing you blind."

I love the vibes of this channel, feels like learning how to hack in a cyberpunk movie.

Office Lense does this automatically, i figured out i could do it with posters shortly after downloading it to take pictures of the whiteboard back in school, also amazing for documents (a lot better if you have a good camera on your phone)

Apart from everything else, I enjoy the subtle and occasionally extremely un-subtle Bostonness of your videos. (“look under the Hood” was another good one from a recent vid)

Texture stealing is one of my favorite activities when I am bored. I should release my 473 textures for free. _or maybe for a couple bucks hmmm yes now were thinking with portals_

My teacher says: "You can steal every program or image or whatever because you're a student and you'll get no profit for any of your works and I'll evaluate as a professional, so you will also get a low grade"

Love this style! Very entertaining! Please more!

That's why I love you CGMatter :D This workflow opens endless possibilities. How to do this procedurally?

You can use the Handle tool in Gimp to do the perspective correction.

Once again mate, you've been awesome and I've been amazed. Very good. Cheers.

Excellent. This solves the problem I have with several bazillion GB of my bad photography I've taken around town. Never can get things aimed straight on. Now I can do whole stone walls and bldg facades. Oh, and it worked best when I switched the mapping from Window to UV coordinates after applying the baked texture to my material. How could I bake a height map from this texture for use in EEVEE? Thanks. Can't wait for the next video on cylinders. Got tons of tree photos I want to extract the bark from. I can crop/make seamless images in photo editing software, but then the trees in Blender usually look crappy and reptilian, or there are seams I can't get rid of. Thanks again, this is a great technique.

Man you are best, you advice something and im even having such fun to watching your videos :D good job :D

You do this for a whole scene with a camera locked down and boom! It's time to do some sick VFX stuff

Amazing content, presentation and editing.

0:25 Bonestripper!!! love that band!!

1:26 That's how CG matter grabs our attention xD

Your video is so satisfying to watch lol

Neat. That being said, I just do this sort of thing in GIMP. You just use the perspective tool in corrective mode. Align the four corners to the object, then just clean up (eg, correct the aspect ratio, erase the sky/whatever around something like a stop sign, etc) and export. Done. Takes like 20 seconds, works like magic. As for stealing... hey, there are plenty of public domain images you can yoink textures from this way. :D

2:09 everyone look up the legal term "de minimus" and the Se7en movie lawsuit. basically, the set decorator got a giant pile of photos and put them on the wall for a scene. one of the photographers sued the movie studio for not getting permission. the judge ruled that whether THAT particular photo was present or not, didn't matter to the overall movie, so therefore the suit was not valid.... or something like that. www.rcfp.org/minimal-appearance-photos-film-insufficient-suit/

That is a mean loophole... It wasn't just one but several photos and they were visible for 90 seconds. The judge said that they were out of focus and not easily identifiable (even though the photographer obviously was able to identify them)... I think the studio's lawyers were too well connected and exploited that loophole.

I'm not a blender user but this video is fun lol... Actually, this method seems to be able to applied using other tools.

I love this channel.

a 1000% easier way to do this is to use photoshop to perspective warp the source image so that whatever surface you want to make into a texture is flat/fully facing the camera

"Okay, so I got it down to about 30 sentences." CGMatter : I only need one.

Lol this is pretty much the sentiment for the older gta games. Take textures from real places and stuff. Apply them to game objects.
