360° Screenshot?

[kp3]

[QUOTE=Biotoxsin;15528958]I wonder if you could use a screenshot taken like this to make a 2d skybox...[/QUOTE]

Read the whole thread. I posted exactly how to do that in the second or third post.
[B]Edit:[/B]
Actually, 5th post. Read it.

[Lord Ned]

Yeah I"m leaving 30% overlap. I take six images (0, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300). Experimenting with taking 18 images. (45 up and 45 down of each)

PLEASE GIVE FULL INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO GET A PIC LIKE ABOVE FROM THE MOMENT STARTING GMod :P

[Lord Ned]

Open GMod.... Load a map. Pull out the camera tool. Go to the spot you want to take the pictures from.

Put this in console:
sv_cheats 1
setang_exact 0 0
Now, press F5. Do NOT touch the mouse.
setang_exact 0 60
F5
setang_exact 0 120
F5
setang_exact 0 180
F5
setang_exact 0 240
F5
setang_exact 0 300
F5.

Now, go into photoshop (Or other software) and merge them.

AND CAPITALS DO NOT HELP YOU.

This script will do it for you :-)

[HiddenMyst]

You should probably change your FOV before you start.

[Chryseus]

yeah I noticed it did not work very well, so I've changed it now.

[Seibitsu]

Bravo good work.
I'll try the last script that Chryseus tried^^

How did you achieve it so that the image is rounded and has no overlaps?

Fixed this cause I had a bookmark :)

[Lord Ned]

My script is better then that and it takes duplicate images. So will yours.

bind f6 PanCamPreview

SEKCobra: Six images like above, combined with the "Auto" setting on Photoshop's PhotoMerge. (File->Automate->Photomerge). Then crop the top and the bottom.

There's also a script on [url]www.csfour.com[/url] under Resources to make it loop perfectly.

[SEKCobra]

When i do this, i just get 1 pic with full white alpha, all three other pics have full black alpha ;(

[editline]08:08PM[/editline]

Does it save pfm at you when you use the env_cubemap thingi?

[Lord Ned]

I dunno, I use Screenshot which writes TGA's in TF2. Not sure about GMod.

All done by hand ^

Needed barely any stitching.

[Chryseus]

That don't appear to be 360 degrees

[Lord Ned]

That doesn't loop Hypno.

[hypno-toad]

So what?

The only people that really care are over critical assholes.

[I]"hay this pictures is only 340 degress D:< !!!1!11!"[/I]

Sorry if you feel you are missing out on that 20 degrees of hedgerow and blank road.

[Lord Ned]

It doesn't make a perfect loop, it's not very suitable for panoramas.

So I assume these are too.

[Wokkel]

ofcourse they are, but scripts can be run with the "exec" command, I am wondering where the .txt file goes.

Just enter them in the console.

[editline]05:15PM[/editline]

It's not that hard, is it?

[Wokkel]

a script is easier, and that is exactly what it is made for.
If you not see the point in that don't tell me how to do it your way.

[~ZOMG]

I understand that, but you could have already done it if you'd just entered them in one by one.

[Lord Ned]

Save it as a cfg in your folder and run exec name.

[L-NAESA]

[QUOTE=SEKCobra;15557599]Which way have you made that theyre round and ther´re no "edges"?[/QUOTE]

I'd hate to say this is going to be impossible. Lord Ned this pic also has a potential train derailment problem.

[GunskiMod]

I saved a sript a long time ago.

Yeah me too, I remember trying to do it in L4D and it crashing on me... Then never trying again.
