@@m3dia_offline did you make sure that there is google maps 3d data available for the region you want to import? You can check this when you look up the region in google maps, toggle to satellite and press the "3D" button in the lower right corner.

The Google import has the option 'Relative to Initial Import' which is probably grabbing adjacent tiles - Its a tick box on screen! Yes, 'Hidden in plain sight' :o)
I came up with this solution. It's a python script for blender that loops through all the created materials and changes the shader. czcams.com/video/7gi0-nVrsnM/video.html

We have difficulty removing part of blender model (import from 3d google map) without effecting other part (will remove other model and texture map). Anyone has good workaround for this? Thank you very much in advance!
Would be very useful to know if you can import multiple Google Map Tiles times and also at multiple detail levels. So firstly can I import an area and then decide I want to extend it and import a bit more after? And if so how hard would it be to import a very large low-medium detailed area like you did, but then make a smaller area of it high detail? Because I imagine most people would want a high detail smaller area or coridor without having the background/context also being super high detail. Like I wanted to redesign a street using GMaptiles and just want the road and buildings along the street to be high detail but then everything else low detail, that doesn't seem possible going by your video.
When you select a portion of the map with longitude and latitude, how does that quantify or calculate to *Maximum 300 root tileset queries per day, Maximum 250,000 renders tiles request, Rate limit is 12,000 queries per minute.* What does that mean?

If only AI could simply rerender or replace it as an openworld city, only thing you have to do as a dev is to focus on key point places you want to adjust for your game. This would help make openworld games a lot more easy rather then waiting 10 years or more for a GTA game.

But when you need a specific thing… it’s ilarious what you achieve and it seems like: - “intelligence” quit the chat - , leaving you just with “artificial”.

Yeah, pretty much sucked getting started. Trying to get a Key requires me to enter my card number. That's when I bail.
Is anyone else having trouble with download speeds? I can access the Google API fine but am stuck loading .json files forever!
Have you tried reducing the resolution of your download? The High Res data is REALLY big
Thank you for the response, the problem was something related to my network connection. Separately, have you experimented with exporting the material files alongside an OBJ file? I want to bring it into Rhino and I've found that after 'upacking' the textures the OBJ file doesn't know where they are located. @@TheCGEssentials
is this legal to use commercially?
Is this a realistic software to use for game modeling?
Sure
Thank you for the tutorial, When I tried to use it, I only got the 3d models in grey. There are no other colours. Do you know how I can add them? Do I need to get all the API keys?
Did you fix this?
cambiando el modo viewport
Under scene on the top right side of blender, you can switch the view to texture by clicking the down arrow there. That will make it look how you want
Kinda vague.
With more details program crashes all the time and i got no potato pc
Same here.
Realized its computed in cloud so my potato pc was not the problem because i bought far more powerful and it takes forever. Anyway it would be useless because its some triangual objects wich are not great for 3D printing. @@DeltaStridePLZ
why oyu need to pay for api key? i can not use it?"i will free
I have a question can you go inside buildings with this
yeah sure genius, now show how to get those KEYS to use this.
Man, what an absolute ball ache to set up. But cool once it is. Just wish the bloody materials weren't emissive. As it stands, you have to go through (in my case 800!) material slots to make them not be self illuminating.
hey me, you can use a 3rd party tool that condenses/bakes all the materials into one. No idea what it's called though.
If only AI could simply rerender or replace it as an openworld city, only thing you have to do as a dev is to focus on key point places you want to adjust for your game. This would help make openworld games a lot more easy rather then waiting 10 years or more for a GTA game.

Thought I owned this plugin, but apparently the author decided to close the old shop and re-release it?
You can always download the latest version using the link in your purchase/download confirmation email
I think he had some issues with Gumroad when he moved between countries and it wouldn't let him update that old account. As far as I know though, you should still be able to download the updated version through your old purchase link (at least I could)
@@TheCGEssentials I updated it. Thanks for the info guys.
Ai will overcome
U are AI?
Until now, and I use AI, absolutely not. If you want to have fun and create something it works. But when you need a specific thing… it’s ilarious what you achieve and it seems like: - “intelligence” quit the chat - , leaving you just with “artificial”. It’s faster do it by yourself (and it allow you much more quality).
why you make a tutorial and say its free than you need stupid key to pay i dont like that
As much as i like your vids, your "WHATS UP GUYS" is bloody annoying ...
lol
As always, super useless
wtf dude why is this so hjard why cant it just fucking work? a credit card wtf man this is terrible. WE GET A 3d MODEL WHEN WE USE THE BROWSER BUT W CANT DOWNLOAD IT?> WTF BRO
