I am having issues with a project failing. I have tried in both preview and ultra mode with no luck. My photos are taken with a GoPro 3+ Silver from a DJI Phantom. I have submitted projects both straight off the GoPro and have defished them in Photoshop. Is their documentation or any other information that someone could direct me to for pointers on something that I may be missing that could have caused these to fail.
If anyone cares to take a look at the photos that I am submitting, they are at
I did. My issues seemed to be that I was using a GoPro Silver, which aparently is not compatible. I upgraded to a GoPro Black and had much better luck. Not sure that helps you though?
Hi rjziemer,
From the projects that fail we found that is one of these two issues:
- either your A360 storage soaceis full and the system doesnt have space to save it ( please check the size of your storage and aboslutely make sure you delete your Trashbin)
- or there are issues with the photos ( blurry photos, not enough overlap, non adequate light (shadows or use of flash), strong shadows or shiny and glossy objects.
can you let us know if its the first p=point and if not, could you share your folder on A360 with recap360@autodesk.com so we can take a look at your photos and advise?

hiya, so do check (just in case) the Trashbin of the A360 account ( go to www.autodesk360.com, under Documents you can see all your projects and the Trashbin is on the left side)
if space is still not the issue, do please share the project folder with recap360@autodesk.com so we can look and advise 🙂
thanks!

Hi and welcome to our forum,
You can try to resubmit your project, it's free of charge if you have used cloud credits for "ultra" mode the first time.
This is a little older video, but it describes very well the basics of taking the "right" photos:

Also the last couple of pages on this guide might be helpful:

However, if you don’t have enough overlap (every 5 degrees or so) this can be very difficult to achieve.
Hope this will help,

Hi,
If subsets of your pictures have been registered together you should get at least a project/mesh with thoses pictures.
Than, as you said, you can start help manually by adding matches. Seems like you have nothing that registered at all...
Is you building very shiny ? reflecting the environment or the sky ?

There are some metal parts that have some shine to them but it doesn't give me anything back at all. Would it be better to add just a couple photos at a time to try to get something out of it? I figured the more photos and angles, the better, but it just fails no matter what I've tried so far.
I put the exact same set of photos into 123D Catch and it at least gave me a partial wall. I thought ReCap would be better
Hi,
Trying to upload a subset of your pictures should not change anything... if recap finds a subset of the full list that matches enough for registration, it is sent back...
So its probably due to shiness, refelxions, or too "planar" buildings.
If you share the data to recap360@autodesk.com we can have a look at the pictures.
