Can Max open any tracking data from a tracking software?

kapetanovicvanja — Fri, 25 Sep 2020 04:32:15 GMT

I have Mocha Pro but that won't export anything Max will read. After Effects can export something but even after conversion it's usually off or scale doesn't really work. I tried all scale combos. Is there special transcoder or how is it done? Tracking is already a nightmare on it's own I really need to find a software that will be solid for tracking in Max ..

Also is any of them used to actually create a 3D geometry of the scene (point cloud) ?

Please any advice. Thank you

P.S. I assume it will be PFTrack or Synthyes:)

I use Syntheyes with 3dsmax. There is a scale process where you have to link all tracking points you've imported to a "point" and scale the point itself.

Thank you for your input. Is that scaling process with every tracker or with Syntheyes?

Thank you

I wish I could help you but I have no experience with other trackings softwares regarding 3ds max. My guess every software will need some sort of scaling.

I heard pf track works and Bejou, I'd suggest to try blender because its free, not sure how it works with 3ds max though.
