Blurry textures (small part of the project vs entire project)

Development Asset Creation

Hi.

I spent tons of hours with different approaches and I tried to find some solutions online but I couldn’t. You are my last hope guys:)

I’m working on a bigger project. Building itself was traversed around with total station and then photograph with handheld camera and the drone. No scan data.

I aligned the photos using ground control points and I’m happy with the results.

Before meshing and texturing entire project I run the test which was 11mln of tris (one of the building cornes- please see on the attached images). I was very happy with the mesh and textures- amount of details was satysfying.

Small part of the project as a test:

Level of quality and details for the test part:

I run the entire project with the same settings (16kx16k; fixed texel size, gutter 2, 100% texture quality, 0.0015mm optimal texel size)

But the results were far away from what I was expecting to get.
The entire project was 350mlns of tris.

Level of quality and details for the entire project:

Any ideas why the small part of entire project looks great and then the entire project itself gets blurry and loose so many details?

Both models were created with normal level of details

 

My settings for mesh/texturing:

 

Thanks for any advises as I’m spinning around for a good week now:(

Hi there!

I checked your texturing settings, and they are good. Fixed texel size and with the texel size set to optimal RC will generate 100% texture quality. 

Your model has 33 16K textures. RC can render up to a single 16K texture in the real-time viewport. So that is why it is not a texturing problem but a viewing problem. You are looking at a downsampled one 16K texture. You have the correct textures but cannot display them in real time. 

Try to render an image of the textured model and check the texture quality.

Hi Jakub,

Thank you for your reply and yes- rendered orthophoto looks very detailed and crisp. 
It’s a shame I didn’t thought about it before so I could save about 80hrs of different ways of processing haha xD

Thanks again,
All the best and I’m looking forward to see more of your YT tutorials :slight_smile:

Damian.
