I am running RealityScan 2.0.1 on Linux. It works so far. I can align pictures, create meshes, color and texture them.
My Problem is the UI-Scaling. I hope someone can help me here.
- I can adjust the general zoom in winecfg. This leads to a pleasant text and ribbon size in the general view. Problem is, that the boxes for tooltips don’t scale, while the text does. It becomes unreadable.
- I can leave the general scaling be and adjust UI-scaling in RealityScan. Text and tooltips are fine then, but the ribbon does not scale.
- In neither variant I can get the dialogues scales correctly. They are always too bis. Actually so big, that most of them are unusable, because buttons are out of reach.
I think if we manage to scale the UI correctly there is no reason, why RealityScan should not run well on Linux. I can at least not see any differences in quality and speed comparing Windows and Linux. All tools seem to work.
If someone need help to install RealityScan on Linux:
- Create an Epic-Account
- Install the “Heroic Games Launcher” through your package manager
- Start Heroic, lo into your Epic-Account
- It should show RealityScan as installable - install it.
- run it once, maybe the wine-prefix needs some tweaking. It will install dependencies.
- Download “nvidia-libs” from https://github.com/SveSop/nvidia-libs
- Follow instruction in Gitlab to install it into the correct wine-prefix in your heroic-folder
- Run RealityScan.
- Go to settings, Choose correct GPU
