Tim's right - this is the wrong channel (this channel is for discussions related to https://beta.icosa.gallery/ ).

Post to #bugs-and-issues about the crashing issue.

To briefly address your other question - the "best" version to use rather depends on you. Use the main Open Brush release or the beta unless you specifically want to use bleeding edge experimental features: https://docs.openbrush.app/alternate-and-experimental-builds/

My apologies, I’m new to this community and didn’t understand what icosa gallery was.
Happy you posted a link to it! I registered an account. I’m gonna try to upload some of my scenes to there.

May I ask will my 3D imported models, 2d assets and .mp4 videos I’ve added to my scene all appear in icosa gallery?

Thanks for the help.
I will look into what version of openbrush is best for my use case.

Mana👽•2/15/24, 10:10 PM

I have not been able to get any of my .glb files to work on ICOSA yet :/

does it take a while after you upload or something?

@mikesky - I'm seeing a console error in icosa-viewer.module.js

andybakOP•2/16/24, 8:26 AM

It's pretty inscrutable (at least to me)

andybakOP•2/16/24, 8:26 AM

@Mana

can you DM me the matching .tilt file?

Aandybak @Mana👽 can you DM me the matching .tilt file?

Just sent you a DM!

andybakOP•2/19/24, 3:43 PM

@Mana

can confirm it's nothing you're doing wrong. Not sure what the problem is with that file.

andybakOP•2/19/24, 3:49 PM

@mikesky Blender and Icosa choke on that file but it loads fine into our Toolkit and into https://modelviewer.dev/editor/

andybakOP•2/19/24, 3:50 PM

Blender gives a more helpful error

andybakOP•2/19/24, 3:52 PM

@mana - the "stars" brush strokes around the middle of the flower - can you erase them or something to see if it fixes it? that's where Blender stops loading the scene.

Mana👽•2/21/24, 12:13 AM

strange. ok I can try that

Petra•3/28/24, 1:03 PM

Hi there, I tried uploading glb files to Icosa, but it only shows a black screen? What did I do wrong?

mikesky•3/28/24, 1:04 PM

@andybak correct me if i'm wrong, but you'll also need to upload the brush images that were alongside the glb as well

mikesky•3/28/24, 1:04 PM

it's a bug right now i'm afraid, working on it

Mmikesky @andybak correct me if i'm wrong, but you'll also need to upload the brush image...

andybakOP•3/28/24, 1:04 PM

Yes - you have to multiselect all the files in the glb folder. (you'll see an error after upload but you can ignore that)

Petra•3/28/24, 1:10 PM

Alright, I'll try again, thanks!

I couldn't figure out how to download it. Actually recorded one the other day, then waited about 30 hours for it to process.
Seemed there used to be a way. Maybe have to have a subscription?

James Tunick•8/12/24, 2:11 AM

Luma app for iPhone or droid allows video upload. Usually takes 5-10min to process. No subscription needed. Can view via their website & download, then load in Unity or Unreal via pluggin. Highly recommend. Workflow, compression & quality improves constantly… https://apps.apple.com/us/app/luma-ai/id1615849914

AncientWorlds•8/12/24, 8:51 AM

I'm on android. I was able to upload and process the video (currently takes 1-2 days if not a subscriber).
What I want to do, if possible is download the ply/splat/model whatever is produced.
I thought this used to be an option, but looks like can only download the video now?

AncientWorlds•8/12/24, 8:58 AM

Depends on what level of the creative process you want to work with. It costs a fortune and requires a huge number of people, typically to make a feature length film.
If my goal is to tell a story, then I'm perfectly happy editing clips together. People build scenes using models all the time, rather than painstakingly craft them piece by piece, because the emphasis of their interests is in the composition or final output rather than working out mesh topology for each one.

Also some people enjoy randomness. For those who are more commercially inclined it comes down to whether the client is willing to accept long turn around times and quality over speed.
Unfortunately this has adverse impacts on the industry. From a competitive lens it's obviously not a great situation for artists. From a purely creative lens, I can see why some people feel differently about it.

We're talking about creating gaussian splats from video - not generative AI. That's a separate debate and would belong in #offtopic anyway.

andybakOP•8/12/24, 9:39 AM

(but I'll just say that generative and procedural techniques have been part of art since the first cave painting used pigment blown through a straw - it's a difference in degree not in kind...)

Tieguaili•8/12/24, 10:24 AM

and luma AI is a generative AI company, that's what i was commenting on

andybakOP•8/12/24, 10:25 AM

only recently. before dream machine they were working on gaussian splats

andybakOP•8/12/24, 10:25 AM

(which is what we were talking about)

andybakOP•8/12/24, 10:27 AM

(which is AI - and to some degree "generative" but probably not what you mean by "generative AI")

Tieguaili•8/12/24, 10:30 AM

the nerf/splat thing is pretty useful though

AncientWorlds•8/14/24, 7:18 AM

I suspect its because I'm not a paid subscriber? I systematically cancelled everything over the last couple of months.
Almost everything is something I use once in a while, hard to justify keeping them all active.

That looks really cool. I often feel primitive in android world.
Those scan extractions look great though.
Might take you up on that, going to look at the mesh you sent when I fire up the headset

James Tunick•8/15/24, 8:32 AM

Cool feel free - also keep in mind that mesh is high poly - there is also medium & low poly options. You may have more luck with web upload & processing. Luma used to allow it though I haven't checked recently. Also if interested see below. @andybak no doubt you've seen these & think we discussed a while back but resurfacing with all the Icosa progress of late - as well as increasing public interest in nerfs/splats/3D scans:) https://github.com/aras-p/UnityGaussianSplatting https://github.com/antimatter15/splat

andybakOP•8/30/24, 7:39 AM

That's exactly what Icosa Gallery is for - we're a few weeks away from a release with that functionality (well - you can already manually upload and download .tilt files from your own account but I suspect you want to make them available for other people as well?)
