The Cityscape Tutorial has been published! This one is quite a bit more involved, but the results are so satisfying! I hope you enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/IiQwUcPOVfs/v-deo.htmlsi=80CCWzsVY9aitQlJ
Pro tip, you get better quality and a larger map by tipping it upright at a 60 deg angle. The Z axis of a printer has the lowest resolution because of the discrete layer height. Tipping it will take longer but the higher terrain resolution is worth it.
Dude this video ROCKS -- we want to make chocolate bars with the terrain of the places where the chocolate was grown -- and you just taught us how! thank you!!
Never heard of touchterrain, exactly what I was looking for a while back. For anybody who uses Blender, I was able to use it with the (native) 3D printing extension to fix the non-manifold geometry, sliced fine after that. Useful video, thanks
@@BradRemillard No problem at all, and I am happy to hear you appreciate the efforts! I am glad to share the little bits I have learned with the community!
@3dprintyboy Love the KML option to create non-rectangular exports. Was not aware of that possibility. Do you think its possible to use the KML outline option together with the OSM / Blender way of doing things you described in your 'How to 3D Print Cityscapes ' to create a non-rectangular-shaped piece of cityscape? That way one could create a 'city-quarter-shaped' cityscape. Also from what I understand, the built-in repair option is now also available in the newest versions also on mac, as bambulab uses an external service for it. Don't know how performant it is though. Regarding the scaling: You can do that within the slicer as well, scaling just the z-coordinate of your STL export file. No shenanigans in the export settings needed.
@3dprintboy the videos are incredible! Thank you very much for sharing. Here's a question: I think you could create something, adding the route in GPX and thus creating something multicolored, e.g.: printing the topology in one color and the route in another? Do you have any tutorials about it?
Nice work! I'm thinking about handpainting my project, rather than doing the AMS approach for color. We'll see lol. As someone else suggested here, I would love to see you publish the Fusion file for the frame! :)
Great stuff! Currently creating part of the Swiss alps for my grandparents. And would love a city map tutorial as I'm living in the Netherlands without a lot of mountains! Love the stuff!
Glad you enjoyed it! I bet that will look great and am sure your grandparents will love it! Working on the cityscape tutorial now! Hoping to get it out today or tomorrow!
@@petera1117 Sorry for the delay! The city map is a little more involved so the video is taking a bit longer to produce! I will have it out asap! Stay tuned!
gave advice on how to 3D print rivers and rapids to put on front deck of kayak?

Error: All(!) elevation values are -32768.0! This may happen if the DEM source does not cover the selected area. For the web app, ensure that your red selection box is at least partially covered by the grey hillshade overlay or try using AW3D30 as DEM source. How can I fix this?
You'll want to expand or unpack the zip file, and then import only the .stl file into Bambu Studio! Just double click the zip on mac, or for Windows, I think you just right click>expand
After all this time, you would think Autodesk Civil3d would write out a surface to stl, with given bottom elevation. Same for ESRI software. Nope. So the people best at making surfaces are hog tied. Then you get this kind of workflow. The problem is you have no control over low res data, and also old data. I wrote my own TIN to stl exporter which can read many formats like landxml, whatever. It solves the problem, it works. The trick is detecting the edge tris so you make skirt tris that connect the flat bottom to elevated tris. I think other cad programmers have done it too.
Very fascinating! I haven't dove nearly that deep! Only deep enough to come up with this relatively hacky, but relatively decently working, approach! Will have to dive even deeper when I get a chance. Thanks for sharing!
I have run into this periodically as well. In this case, the search function will not work properly, but landing around the map interface and everything else should work 100% as expected!

Great video, id really like a video on how to make a city map, thanks
@@MrRazer1978 Thank you, glad you liked it! I will be working on that next 🫡
I tried figuring out how to make STLs of cities using Google maps and couldn't work it out so if you make a video like that I'd be so grateful. Subbed
@@Jumbo_Jym Coming right up! 👌 Thanks for subscribing!
The cityscape tutorial is live! 😎 ua-cam.com/video/IiQwUcPOVfs/v-deo.htmlsi=80CCWzsVY9aitQlJ
City scapes are a lot more tricky. For some reason the methods used don't have the data for buildings in shopping areas or smaller cities
This is why i 3d print. Learning new things. Thanks not only for video but also for posting on makers world. 😊

Awesome video I’ve been wanting to do this for a while and would really love to see a how to on city maps. Thank you for sharing your work
Glad it was helpful! City map video coming tomorrow 🫡
Thanks for this! This will be perfect for some gifts! Any chance you could share the parametric file for the frame?
I liked how simple this is

This is crazy....very cool

Excellent video! Would love to see your cityscapes tutorial too. Keep up the great work.

Would love to see how you made the parametric frame
Thank you - this was very informative, direct to the point, and will certainly be on my to-do list!

Tick tock. Where is the city map. lol. Buying an A1 today. So hoping the city map tutorial comes out soon. Thank you for the work.

Custom city scapes would be great.
It’s great to see so much interest!
I've always wanted a 3d print of Haleakala National Park because it looked like it would be fun to roll a marble down the sliding sands side.

How can I fix this?
so how do we get forest on the scapes without drawing them by hand ? since they also resemble some layerheights high objects next to mountains right ?
what is the point of vertical exxadution, so you can see everything easier? so if i wanted a more realistic one i should set it to 1?
I think that beginning site doesn't have a google map license anymore, when I go there, the map says, do you own this site?
Now this is cool.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Can I please get a link to the parametric frame? Thanks
Would this work for places like lakes and its surrounding areas? I would like to make one of Pueblo Reservoir in Pueblo, CO
The cityscape method will be best for that! Working on a video for that now!
I can't seem to import the zip files to bambu studios, any trouble shooting would be great, thank you

I’m here to learn how to make dungeons and dragons maps thank you
hah, I was specifically hoping to see city scapes here. :-D
Coming up very soon! Monday at the latest!🤝
I'm using a Mac, so I'll use another option 😂🤣😂🤣 PCFTW!!
Map only shows USA
@@jamesneely766 As I mentioned in the first step, you need to select a different data source on the top right to choose an international data source 🙂
City please
Awesome to see so much interest! Stay tuned!
