you should check out the new AI stuff for images i dont get much time anymore with work but there is some stuff you should look into that blows materialize out of the water, look up ai image to 3d model
@@jrdevelopment2020 Ok when I open the directory some files as been seen as image (jpg) and some other has been as symbol of question mark (jpg).Hope you understand what I mean.
what are the file names of your pics? make sure they are supported file names (jpg, png,) also make sure you click the "o" for open under diffuse. can you elaborate a little more as in error messages, ? marks on photos.
@@jrdevelopment2020 All my pictures are jpg. and png. when I select a picture from picture folders it say's no picture to preview so the picture will not upload to Materialize.
@@georgemegginson8603 one person in the comments expirenced about the same thing before and it was a directory problem. (showed a question mark over picture) click the open button on your diffuse and select drives then navigate to your picture location see if this works let me know.
The quality does not look great, there must be a better way. Can you not dismantel the picture in R G B values and then puzzle those together or something to have a more smooth and pronounced look ?
One thing you can do is import the file into Blender (free open source software) or another sculpting software to make it more pronounced and use the smoothing tools. There is another method made by someone I follow. here is the Link. Hope this helps. ua-cam.com/video/dXabKAFmbQI/v-deo.html
Hi, my first cnc machine is on its way now, thank you for this video. Carveco appears to be a subscription service, is there a free version or alternative?
also if your new check out my newest video it will show you how to get 2 d images in carveco or vetric of just what your wanting unlike the other video were it is a box.
Photoshop use grey and white mask the areas you want to raise and adjust the opacity of the colors. Use Black as the background this will be transparent in carveco or vetric. watch my othr video removing background you will see what i mean. thanks for watching.
Hey man, great video! Thanks. I'm trying to figure out how to do something similar but with a photo of a lighthouse. I'm struggling to get the details of the roof line and windows. Any suggestions?
so when making the heightmap use the pick color then isolate the mask then work on adjustment of that color. I recommend checking out the tutorial of the sewer cap on the website materialize this will help you understand better than i can explain
Sorry took me so long to respond with work i dont get much time anymore. Hope you got it if not try this (When I run Materialize I can't open or paste images?

thats not creating a hieght map all its doing is creating a greyscale negative. the body is out front and the head is way back in the distance. it doesnt work that way. you could do the exact same in any 3d program by applying the negative of an image to the bump or displacement maps. Ive 3d modeled since 1991 if there were any easy way i would know it and this is not it. you would be better off posterizing it and v-carving
appreciate your comment in the picture the eagle had its head back. however, any image can be converted to a heightmap because a heightmap is nothing more than a pixel giving height information.(Black, White) in the case of any program you have to work a lot more to get the results were this program makes it quicker. in CNC machining its only taking a 2D image and giving it height information in the pixels. black is nothing white is everything and grey is the middle. we are not creating a 3d model from this we are taking a 2D image and a way to engrave a picture into wood. and I have used this technique to carve pictures of loved ones. and also, I may not have been doing 3D as long as you, but I still have enough to know what I am doing. I do appreciate your input though.

Great software tool for my CNC that I didn't know about. Thanks brother!

Hey thanks for putting this out there, I've been trying to figure out how to do this without it taking forever lol
No Problem if you need any more help just ask
I cant upload anything. I could see the folders but theres nothing load. What should i do?
Wow many thanks, I've been looking for a tool like that, for a while.
Your welcome I appreciate you watching you should check out the new one it makes a better way of doing images for 3d relief.
@@jrdevelopment2020 Sorry to bother you . Do you know why some images have a question mark

@@jrdevelopment2020 Thanks for your help, I finally got it to work I had to download Microsoft Visual C++
Great video Thank you.
Thanks for watching i hope to get back soon to make more videos.
You rock bro 🏆
I'm Glad Its Helping. Its a great Software Spend some time with it and it will be a very useful tool. I will Have more on it
Is there a step missing converting the materlize file to a STL file?
hey man, thanks!!! this will help me a lot!
Glad it Helps if ever have trouble there is some good tutorials on Materialize website or ask here
Yeah thanks for the heads up. Too Bad Materialize doesnt let you choose just parts of the picture.
yes it does let you in the height map where you pick color and isolate mask check out the videos on materialize there good videos to watch
Would like to see the finished result in carved wood.

Hi, my first cnc machine is on its way now, thank you for this video. Carveco appears to be a subscription service, is there a free version or alternative?
no sir but i had it for a day and bought maker for a year.the other alternative is vetric pro which i would like to have because you can do rotary
look at it like this carveco you get alot of 3D reliefs with it and vetric you can add a rotary and some reliefs
also if your new check out my newest video it will show you how to get 2 d images in carveco or vetric of just what your wanting unlike the other video were it is a box.
@@jrdevelopment2020 You write "Free software" when it is clearly a lie. Why? Clickbait???
@@Luka1180 materialize is free open source software. sorry you feel that way.
Game changer
is ther a way to pop the image out ? like for example the eagle out

Just curious if you were able to get that to work out
if not can you use the email on my channel and send me the picture see if i can help
how did you make the white to be in the front ... ?
Thank you
are you talking about when making the height map in materialize
if this is the case you adjust the final contrast down at the bottom of the sliders for the heigtmap
no picture comes up on my height map i can see the name but wont bring the picture in
