set pan and tilt to match camera rotation

null@example.com (Tree2) — Wed, 18 Jan 2023 16:32:54 +0000

I mouse drag the panoramic, on Update I set main camera rotation equal to the panoramic camera rotation. Both cameras are now in sync and good.

1) Main camera,
2) panoramic camera

However when I first enable the panoramic and cam, how can I translate the main cameras rotation to the pan and tilt values to set the panoramic what angle it should begin?

App like street view

null@example.com (Tree) — Fri, 18 Nov 2022 03:46:25 +0000

I have thousands of images captured from a survey car like google street view, and a text file mapping the image file names to GPS coordinates.

Can uPano be used for this purpose?

In the unity app I already have GPS coordinates a long a map, I need to create a street view like app out of our own images and I stumbled upon upano

Matching StreetView heading / pan values

null@example.com (swilkinson) — Sat, 30 Jul 2022 01:36:55 +0000

Hi,

I'm trying to match the heading value of a 2D google streetview preview to pano pan values. I select a location on a map and then fetch the 2D preview using (as per a google sample):

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/streetview?size=400x400&location=47.5763831,-122.4211769&fov=80&heading=90&pitch=0&key=MYKEY

Headings using this API match expected orientations of the resulting 2D preview images. I then fetch the pano at that location with the pano plugin. I expected the pano to load looking "north" by default.

Since my 2D map is not rotated I know this preview is looking east and I can verify this in the 2D preview image with heading of 90. If I take that heading value and set the streetView.pano.pan from the same location, it's not oriented the same at all. Also, the "north pan" value is unclear to me. It seems to represent some declination or camera angle? I'm using very few features, no keyboard/mouse/rotation controls. Just setting a pano from the downloader and pushing in the pan value I would like. I am assumed the 0/0 north pan/pan is looking "north" along +x on the pano sphere? But this does not always work as I expect. (for example, north pan loaded as 246.34, but "north" is a relative pan of -127)

I'd appreciate any help trying to match heading to the pano pan value(s) !

Cheers,
Stephen

online maps + upano

null@example.com (gratax) — Mon, 09 May 2022 14:51:30 +0000

Hey there,
I have a question, and can't find any info about it anywhere on the forum or youtube.
I want to create something similar in VR as geoguessr website, where you start the game, you are teleported to random location(custom coordinates), that location is a panorama (like in google street view), you can turn around, move forward, backwards and etc.
For my understanding, both online maps and uPano is needed to create something like that, if not, please correct me.
I followed some tutorials on youtube - "Show Google Street View using Online Maps and uPano | Unity Asset", "uPano - Creating visual tours using Tour Maker | Unity Virtual Tour Asset | Unity Panorama". But there are few problems that occur.
1. In uPano extension manager, there is a google street view provider, but I can't download it, it requires invoice number. What invoice number? how to get it? where can I find it? (it is required for Online Maps - uPano connector script)
2. How to get Google Street View Static API? I went to google, selected g.street view static API, enabled it, went to credentials and got an API key, but I dont know if its for street view or no - https://prnt.sc/r-Y7KzyXPZlt

If I am missing something or there is a tutorial how to do that properly, just tell me, I couldn't find anything in the forum

WebGL

null@example.com (ferntp) — Fri, 18 Feb 2022 11:53:24 +0000

Hi Alex; I'm planning to get uPano for showing tours on the web - I saw the WebGL demo; can the tour be set for full screen?

I'm evaluating cloudPano then thought to look at your asset as I have OnlineMaps asset already.

Thanks

Texture vs Texture2D ?

null@example.com (philzmz) — Fri, 14 Jan 2022 16:12:50 +0000

Hello
I download the 6 textures of a cube from the web using wwwobject action in playmaker. So I get a TextureArray with the 6 sides.
But I can't set the CubeFacesPanorenderer with this array, as it seems that it needs a 2D Texture array.
Any idea or workaround ? Or maybe use regular textures, as the sphericalpanorendrer does ?
Best regards
Phil

Linking to specific Pano in new scene

null@example.com (smilinmike) — Thu, 16 Dec 2021 19:56:56 +0000

I'm currently working on a project that has a great number of panos to include. My idea on how to organize the project would be to break them down into "areas" where each area has its own scene in Unity containing multiple panos. Sometimes these "areas" intersect and I would like to to be able to load a new scene, but with a specific pano displayed. ie Scene #1 Pano #2 might link to Scene #2, Pano #10. Is there a way to do this currently? if not what would be the best route to try and implement it?

Thanks for your support!

VR support?

null@example.com (emadukhhhan) — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 13:56:39 +0000

I know google cardboards are supported, but can I run/export this on Vive and Oculus ?

Trying to get this on ViveFocus 3 as well.

"Destroying assets is not permitted to avoid data loss" ???

null@example.com (philzmz) — Fri, 24 Sep 2021 20:40:26 +0000

Hello,

I get a strange error in play mode and unity pauses.
In the build mode, no message, but the material turns to black.
I read an answer relative to this error message in the forum, but concerning OLMaps.
This is very strange, as I already used this PM Action dozens of times with no issue.

When Unity enters pause mode, I get this message in the console:

If you really want to remove an asset use DestroyImmediate (theObject, true);

- The project is for VR with XR (Oculus Quest2)

Any help mostly welcome as I spent several hours trying to solve this problem with no result.
Thanks, Philippe

8K video lagging

null@example.com (Min) — Mon, 07 Jun 2021 22:57:20 +0000

Hi! I'm so glad to be here again to ask about your asset.
The problem is all about the video player. I put a 8K video(7680*3840 and about 180MB) and, it works but it has sort of lagging.
I already searched about this problem and someone let me know this page(https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/hardware-accelerated-video-decode-in-unity.html).
But I think your asset may apply different way of render, So please tell me the best way to play 8K video without any lagging.
Thank you so much!

Cubemap in Tour Maker window

null@example.com (Min) — Sat, 15 May 2021 04:16:46 +0000

First of all, I really appreciate your amazing asset that is very useful to me.
But I have one question. In 'Tour Maker' window on 11 tour scene,
I can't see cube map node which is added as item.
It feels like a transparent object but, it exist and is working if I allow it 'set start panorama'.
So can you let me know how to see the cube map node in Tour Maker window?
Thank you so much.

Is it working with NGUI ?

null@example.com (murphyii) — Tue, 23 Mar 2021 14:23:24 +0000

Our project is still using NGUI as its main ui, so is there any chance to make it works ? Or does it require canvas, ...
Also, is it possible to create and link several hotspots based on GPS coords (we are using onlinemaps) and bind textures for their panorama : and doing everything at runtime (I mean ouside editor) ?
Thank you in advance
