Advices for speeding up reconstruction?
Answered
Hello!
I would like to ask if somebody could share his practices for faster reconstruction.
I have learnt how to handle image alignment. I first start with downscale 4, then I align the "missed" one with less downscale.
However, reconstruction is still one "chapter" where really much time is spent.
Could anybody give me any hint on how to make reconstruction faster?
I haven't spent much time with it yet. I only know that there's "Normal" and "High".
Can I make "Normal" faster without losing too much detail?
Thanks for any advice.

What you can do:
Use Preview quality reconstruction but with changes to the settings:
Mesh calculations - Use sparse point cloud FALSE and Maximal vertices count 500,000 or 1,000,000That will give you a quite decent result within a rather short time.
It may actually be good enough for your needs. You'll have to try.I use it for turntable scans most of the time and it does save me a lot of time. The result will not have all the very fine details but the texture more than makes up for that.

Hello Alice,
in general, the total time of processing depends mainly on quantity and quality of data inputs, as well as their mutual overlap, and your hardware performance.
However, the reconstruction in normal detail is usually faster than in high detail, that is right. Keeping the cache also saves a lot of time.

Don't you always get this blocky preview?

It happens to me every time I reconstruct in Preview mode.
Even before I changed it to the settings you suggested.
