    Affinity Photo

    Layer - Live Projection - Equirectangular Projection.

    Rotate the image down with the mouse the same you would do if it was a regular 360 image and then use the Inpainting Brush Tool.

    Then it's Layer - Live Projection - Remove Projection to return the image back to normal and save the image.

    If the tripod is stood on top of some complex floor tiles then the Inpainting Tool may not get it exact so you would then manually copy a nearby section of the tiles and use that to cover the tripod area. You can arrange the copy using the Mesh Warp or Perspective Tool to get it aligned correctly and then delete parts that are not required so that it blends in.

    There is of course other software to use but I find Affinity Photo affordable.

    Hi Tuur,

    Sorry to hear your down in the dumps. I'm quite sure a lot of people appreciate your examples and time put into creating them. I certainly do. My only conclusion is that for most (and I may be wrong), KRPano is more of a hobby than a source of income these days and that changes the direction of development. I personally love everything related to 360's and tours but unfortunately it's nothing new anymore to entice clients and so it's hard to justify spending hours creating tours or convincing them that they need 3d functionality.

    I've been following KRPano for years and for most followers, in it's current state, I'm guessing it's simply too hard to get their head around.

    Sure there is the handful of developers here that can code and sell addons to the rest of us but I don't think there are many others that could, or have the time to get involved in testing and sharing new ideas. I'm by no means a coder and would struggle to even mention if I thought something was incorrect with your addons as I wouldn't know where to start.

    It's unfortunate that you are now in this pissed off position but please know that there still are people out there that follow your work and new ideas with interest.

    Kind regards,

    Andrew

    Thanks for the update and appreciate your hard work.

    I do feel though that it is aimed more at the other developers of addons to sell on the KRPano site as there's still a really steep learning curve for newcomers or non coders. I was really hoping at this stage there would be an extensive gui, but to make use of all the functions it still appears to be creating /adjusting xml in a code editor or JS api.

    Thanks anyway though and perhaps one day it will be easy to use for regular photographers and hobbyists.

    Thanks for the information Klaus. Appreciate it.

    I have the RTX 2060 with driver version 536.23, so downloaded the latest which is GeForce RTX 2060 | Windows 10 64-bit > NVIDIA Studio Driver – V 560.81

    After the update, krpano Tools.exe was a no show but like before nwjs listed in the task manager. I don’t know anything about nwjs so looked it up. In the task manager, the properties of nwjs shows

    File version 0.50.00
    Product version - 0.50.0-Beta1

    On their website, the latest version is nwjs-v0.91.0-win-x64 so seems quite a leap.


    I saw this on the KRPano forum dated February 9, 2023,

    Code
    "For anyone having the Windows issue - there is a new release (build 2023-02-09) available that should fix it."

    I then noticed that Suso Barral got it up and running after downloading the update. Is that fixed version available as the link now goes only to krpano 1.21.2

    I'd have to go back to using krpano-1.20.11-win32 as that's the only version that works for me *unsure*


    **************************** Update *********************

    It doesn't matter, I've got it working on the laptop so all good as can transfer all compiled files to the PC *thumbsup*

    Hi,

    I’ve managed to destroy the folder on my pc that contains all things Krpano so I need to download and set up again.

    I’ve just got krpano 1.21.2 (build 2023-12-11), unzipped and can’t seem to open krpano Tools.exe even though nwjs is listed under Windows processes.

    • Using Windows 10 Pro 22H2
    • I’ve tried re-downloading the zip
    • Run as Administrator
    • Tried drinking 4 shots of gin but no change
    • I’m using Bitdefender but have tried krpano Tools.exe when it’s both on and off
    • I seem to remember the same issue a while ago but the solution was to download the 32bit version . I can’t see that one on the downloads page but would really like to use 64bit anyway.


    MAKE VTOUR Droplet.exe doesn’t work when dragging and dropping my image into it. Again, MAKE VTOUR Droplet.exe (32 bit) is listed under Windows processes. Had another shot of gin and now just feel tired *sleeping*

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    Ok. Just thought I'd mention it *wink* I just tried those original links with a vpn on the go and can view them so perhaps it's just an Australian thing and my annoying internet provider sticking their nose in.

    The new 3dview.sk link you posted above works fine though without a vpn

    For some reason, I used to get many of these black tiles several years ago when uploading via FileZilla, plus it took ages to upload all the individual tiles so I normally zip the entire tour folder and then upload the zip file. You can then extract it on the server via the hosting control panel and the contents come out with no corruption. Uploading just one file is way easier. Hope that helps.
