AI: NeRF to Unreal Engine
NeRF stands for Neural Radience Field, and is the latest in AI and Photogrammetry. It can make videos and effects from just a few photos of an area.
Companies are trying to get Neural Radience Fields to port to the Unreal Engine. This company is showing off what they can do, but have not released anything to be used.
There is also Volinga, which is what everyone recommends, but isn’t letting me into the stupid Beta.

I want to do this for a project that involves concept art made from Blender, Unreal, and AI imaging programs to create a 3D project I can export. It looks like I can sort of do it because InstaNerf allows for Export in OBJ.

I will need to use Google Collab to do it, because my computer just isn’t ready for it all.
Once its done though, I have a scene that I can say the exact real-world size and shape of any object I make. A cool project if a bit daunting.

What the fuck is Epic thinking...their entire selling point over Steam was the lack of shovelware.
Why did you get a negative for that point of view? You didn't even mention Formula 1.
I didn't downvote him, but the main selling point of Epic was free games. I won't say nobody cares about shovelware, but I've rarely heard that complaint. Epic, on the other hand, has many other negatives.
You can argue with him on the matter. I like epic for it's game engine.
I'm not interesting in arguing with him, or interacting with him much at all.
That's your prerogative.
I swear spell check wanted to spell that as perogies.
I could say the sky is blue and some stormfaggot will still give me -1.
I'd argue with you on it, but that just happened.
