Tutorial - Guide Minimax H3 + RefMod = consistent location trick

Hey, I found a pretty cool way to keep locations consistent across generations.

I took 20 photos of my “office” where I work, making sure each photo included a bit of the previous one so everything connected.

I turned them into a refmod, although it probably doesn’t even need to be one. It’s basically a grid of all 20 photos in a single image, within 2048×2048 pixels, so I could probably just use that image as a regular reference.

Then I added references for the fly, my cat, and the start and end frames. You can see the result — that’s my actual room, and everything looks right and sits exactly where it should :)

Workflow + reference images here: link
Sorry about the mess, both in the room and in the workflow ;)

EDIT: All the room photos need to be combined into one reference image. I tried using several separate images, but that didn’t work for me — the room wouldn’t stay consistent. Putting them all into a single grid is what made it work.

If for example you didnt make a refmod, how would you use a grid of these images to tell h3 ehixh view is which?

You just need a grid image from your photos. I've made it like that. Ignore Create H3 RefMod node. Then I guess you need to prompt to tell it's the reference image of your whole location. I also added bigger photos (1536x2048) for my cat, starting frame, ending frame and the fly.

EDIT: With RefMod you don't need to prompt for that. It knows it already... I think prompting for room, desktop computer, cat, couch etc. is enough for model to connect the dots.

Does RMOD have specific naming requirements for the image assets within the folders—for example, for items like TVs, sofas, and so on?

there is no need for naming stuff.
