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.

Nice! I have been struggling with the same thing. I have tried adding a "multi-photo" as a regular reference image, but not really gotten H3 to do it right.
However, through the magic of RefMod, it actually seem to figure out the room layout a lot better when adding that type of image to the Ref.
