Meshroom: Stuck at meshing

Hey Guys

This is my log entry:

I think my problem has something to do with the repartition and partitioning. So I changed those in the attributes section and the program still did not proceed to MeshFiltering.

First time for me today Stuck on Meshing Never had a problem b4 the model is a bit more complex wiht 214 images

[DevoStevo66]

I've also got stuck on Meshing node for this model. Accepted all images and the SFM in 3D view looks fine but won't finish meshing. I've had success with several other Meshroom models, just not sure why it hangs up on this one. I did notice at the end of the log the "Overall maximum dimension:" is "1368 x 1368" whereas my image size is 2736 x 2736. Not sure if this has any relevance but did seem strange when mine are larger in size. Also, Meshroom has worked fine before using the same image size, camera and settings (unless I accidentally changed the default setting at some stage in Meshroom settings and saved without realizing it).

Here's my log file.

[fabiencastan]

Could you try to reduce the value of maxPoints on the Meshing node to avoid using too much RAM & SWAP?

[pwab]

Hey @fabiencastan thanks for suggesting the maxPoints as the bottleneck. It worked as expected for my model!
Maybe a warning or infobox could be added if the maxPoints are set too high in relation to the RAM & SWAP of the used system?

[shrobon]

@fabiencastan :
Could you please assist as to how I can change maxPoints on the Meshing node using command line ?

[fabiencastan]

When you ask for command line, I suppose that you refer to https://github.com/alicevision/meshroom/blob/develop/bin/meshroom_photogrammetry.
The maxPoints parameter is not exposed, but you can easily add it. Look at the --scale parameter to see how to add a new one.

[fundamental4]

With the same pictures (61), I have a "Meshing" crash first, and secondly at "Depth Map Filter".
I see your recommendations about reducing maxPoints, but:

• it is 5000000 now, how much do you recommend to be reduced?
• what is maxPoints for? will the resolution be reduced?

[fabiencastan]

@fundamental4 yes, 5M sounds good but it depends on how much RAM is available on your computer.
maxPoint is the maximum number of points used to do the tetrahedralization.
Yes, reducing maxPoints will reduce the final number of vertices by fusing more points together. So yes, you can consider that as a lower resolution. Lower resolution in output also mean better robustness.

[daboy1]

Thank you for your work guy. This issue seems to be solved for the majority of the people. It seems that I have the same problem but Im unable to implement the necessary changes to the program. Could you give an absolute novice any hints on how to reduce the maxpoints? Any help greatly appreciated.
