3D extrusion algorithm in Photoshop CS5 Extended

Hi,
I am a researcher at NTU Singapore and was using 3D features of Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended. To be specific the 3D on a plane feature from a single image. I wanted to know what algorithm is being used here? Is it shape from shading? I want to know because I want to improve it and use it in my research as the 3D generated by is quite "noisy".
Thanks in advance for any help
Regards
Shaz

You will get much closer to an to your question if you ask it on the Photoshop forum.  This forum is dedicated to Acrobat 3D features only.  Also, the answer to your question may require internal knowledge of Photoshop 3D engineering, and, since these forums are not necessarily monitored by Adobe employees, may be difficult to come by.

  • Program error when try to use 3D repousse in Photoshop CS5 extended?

    Please help!!!! Unable to use 3D repousse Photoshop CS5 Extended  (my system info is described below)
    I tried almost everything that is available in Adobe library help, also re-installed programs as requested by Adobe support (suspected to get rid of me), it did not solve the problem.
    I used to have 3D capabilities, and also crop tool worked well before (now it changes all layers when using crop even in background).  My PC is same,  nor I downloaded plugins or changed video cards (these things are too advanced for me!), also restored preferences many times.
    My system makes automatic updates, reviewed graphics and adobe as recommended.
    OpenGL settings is odd …only can access basic, other modes are not highlighted (normal or advanced).
    ERRORS (for 3D Text)    
    1-“Your 3D scene now exceeds the limits of lights and/or textures for the video card’s hardware-accelerated 3D rendering. As long as the limits are exceeded, 3D rendering will be done in software only, and some features (e.g Repousse)will be disabled.”
    2- “Your video card does not meet the requirements for hardware-accelerated 3D rendering. All 3D will be rendered with software only “
    3-“ Could no complete the text layer command because of a program error”
    ERROR (for object)
    Open GL/GPU HARDWARE ACCELERATION IS CURRENTLY  DISABLED. 3D WILL NOW BE RENDERED WITH SOFTWARE ONLY.  TO ENABLE OPEN/GL  ACCELERATION, GO TO PREFERENCES > PERFORMANCE TAB AND CHECK THE “ENABLE OPENGL GRAWING” CHECK BOX.
    Is it possible that I have a GPU Sniffer? all these terms I have learned recently =)   but I have a healthy & capable graphic card and accepted by adobe standards.

    thank you for replying...but it seems an easy answer again  like one given by support....I had photoshop working perfectly before with same video card, I think in one project I clicked something in program (photoshop)that was not ready to correct it by itself... It should be available for the program to give warning several times to the user, I do not know what made Photoshop to disable OpenGL settings, and not be able to reverse action!!!!!  How do I change a GPU sniffer?  I an not a tech, all these things I just learned reading....had spent hundreds of hours....really dissapointed of Adobe and  its support....it is not fair to sell an expensive program without support, it seems to me that  I know now more than a live customer support.

  • Hi please can you help me. I have photoshop CS5 extended, I bought a new camera Nikon D610 I want to edit my photos adobe camera raw , but when I try to open photoshop CS5 it will not open. Please can you tell me how to download and install the camera raw

    HI bought a new camera Nikon D610 , I am using adobe photoshop CS5 extended, I want to edit my photos in camera raw but it is not possible to do so . I need to download camera raw plugin for CS5 can some tell me how to do so or if there is a link for the camera plugin.
    Many thanks Pitt.

    For that Nikon model you need ACR 8.3 that means CS6 or CC.  Or you can download the DNG converter convert your Nikon RAW files to Adobe RAW files. And then process the Adobe RAW files with CS5 ACR version  6.7

  • No 3D Tools in Photoshop CS5 Extended!

    I upgraded from Photoshop CS5 standard to  CS5 Extended but can't see the 3D tools in the menu - just shows the standard menu... I re-downloaded and re-installed, but still no 3D. What am I doing wrong?

    How did you upgrade to Photoshop CS5 extended?  I didn't think Adobe was selling upgrades to Photoshop CS5 any longer.
    In any case, activation is where the differentiation is made, based on the content of the serial number - both use the exact same install.  Deactivate and reactivate with your new serial number and the features should show up.  You really didn't need to reinstall.

  • Photoshop CS5 Extended crashing on Windows Vista.

    I've just installed Photoshop on my system. My video drivers and everything are up to date. Video card is NVidia GeForce 7050/ nForce 620i and it shows as compatible on the Photoshop tested cards list.
    Photoshop CS5 Extended opens fine and dandy. But whenever I try to do anything it crashes. Tried scanning a document via the Photoshop import, scan starts, goes to open the scanned object, crashes. Tried opening a new document. Set my document preferences, click ok, Photoshop crashes... Try to open an existing image, the image starts to open, Photoshop crashes... I think you get the picture.. but I don't LOL.....

    I'm at a loss..... Does anyone have a flashlight to help me find my way out of this deep dark cave? LOL
    Thanks in advance.

    Latest is not always greatest with video drivers, ESPECIALLY from nVidia.
    1.  They apparently don't put too much effort into supporting older hardware.
    2.  The MUCH larger video game market has them all scrambling to improve their latest and greatest offerings to improve the frame rate in Crysis or whatever, and they don't seem all that interested in Photoshop users.

  • Image not displaying correctly Photoshop CS5 Extended V 12.1. (Same file OK in PS Elements)

    I am having a problem with Photoshop CS5 Extended V 12.1.
    The problem:
    When I open some files, some shades of BLUE colour is displayed as BLACK
    However the same file  opens and displays correctly if I open it using Photoshop Elements V9.0.3.
    When I save the file as JPEG and re-open it, the problem returns.
    Opening the JPEG file in any other application, including PS Elements, does not cause the problem
    Source of files
    The original files came from a Nikon camera, saved in RAW format. It is possible that the original files were corrupted in some way as the shots had an unusual blue cast - which was easily resolved by Photoshop when I originally opened the RAW files. However, I'm not sure.
    The problem is not universal as I've not been able to reproduce it with any other files (RAW or JPEG).
    I have calibrated my monitor display settings sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (default)
    Other information:
    Adobe Photoshop Version: 12.1
    Operating System: Windows 7 64-bitVersion: 6.1 Service Pack 1
    System architecture: Intel CPU
    Family:6,
    Model:10,
    Stepping:9 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2
    Physical processor count: 8
    Processor speed: 3395 MHz
    Built-in memory: 8153 MB
    Free memory: 5089 MB
    Memory available to Photoshop: 7147 MB
    Memory used by Photoshop: 60 %
    Image tile size: 128K

    Thank you for yur reply, Curt. Yes, I do have the original RAW file. When I open it in PSE and PS, the colours appear correctly AT FIRST as shown here:
    However, when I select "Open Image", it appears as here:
    You will see that the blues in the lady's scarf and the wolly hat of a man in the forground are appearing as black. However, when the file is saved as JPEG or PNG and printed or viewed using PSE or Pait, or any other medium (even Premiere Elements), the colurs arer fine.
    However, the same process when followed in PSE, does not result in the same outcome. The image displays correctly.

  • I'm using Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended and am having trouble with it.

    I just reinstalled Photoshop CS5 Extended from my original disk because I was having trouble with it. I did do an uninstall before installing. Every time I quit Photoshop I get this message: "Could not save Preferences because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary access privileges. Use the ‘Get Info’ command in the Finder to unlock the file or change permissions on the file or enclosing folders." Can you tell me what to do to fix this? I went to get info and made changes to read and write, but it made no difference. Thanks for your help.
    Richard

    Some folders are hidden in the Finder. Use the "Go to Folder" command for that.
    Go menu > Go to Folder, enter:

  • Setting a Custom Scale and Measuring in Photoshop CS5 Extended | No Stupid Questions with Colin Smith | Adobe TV

    The measurement tool in Photoshop CS5 Extended can accurately measure distance, area and angels in your image but did you know that you can customize the scale that you measure? Colin will show you have to use these tools and accurately measure the height of our stand-in criminal Karl Miller.

  • Re-installing Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac)?

    How can I download and re-install Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac) for which I have a licence?  I lost the previous version in a disk crash.  I tried downloading the full Photoshop CS5 installer, but I was told I couldn't run the installer because I didn't have permission. 
    Thanks,

    Here is the link for the  CS5 installers: Download CS5 products
    Be sure to right click and run the installer as an administrator if you have trouble. If it still fails, download the installer again.

  • Cannot install photoshop cs5 extended on 10.7.3

    I am having an issue trying to install photoshop cs5 extended trial on my macbook pro. I was able to download the file from Adobe's website, but when I go to click to install and it asks me for my apple password, as soon as I enter it, the install freezes at 0%. I have tried it numerous times, all with the same result. I have to force quit the application. I am running 10.7.3 with no prior issues up to this point. Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Download and install this:

    It installs Java which CS5 needs.

    In this episode of CSInsider, Rufus Deuchler, Worldwide Design Evangelist at Adobe, introduces you to how easily you can extrude text in Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended to create fully fledged 3D objects. These 3D objects can then be rendered using Photoshop's own Raytracing engine, including cast shadows. This feature lets you add a 3D flair to your 2D images.
