I have an educator account and am preparing to teach a game class next semster. I just learned that I can generate 3D models from photos using Substance 3D Sampler which would be great for my students. I downloaded Substance 3D Sampler but for some reason the actual procesture to convert images to a 3D Capture procedure is greyed out in the interface. Am I missing a step or did Adobe deactiveate this function from the software? It would be super useful it if worked.

Thanks

Hi Timothy,

We have decided to re-center Sampler around the creation of material digital twins, and removed the photogrametry option in Sampler 5.1

We did not feel like the quality of the output was good enough for what our customers could expect, and recentering around material digitization allows us to concentrate our effors on what brings the most value to our users
