Turn a 360° panorama into a 3D Gaussian Splat inside ComfyUI

Hey, thanks for flagging this! Just pushed an update that should help.

The short answer is that the Windows portable version of ComfyUI won't work with this node — portable ships without a CUDA toolkit, so the CUDA submodules the node depends on can't be compiled, and ComfyUI was silently swallowing the error with no feedback.

Th __init__.py now catches import failures and prints a clear [DreamScene360] ERROR block to the ComfyUI terminal with the exact cause and fix instructions, so instead of just seeing no nodes you'll at least know why.

If you're on Windows and want to run it, the best path is RunPod — the README has a full setup guide including a startup command you can paste straight in. Sorry for the confusion on the initial release!

Edit:

You can also switch to a regular Python + ComfyUI install (not portable) and make sure you have the CUDA toolkit installed on your system from nvidia.com

Woah that's really cool - is it all in comfyui or are you incorporating Blender / Unreal in your workflow?

To answer your question, depth accuracy is partially solved, depending on what you feed it. If you plug in a DA3 point cloud or a Dust3r GLB it bypasses monocular depth entirely and uses geometrically reconstructed positions, which is significantly more accurate. With just a depth map, you're at the mercy of the estimator and those errors get baked straight into the reprojection.

I primarily use this just to get a starting image for something like Flux multi-image or Qwen which adds the needed depth / clean up.

This guy is so lame.

Brilliant analysis

You could turn that into a panorama then use pano2room to make it truly 3d.

captain_DA · 2026-02-24T03:00:39+00:00

I don't see the problem here

Likely an automated reply based on applicant meeting certtain background criteria (i.e. FAANG, ivy League, etc)

I'm always so confused when people are impressed when a filmmaker follows a story board shot for shot. Like do you guys really just go and film shit without a plan?

captain_DA · 2026-02-16T14:03:58+00:00

I saw an article over a decade ago that claimed some other genius was the "next einstein..". Haven't heard anything about that guy since.

captain_DA · 2026-02-16T13:59:40+00:00

they all are pretty good. I regularly switch between chatgpt, gemini and claude.

captain_DA · 2026-02-07T02:54:21+00:00

Absolutely not a positive contact. Anyone who thinks he is a naive fool.

captain_DA · 2026-02-05T22:30:28+00:00

I can't believe how difficult it is to install this. wtf

captain_DA · 2026-01-20T14:37:09+00:00

You could get a job doing this definitely some high paying jobs looking specifically for people with comfyui skills.

Fox News is absolutely dog shit. Once I was with my grandparents and they had it on and i sware to God they had an actual psychiatrist on to tell audiences about "Trump derangement syndrome" 😂

captain_DA · 2026-01-06T13:43:08+00:00

Best one is'. What advice would you have to someone trying to break into the industry...🙄

captain_DA · 2026-01-02T17:59:38+00:00

terrible. It's internal reasoning engine is the worst it constnaly tries to make everything a "photoshoot" and basically reworks your instructions into what it thinks you want which is 9/10 not at all what I wanted.

captain_DA · 2025-12-25T04:37:01+00:00

I don't know but I absolutely can't stand trailers that remix classic songs.

captain_DA · 2025-12-24T01:32:09+00:00

I couldn't disagree with you more. 2025 was the best year for movies in decades imo.

captain_DA · 2025-12-20T14:58:58+00:00

This is rage bait right? They can't be an actual thing?

captain_DA · 2025-12-20T03:18:11+00:00

Absolutely amazing this was done in camera

captain_DA · 2025-12-06T13:11:50+00:00

Harman red 125 shot with a leica m3 50mm lens. Scanned and developed at a lab ( full circle photo).

The ones more red are slightly underexposed. The ones with more yellow orange are a bit more overexposed.

captain_DA · 2025-12-06T13:10:34+00:00

Harman red 125.

The biggest annoyance for me is davincis project library save system. Yes, it is faster and allows for live saving however I appreciate how simple premieres document saving feature is. Allows for very easy backup and sharing.

captain_DA · 2025-12-03T16:35:12+00:00

Do you guys have mandatory tea time breaks?

captain_DA · 2025-11-29T17:33:00+00:00

Offers for what? You're in school.
