There are some companies working on making alternatives to Googles Tour Creator. The procedure of producing a VR trip in Expeditions Pro is very similar to that of Tour Creator. Expeditions Pro supports the use of zip files that are developed when you use Google Takeout to download your Tour Creator files. I d advise doing that prior to Google shutters Tour Creator at the end of the month.

Unfortunately, at the end of June Google is closing the doors on
Trip Creator. Im bummed about it because it is one of my preferred production tools. Luckily, there are some business working on making alternatives to Googles Tour Creator. Among those business is
Explorations Pro..

Im hoping that Expeditions Pro is offered to the public in time for the next academic year since Im delighted to see what students and instructors will make with it.

Expeditions Pro is still in beta but I got to attempt it out previously today. My initial impression of it is that it will be an excellent replacement for Tour Creator as soon as all of the quirks are exercised..
When I initially signed into my beta Expeditions Pro account I was struck by the resemblance to Tour Creators interface. The procedure of producing a VR tour in Expeditions Pro is extremely comparable to that of Tour Creator. You simply pick a cover image, title your tour, then begin to include scenes. Including scenes is just like adding slides to a slideshow other than that rather of adding standard images you upload 180 or 360 degree scenic images..
Expeditions Pro supports the use of zip files that are produced when you use Google Takeout to download your Tour Creator files. In truth, I d suggest doing that prior to Google shutters Tour Creator at the end of the month. (Heres a video about how to use Google Takeout)..
Applications for Education.
Once Expeditions Pro leaves beta and appears to the general public, I believe that it will be a fantastic alternative to Googles Tour Creator. Students will be able to utilize it to develop their virtual reality trips about regional history, about books, about location, about geology, and numerous other fascinating topics.
