I would love to see Gigapixel support for 2:1 ratio images that are 360° panoramas. Currently, it treats certain details at the polar extremes—such as dots in the ceiling and floor—as whirlpools, rather than recognizing them as part of the intentional distortion of the panorama. It may require a specialized model trained on the unique distortions of 360° panoramas, but could be built on the foundation of High Fidelity and CG models. Personally, I generate these panoramas from 3ds Max at a resolution of 4096x2048, though ideally, I’d prefer to upscale them to 6144 or 8192 pixels wide. Gigapixel is often my go-to for this, as it saves time versus rendering at those higher resolutions from the start.
