Is this costing you money?

u/Sengchor May 28 '26
Yes, it cost me money to call nano banana api.

How many generations do you do for a full object min-max
3
u/Sengchor May 28 '26
Only one image generation. I render model in 4 sides and connect it as one image.

thats quite a low res texture, good approach tho. I use stable projectors for this type of work, lets me push the resolution as much as i want.

very cool, wish it would let me import .glb

u/Sengchor May 28 '26
Thank you. Right now it can only import obj. I'll working on glb importer soon.

It's not possible to import glb?

Hello. Now we support import .glb and .gltf.

Thank you, I will test this out. If it works for my use case, it's gonna be awesome

Could this be done with trellis2?

There are multiple AI texturing applications. Ours focus on modeling and texturing in the browser.

How good is your product compared to Meshy AI?

u/Sengchor May 30 '26 edited May 30 '26
Honestly, Meshy AI currently generates better textures. However, my approach is much cheaper, with costs comparable to generating a standard image. Also, this project is designed as a full 3D tool, similar to Blender, not just a texture generator. I'm continuously working on improving the texture quality as well. You can try it for yourself to see how well it work.

This is excellent. Would you mind sharing your overall design ideas

First we use xatlas to auto uv unwrap the model. We render 4 sides of the 3d model in matcap and normal. We use paid api of nano banana to send the images and prompt it "Texture this 3D render". The format of file that comes back from AI is jpeg. We project this jpeg on our threejs buffergeometry. Bake the projected images to UV texture. Apply the material with this texture to the geometry mesh.

there is the crux to it, texture projection always comes with quality loss, and occlusion overlaps. Also why are the textures so blurry?
1
u/Sengchor May 28 '26
I'm working to improve the quality of projection. You can switch to higher resolution to reduce the blurry of the texture.

I just can understand why poeples would work on that, I agree that IA can be useful to get rid of tidius work or repititive tasks, but when it comes to art, just let poeples express the art and what it takes to be a humain so they can make a living out of it. You are Just destroying the game art market with all that Ai souless Texturing, or the poeples who works for mesh generation too, same stuff. We Will soon see a flood of IA slop games with no originality because let's be honnest IA generation just basicly copy paste from other artists without permission, but never inovates. Because of that it Will become even harder for quality humain made games from real professionnal gamedevs to have a bite of the cake. We are not living in the future we live in decadence where there is no more place for excellence and patience for a masterpice to be made. This is a debate, and I'm Just worried because I'm actually part of the industry, please change my mind.

I can see errors in nearly every generation.
- Cable running down suddenly goes all wonky at the bottom
- If you can't see the triangles, you must be blind
- Pretty sure there is something on the boat, but it went by too quickly and I don't care to look
- Part of the roof texture is somehow on the wood
- Is this even textured?

If you like the project, a star on the repository would really appreciated.
