Text to 3D is AWESOME now! - AI Tools you need to know

[@mastermill79]

As an aspiring later in life 3D artist with 9 years of Blender tutorials and personal projects under his belt, it's nice to yet again see my ambitions be crushed like a bug.

[@LilithMorph]

... same here. Creativity is not longer a skill, it just cost credits

[@Desmond-Dark]

Creativity still matters at least for now. However, creatives should stay on top of the latest AI advances and use them to their fullest.

[@FreakazoidRobots]

I'm in the same boat. At the moment, most of what I'm seeing wouldn't be high enough quality to put in my portfolio even though I'm more at an indie level than AAA. However, it's getting there. My biggest fear is that I won't be able to use these tools myself, either because of regulations or cost. If it gets to the point where I can quickly and easily create my own AAA custom movies and video games by myself, that's not a world I necessarily hate, even if I can't get paid for those skills anymore.

[@P0intL3ader75]

It's not about AI taking over what you will do as a 3D artist. Learn how to make AI an asset in the type of work you will be doing. "It's not AI that takes over, it's humans that leverages AI who will"...

I have to check this out. As a solo dev whose weakness is creating 3D models in reasonable time (I'm decent at it, but just not very fast), this is a big help. Although I have to say what I've tried so far for 3D art has been disappointing. I'll try these when I have free time.

[@nathanielacton3768]

I'm a solo gamedev. I can code pretty well and do entry level hard surface modelling. So I'm really interested in not paying for all my models because I need consistent styling and I can't get that from marketplaces. But every few months I give these things a shot and find the results are like using raw photogrammetry. Holes, blobs, weird textures. I think that yeah I *could* fix them, but the fixing more or less needs the same skillset as building from scratch and the outcomes are not even close to perfect. I have also tried getting AI image to generate cool stuff. Feed that image in to a image>>3d modeler and boom... manure. One even gave me a 3d model of a plane with a messed up version of my picture and my picture was just a 3d render.

[@neopabo]

@@neopabo if you're going to learn retopo then you might as well learn how to model in the first place. In fact, you'll never be effective at retopo if you don't understand the fundamentals. So just learn to model.

[@OnigoroshiZero]

Looks decent, but not ready for prime time yet. Until they can generate high quality 3d models, with correct topology and weight painting (for objects that will be animated), making them ready for game engines with no additional work (which in some cases takes more than just making the model from the start), 3d generating models will not be good enough. edit: Hopefully 1 more year for this level of 3d generation.

I was waiting for a good AI tool that can create 3D models. This one seems decent. Hopefully, it will get even better.

[@rochestas]

If it's any consolation, audiences still generally prefer creations made by humans. KZbin scripts for example... I've generated a number of scripts for KZbin shorts with GPT-4 (via Bing), but the best ones, by FAR (and the ones that have gotten me the most views), are the ones that I've personally written. You can create great things with AI, but it's hard to gather an audience without that human connection / interaction.

AI stuff will never be local-install at the time of production, unless you have a mad rig at home, maybe 5-10 years down the line when the hardware has adapted. Simple Photogrammetry is there, so you can make real photos into a 3d point cloud and then into a mesh, it's a messy process but it works. However an image-to-3d procedural generation on a local hardware is far off.

It's funny to see how kids on Twitter who are drawing furries are afraid of the technology while every few years many softwares get more advanced to create better things.

[@pirobot668beta]

If generative AI could be persuaded into producing a series of images of an object, photogrammetry could then make a 3d mesh from the series of images. Exporting the mesh to STL would easy and/or peazy. I've played around with COLMAP..it tolerates a fair amount of input image 'noise' while producing decent meshes. Nothing worth publishing yet, still having fun learning ComfyUI and workflows.

[@sourabhkumarprasad9936]

is this an end of 3d and vfx ?

[@user-on6uf6om7s]

I've had better results with Meshy, especially in terms of texture quality. Aside from the somewhat blobby models, I hope they work on the baked lighting. The textures can look nice but all that baked lighting makes them not great for a variety of lighting conditions.

[@OlivioSarikas]

Good point. Any special prompt or negative prompt words you use to get better results?

[@user-on6uf6om7s]

For Meshy, I just use a handful of the standard quality tags (best quality, masterpiece, 4k etc.) and then I use the negative prompts they recommend in their prompting docs. Results are still highly dependent on how simple and commonplace the item is (Meshy seems really good with clothing) but the better textures with Meshy give you something you can use for manual touch ups with the clone tool. As for the baked lighting, you could try some of the lighting tags like flat or diffuse lighting. I'm still new to the tool myself so I don't want to seem like an expert. Now if only they could come with some better UVs.

[@Azzazel_]

Seeing the HORRIBLE quality of the 3D models generated by these AIs, one could feel at ease for at least a couple of years, but then you start reading the comments and you remember that people have no kind of artistic criteria. Many nobodies think they're graphic designers just because they have access to AIs that create for them, and you understand that you've wasted 12 years of your life fighting VERY hard to be a professional 3D character modeler, because a bunch of unscrupulous people have come up with the brilliant idea of prostituting 3D creation. Mind you, they haven't focused on making our lives easier by having an AI rig, UV map, or do retopology; no, they've focused on the creative and fun part. Why? Well, I'll leave the answer open for everyone to think about and debate the reason for this. As for me, after dedicating so much time to this profession, I feel lost because honestly, someone undermining your work in this way is not something I can label as pleasant.

[@robertruffo2134]

If you just need generic 3D models, instead of specific bespoke ones that truly support your artistic vision, then you can download models from an online library.

Can i tell you something? If we align the world that the ai generates ie how math reps physics through what it is, and how a neuron reps the difference while maintaining what it is, then we should be able to align not only the ai but the ai engines so that the engine is matching the real physics but in its difference so similar to the neuron and the math. If we can integrate the systems to match our current then we could get more accurate predictions. What i mean is the same thing as a scientist learning the differences of the world with his senses, and then the neurons rep the difference that was integrated while being themselves, so a superposition, and then the scientist reflects the neurons through the words and hands to reveal what the mind has revealed. Since the mind has the capacity to align with our current then all is able to be seen or revealed, not immediately like magic but over the difference like expansion through the details, its the sharing of energies that integrates and aligns to reveal the difference. I hope its understandable. What im saying is that we could bring out something far from what we see as real because its not that far, we just are at a different position so the point of view is not aligned. Similar to how humans share and integrate but also can not be aligned and the energies expand until integration of a sort or entanglement.
