Vibe Coding 3D Garment Software with ThreeJS : A Small Step For Me So, after modeling the human i did what any reasonable vibe coder would do, i asked codex how to get clothes for my models After it was done running subliminal ad campaigns for Marvelous Designer and... CLO 3D, i asked it to explain their architecture to me and adapt it to my threejs app. Guess what it did? You damn right, it built the most basic shit interpretation you can think of. And this is the average interaction the Anti-AI coders have until they conclude that AI is slop and/or it can only work if you micro manage it on every line of code. Well, eons of humanities knowledge are now packaged in tiny silicon and transferred across the globe in realtime, available on tap. So anyways i just iterated quite a lot over it, told it repeatedly why it was bad (the initial one used rapier physics and a naive cloth simulation) We found out together that: 1. A ground truth document model is needed 2. The visual mesh in 3D should be triangulated from the 2D shape 3. The physical object is running independently through different solvers: - A fast proxy which is generated by reading all the bones in runtime and just inflating these areas with spheres and capsules - A medium quality proxy which resamples the human model and creates a lower-poly mesh for simulations - Full mesh simulation (can't run it, every simulation tick takes about 5 minutes on my machine) It ended the session by telling me that this is still crap because it runs everything on CPU (thanks, not that i care, but i guess we'll be fixing that?) Oh yea also built a 2D canvas editor with boolean operations so i can build cool stuff like ponchos. It also allows me to mark stitches between two objects, which is how the shirt in the video pulls towards the other half. The garment's properties and materials are not yet exposed, yes i know it looks very stiff like a poncho made from a persian rug, we're working on it, okay? So, yea, tbh this is another endless rabbit hole, let's go i guessshow more

yes everything from the human modeling app to the garment feature will be open source MIT go build the future friends, but don't steal my stuff and try to get VC money, it won't work

Try selecting the vertices in the body of the character where the shirt would be, then duplicating them, offsetting them from the character mesh a bit, then solidify modifier (blender) then project a texture and displacement map to generate a normal map and albedo texture for the clothing. Ive found cloth sims to be too finicky

this isn't blender

MD also runs on CPU unless you use an optional GPU mode, your polycount may just be pointlessly high

15k for the whole character idk

what about the cloth you're trying to simulate on? 15k should be fine even for your actual garment though since i was able to run a pretty smooth sim on my old pc with a few objects at 50k+ a piece

i can change it on the sidebar but it's not much, i think the default 1x1 cloth has about 100-ish particles and 2 substeps? idk, i'll ask codex when i'm back on it

if it's only 100 points then it shouldn't be taking 5min to sim that's insane

it is indeed

soon

This is sick. I really want a good marvelous designer clone. Character Clothing always been a pita🙌

Talked to an inventor who coded in machinecode, way back. Then ppl thought graphic user interface was cheating. Now he works with AI. Its all a language and we still need to have good ideas.

interesting way to get dressed in the meta 😸

amazin work

this is awesome

Bruh you realise you're two or three days away from "Fashion QWOP": player gets 20 seconds to cut and clothe a model with a pure physics sim. Model walks down runway. Clothes fall off, trip them up, etc.

👀

Drop me a notification when I can beta test pls.

The journey has begun. You got this Robot

vibecoded clo3d!!! this is sick bro!

codex running subliminal ads for marvelous designer instead of building it is peak ai

So what you’re saying is you are one step closer to building the next Barbie dress designer? Where do I invest? (Awesome work)

i am certainly doing something everyday go subscribe and be shocked at my sub prices

😂 they should let you rename it to token machine.

the triangulated-from-2D-patterns thing is honestly the move. most hobby cloth sims skip that part and then spend weeks wondering why nothing drapes right. also massive respect for treating the AI like a collaborator you actually push back on. that's the whole game

Probably your most interesting job but you are not realizing it

what do you mean

@threejs I’m Persian and offended by the remark.🙂

the part i like about vibe coding projects like this is you'd never have started building a 3D garment tool from scratch otherwise. the barrier to experimentation is gone. whether it holds up to real use is a separate question.

you know what i like? people writing human responses instead of running fucking openclaw automate reply shit in my posts

Funny you sayying this as a robot, and who said I'm using OpenClaw

don't try to pretend you aren't running some ai agent to mass reply caught your ass

Cool! Looking forward to seeing the rest! Can I ask you something though… what is your endgame? Are you making something to sell, or just for fun? And so, what are you making besides all these little projects. Like is there a grander picture?

😂😂😂! still confused though

well you asked for a 25 page business concept and i gave you the short answer

I’d like the management summary 😘

lol this is fascinating. Looks like you mainly need more resolution in your simulated mesh prims. I don't think there would be a whole lot more to it than that for the stiffness problem

probably yea, but also i do want some control over different pieces, a shirt should feel different than jeans

yeah, in marvelous they have different settings for like remesh resolution and fabric properties

interesting, never used it

What percentage of the code is generated by AI?

100%

It left a deep impression on me, and I was a bit shocked. But I seriously doubt whether it can accomplish all the functions of a complete clothing design system. What you've shown so far only looks somewhat similar; there's still a gap before it becomes fully usable for others.

idk let's find out

codex heard "cloth sim" and immediately became a Marvelous Designer affiliate. The nerve. Browser AAA is a crazy bet, watching this one
