I extended Three.js Fire Pro to support skinned mesh emitters. A bit heavy for this type of thing but the effect is awesome!

Done

you did this? wow that is really clean

That looks really good

What’s the big difference between Tripo and Meshy? Is Tripo that much better?

mattmac2 days ago

Have you compared Meshy and Tripo? I keep meaning to but Meshy keeps getting better :)

Matt2 days ago

Wow. I kid you not, I paid for a model VERY like this for my souls like game, from CGTrader No one noticed him in the top right of one of my demos haha ( This looks as good, if not better 🤯

Dan Greenheck2 days ago

Yea I was surprised how well it turned out. I just wish Tripo had better textures!

Re textured using codex imagegen, meaning you gave the file to codex and ask him to re texture with an image you provide?

Startracker 🔺2 days ago

GPT made you good UV? I havent tried that it always seems to mess up even though tripo's textures are crap

Diego Machado2 days ago

What do you mean by re-textured using codex image gen? Did you feed it the uv map with the existing textures from Tripo and told it to update ?

Tarih Öğreniyorum2 days ago

it does not look good mate yo know

that YOU SHALL NOT PASS fire scene looks epic 🔥

profile emitter sampling separately from particle rendering before reducing the fire quality.

Looks really good! The course that you are creating, is it going to be a set pre-recorded videos? If it's going to be a live one, that might be an issue for me since I live in Singapore (15 hrs ahead of PST).

Pre-recorded

This is dope, tha is for sharing it! 🤘🏿🌹

how did you get codex to retexture the entire model??

Canopus2 days ago

Reminds me of Roshan from Dota 2.

the fire looks sick

that looks fire 🔥

Looks sick!

That fire reads so physical for the browser. Love the stack too. Is Fire Pro doing the smoke as particles or a volumetric shader?

Alessandro Moretti2 days ago

The fire looks great. How much of the pipeline still needed hand work, the rigging or the textures?

Mixamo mutant anims still carrying in 2026

Using MeshyAI alongside Blender with Codex/Astra for 3D game creation is such an unlock for higher-fidelity characters (the models aren't great at procedurally creating characters in my experience) My workflow starts by generating high-res image refs (in t-pose and nothing else in background) of target characters in Codex/GPT Image 2 (or finding some online) The model then handles image-to-3d via Meshy REST API, as well as rigging + animating the models and integrating them into target game (the latter piece is where frontier models really stand out) I always have the agent create a local studio page so I can view and interact with the generated models! Tl;dr: Bowser T-pose image → 4 Blender reference images → Meshy image-to-3D → Blender cleanup (3M → 35K triangles) → Meshy auto-rigging → walk/run animations → interactive Three.js viewer

This was my first time building a boss entirely in 3D for a pixel art game. I handled modeling, rigging, and animation for some of the main bosses. Here’s a full video demo of the project. The Last Faith by Kumi Souls Games #GameAnimation #gamedev #animation #3d

🥲Alright, it's there now. You can watch it in its HD glory here : This short was made in Blender 🔶 obviously, and rendered using EEVEE NEXT in 4.2 Alpha. All VFX are hand drawn and composited in after effects. Special thanks to : Antony Pico for the Kibali's model (the gorilla) Luciano for his help on one of the shot and the directing Bernardet Thomas for his help on VFX Florent Mounier for the robot concept art. and Gabriel Dalmasso for the amazing sound design and music. #b3D #animation #rigging #art #ZDVFX #Blender

Let's build the next character for the team! I’m continuing to test the modular character setup in UEFN using the Metahuman Component. Works really well with custom NPCs! For this new character, I'm back to a fresh 3D workflow using AssetHub . Still aiming for that flat/ anime style so I can go straight to the Tripo P1 model and get the low poly textured meshes to work with. Assembling and rigging are done in Blender. Again making a shape key for the eyes blinking. Because I'm going to use the same bone structure, I can re-use some Control Rig systems like the hair and eyes procedural animations. The character has 35K triangles and each accessory is about 2.5K.

I turned Raz from Arena of Valor into an animated 3D character running directly in Three.js. 🔥🥊 This is my latest showcase for img2threejs v1.5.2 - and the new version is officially out. Image → TripoAI or Hyper3D → Rigging → Animation → VFX → Three.js. For this demo, I wanted to push beyond simply reconstructing a character. Raz needed to actually FEEL like Raz: explosive punches, fast movement, combat animation, and the fiery VFX around his attacks. The entire workflow was built through the img2threejs pipeline, turning visual references into a character that can be controlled, animated, and extended directly in code. And the best part: img2threejs v1.5.2 is available now. You can try the same pipeline yourself and see how far you can push AI-assisted 3D character creation for Three.js and WebGL. Open source. Built for experimentation. GitHub 👇 #ThreeJS #img2threejs #AI3D #ArenaOfValor

More pre-release GPT Astra outputs for my distinguished audience Both outputs were made in a custom C++20 engine, utilizing a custom Vulkan renderer, without using an off-the-shelf engine or imported assets The Kaiju game has fully simulated crowds with reactive smoke and fire (not static) , and the zombie game can render thousands of zombies on-screen

Ok this is a truly insane NEW way to design for me, WITHIN Codex If you are doing dev on a web technology, watch below In that video: - I am playing my game within Codex (yes) - I use a codex-made tool to design buildings (see some tweets below it's really powerful) - I can ask Codex to iterate and the game changes WITHOUT refreshing - I can point at UI elements - I can take a screenshot All WITHIN Codex It makes iterating on design incredible

So I'm adding learning books for math, science, and languages using the same concept. It's still early, but my kids loved the stories! For some reason, they don't like doing homework on paper. Hopefully, creating a world around it and making it interactive and rewarding will work better. I'm trying different themes like Harry Potter and origami. A lot of people want to create their own, so I'll make a specific course about this and include the source code. For now, you can take my Fable 5.1 game development course and join my webinars:

After getting 90M+ views and 200K+ followers across Twitter, LinkedIn, Tiktok, and Youtube... Part 2 of the AI workflows I use to scale my content without losing authenticity, quality, or taste. Some of my favorite tools: - Brain dump first drafts with Wispr Flow - Codex to sharpen hooks/rewrite and fact check - HeyGen to make small changes without re-filming - HyperFrames + Codex for captions, diagrams, motion - Connect the Buffer API to Codex to write platform-specific captions + schedule posts AI shouldn’t create for you. It should give you more time to focus on what matters to you in the creative process. There are so many tools out there. I'd love to hear what others enjoy using.

But My fury is fulfilled, says the Lord, and I have now kindled a fire in Zion. I have kindled a fire in Zion, in America, in nations throughout the earth, and My fist is about to smack down on Russia, for out of the rebellion of the Ukraine, which was seen by My prophet, shall come out of those ashes, beauty, shall come out of that sadness, joy, shall come out of those garments, praise, says the Lord. I have searched for a man and a woman who would stand in the Oval Office and pray and call for the restoration of the fortunes of Zion. I have looked for a man who would pray for the restoration of the fortunes of Zion. Therefore, if you hear My heart, says the Lord today, I will take you on a journey. I will first take you to Israel, whom they would give Jerusalem to his enemies. Why would they give half of Jerusalem away? This will not happen, says the Lord, for I will take you on a journey today into Jerusalem, where it shall be prophesied through song by My prophet what I intend doing in Jerusalem and in the United States of America at the same time, says the Lord. I am restoring the fortunes of Zion. I am restoring the fortunes that were the inheritance of My people. I am restoring the fortunes of those that are the elect of God and have been stolen from. You shall eat your delicacies again and your children will no longer be your food. You shall not use them and take them out of the womb anymore, says the Lord.

I haven't released a new course in two years because I thought AI would replace education. I was wrong. In a sea of AI slop, good education has never felt more relevant. So I'm releasing DesignCode 5 with a new Codex masterclass. The new site was built entirely in Codex with lots of three.js components: I added homework, tests, certificates, a vault, and weekly live sessions. Pro and Lifetime members also get the Product Pass, with one year of Pro access to Framer, Mobbin, Aura, and more. GPT-5.6 Sol xHigh migrated ten years of content from a large CMS and Dropbox into Firebase. That made me realize I didn't need to build another CMS. With the right skills, Codex can handle video editing, writing, image generation, screen recording, and content updates. I'm spending less time managing everything and more time creating. It's never been more fun. I created a bunch of skills for this workflow. They're all in my repo, and the Three.js components are on Huge thanks to Framer and Mobbin for believing in me and giving our Pro and Lifetime students one year of Pro access. To every new student, welcome. I'll be there every week, giving you direct feedback and teaching you everything I know. DesignCode 5 is 50% off for early adopters right now. There's also a $499 Lifetime option for anyone tired of another subscription.
