Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Accessing Hunyuan3D 3.0

1
Accessing the Hunyuan3D Platform

This step involves navigating to the Hunyuan3D website and logging in to access the 3.0 version.

  1. Navigate to the Hunyuan3D website: Go to 3d.hanuan.tens.com or visit the official Hunyuan3D platform.
  2. Translate the page: If the website is in Chinese, right-click and select "Translate to English". If it remains in Chinese, manually select English from the translation options.
  3. Log in: Click on the login button and choose the mail option.
  4. Enter your email: Input your email address and click on get verification code.
  5. Enter the verification code: Input the code you received and click login.
Pro Tip

Use the Chrome browser for automatic translation of the website.

Account Creation

Make sure to use a valid email address for verification. The verification code is sent immediately and is required to log in.

Step 2: Generating a 3D Model from a Single Image

2
Generating a 3D Model from a Single Image

This step details how to upload an image and configure the settings to generate a 3D model using Hunyuan3D 3.0.

  1. Upload an image: Click on the upload area and select your image. JPEG format is recommended for faster upload times.
  2. Select version 3.0: Ensure that you select 3.0 from the version dropdown menu.
  3. Set face count: Choose 1.5 million face count for the best quality and most detail.
  4. Select generation type: Choose between geometry and texture stages (generates model without textures first) or geometry and texture (generates model with textures directly).
  5. Generate the model: Click on generate now to start the generation process.
Quality Settings

Higher face counts produce more detailed models but take longer to generate. The 1.5 million face count option provides the best balance of quality and generation time.

Pro Tip

Use JPEG format for your images to reduce upload time without significantly affecting the final model quality.

Step 3: Generating a 3D Model from Multiple Images

3
Generating a 3D Model from Multiple Images

This step explains how to use multiple views (front, rear, left, right) to generate a 3D model.

  1. Switch to multi-view: Select multiple pictures instead of single image.
  2. Upload images: Upload the front view, rear view, left view, and right view in the correct order.
  3. Select version 3.0: Ensure that you select 3.0 from the version dropdown menu.
  4. Set face count: Choose 1.5 million face count for the best quality and most detail.
  5. Select generation type: Choose geometry and texture.
  6. Generate the model: Click on generate now to start the generation process.
Pro Tip

For best results with multi-view generation, ensure all images have consistent lighting and scale. The model quality improves significantly when using properly aligned views.

Image Order

The order of images matters! Make sure to upload them in the exact sequence: front, rear, left, right for optimal results.

Step 4: Accessing and Navigating 3D Studio

4
Accessing and Navigating 3D Studio

This step guides you through accessing the 3D Studio interface and its main components.

  1. Go to 3D Studio: Click on the 3D Studio button on the Hunyuan3D website.
  2. Enter the studio: Click on either roll or tool.
  3. Explore the interface: Familiarize yourself with the interface, including the geometry generation, component splitting, map and levels (not yet opened) tabs.
3D Studio Features

The 3D Studio interface provides advanced tools for post-processing your generated models, including segmentation, UV unwrapping, and texture painting.

Step 5: Using the Part Segmentation Tool

5
Using the Part Segmentation Tool

This step explains how to use the part segmentation tool to split a 3D model into separate components.

  1. Go to generated assets: Navigate to the assets tab and select the 3D model you want to segment.
  2. Download the model: Download the model in FBX format.
  3. Go to component splitting: Click on the component splitting tab.
  4. Upload the model: Upload the downloaded FBX file.
  5. Split the model: Click on split immediately to start the segmentation process.
  6. Adjust boundaries (optional): Use the boundary adjustment tab to scale parts up or down and regenerate the boundaries.
  7. Download the segmented model: Once you are happy with the segmentation, download the model as an FBX file.
Pro Tip

Part segmentation is especially useful for game development and 3D printing, where you need individual components separated for animation or separate printing.

File Format

Make sure to download your model in FBX format before uploading to the component splitting tool. Other formats may not be supported.

Step 6: Using the Low Topology Mode

6
Using the Low Topology Mode

This step explains how to reduce the polygon count of a 3D model using the low topology mode.

  1. Select the low topology mode: Navigate to the low topology mode.
  2. Choose settings: Select between low, middle, and high model face count, and between triangular and four sides.
  3. Generate: Click generate now to generate the low poly version of the model.
Low Topology Benefits

Low poly models are essential for real-time applications like games and AR/VR experiences where performance is critical. Choose the face count based on your target platform.

Pro Tip

Use triangular topology for game engines like Unity and Unreal Engine, as they typically work better with triangulated meshes.

Step 7: Using the UV Unwrapping Mode

7
Using the UV Unwrapping Mode

This step explains how to generate UV maps for a 3D model using the UV unwrapping mode.

  1. Select the UV unwrapping mode: Navigate to the UV unwrapping mode.
  2. Upload your model: Upload the 3D model.
  3. Generate UVs: Click generate UVs to create the UV map.
UV Mapping

UV unwrapping is essential for applying textures to 3D models. The UV map defines how a 2D texture wraps around your 3D model's surface.

Step 8: Using the Texture Painting Mode

8
Using the Texture Painting Mode

This step explains how to generate textures for segmented parts of a 3D model using the texture painting mode.

  1. Select the texture painting mode: Navigate to the texture painting mode.
  2. Upload image: Upload the image you want to use as a texture.
  3. Upload model: Upload your 3D model.
  4. Generate: Click generate now to apply the texture to the model.
Pro Tip

This feature is particularly useful for applying consistent textures across segmented parts of your model, ensuring a cohesive look.

Step 9: Using the Workflow Tab

9
Using the Workflow Tab

This step explains how to use pre-built workflows and create custom workflows.

  1. Go to the workflow tab: Click on the workflow tab.
  2. Test a pre-built workflow: Select a workflow and click on it. Upload your image and click run.
  3. Create a custom workflow: Click on create workflow. Drag and drop nodes such as load image, image segmentation, geometry, texture, and end node. Connect the nodes and select the corresponding fields. Click create workflow and then save. Upload your image and run the workflow.
Free Generations

Generating 3D models through the workflow tab does not cost any free generations per day.

Pro Tip

Save your custom workflows for repetitive tasks! This can significantly speed up your 3D generation process for similar projects.
