About

Most image-to-3D pipelines squeeze geometry through implicit fields and lose thin structures along the way; TRELLIS.2 instead generates a field-free sparse voxel format called O-Voxel that stores arbitrary surface attributes directly, so open surfaces, non-manifold joints, and fine topology survive intact. A sparse 3D VAE with 16x spatial downsampling feeds a plain diffusion transformer at 4B parameters, and every output carries full PBR materials covering base color, roughness, metallic, and opacity, ready for game engines and DCC tools. Generation is fast for the class: about 3 seconds at 512^3 resolution and 17 seconds at 1024^3 on an H100. The repo ships inference and training code, a data preprocessing toolkit, web demos, and the 4B weights on Hugging Face; install is a conda-driven script wanting an NVIDIA GPU with roughly 24GB VRAM and CUDA 12.4. MIT licensing on Microsoft's successor to the original TRELLIS has made it the default open choice for production 3D asset generation, reflected in over 10k GitHub stars.

Should you use TRELLIS.2?

Pick it when

Pick TRELLIS.2 when you have a 24 GB NVIDIA GPU and need production-grade, PBR-textured meshes from one image, especially objects with thin parts, open surfaces, or non-manifold joints, under MIT.

Look elsewhere when

Skip it on smaller cards or for text prompts: it needs about 24 GB and CUDA 12.4 and takes images only. TRELLIS handles text at 12 GB, and Hunyuan3D-2 runs shape generation in about 6 GB.

Alternatives to TRELLIS.2

  • TRELLIS

    Its predecessor, also MIT, accepts text as well as images and runs from 12 GB, but lacks full PBR materials and the O-Voxel topology handling.

  • Hunyuan3D-2

    Text or image input, shape from 6 GB, and a Blender addon, but a community license that excludes the EU, UK, and South Korea.

  • TripoSG

    MIT shape generation on 8 GB from photos, cartoons, or sketches, but geometry only with no PBR textures.

  • Stable Fast 3D

    A lighter feed-forward model: UV-textured meshes with material estimates in under a second on 6 GB, under a revenue-capped license.
