// how it works

How it works

  1. Pick build or generate

    Game engines and modelers for handcraft; AI tools for text-to-3D assets.

  2. Install the toolchain

    Mature installers and package managers on every platform.

  3. Learn the workflow

    Nodes, scripts, or prompts — each tool has strong community tutorials.

  4. Export anywhere

    Standard formats (glTF, FBX, OBJ) move assets between tools.

// features

Why people love it

Real 3D

True three-dimensional pipelines, not flat approximations.

Real-time rendering

Modern pipelines with PBR, GI, and post-processing.

AI asset generation

Text-to-3D and image-to-3D for rapid prototyping.

No royalties

Ship commercial games without revenue share.

Full source access

Modify the engine itself — impossible with closed tools.

VR/AR ready

Several engines support immersive targets out of the box.

// run it

Run it yourself

  1. Step 1 — Clone the repo

    Download the source and move into the project folder.

    git clone https://github.com/microsoft/TRELLIS.git
    cd TRELLIS
  2. Step 2 — Check the README

    Every project documents its own setup; start with install requirements.

    cat README.md | head -60
  3. Step 3 — Run it

    Follow the project's launch command — Docker, pip, npm, or a binary release.

Questions, answered

Who maintains TRELLIS?

It is an open-source project at microsoft/TRELLIS with 1,352 forks. Check the repo's contributors and recent commits to see how active maintenance is.

Is TRELLIS free for commercial use?

MIT licensed — use it commercially, no strings attached.

How good is AI 3D generation?

Great for prototypes and background assets; hero assets still want an artist's pass.

Do I need to code?

Visual scripting covers a lot; GDScript/Python is easy to pick up.

Can it compete with Unity/Unreal?

Godot has shipped commercial hits; for AAA-scale productions the big two still lead.
