Someone integrated Pixal3D into Modly

This was generated fully locally on a GPU with only 8GB VRAM

You just need to create your workflow directly in Modly, then let it generate the 3D model

[Lightning Pixel @lightningpiixel]

Modly is my first publicly released project
I chose open source for this project, and i dont refret it !
It's really satisfying to see the community get involved and believe in your project !

[Modly @modly3d]

Modly now has early MacOS support 🎉

I couldnt fully test it yet, so i need Mac users to try it

2 extensions should work for now, but this is still experimental.

- Hunyuan 3D Mini
- Hunyuan 3D Mini Turbo

If you test it, please share feedback or bugs 🙏

[Modly @modly3d]

A contributor just built a Trellis2 extension for Modly

Text prompt into 3d model with texture generation

This is exactly why Modly have an extension system 💪

[Modly @modly3d]

PSX style generation is coming to Modly 👀

A contributor is experimenting with a low poly workflow psx 3D assets

[Modly @modly3d]

Generated this little potion bottle with Modly 🧪👀

[Lightning Pixel @lightningpiixel]

I really didnt expect Modly to get this far

It started as a personal app for local AI 3d generation. Now it has 3.3k+ GitHub stars, 850 Discord members, 12k+ downloads and i'm setting up a public roadmap

Still feels unreal

Open source is wild 👀

[Modly @modly3d]

Testing agent mode in Modly with @ollama and gemma model !

The agent can control Modly, launch 3D generation workflows, and automate parts of the creative process directly inside the app.

It will be able to control all tools available in Modly, including the ones used to edit and refine the mesh.

Still experimental, running locally with ollama, and currently on the dev branch, coming in a next release.

[Modly @modly3d]

We’re working on a tool that lets you use open source AI models for 3D generation, all running locally on your own PC

Right now, you can generate a 3D model from an image

The app is free and open source on GitHub

It’s still in beta, but we’re actively working on it

[Modly @modly3d]

I’ve been working on integrating Trellis 2 into Modly, and here are some results

Everything was done fully locally in Modly, completely free. I just need to finish testing and Trellis 2 will be available for all users

Let me know what you think ! 🙏

[Modly @modly3d]

1200+ ⭐ on GitHub and 300+ people on Discord for Modly

Didn’t expect this level of traction this early.
Thanks everyone for the support 🙏

More will coming soon 👀

[How To Prompt @HowToPrompt__]

Someone just built a desktop app that that generates 3D models from images and runs 100% locally.

It's called Modly. It runs entirely on your GPU, no cloud, no API bills. Just drop an image and get a 3D mesh.

100% Open Source.

THIS DESKTOP APP TURNS IMAGES INTO 3D MODELS LOCALLY ON YOUR GPU WITH ZERO CLOUD COSTS

[Lightning Pixel @lightningpiixel]

RT @modly3d: We’re building Modly — a free & open-source (MIT) desktop app for local 3D generation.

The idea is simple:

- own your pipeli…

[Tristan @TriCast_]

Google just dropped TurboQuant - a new compression algorithm that cuts LLM inference memory by 6x and delivers 8x speedup, all with zero quality loss.

What this actually means:
• Same hardware, way more headroom
• Massive context windows without the slowdown
• Frontier-level AI finally running smooth on modest hardware
• Inference costs dropping hard

Everyone who doubted the base Mac Mini crew? Y'all were wrong.

Google open-sourced this one. Real ones.

2026 is shaping up to be ridiculous for AI. Buckle up. #AI #LLM #localAI

[Lightning Pixel @lightningpiixel]

@KaiXCreator Hey ! I’m working on an open-source AI tool called Modly

It lets you generate 3D models from images locally

Still early but growing pretty fast (670 stars in 5 days) always happy to connect !
