Hunyuan3D V3 Text-To-3D

WaveSpeedAI Hunyuan3D v3 Text-to-3D

Hunyuan3D v3 Text-to-3D is a 3D asset generation wrapper that turns a short text description into a downloadable 3D model you can use in DCC tools (Blender/Maya), game engines, or product visualization pipelines. It’s designed for fast iteration: describe an object, pick a generation mode (textured vs. geometry-only vs. low-poly), and generate a mesh with an optional texture/material setup.

This task is best for single-object assets (props, furniture, simple characters) where you want a usable starting point and can refine topology/materials afterward.

Key capabilities

• Text-to-3D generation with multiple output styles Choose between textured meshes, geometry-only (white model), or low-poly variants depending on your target workflow.

• Low-poly generation with topology control In low-poly mode, you can control polygon style (triangle vs. mixed quad/tri) for game-ready or edit-friendly meshes.

• Optional PBR material generation Enable PBR materials for more realistic shading (e.g., metal/roughness/normal-style textures), when supported by the selected generation type.

• Face-count targeting for mesh density Generate higher-detail or lighter meshes by specifying a target face count within the supported range.

• Standardized 3D file outputs with preview Results typically include a downloadable 3D file (e.g., OBJ/GLB) plus a preview image URL for quick inspection.

Parameters and how to use

• prompt: (required) Text describing the 3D asset you want.
• generate_type: Generation mode. Typical values include Normal, LowPoly and Geometry.
• enable_pbr: Whether to generate PBR materials (when supported by the selected mode).
• face_count: Target face count for the generated mesh (within the supported range).
• polygon_type: Polygon style for LowPoly generation (triangle or quadrilateral).
• image_url: Optional image URL (primarily used for Sketch mode).
• image_base64: Optional base64-encoded image (primarily used for Sketch mode).

Prompt

Write prompts like you’re briefing a 3D artist:

• Start with the object and its category: “a modern desk lamp”, “a sci-fi handheld scanner”.
• Add shape cues: silhouette, proportions, key parts (“cylindrical base, articulated arm, conical shade”).
• Add material and finish: plastic/metal/wood, matte/glossy, worn/new.
• Avoid clutter: one object per run whenever possible.
• If you need low-poly: say so in the prompt and set generate_type=LowPoly (prompt alone is not reliable).

Example prompt:

“A compact camping lantern, cylindrical body with a handle loop on top, translucent plastic cover, brushed metal base, realistic product photo style.”

Media (Images)

Only include images if you are using a mode that accepts them (for example, generate_type=Sketch).

Supported formats & limits (typical):

• Formats: JPG, PNG
• File size: ≤ 8 MB (after encoding)
• Resolution: shortest side ≥ 128 px, longest side ≤ 5000 px

Other parameters

• generate_type Pick the output style:

  • Normal – textured 3D model (default in many setups)
  • LowPoly – polygon-reduced textured model
  • Geometry – geometry-only (no textures / white model)

• enable_pbr

  • true – generate PBR materials when supported
  • false – standard materials/textures Note: In geometry-only modes, PBR may not apply. <!-- :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7} -->

• face_count

  • Default is commonly 500,000
  • Supported range is typically 40,000–1,500,000 Use smaller values for faster iteration and larger values for more surface detail.

• polygon_type (only when generate_type=LowPoly)

  • triangle (default) – triangle faces
  • quadrilateral – mixed quad/tri faces (often easier to edit)

After you finish configuring the parameters, click Run, preview the result, and iterate if needed.

Pricing

Pricing is parameter-related: the per-run cost typically changes with generate_type and any add-on options (such as enable_pbr and face_count).

The table below shows estimated per-run costs using published point/credit pricing and a representative USD/CNY conversion for December 2025.

Notes

• Treat face count as “target,” not a guarantee. If you need strict budgets (e.g., mobile game assets), plan to retopologize or decimate after generation.
• Use Geometry for downstream texturing workflows. If you plan to texture in Substance or do custom UV work, starting with a clean geometry-only mesh can be easier.
• Start simple, then add detail. A clear base prompt usually produces better structure than a long, highly stylized prompt.
