<h1>New and Improved Features</h1>

We're excited to introduce a major upgrade to our 3D asset generation capabilities! Our 3D Asset Generator has been completely redesigned and rebuilt to give you more control, flexibility, and ease in bringing your game's assets to life.

<h1>Multiple Generation Modes</h1>

The new UI makes it easier than ever to generate 3D assets with multiple modes, allowing you to create models in different ways:

1. Text to 3D: Simply describe your asset in detail, and Ludo.ai will generate a 3D model based on your words. The more specific you are, the better the results!

2. Image to 3D: Upload a 2D image - whether it's a sketch, concept art, or even a photo - Ludo.ai will transform it into a 3D model while automatically removing the background.

3. Texture Generation: Upload a 3D file or use a previously generated model and describe the texture you'd like to apply.

4. Model Variation: Modify existing models - whether uploaded by you or previously generated - by adjusting their color, style, or adding new elements with a simple text description.

<h1>Retexture Your Assets with Ease</h1>

We now support re-texturing assets! You can choose any previously generated 3D model or upload your own, then generate a brand-new texture for it using a text prompt.

The original mesh of the asset remains intact, ensuring seamless changes to the surface details without affecting the structure.

<h1>Generate Variations with Simple Controls</h1>

<img src="https://api.flotiq.com/image/0x0/_media-02c9b7bb-3229-4ab9-b635-7ca5a3cf2db4.webp" style="width: 500px; height: 466px;">

Want to make modifications to an existing model? Our variation tool allows you to:

<ul>

<li>Choose a 3D model (previously generated or uploaded)</li>

<li>Adjust both the mesh and texture using simple text instructions</li>

<li>Use two strength sliders to control how much the asset changes</li>

</ul>

<h1>Streamlined User Interface for Seamless Edits</h1>

<img src="https://api.flotiq.com/image/0x0/_media-73fa9aeb-6c1b-431b-9280-0a52b8709fb3.webp" style="width: 500px; height: 165px;">

 We're excited to introduce a new suite of powerful features and improvements to Ludo.ai, designed to make 3D asset creation faster, easier, and more integrated into your game development workflow.

 With these tools, you can generate, refine, and manage 3D assets directly in the Ludo platform—allowing you to focus more on building your game and less on tedious asset creation.

</div>

<h3>Introducing the New 3D Generator Tool</h3>

<img src="https://api.flotiq.com/image/0x0/_media-26b108dc-1e40-4661-9fd1-08a496398f30.png" style="width: 500px; height: 480px;">

The star of this update is our brand-new 3D Generator tool, now available in the main menu. This tool brings multiple input methods for creating 3D models on demand—whether from text prompts, images, or a combination. Here's what you can do with it:

Key Features of the 3D Generator Tool:

1. Text-to-3D: Generate fully textured 3D models from detailed text descriptions. Just describe what you want, and let Ludo.ai do the rest.

2. Image-to-3D: Have a 2D reference image? Convert it into a 3D object with ease, saving you time and effort.

3. Combined Input: Get the best of both worlds by combining text prompts and images for more precise control over your 3D model creation.

4. In-Platform Image Editing: Refine your input images before generating models using the integrated Image Editor. Use tools like masking, text prompts, and editing history to perfect your input.

5. Multiple View Options: Inspect your generated models in both textured and mesh views, ensuring that they meet your expectations from every angle.

6. Various Download Formats: Export your 3D models in multiple formats, including GLB (with textures), STL, PLY, OBJ, and OFF, making them easy to use in other tools.

These features empower you to create high-quality prototypes and concepts in minutes, no matter where you are in your game development process.

<h3>3D Asset Generation Directly in the Chat Assistant</h3>

<img src="https://api.flotiq.com/image/0x0/_media-ec639618-b5ce-49c8-9744-006a016654b9.png" style="width: 500px; height: 499px;">

We've also added 3D asset generation capabilities to Ludo.ai's Chat Assistant. This means you can create 3D models directly through natural language prompts, making the process more intuitive and interactive.

Here's How It Works:

1. Standalone Chat Assistant: Accessible from the main menu, simply ask the assistant to create a model for you. For example, try: "Create a 3D model of a cyberpunk sheep."

2. "Ask Ludo" in Game Concept Documents: While working on your Game Concept, use the "Ask Ludo" feature to request 3D models relevant to your document's context. For example: "Suggest a 3D model for a sci-fi weapon based on this concept."

3. Iterate and Download: Refine your models with follow-up prompts, then download the assets directly from the chat.

<h3>New "Assets" Section in Game Concept Documents</h3>

<img src="https://api.flotiq.com/image/0x0/_media-b1a1525d-7a64-40a1-8b32-7b76f54a953e.png" style="width: 500px; height: 402px;">

Managing 3D assets during game development can be challenging, so we've made it easier by introducing a dedicated "Assets" section in your Game Concept documents.

What's New in the Assets Section:

• Dedicated Asset Management: Keep your assets organized by adding them directly to your Game Concept documents.

• On-the-Spot Generation: Create specific assets directly within this section, without leaving the page.

• Coming Soon: Ludo.ai will soon suggest 3D assets based on the contents of your Game Concept, further streamlining your workflow and sparking new ideas.

<h3>From Concept to Prototype: Use Cases for the 3D Generator</h3>

<img src="https://api.flotiq.com/image/0x0/_media-fca6159c-dd81-4ba6-8b56-adab566eb5e7.png" style="width: 500px; height: 362px;">

The 3D Generator tool is perfect for rapid prototyping, concept visualization, and inspiration. Here are a few ways it can supercharge your game development process:

1. Rapid Prototyping Quickly generate placeholder 3D assets to test gameplay mechanics, level layouts, and overall game feel. This allows you to iterate faster without waiting on fully polished models.

2. Concept Visualization Bring your ideas to life in 3D during the early stages of development. Visualizing concepts in 3D can be invaluable for communicating your vision to your team, investors, or publishers.

3. Inspiration and Iteration Experiment with different styles, themes, and variations to spark new ideas. The tool allows you to iterate quickly and refine your creative direction.

4. Asset Ideas for Game Jams Participating in game jams? The 3D Generator can be a lifesaver. Generate quick assets to populate your game world, so you can focus on gameplay mechanics and replace them with polished models later.

<h3>Current Strengths and Limitations</h3>

While the 3D Generator produces impressive models, it's important to understand its best use cases and limitations.

The generated models are ideal for:

<ul>

 <li>Prototyping</li>

 <li>Concept visualization</li>

 <li>Inspiration</li>

</ul>

However, for final, game-ready assets, you may need to:

<ul>

 <li>Refine the models</li>

 <li>Re-topologize</li>

 <li>Apply textures in dedicated 3D modeling software.</li>

</ul>

Think of these models as starting points that can accelerate your early design and development phases, rather than finished assets ready for production.

<h3>What's Next?</h3>

We're constantly improving the 3D Generator tool to enhance the quality and variety of models it can produce. In the near future, expect to see:

<ul>

 <li>More refined asset suggestions based on your game concepts.</li>

 <li>Improved texturing and detailing for game-ready assets.</li>

 <li>Additional customization options for more control over your generated models.</li>

</ul>

<h3>Ready to Try It Out?</h3>

The new 3D asset generation tools in Ludo.ai are live now! Whether you're creating assets for a game jam, visualizing a new concept, or simply looking for a way to streamline your game development workflow, these tools are designed to make the process faster, easier, and more creative.

All visualizations and data presentations have been updated to reflect these changes, making it easier than ever to understand your game's position in the market and identify specific areas for improvement. To better reflect the accuracy and stability of the Ludo Score, the scoring system has been refined to use a clearer 1-10 scale instead of the previous 0-100 range.

With these new additions, Ludo Score becomes an even more valuable tool throughout your entire development process, from initial concept to final polish.

Happy creating!
