3D Co-Pilot: Quick Start Guide

This guide walks you through the basics of using the Co-Pilot tool, from creating an image gallery to generating your first 3D model.

What is the 3D Co-Pilot?

Co-Pilot is a node-based tool that helps you quickly turn reference images into production-ready 3D models. By automatically removing backgrounds, streamlining image-to-model workflows, and giving you a clear visual pipeline, it makes 3D asset creation faster and easier.

---

1. Upload your image

• Start by creating an Image Gallery node.

• Upload between 1–9 images at a time.

• When uploaded, Co-Pilot will automatically remove the background, replacing it with white.

Workflow Rule: Once an Image Gallery node has been added, no more additional images can be added to that node. To add new inputs, create a new Image Gallery node.

---

2. Connect to an output node

• After creating your gallery, choose where to send it:

  • 3D Model Node → generates a 3D model from your images.

  • Ortho Node → creates another image gallery.

• Connect the nodes by dragging from the gallery to your chosen output.

You can connect up to two output nodes to a single Image Gallery node:

• One Ortho Gallery node

• One 3D Model node

Only one of each type is allowed. Once connected, outputs cannot be disconnected or changed.

3. Generate a 3D model

• Once connected to a 3D Model Node, Co-Pilot will:

  1. Begin the generation process.

     1. You can select between High Poly or Low Poly. Make sure this is selected before you connect to an Image Node.

  2. Provide a preview of the finished model.

  3. Allow you to download your 3D model directly.

---

4. Add more images

• To experiment with new inputs, create another Image Gallery node.

• Upload a fresh set of images and connect them to a new 3D Model node.

• Each image set produces its own unique model.

---

✅ You’re ready to go! With Co-Pilot you can:

1. Upload concept art/images.

2. Auto-remove backgrounds.

3. Generate 3D base models.

4. Explore variations with new inputs.

🌟 Best Practices

To get the most out of Co-Pilot, keep these tips in mind:

• Use clean reference images → clearer inputs mean cleaner outputs.

• Organize your nodes → keep your gallery and model nodes visually separated for easier navigation.

• Experiment often → try different image sets to explore variations and improve results.
