Hey Hunters, I've been building Charmed since December of last year, though we really got rolling this May. This AI Texture Generator is the first in a series of tools designed to make the 3D asset creation process much faster and easier for game developers and artists. This tool can, and has, produced production quality results with consistent styles across many game meshes. It's well suited for re-styling your arsenal in a shooter, or getting character wearables ready for a seasonal event. If you're operating a free-to-play game, the Charmed AI Texture Generator can help you keep your asset store full of new, high quality content. In addition to describing your desired texture in a natural language prompt (think Midjourney but in 3D), we also provide a set of tools for artists to guide and tweak the result. For example, you can set a background image that influences color palette and high level style. You can provide guidance textures (like line drawings and normal maps) that can make sure every generated texture has certain details. You can also "patch" areas of the final texture using AI to see variations on smaller details. We're running a free beta to make sure that this product is producing high quality, meaningful results for our users. If you're using this tool, we'd love to get your feedback and add your use-cases to our growing list of quality checks. Please join us on Discord!

The Charmed AI Texture Generator appears to be a game-changer for 3D game developers. How does it strike a balance between automation and allowing artists to maintain their creative touch when generating textures?

@ricardo_luz Our view is that AI tools are like water wheels- they sit inert until water passes through to make them do useful work. In our case, the artist provides the water- or the creative force- that makes the wheel turn. More concretely, that means providing a number of tools for artists to control and guide the generative process. For example, you can provide a line art texture that defines details you want to appear in every texture (e.g. you might want bolts to appear in the same place for every vehicle texture). We also aim to provide tools to let artists train their own models on concept art or existing textured objects to control the style, theme, and finer details produced by the AI.

Excellent work; how does the 3D scene work inside the site? Is it 3JS?

@suchback Thank you! Yes, we use threejs to manage the WebGL scene. It's a great library!

Hey Jeremy, Wow! I'm beyond grateful for tools like this that will not only speed up the creative process but also empower artists with the flexibility to curate assets for various themes. A massive shoutout to you and people for bridging the gap between technology and artistry. This will undeniably be a vital tool in the toolkit of many! Some feedback: Just tried the app. the texture preview looks great. but it seems the UV mapping on 3d model still need some improvement.
