Since I’ve only just started learning, I ran into a problem on the simplest possible model: a cylinder. I made a basic 20-sided cylinder (0.6 m in… -
How are you actually handling AI-generated mesh cleanup before engine handoff?
Been integrating Meshy and Tripo outputs into UE5 pipelines for a while now and the generation step is no longer the problem — topology and textures come out reasonably usable for props and background assets. The problem is everything between export and the asset actually being in the project correctly. My current manual… -
