Overview

Hunyuan3D-1.0 generates textured 3D meshes from a text prompt or a single image. It runs a multi-view diffusion model, then a sparse-view reconstruction model, with Hunyuan-DiT handling text-to-image. Lite and standard variants ship with a CLI and a Gradio demo; the README cites about 10 s (lite) and 25 s (standard) per mesh.

Who it is for: Engineers with a 16 GB+ NVIDIA GPU trying open text/image-to-3D models

Strengths

  • Accepts text or image input, with bilingual Chinese and English prompts
  • Lite and standard variants; split-module scripts fit 10-16 GB GPUs
  • Includes CLI, Gradio demo, texture mapping and optional texture baking
  • Checkpoints on Hugging Face plus a hosted demo space

Weaknesses

  • Needs 30 GB VRAM for standard, 22 GB for lite; --save_memory slows inference
  • Heavy install: CUDA 12.1 PyTorch, pytorch3d, nvdiffrast and a dust3r checkout
  • Baking depends on DUSt3R under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, so non-commercial only
  • Gradio demo has no auth; pinned torch 2.6.0 has a known CVE

What it needs

  • GPU required
  • Needs PyTorch (CUDA 12.1), pytorch3d, nvdiffrast, DUSt3R, Hunyuan-DiT weights, huggingface-cli
  • Models: Hunyuan3D-1 lite, Hunyuan3D-1 std, Hunyuan3D-1 svrm, HunyuanDiT-v1.1-Diffusers-Distilled
  • port 8080

Quick answers
