Native Trellis.2 and Pixal3D Support Lands in ComfyUI

ComfyUI, the node-based visual interface for AI generation, added native support for Trellis.2 and Pixal3D directly into its core codebase. The integration allows creators to generate 3D assets, neural radiance fields, and textured meshes from text or 2D image prompts without installing external custom nodes or managing conflicting Python dependencies. By baking both open-weights 3D models into core, ComfyUI eliminates the setup friction that previously made local 3D generation unreliable.

What's new

ComfyUI now includes dedicated core nodes for Trellis.2 and Pixal3D, two leading open-weights models for image-to-3D and text-to-3D generation. Key updates include:

• Native core execution: Users no longer need to clone third-party repositories via ComfyUI Manager or manually compile CUDA extensions to run 3D pipelines.
• Resolved dependency conflicts: Installing dependencies for Gaussian splatting, mesh extraction, and rendering libraries previously broke standard image pipelines; the native implementation isolates and manages these runtimes out of the box.
• Clean licensing and local weights: Both Trellis.2 and Pixal3D run entirely locally on compatible consumer GPUs, producing standard output formats like OBJ, GLB, and PLY without proprietary cloud API wrappers.

How it fits your workflow

For 3D artists, game developers, and VFX technical directors, this update turns ComfyUI into a complete end-to-end spatial pipeline. Instead of relying on commercial cloud-only 3D generators like Tripo3D, Meshy, or CSM (Common Sense Machines), creators can chain 2D image generation models like Flux.1 or SDXL directly into Trellis.2 or Pixal3D inside a single canvas.

An artist can generate a concept art still, pass it through an upscaler or segmentation mask, and output a clean textured 3D mesh without leaving ComfyUI or exporting intermediate files. Compared to cloud platforms like Luma Genie or Rodin, running Trellis.2 and Pixal3D natively gives developers complete control over sampling parameters, mesh decimation, and texture map resolution while maintaining local data privacy.

What it costs / how to try it

ComfyUI is free, open-source software available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Users can access Trellis.2 and Pixal3D nodes by updating ComfyUI to the latest release and downloading the model weights directly to their local models directory.
