Rodin Ai Text to 3D Unreal Engine 5 Tutorial

Introduction

Hey everyone, Jay from JS Films here. In this tutorial, we're going to explore how to generate 3D props using Rodin Ai's Text to 3D model feature and import them into Unreal Engine for Fortnite or Unreal Engine 5. Let's dive right in!

Step 1: Generating a 3D Model

  1. Navigate to Rodin Ai's Website:

    • You can either import an image or use the Text to 3D option.

  2. Input Text for 3D Model:

    • Click on the "Text Input" button.
    • Enter a description; for instance, "old rusty metal barrel."
    • Refresh until you find a shape you like.

  3. Select and Generate:

    • Click on the check mark once you find a suitable shape.
    • Click "Generate" to see different variations until satisfied.

  4. Finalize Shape:

    • Once happy with the shape, click "Confirm."
    • Choose the polygon count (e.g., 10,000 for UEFN).
    • Answer if the object is symmetrical.
    • Proceed to generate.

Step 2: Adjusting PBR and Exporting

  1. Set PBR and Reference Strength:

    • Adjust the PBR temperature (e.g., set to 7).
    • Set reference strength (e.g., to 1 for closest match to the image).
    • Click "Generate."

  2. Confirm and Export:

    • After generating the rusty barrel, click "Confirm" to finalize the material.
    • Choose the export format (base model obj or fbx).
    • Set texture resolution (e.g., 1K textures).
    • Click "Download."

Step 3: Importing into Unreal Engine

  1. Open Unreal Engine for Fortnite or Unreal Engine 5:

    • Create new folders and import the 3D assets generated.

  2. Handle Multiple Models:

    • Generate multiple 3D props if needed.
    • Import all assets into Unreal Engine.

  3. Automatic Nanite Integration:

    • UEFN automatically converts objects to Nanite.
    • Preview the objects in-game to see the result.

Conclusion

I generated six different assets in under 20 minutes using Rodin Ai's Text-to-3D feature. Even at 1K textures, the results are impressive and realistic, making this tool highly promising for creating game assets.
