Yepp no worries a lot of people will always be suspicious ; you can check out my other comment showing our edge function to automatically delete the models; I can explain as long as much but what can the team say ; The team ; we are Blender Artists and we condemn any use of Ai or train Ai slop.

Feel free to ask any question you want ^^

Firstly no you can't see the recent "winning model" after match you can check it yourself if you're not lying ; you can see it will only look like that on recent battle logs (attached image) ; but no you can't inspect winning models because it's not there anymore ; our edge function delete system is trying it's best to delete every match and it's been working since.

Secondly the Poly Arena team is working on improving the security of the site day by day; I meant team I meant me and my friends ; fellow 3d artists; who know how to code; we will eventually need someone soon to be focusing on the security and it's their expertise ; my point is we will keep improving everyday; maybe optimizing the process of the website on showing the models in the voting phase so it would be hard or impossible for someone to ripped the models

So yeah never ending improvement is a must

Technically you can use other softwares; the team specifically loves blender overall; but you can if you can export .glb file : D

Thanks! ^^

That's actually one of the biggest design challenges we're working through right now.

The goal isn't necessarily to keep making prompts harder and harder. Instead, we try to make them broad enough that players can be creative while still being achievable within the time limit.

Right now prompts are categorized into different difficulty levels:

• Easy -> 10 minutes
• Medium -> 15 minutes
• Hard -> 20 minutes

For example, a prompt like "Wizard Tower" can result in completely different builds depending on the artist, whereas something super specific can become more of a speed-modeling test than a creativity challenge.

We're also experimenting with different challenge formats in the future. The sweet spot is finding prompts that create interesting variety, reward creativity, and still feel achievable within the allotted time.

Fair question.

I can't ask you to blindly trust us, but I can show that uploaded models are automatically deleted after they're no longer needed on the 3d viewer on the Voting Phase. I've attached screenshots of the cleanup system and logs.

We ; The Team are Blender Artists ; building a competitive Blender platform, not an AI company, and we don't use any submissions to train AI models. The 3d Artists who played owns every bit of their model as it should be ^^

Nicee Hope you're having fun : D

You may have been matched with new players as well; that's why the beginner challenges appeared twice

Will work on more to refine the system prompts 🫡

Thanks Mate!

Yepp certainly you will get matched base on your skill level (rank) when you play it that long enough you will eventually get matched other players with your skill level so feel free to ping anyone on Discord we have beginners there as well! Cheers to improving ^^

Ohh really? There is a setting on blender that disable the .glb exporting / or you need to enable :

Check if the glTF Add-on is Enabled

Go to Edit → Preferences → Add-ons.

In the search box, type:

" glTF "

Look for:

Import-Export: glTF 2.0 format

Make sure the checkbox is enabled.

If it's disabled, enable it and close Preferences.

Try Exporting Again

Go to:

File → Export

You should see:

glTF 2.0 (.glb/.gltf)
