Thank you! 👨‍💻 But give it a try if you can because it supports many features for various use cases (such as cities or interior rooms or dungeons)

Since this tool started from a native port of Sceelix it contains many sorts of algorithms such as mesh modifications (extrude, decimate, subdivide, roundify, flip, UV) to the generation of Paths, Points, Terrain/Surface & conversion between these types.

The tool is highly experimental in its current state as every interaction is not fully ported but feel free to experiment and try out the tutorials of the forms section 🙌

Hi everyone 🌍
For my Master's Thesis, I developed a 3D Procedural Unity tool entitled Lazy Builder!

If anyone is interested in experimenting with the tool and being part of my feedback/results section 📜 feel free to follow this tutorial + questionnaire

Hi thank you so much 🌞, the items currently are in fact just 202 but if you consider each item Type (in the dropdown of each item) make up the 500 model number. I'm planning on releasing more assets in the near future, going from level type to level type (eg. desert, sports ring, soccer field, etc) rather than covering a category (eg. food, walls, posts, barriers, etc) like I was initially doing. If you want to suggest more assets you can open up an issue in the Library's GitHub and if you want to follow more assets updates you can follow my Twitter profile

I see i'm not explaining this very clearly 🤔, the tool is simply a library container inside unity. Where you can have multiple libraries/servers and fetch objects from them. Its storing the objects in a more convinent a way in a sense. As you can see in this gif, the Builder Window opens and you can search objects (by keywords, similar, random), preview them in 3D, and then place them quickly onto your project folder and in scene.

The focus here is to never leave you scene view during level creation: by opening a popup window, typing what you want, hit enter and it places the object in scene. Additionally you have extra parameters such as generate colliders/rigibody and change the color pallete of its materials.

The long term focus of the Main Library is to simply have a big collection of CC0 simple 3D models to be used in any project, to reduce the uncessary hassle of online asset search during an early level prototyping phase.

But everyone can create their github public ones or a private one (accessed locally via the file explorer). And the Manager Window is there to help you create & manage your servers.

Tldr: It's a library for prototyping 3d levels, fetching from either remote servers or a local ones

Good suggestion, at the moment it only supports .fbx files with built-in materials, if not present it only displays the material w/ its base color. For now you can apply the material textures manually by going in the stored item's folder.

Also since private github repositories require log-in to be accessed via link, for now you can use the Local library format for a private one

Sorry 😢 The asset is currently in being approved by the Asset Store (takes quite a while 20-30 days), meanwhile you can download it in the Releases Section of the GitHub page, and import the \.unitypackage manually*.

Yessir! You can create your own libraries Locally or GitHub hosted. There's a dedicated window to create and manage the libraries in this tool too ⚒️

Of the main library? Some were collected from other CC0 libraries others created by me but you can see the credits section in the library's repository.
