        Do they land ready to go out of the AI, or did you have to modify them? Also, what's the polygon count for these models?

          Once MeshyAI figures out UV Maps it will be game changer. Both those engines look great though!

            @jo-ke said in Modelling a tramway:

            Im former times (15 years ago) we had something like speedmodelling- challenge

            I miss that.
            It was super fun.

              the file is heavy but sketchup can handle it.

              a quick render in Nano Banana.

                    it is so nice to see when plans develop to reality.
                    I've made that planing for the tramwaycompany at 2022:

                    https://www.google.com/maps/@49.8414304,8.6559948,379a,35y,335.42h,51.64t/data=!3m1!1e3?authuser=0&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDEyNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D
                    current status:

                        quick idea of a working tramway. Model in sketchup with parts of the existing tramway, rendered in Twinmotion postprocess in Nano banana.

                        Total time: 2 hours, modelling and rendering

                        su model

                        twinmotion:
                        Image1.jpg

                        final output
