What can you do with a SINGLE CLICK? Turns out, a lot.
What can you do with a SINGLE CLICK? Turns out, a lot.
From cleaning the mesh, to UV mapping, generating a texture and baking - all you need is a single click.

What's the Problem?
📉Exported Voxel models have ugly geometry.
Exported models from any Voxel Editing Software usually have really dense geometry. This is because the color data is stored as geometry in voxel models, meaning a flat surface with color patterns won't be a single face but a lot of faces (Illustrated). This is the reason such models can't be just decimated for cleaning, as it destroys the colors.📉Exported Voxel models have ugly geometry.
🫧Cleaning is needed for these models to perform well.
Whether the model is for a game or a mere website upload, the model size matters. The denser the model geometry the more processing power it demands and hence the more lag. Voxel model cleaning comes into play.🫧Cleaning is needed for these models to perform well.
⏳Cleaning is time-consuming and cumbersome.
Often a boring procedure, it can sometimes take more time to Clean the model than to make it in the first place! Usually takes DAYS depending on the complexity of the model.⏳Cleaning is time-consuming and cumbersome.

But How Does It Work?
But How Does It Work?
Once you press the clean model button, a series of procedures are executed in order, resulting in a cleaned model. These are -
- Checking the model type(ie, Voxel, Non-Voxel, MC etc) to determine the cleaning process that will take place
- Model Fixing, ie, removing duplicate vertices etc.
- Material Generation and Editing
- UV mapping, using Blender's Cube Projection method
- Geometry Decimation, using Blender’s Decimate modifier
- UV Scaling, for Pixel-Perfect textures
- And finally, Texture Baking using Blender's Cycles render engine.
Besides these, there is a 2-Step Process that provides more control over the UV process as well!
