San Jose, CA, July 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/-Reallusion announces the open beta for AI Render, a completely free plugin that includes character creators and iClone, including Reallusion's intuitive 3D software.
Reallusion launches an open beta for AI rendering plugins. This is a powerful and completely free tool to bridge real-time 3D animations with AI-powered renderings that are seamlessly integrated into your Comfyui workflow.
ReallusionAI rendering for iClone & character creators with comfyui integration, available in open beta
AI rendering allows for stylized 3D characters and scene revisualization through a streamlined pipeline that supports both rapid visual exploration and consistent AI-driven reimage of stills and video production.
As a leading developer of real-time 3D animation tools, Reallusion enables experts and enthusiasts to walk with confidence in the future of 3D media creation as well.
The AI Rendering Open Beta is currently live and is now available on the official Reallusion forum. Users can download plugins, access tutorials, and connect to development teams and Active Communities.
Important features
Seamless 3D and AI integration
The AI rendering foundations are built on a custom node in Reallusion for Comfyui, allowing for seamless bidirectional connections between AI workflows and Reallusion 3D tools. Full 3D scene data, including character poses, lighting, and camera angles, is transferred directly from iClone and character creators, with no technical setup required.
This integration is fully built into the intuitive UI of iClone and CC, allowing you to work visually and interactively while generating AI content with precision and creative control.
22 Built-in Style Preset
AI rendering includes 22 professionally tuned presets across three categories: realistic, 3D stylized and 2D illustration. Each preset comes with optimized control net settings, prompt templates, and configuration rendering for quick and consistent results.
Prompt + Reference-Based Customization
Users can use traditional text prompts or reference images to guide AI results. The plugin supports IP adapters. This allows AI to match the style and tone of uploaded images without the need for complex, rapid engineering.
Accurate 3D Control Net Guidance
Unlike AI tools that rely on 2D estimation, AI Render uses 3D-driven control net inputs for stable and accurate generation across frames.
Depth: Spatial layering and facial accuracy pose: reliable skeletal tracking, even occlusion standards, surface illumination and shading edges (Canny): clean outlines for stylized rendering All inputs are generated directly from the real-time 3D environment built into ICLONE and character creators. This makes it quick and intuitive to build a structured scene that provides the consistent frame-by-frame guidance required by AI.
Creating a LORA dataset for character consistency
LORA (low rank adaptation) training is supported to maintain a consistent character look throughout the AI video. AI rendering does not perform direct training, but uses batch rendering, pause libraries, and automatic camera paths to allow for rapid dataset creation in iClone. Reallusion provides project templates to help you generate LORA training sets for unique characters.
AI-driven storytelling with letter IP
AI rendering is perfect for creators to develop original IP characters. Character Creator and iClone allow users to design fully equipped, craftable characters. AI rendering extends use to AI-generated films, commercials and stylized storytelling. While maintaining a consistent look, expression and style.
This is not only visual AI, but characters can now be displayed in AI-generated content with the continuity and expressiveness of real actors.
Compatibility and requirements
System requirements:
Operating System: Windows 10 or higher GPU: NVIDIA RTX 30 Series (minimum 8GB), AMD GPU is not supported Storage: ~80GB Full Model Installation Software Requirements Recommended.
Stable diffusion 1.5, WAN2.1 FUN 1.3B control and WAN2.1 VACE 1.3B (default local model) flux, HIDREAM, and FUSIONX are supported, but Realz, a cloud GPU platform, requires a more powerful hardware setup. output.
Community Challenge: Get 5 Character Creators
To celebrate the release, Reallusion is hosting the public AI transformation challenge from July 24th to August 22nd, 2025. Participants can use AI rendering to convert Character Creator 4 (CC4) characters, and send images or videos to give them the opportunity to earn a free copy of Character Creator 5 (CC5).
