Guide To 3D in Rive - Part 01

In Part 1 of this GPU Canvas 3D tutorial, we'll build a complete 3D scripting workflow from scratch using AI inside Rive. You'll learn how to plan your 3D architecture, generate custom scripts with AI, import and render 3D models, debug common issues, and build the foundation for creating your own GPU Canvas workflows in Rive.

⚠️ Disclaimer

GPU Canvas and the current 3D workflows are in development and intended for the Early Access version of Rive. APIs, features, and behavior may change over time, and some functionality shown in this tutorial may require additional iteration or debugging.

The scripts generated in this video are created with AI as a starting point. Depending on your prompt, the AI model you use, and your specific project requirements, your results may differ and will likely require additional refinement.

If you'd rather skip the scripting process, I've shared a polished version of these scripts on the Rive Community Marketplace. In Part 2, I'll walk through every controller, shader, and feature so you can start using them right away.
