# linknimiball1974/ai-texture-forge

> A Blender add-on that generates seamless PBR textures, concept art and scene projections from text prompts using local or cloud diffusion models directly in the 3D viewport.

- Magnitude: 4.8 out of 10 — Early signal
- Stars: 429 total · +60 stars measured 2026-11-14, 00:03–11:13 UTC, ≈ 123 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic

## Useful for

- Generate a seamless PBR set for a brick wall directly on the mesh
- Project a depth-aware texture across the whole scene in one pass
- Upscale a generated texture 4x with AI upscaling

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-14 (UTC), 00:03–11:13: 369 → 429 stars (+60). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +123 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 3 days old and already has 429 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #26.
- About 18 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 20
- Issues and pull requests: 41
- Watchers: 170
- Average over the last week: 134 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 3
- Latest release: v1.0.0 (2026-11-11)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
