If you need a baseline comparison, you can swap to the stock TripoSplat UNet from its repository. Keep the UNet, CLIP vision model, and VAEs from the same release family for stable behavior. Reference weights: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/Comfy-Org/Idol">Hugging Face: Comfy-Org/Idol</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://github.com/VAST-AI-Research/TripoSplat">GitHub: VAST-AI-Research/TripoSplat</a>.</p><h3 id="ksampler-(6)"><code>KSampler</code> (#6)</h3><p>Drives the denoising schedule that produces the latent 3D representation. The most impactful controls are <code>steps</code>, <code>sampler_name</code>, <code>scheduler</code>, <code>cfg</code>, and <code>seed</code>. Increase steps for fidelity, adjust CFG to balance adherence to conditioning versus smoothness, and use the seed for reproducibility across runs. Avoid extreme CFG with very low steps, which can introduce unstable geometry.</p><h3 id="vaedecodetriposplat-(55)"><code>VAEDecodeTripoSplat</code> (#55)</h3><p>Turns the final latent into a Gaussian splat. The decisive parameter is <code>num_gaussians</code>, which sets point count and impacts both detail and memory use. Use moderate counts for previews and higher counts for final SPZ exports. Very large counts increase render cost and do not invent new detail beyond what the model inferred.</p><h3 id="comfyswitchnode-(35)-switch:-mask-source"><code>ComfySwitchNode</code> (#35) Switch: Mask Source</h3><p>Chooses between the BiRefNet mask and any alpha or mask you provide with <code>LoadImage</code>. Use the model-derived mask when the input has a busy backdrop. If you supply a clean alpha, switch to your mask to preserve thin structures.</p><h3 id="triposplatsamplingpreview-(97)"><code>TripoSplatSamplingPreview</code> (#97)</h3><p>Provides a quick, low-cost preview of the sampling orientation and rough geometry. Enable this when first testing a subject or when changing checkpoints. It helps you verify framing and scale before committing to a full decode.</p><h3 id="rendersplat-(75)"><code>RenderSplat</code> (#75)</h3><p>Renders the orbit frames used for the preview video. The key controls are image <code>width</code> and <code>height</code>, <code>frames</code>, <code>splat_scale</code>, <code>headlight_shading</code>, and <code>opacity_threshold</code>. Keep an eye on splat scale and opacity threshold together, which govern how soft or tight the point blending appears.</p><p>…</p><h3 id="notes">Notes</h3><p><strong>Idol ComfyUI Image to 3D | Gaussian Splats, SPZ + GLB</strong> - see <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://www.runcomfy.com/comfyui-workflows/idol-comfyui-image-to-3d-gaussian-splats-spz-glb?utm_source=civitai&amp;utm_medium=referral">RunComfy page</a> for the latest node requirements.</p>
