Tripo P2: Quad Topology 3D Model Generation in ComfyUI

Tripo P2 is Tripo’s P-series 3D generation model that outputs native quad-topology meshes. Where traditional text-to-3D and image-to-3D models return triangle meshes, Tripo P2 builds geometry from four-sided faces with clean edge loops around joints and even density on flat surfaces. Quads deform predictably under a rig, subdivide cleanly, and are the standard input for retopology-heavy pipelines in games, film, and product visualization. Tripo P2 supports three input modes: text to model, single image to model, and multiview to model (front, left, back, and right references). Mesh budgets reach 50,000 triangles, or 25,000 quads in quad mode. Texture output is tiered: standard at 2K, detailed at 4K, extreme at 8K, with PBR maps (metallic, roughness, normal) available alongside the base color. In ComfyUI, the P2 nodes work like the rest of the Tripo partner nodes: add the node, provide your input, and the workflow handles texturing, rigging, conversion, and export automatically. No local GPU or model download is required.

​

What Tripo P2 is good at

• Native quad topology: quad meshes with clean edge flow, ready for rigging and animation without manual retopology
• Large mesh budgets: 48 to 50,000 triangles, or 48 to 25,000 quads in quad mode
• Tiered texturing: standard (2K), detailed (4K), or extreme (8K) base color textures, with optional PBR maps
• Three input modes: text prompts, a single reference image, or up to four multiview images (front, left, back, right)

Pricing depends on the selected texture level. See Pricing for details.

Tripo P2: Text to Model

Generate a 3D model from a text description. Tripo P2 first draws a concept image from the prompt (controlled by image_seed), then models the geometry from it.

​

Steps to Run

1. Enter your prompt: describe the 3D model in the Tripo P2: Text to Model node (up to 1024 characters). A negative prompt is available in advanced options
2. Choose the texture level: standard (2K), detailed (4K), extreme (8K), or none for an untextured mesh
3. Toggle quad output: with quad enabled the mesh returns as FBX; disabled it returns as GLB
4. Set the face limit: target face count between 48 and 50,000 (48 to 25,000 with quad), or leave at -1 to let Tripo choose
5. Click Queue: press Ctrl+Enter to generate

After generation, the node requests the texture level you selected, so the mesh is textured as part of generation, and the workflow saves that result directly (the GLB output, or FBX when quad is on). The template also contains TripoTextureNodeV2, TripoRigNode, TripoRetargetNode, and TripoConversionNode nodes, but they are bypassed and disconnected by default: connect and enable them (Ctrl+B toggles bypass) when you want that extra post-processing.

​

Quad output note

When quad is enabled, connect Save 3D to the FBX output slot. When quad is disabled, use the GLB output slot.

​

Tripo P2: Image to Model

Generate a 3D model from a single reference image.

​

Steps to Run

1. Upload a reference image: load a front-view image of your subject with the LoadImage node
2. Choose the texture level: standard, detailed, extreme, or none
3. Toggle quad output: FBX when enabled, GLB when disabled
4. Set texture alignment: original_image matches the input image’s colors, geometry fits the textures to the generated shape (advanced options)
5. Click Queue: press Ctrl+Enter to generate

​

Input tips

• Low-resolution or low-quality images can be enhanced before modeling with the enable_image_autofix advanced option
• align_image orientation rotates the model to the viewpoint of the input image (advanced options)

​

Tripo P2: Multiview to Model

Generate a 3D model from reference views. The multiview node takes a required front view plus up to three of the left, back, and right views, and at least one of those extra views must be connected: with the front view alone the node returns an error. It reconstructs the geometry with the same native quad topology as the other P2 nodes. Input materials Upload these files to the matching LoadImage nodes:

​

Steps to Run

1. Load the reference views: the template ships with a front view (LoadImage node 16) and a back view (LoadImage node 19). The node also exposes image_left and image_right inputs for a four-view reconstruction
2. Choose the texture level: standard (2K), detailed (4K), extreme (8K), or none for an untextured mesh
3. Toggle quad output: with quad enabled the mesh returns as FBX; disabled it returns as GLB
4. Set the face limit: target face count between 48 and 50,000 (48 to 25,000 with quad), or leave at -1 to let Tripo choose
5. Click Queue: press Ctrl+Enter to generate

The workflow saves the generated mesh directly. The texture, rig, retarget, and conversion nodes the template also contains are bypassed and disconnected by default.

Node options reference

Options shared by all three P2 nodes: Advanced options include texture_seed, auto_size (real-world scale in meters), export_uv, and compress_geometry (Meshopt compression; compressed meshes are much smaller but cannot be previewed in ComfyUI’s 3D viewport).
