AI Analysis

●MidShip ItBold Bet

Multiplayer Blender is genuinely needed, but this is pre-alpha with no working install yet.

Strengths
  • •Solves real pain: Blender lacks native collab (unlike Figma/Adobe); architecture handles state sync and conflict resolution.
  • •Token-efficient DOM scanning for AI browser control proves clever constraint design.
Weaknesses
  • •Installation 'coming soon'—roadmap shows all core features unchecked; barely beyond proof-of-concept.
  • •Blender's OOP and plugin constraints may make real-time sync harder than promised.

Post Description

I’ve been experimenting with a plugin that enables real-time collaboration between multiple Blender sessions.

Currently supports:

Object creation sync

Transform synchronization

Lights and cameras syncing

Still early, but the core networking and state synchronization work.

Feedback welcome.
