Hexagonal Tile Diffusion

Our hexagonal tiling approach ensures seamless blending at tile boundaries, eliminating visible seams that plague traditional rectangular methods.

  • Seams eliminated by construction
  • Natural blending at all boundaries
  • Works with any diffusion model

Cardinal Prompt Interpolation

Give each cardinal direction its own prompt and watch them seamlessly blend across your 360° panorama — volcanic mountains to the north, frozen tundra to the south, in a single image. Write them yourself, or let the Intelligent Prompt Engine fill every direction for you.

  • 5 interpolation modes: 2-Point Gradient, 3-Horizon, 4-Cardinal, 6-Direction, Tiles
  • Tiles — pick any polyhedron (6–92 faces), let Qwen2.5-VL describe each face from your equirectangular image, and get N geometry-driven directional prompts that track the content as you pan. No typing — fully automatic.
  • Smooth prompt blending across the sphere
  • Works with all pipelines
  • 231 built-in Worlds across 11 categories (Alien Planet, Cyberpunk City, Northern Fjord, Crystal Cavern...)
  • Quality presets (sharp, HD, photo) & negative presets
New

Multi-Pass Rendering

Chain multiple diffusion passes in a single render. Each pass can use a different model, template, and strength — the output of one feeds directly into the next through GPU memory.

  • Per-pass processor, template, strength, and prompt configs
  • Resume from any completed pass on interruption
  • Saveable multipass presets for repeatable workflows
  • GPU-memory chaining between passes
New

Instruction-Based Editing

Describe what you want in plain English. Qwen-Image understands natural language instructions for both generating new panoramas and editing existing ones.

  • Generate and Edit modes
  • Natural language prompts
  • ~13 GB VRAM (20B model, GGUF Q4)

New

Style Transfer

Apply any artistic style to your panoramas while preserving structure. TeleStyle uses diffusion-based transfer for natural, coherent results across the full 360° sphere.

  • Diffusion-based style transfer
  • Structure-preserving
  • ~13 GB VRAM

Intelligent Prompt Engine

Don't fight with prompt syntax. Expand a simple idea into a detailed prompt tuned to the model you're using, or let the app analyze your scene and write the per-direction prompts for you.

  • Model-aware expansion — phrasing & token budget tuned per pipeline (SDXL, FLUX, Qwen, SD3.5)
  • Auto-write cardinal prompts from your global prompt — every direction, one click
  • Local vision analysis (Florence-2 / Qwen-VL) reads your scene and fills directional prompts
  • Optional Claude / OpenAI text expansion with your own API key

Bring Your Own LoRAs

Drop any compatible .safetensors LoRA into your pipeline's folder and load it from the LoRA tab — including the thousands of community LoRAs from sites like Civitai. Stack multiple and tune each one's strength.

  • Per-family folders: SD 1.5, SD 2.1, SD 3.5, SDXL
  • Stack and blend multiple LoRAs
  • Adjustable per-LoRA strength

Bring Your Own Models

Add your own base models by HuggingFace URL or import a local diffusers-format model from disk. 360 Hextile auto-detects the architecture and matches it to a supported family — you're never locked to the bundled checkpoints.
