ComfyUI & 3D Nodes Setup Guide

This guide describes how to configure ComfyUI and install 3D mesh reconstruction nodes for use with Local LLM Server Manager.


Prerequisites

Verify these requirements before installation:

  • NVIDIA GPU with at least 12 GB VRAM for 3D mesh generation.
  • Python 3.10 or 3.11 installed.
  • Git command-line tool installed.

1. Install ComfyUI

  1. Download the official standalone package from the ComfyUI repository, or clone the source repository:
    bash
    git clone https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI.git
    cd ComfyUI
  2. Install Python dependencies:
    bash
    pip install -r requirements.txt
  3. Start ComfyUI:
    • On Windows: Double-click run_nvidia_gpu.bat.
    • On Linux: Run python main.py --listen 127.0.0.1 --port 8188.
  4. Verify that ComfyUI opens at http://127.0.0.1:8188.

2. Install 3D Mesh Generation Nodes

Install custom nodes for TRELLIS V2 and Hunyuan3D v2:

  1. Install ComfyUI-Manager if ComfyUI-Manager is not yet installed.
  2. In the ComfyUI web interface, click Manager in the side panel.
  3. Click Custom Nodes Manager.
  4. Search for and install:
    • ComfyUI-Trellis (TRELLIS V2 Image-to-3D node)
    • ComfyUI-Hunyuan3DWrapper (Hunyuan3D v2 Text/Image-to-3D node)
  5. Restart ComfyUI.

Option B: Manual Git Clone

  1. Navigate to the custom_nodes/ directory in ComfyUI:
    bash
    cd custom_nodes
    git clone https://github.com/JeffreyXiang/ComfyUI-TRELLIS.git
    git clone https://github.com/Tencent/Hunyuan3D-2.git
  2. Install requirements for each custom node package.
  3. Restart ComfyUI.

3. Connect ComfyUI to Local LLM Server Manager

  1. Open Local LLM Server Manager.
  2. Select the Settings tab.
  3. In the Engine Paths & URLs panel:
    • Set ComfyUI URL to http://127.0.0.1:8188.
    • Set ComfyUI Launch Script to your run_nvidia_gpu.bat path.
    • Set ComfyUI Models Directory to your ComfyUI/models folder.
  4. Click Save Settings.
  5. Check the ComfyUI health indicator in the header. Confirm that the status shows 🟢 Online.

4. Export Custom Workflow Presets

You can export any ComfyUI node graph as a preset for the manager:

  1. Open ComfyUI in your web browser (http://127.0.0.1:8188).
  2. Open the ComfyUI settings dialog (gear icon).
  3. Enable Enable Dev mode Options.
  4. Construct your generation workflow.
  5. Click Save (API Format). ComfyUI downloads an API-format JSON file.
  6. Copy the JSON file into the Workflows/ directory in Local LLM Server Manager.
  7. The preset appears in the Studio workflow dropdown menu immediately.
