## Overview

Multi-View lets you upload up to 3 additional reference images alongside your primary photo — giving Meshy's AI a more complete picture of your subject and producing more accurate 3D geometry on every side. This is available for **Image to 3D** with **Meshy 7**. Meshy 6 and Meshy 6 lite **does not support** Multi-View.

## FAQ

**1.Why did my other angle images disappear after clicking Generate in Multi-View mode?**

If you find that side or back images are automatically cleared after clicking Generate, this is usually caused by browser cache or page state not syncing properly.

**Solution:** Try refreshing the page, clearing your browser cache, or switching to incognito / private browsing mode to re-upload and generate.

**2.Can Multi-View be used together with Smart Topology?**

Not currently supported.Multi-View and Smart Topology are two separate generation pipelines in Image-to-3D and cannot be enabled simultaneously. If you need a quad mesh, we recommend generating the 3D model with Multi-View first, then optimizing the topology using the **Remesh / Retopology** tool.

**3.Is Multi-View free? Can free users use it?**

Multi-View is a feature exclusive to paid subscribers, upgrade to a Pro plan or above at [meshy.ai/pricing](https://meshy.ai/pricing) to continue using Multi-View generation.

**4.Why is the front view missing or the model edges cropped after generating with Multi-View?**

Multi-View generation requires all input reference images to be consistent in size, angle, and subject position.

**Tips:**

- Make sure the subject is centered in each uploaded image with adequate padding around it — avoid subjects that touch or bleed to image edges.

- Ensure the art style, proportions, and background color are completely consistent across your Front / Back / Left / Right images.

- If you're working from an orthographic reference sheet (a multi-angle character or product sheet), crop it into individual single-angle images before uploading each one separately.
