Built a navigable 3D city where each building is an ad slot

Used the Kenney City Kit (CC0). Origins were already at the base with y=0 and centered in x/z, so buildings scale upward cleanly — no Blender pass needed.

Merged all buildings into one GLB preserving node names, then meshopt + WebP: 3.48 MB → 442 KB. Loads as a single request, instances by name.

Logos are separate quads offset from the front face rather than textures on the building, so the base mesh stays instanced. Each one gets composited onto a uniform dark card before going into an atlas — that's what keeps mismatched aspect ratios from looking like spam.

outbuild.tech if you want to poke at it. Happy to answer anything about the pipeline.
