For creators and researchers in immersive content and embodied AI, this framework makes generative 3D worlds practically usable for editing and interaction, addressing a key limitation of current static world models.

WorldAct converts static generated 3D worlds into editable, interaction-ready scenes by decomposing them into object-level meshes and restoring backgrounds via 3D inpainting, enabling object-level editing and embodied task execution while preserving scene coherence.

Recent 3D world modeling systems based on generative scene synthesis, such as Marble, can create coherent and explorable 3D environments, yet their outputs are typically static monolithic assets with limited editability and physical interaction. This restricts their use in immersive content creation and embodied simulation, where generated worlds must be actively modified and manipulated. To tackle this challenge, we present WorldAct, a framework that converts static generated 3D worlds into editable and interaction-ready scenes. WorldAct uses a multimodal agent to guide scene decomposition, identify actionable objects, reconstruct geometrically aligned object-level meshes for interaction, and restore the residual background via 3D inpainting. The resulting scenes support object-level editing, collision-aware manipulation, and embodied task execution while preserving global scene coherence. Experiments show that WorldAct enables richer interaction scenarios than the original generated scenes, suggesting a practical path toward editable and interactive 3D world models.
