Title:
Generative World Renderer at the Speed of Play

Arxiv:
http://arxiv.org/abs/2607.18703v1

Abstract:
Generative world renderer AlayaRenderer receives structured world states exported from physics engines and synthesizes RGB frames. Unlike models that generate frames from text/control-hints prompts, AlayaRenderer preserves scene structure without altering the underlying world dynamics. This demonstrates an alternative path toward interactive world modeling and user-controllable play. However, the original AlayaRenderer is too computationally expensive for real-time deployment. This technical report introduces AlayaRenderer-Flash, a real-time-oriented generative forward world renderer that pushes AlayaRenderer from 0.56 FPS to 31.54 FPS, reaching the speed of play. AlayaRenderer-Flash reformulates the original renderer as a few-step autoregressive streaming model and introduces lightweight distilled codecs for efficient latent encoding and frame reconstruction. It retains the teacher model's G-buffer and text-prompt interfaces while enabling continuous rendering over input streams of unbounded length. We evaluate AlayaRenderer-Flash on G-buffer streams across content preservation, temporal consistency, cross-window stability, prompt controllability, and runtime efficiency. Our results show that AlayaRenderer-Flash substantially reduces inference cost while preserving the core rendering capabilities of the teacher model. By integrating AlayaRenderer-Flash with a physics engine, we build a fully playable generative world running at 30 FPS.
