Abstract:Recent game world models can synthesize visually plausible, action-conditioned rollouts. However, their interaction behaviors often remain limited to exploratory or wandering trajectories, and physical dynamics are typically learned as implicit correlations from data rather than as controllable variables. This limitation hinders their applicability to authored game environments, where physical rules are deliberately designed and require explicit manipulation. We introduce PhysEditWorld, a multimodal dataset with physical parameters, with a primary focus on gravity in this initial version. At its core, PhysEditWorld is built upon a replay paradigm implemented with a UE5 replay-and-rendering pipeline. Each scenario records a normalized action trace and replays the same initial state, character controller, action sequence, and camera policy under multiple gravity configurations, enabling controlled and attributable physical variation. PhysEditWorld contains 12 cinematic UE5 scenes, over 100 hours of gameplay interactions, and more than 60 million rendered rollout frames. Each sample provides synchronized multimodal signals, including RGB, depth, normals, audio, action traces, camera trajectory, engine states, semantic annotations, and explicit gravity labels. We further conduct initial utility studies on both generative video models and world understanding models, demonstrating that PhysEditWorld enables improved gravity-faithful dynamics modeling, enhances consistency under physical edits, and provides a scalable foundation for controllable world modeling research.
Abstract:While recent autoregressive video diffusion models achieve remarkable streaming quality, they remain confined to low resolutions (e.g., 480P), leaving efficient, scalable, real-time high-resolution video generation a fundamental open challenge. To bridge this gap, we present Ultra Flash, a cascaded streaming framework capable of real-time high-resolution video generation. Ultra Flash achieves ~30 FPS at 1K resolution and ~18 FPS at 2K resolution on a single GPU through three key contributions: (1) an architecture-preserving T2V-to-TV2V super-resolution training paradigm coupled with an AIGC-oriented data degradation pipeline that effectively preserves the generative capability of the base model, enabling enhanced high-resolution detail when cascaded after mainstream low-resolution generative models; (2) a causal streaming latent upsampler paired with a high-resolution decoder, which enhances spatiotemporal coherence while enabling efficient latent spatial scaling and precise high-resolution decoding with negligible computational overhead; and (3) a cascade high-resolution streaming video generation optimization scheme that first performs hybrid-reward-enhanced sparse causalization and single-step distillation of the super-resolution model, then introduces cascaded streaming self-forcing preference optimization with dynamic cache management, jointly enhancing overall coherence, improving quality, and enabling real-time high-resolution streaming video generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Ultra Flash reliably produces ultra-high-resolution streaming video while maintaining state-of-the-art visual quality and superior efficiency.
