Description
Hi,
A user is having problemas with WebTundraGFX. Here it is her report:
"We are using the WebTundraGFX example to load a 3D static model.
Everything works fine, we can use the mouse controls to zoom, rotate and
move the character.
We can even change, by code the lights of the 3D environment and camera
position.
However the character is not well iluminated. There are some parts that
appear dark black.
We've tested it with red, blue and white lights (see attached images) an it
always apper some dark areas.
Any suggestions on how to solve it? Why is this caused?"
Thanks in advance.
Kr, Xavi Carol.

closed again as there's been no response and in the previous version of the OPs code the rendering did work correctly as the screenshot shows.
I also tested locally from your zip in dropbox and the model shows correctly.
Also, tested that enableSkinning() for it and it didn't disappear – perhaps your skinning is ok afterall (assuming the model is skinned).
On what system are you having the problems? Does it show the examples fine?
I'm on a Late 2013 Macbook Pro with Intel HD4000 with a bit old Chrome (Version 44.0.2403.125 (64-bit)).
screenshot of how the model renders correctly on your test page.
ah so it shows correctly when it's static, but you get problems only when enable skinning.
i verified now that your live html & the screenshot match.
so that of course implies that the problem is with the skinning. your rig might not be suitable. Blender supports many rigging tools that are not supported by game engines. you can see the deer skeleton & skinning and the blends of the other animals we provide in https://github.com/realXtend/chesapeakebay/tree/master/objects/ for examples of what kind of rigs work.
Hi - looks like a problem with your model / geometry I think. And a generic three.js usage problem.
Can you share the model file? Or even put up a live demo that demonstrates the problem?
Is it exported from a modeling application? You could check about normals there. Also the version of the exporter would be good to know.
Recalculating the normals may help too.
Also, what code are you using to load? You refer to WebTundraGFX – if it's with that code the loading there is for the animated & normal + light mapped texturing iirc. If that's the case, you could test what happens with your model & the webtundra examples (i mean WebTundra repo, not the WebTundraGFX one), or – depending on the export you are using – with a suitable version of plain three.js and one of the loading examples there to match your file format / export.
ah now i think i see what you mean, with the mouth and the colour on the top of the head.
did you try applying the uv unwrap modifier or doing the texturing otherwise for that area, given that seems to be the problem?
i think is also a good idea to test with latest versions of three.js and the blender exporter. do you already know how to do that?
