How to build Model Variants

[adrianposteuca]

Hello guys,

I saw that is possible to use model variants. I am trying to build this option but I do not know where to start.
I have the 3d model with some textures but how can I embed new variants, and then export the new model?

Thank you
Adrian

Hi @adrianposteuca, have you looked at our variants example? I recommend playing around with that in glitch.

Our editor has this functionality. Go the materials tab and create a variant and upload new textures for it, then download the scene.

Hi, I'm trying to add a couple of materials to the model but the editor doesn't export the model after adding variants to it. The console logs:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'material')

Can you file an issue with specific repro instructions? This sounds like a bug.
