Not able to click on SkinnedMesh

[sifatdipta]

I am trying to get onClick event from skinnedMesh object imported through gltfjsx but I cant seem to get any click event out of it. I tried importing mesh object but they work perfectly. I can actually turn the skinnedmesh into mesh and it would register clicks. But I need to be able to move the character's skeleton.

The solutions given here doesn't work for me:

The only solution I can see working is #2 but I am not sure how to implement it.

Thanks!

do you have a sandbox? that would be the easiest. here's an example with a skinnedmesh with events: https://codesandbox.io/s/gltf-animations-pecl6?file=/src/Model.js the only thing that comes to mind is that that object you want events on has to have geometry for the raycaster to pierce.

Heya, thank you very much for your response. I just put up this sandbox for you https://codesandbox.io/s/purple-brook-tv4pm?file=/src/models/YbotEdit.js!

I have a lot of child skinnedMesh because I need to be able to click each of them separately.

Thank you!

must be the model or threejs, im sure you'll find similar issues in threes issue tracker or threejs-stackoverflow. that's where i'd look. "skinnedmesh raycasting does not work" skinnedmesh raycasting was only recently added mrdoob/three.js#19178 maybe they still have bugs but this is for certain not caused by r3f
