aframe-gltf-part-component

Version License

A component to extract parts from a GLTF model into their own A-Frame entities. Enables:

  • Having one glTF file contain all models for the application versus loading and parsing multiple glTF files.
  • Extracting individual parts from a glTF scene to manipulate individually and separately.
  • Defining glTF parts as individual A-Frame entities to be able to apply components to (e.g., material, animation, position).
  • Ease of defining your own materials for optimization (e.g., one shared material for everything with vertex colors) versus having the loader create them.

For A-Frame.
