Clone doesn't work properly with some GLTF models

Questions

Hello there,

I’m trying to clone a model, and change its position and scale just after

But with some models it doen’t work, and with others it works

The problem is when i add my clone with changed position or scale in the scene, they just remain at their normal position/scale, my modification is not taken into account

Example :

const gltfloader = new GLTFLoader.GLTFLoader();
gltfloader.load("./models/player/amongus/scene.gltf", function(gltf) {
const model = gltf.scene;

const clone = model.clone();

clone.position.set(55, 5, -40.87);
clone.scale.set(1, 1, 1);

scene.add(clone);

});

With the model found here : Among Us character - Download Free 3D model by Yury Misiyuk (@Tim0) [0a7369a] - Sketchfab, it doesn’t work, but with this one it works Harry Potter - Download Free 3D model by Matthew Tew (@matt1279797) [9e546d0] - Sketchfab

Someone has experienced the same thing, and know whats going on ?

Thank you

Regards,

FP

Have you tried SkeletonUtils.clone? Normal clone does not work with models with skeletons.

Okay, so it definitively fixed the issue

For the one who’s wondering, you juste have to use the script like this

import * as SkeletonUtils from ‘three/addons/utils/SkeletonUtils.js’;

let clone = SkeletonUtils.clone(model)

Thank you
