Made a vanilla Three.js example for progressively loading @glTF assets with our tiny 20 KB library. Multiple Texture LODs are coming soon! Link in 🧵

Demo: Library:

Added a #r3f react three fiber example All examples are included in the package

Oh and of course here's also the same demo for @modelviewer

@threejs @GLTF So happy to see Needle strive and get its deserved attention since the smart move of not only the pivot on the marketing side, showcasing it as ‘the de facto’ best way of creating powerful and beautiful experiences 1/2

@threejs @GLTF Nice to have made it a package. Does it handle arbitrary gltf or the preprocesding of the geometry and texture 2d/3d tiling has to be done by needle?

@threejs @GLTF Yes it has to be preprocessed right now to produce the variants - but technically it can load arbitrary files if they contain the NEEDLE_progressive extensions

@threejs @GLTF I NEED this Does this work with gltf only or glb Also it doesn’t look like there’s any fps stutter on progressive load, is there?

@threejs @GLTF It works with glTF, GLB and VRMs

@threejs @GLTF 😯

@threejs @GLTF What you mean by "progressively"?
