Hi everyone, Not sure if I should post here or in the general question so please excuse me if you think this is not the right section. I’m working on an architectural visualization tool and exporting my model from 3dsmax to gltf with the Babylon exporter. I’d like to use tags so I can easily find …

@christopheC also do you have a sample max scene and/or generated glTF?

[image] kcoley: glTF loader handles extras data as tags No, the loader does not load extras without user code. There is not a 1-to-1 mapping between the glTF hierarchy and Babylon, so this is up to the user to handle it in a loader extension. I can show how this is done in a playground if I c…

Hi everyone, Thanks for your quick reply! @kcoley yes I’m importing my gltf into babylon.js and trying to filter on tags. I also thought that it could be a tag support issue from gltf vs babylon files but I also tried to export as babylon file format and didn’t have more luck. @bghgary I was tryi…

[image] christopheC: I think it’s a problem with the server I’m using to host my file… I need to look more into that. You can put the file on GitHub somewhere and then use the raw url to access it.

[image] christopheC: I also tried to export as babylon file format and didn’t have more luck. @christopheC looks like the exporter is exporting the tags as “tag” instead of “tags” in the babylon file, which is a bug. I’ll work on a fix for that.

@christopheC I just made a fix for 3ds Max on changing “tag” to “tags”.

Thanks @kcoley that was fast :slight_smile: I just gave it a try and it works fine on Babylon export. Still doesn’t work on gltf/glb files but I’m guessing @bghgary might be able to help with that soon I also managed to make a scene work in the playground using dropbox! https://www.babylonjs-playg…

Perfect it works! Thanks everyone I really appreciate your quick help! Chris

Hi everyone, digging up an old topic. I’m still using tags with gltf but it does seem like tags either don’t export or at not recognized in Babylon if the object has a multi material with multiple Ids in 3dsmax assigned to it. Is that the correct behavior? Thanks! Chris
