What is the proper way to dispose a character’s related resources completely without disposing the scene?

Way to dispose all the assets loaded from a file (GLTF) leaving intact the rest of scene

I believe the easiest way which gives the full control is to create an array with the list of imported meshes. When you need to dispose the loaded GLTF just dispose meshes from this list until it will be clear. Mesh.dispose() has the flag disposeMaterialAndTextures to dispose associated materials and textures when true - Mesh | Babylon.js Documentation To dispose animations associated with the mesh one needs to go through the array of mesh.animations - Mesh | Babylon.js Documentation

Please don’t use for-each cycle since it will not work here for objective reasons.

To dispose meshes from an array use while

while(scene.meshes.length) {
const mesh = scene.meshes[0]
mesh.dispose();
}

The same relates to mesh.animations array.
