Converting circular structure to JSON

Bugs

hi all,
Today I received this error and I can’t find any related topics on Google. I have a scene with 5 animated characters, when click “export to Babylon scene” I receive this error in the console.

Uncaught TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON
→ starting at object with constructor ‘t’
| property ‘animations’ → object with constructor ‘Array’
| index 0 → object with constructor ‘e’
| …
| index 0 → object with constructor ‘e’

Any ideas, suggestions, how to solve it? Please let me know if you need more details.
Thanks

Hey there, welcome to the forum. :slight_smile: I was able to reproduce this error using this simple playground from the built-in examples, e.g. using the Inspector to export to Babylon or GLB.

CC @bghgary, it seems to stem from this recent PR adding the skinnedMesh metadata: deleting that reference fixes the error below (on line 51).

Ugh, I was afraid of issues like this. I will investigate.

I decided to change the reference into a callback like I was thinking to do originally. It has the least likely chance of breaking something. Clients will have to create their own map. (cc @MackeyK24)
