Getting the following error while trying to render a STL file in AR. I tried rendering a sample STL from [https://models.babylonjs.com/Channel9/Channel9.stl](https://models.babylonjs.com/Channel9/Channel9.stl) . It worked , but not mine [https://res.cloudinary.com/doblnhena/raw/upload/v1678713567/fyp/just%20tumor/t\_t1\_f0ova3.stl](https://res.cloudinary.com/doblnhena/raw/upload/v1678713567/fyp/just%20tumor/t_t1_f0ova3.stl)  
But this stl file is rendering in normal online STL viewers.

The stl file seems corrupted, as the error mentions ☹ can you open it in other viewers ?

I tried opening in this [https://www.viewstl.com/](https://www.viewstl.com/) and it worked and also worked in meshlab
