Hi, I’m trying to re-create something like campus Albano where you click an object and a text box appears with further information. I’ve seen https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#ZI9ak7#1433 example but I don’t want the alert pop up with the babylon address. Is there a way to re-create the campus …

The thing is that if it is all instances of a mesh would be highlighted when you highlight this mesh. Yo may need additional trick, basically the same as with highlight layer (substitute an instance with a clone).

You can use transform node name as identifier for instance.

I need to look into this a bit more I think. Trying to get it to work for https://playground.babylonjs.com/#9Z476P#9 this basic model. I have 500 buildings and 50 or so are all duplicate buildings with the same mesh so there’s a lot of duplicates. If this would work that would be perfect. I’m not 10…

[image] labris: use transform node name as identifier for instance I think I’ll make a simple example later today.

I like the idea, I’ve tried to implement some of the code here but it’s not working (due to my lack of knowledge/coding skills ha). https://playground.babylonjs.com/#9Z476P#10 I definitely need some performance improvement on my main model as it’s running around 4-6 fps atm.

Do you really need to show all 500 buildings at once?

The scene isn’t too big. I had thought about incremental loading with a closer camera but in the end I decided that it would be better if all the buildings where in view.

To make things more complicated I have some objects with one material and some with two. [snipping]
