Hi all, How does one remove all bones in a skeleton without glitching the attached meshes? Original [image] Then after skeleton.bones.length = [] [image] Here’s a PG https://playground.babylonjs.com/#SYQW69#997 @Deltakosh @Evgeni_Popov

Indeed that seemed to have done the trick https://playground.babylonjs.com/#SYQW69#1006 const verts = mesh.getPositionData(true, true) mesh.setVerticesData('position', verts) mesh.skeleton = null mesh.createNormals() @Deltakosh thanks so much again!!

This is expected A skeleton cannot have 0 bone. It requires at least one

Ok, what’s the best way to rid a mesh of its skeleton? I’ve tried doing mesh.skeleton = null but that runs into all sorts of issues

mesh.skeleton = null is the way to go :slight_smile:

Ok, but then how do I handle this case? :slight_smile: Babylon.js Playground Babylon.js playground is a live editor for Babylon.js WebGL 3D scenes Before: [image] After mesh.skeleton = null [image] Becomes a very small dot due to how the skeleton was sca…

I know there is the mesh.computeBonesUsingShaders = false hack but was wondering if there’s a better way

Well this is not a hack :slight_smile: you want to get rid of the skeleton after forcing it to bake its value into the mesh Why don’t you like the solution I gave you?

probably due to a lack of knowledge about computeBonesUsingShaders on my side I guess :sweat_smile: So basically, if anytime a skeleton is removed, we have to always use mesh.computeBonesUsingShaders = false?

Yes, if you want to force the CPU to compute the transformation and apply them to your mesh By default bones are evaluated at the GPU level which means that the CPU has no idea how the final mesh will look like. In your case (as I assume you want to save the mesh with the transformation applied), y…

yea gotcha, my question is how do I effectively save it so that it doesn’t affect other things :smiley: let’s say I remove the skeleton using mesh.skeleton = null, then use mesh.computeBonesUsingShaders = false (since = true will cause the mesh in this example to scale very small), how do I save th…

[image] mrlooi: I remove the skeleton using mesh.skeleton = null, then use mesh.computeBonesUsingShaders = false There is a misunderstanding here. If skeleton is null then computeBonesUsingSHaders has no impact as there is no skeleton. That property is simply asking the system to compute the …

I actually found a related bug with computeBonesUsingShaders in this thread, linking it here in case
