I’m trying to display the skeletons of the model using `SkeletonViewer`, but I’m unable to view it. The model’s path is [here](https://storage1.camweara.com/Teststore/clothes/iron_man.glb). The same model displays the skeleton correctly in the Sandbox viewer, but it doesn’t work in the Playground or other places.

Hello,

There might me an issue with the way you use it (probably in your option)  
Going minimalist on my side works : [Playground](https://playground.babylonjs.com/#I0R83L#1)

Also, I set mesh as `newMeshes[1]` (and not `newMeshes[0]` which was the root, with no `mesh.skeleton` defined)
