Can you upload the model to Google Drive so I can take a look at it? Also feel free to take a video and upload it to YouTube and share that. ---

After reviewing the model, I noticed that your particle system is integrated into the animation. I suggest separating the particles and the sleigh into two separate models, which are loaded and animated simultaneously. The issue could stem from various factors, but given that the file size is approximately 64MB due to the animations, it is likely related to device memory. Additionally, it is possible that the particles are altering the model’s origin, causing it to move out of the camera’s culling area. I would heavily consider replacing the baked in snow particles with [three.js particles.](https://threejs-journey.com/lessons/particles#) ---

Try changing [this property on your camera](https://threejs.org/docs/index.html#api/en/cameras/PerspectiveCamera.far) (camera.far) to a value much larger, like 15000. ---

@Samuel_Castillo you may also want to make sure your 3D model isn’t beign culled by camera. I would reference this thread and verify > [@Part of 3D model hides in 8thWall](https://forum.8thwall.com/t/part-of-3d-model-hides-in-8thwall/772): > > When I test my 3d model in [https://gltf-viewer.donmccurdy.com/](https://gltf-viewer.donmccurdy.com/) I find no issues but within 8thwall (aframe) the part of the 3d model seems to hide or disappear abruptly. Can anyone tell me the cause of it? ---

ty, this fixed it. I created a no-cull.js, edited the app.js and added no-cull to my entity in body.html ---
