Play Mode: animated models not visible

Hi,

My goal is to do a “sculptures coming alive” AR project. I made an animated character on blender and pulled in the VPS location mesh so both are in the scene. But then when I go into play mode not even the character model is visible, just the VPS mesh.

Would appreciate any pointers,

Thanks

Hi, welcome to the forums!

Did you click the “Found” button? The VPS simulator isn’t great at localizing to the location, it’s better to use the event buttons on the bottom of the simulator panel.

Thanks for the reply and the video. I tried hitting “Found“ on the events panel on play mode but nothing happened - either on “location” or “mesh“.

I noticed on your tutorial both location and mesh event statuses are viewable at the same time (18:30) but for me it’s one or the other and mesh appears to be stuck on scanning. Please find screenshots attached. Any clue what might be going on here?

Many thanks,

Amy

The UI has a changed a bit to separate out the Mesh and Location events. It should be working the same when you Find or Lose the “Mesh” though.

Can you land your changes and share the project with the support workspace so I can take a look?

Done, thank you! The project is called “älskarinnorna“

I’ve taken a look at your project and it looks to be configured correctly. We managed to fix it by deleting the old location and re-adding it to the project under a New Space. The changes are landed if you want to take a look.

Great, then in that case it seems it may be a problem with my system or internet connection being too slow, because for me it is still the same as in the screenshots above- I can try click on “found” but it doesn’t select it for either mesh or location. I will try with a different computer and internet connection and get back to you on it.

I would definitely look into optimizing your models. Thankfully there’s automated tools to help. Check out our documentation here:
