Black/grey color but no model shown

Hello,

i installed the card via hacs.

i did everything like you showed on youtube but for me the card only shows a grey color sometimes black.

i made the model in sweet home 3d and exported it with the plugin.

i tred it on several browsers and the mobile app

i reduced the yaml code to this but still the same:

type: custom:floor3d-card
path: /local/floorplan/
objfile: home.obj
mtlfile: home.mtl`

The size of the model can be compressed using the glb format (it requires some tweaking, I will do a tutorial about that) on the other hand the glb will make the card faster to load but if it is too heavy, the card will be hard to render and animate. Some furniture are so detailed that have thousands of vertices; these objects make the rendering very intense for cpu and gpu. You need to strike a balance between esthetic and performance. A model of 100mb can be handled reasonably well by average cpus, but if you have detailed furniture even a simple light (and the shadows) may require thousand of computations to be rendered.

ah hi sorry forgot about that.

like i said above it helped a lot reducing the furniture models down in size and after shrinking the floor model to below 100mb helped a lot, but it was still taking about 40-60 seconds to load.

with your help the model was converted to the glb format which now loads in 2-3 seconds on my notebook and maybe 8 seconds on my mobile phone.

so as you said via mail you will make a tutorial about how to convert the obj model to glb in the future, so im happy right now 😉

thanks again for all your help and this nice project
