Textured GLTF

Video Lecture

Textured GLTF

Description

In this video I demonstrate adding a texture to the glTF model and modifying its UV coordinates. By default, the texture is embedded into the model when you export it from blender. This makes it easier to create and use textured models versus when doing it using OBJ and MTL.

Resources

I demonstrate how to build this model using blender.

Or you can direct download monkey_textured.glb instead and save into ./dist/client/models.
