Maybe…..as I would need to see more of you settings to validate what I am going to suggest…..

Since you are using Blender 4.2…you may have watched videos on how to create glass or transparent materials in Blender 4.2 on youtube or other sources where these people show various settings for Blender 4.2 using EEVEE “next” to render transparency.

After reviewing many of these myself I am pretty sure none of them will work as a method for transparency in Verge3D. I would strongly suggest following the examples and methods shown here (https://www.soft8soft.com/docs/manual/en/blender/Transparency.html) and in the transparency demo.

If you want full control over transparency…you have to turn the Verge3D Blend Mode setting to alpha clip, hash or blend….Auto…is okay if the results you are getting are ok, just keep in mind it (verge3d) may decide at a later date your object should be opaque and you didn’t specify so it may change it based on its own decision making since you aren’t making a choice.

With EEVEE next, you can get quality much closer to Cycles but man (if not all) these features do not translate to Verge3D.

Your material nodes are fine..nothing special there and will work in V3D. You will need to go back through your Material Settings and turn off things specific to EEVEE next. Simple way…it if didn’t exist in EEVEE from Blender 4.1. dont turn it on.

Another option is to create the material in Blender 4.1…get it to look the way you want in V3D and then append that material/object into Blender 4.2 and you will get what you are expecting as long as you dont mess with settings that are not compatible with V3D.

Just wanting to make sure I understand what you are trying to replicate.
In your original images you have a texture that is oddly blocking the outlines in Blender and then showing them in Verge3d.

Are you wanting the outline colors to disappear when they are inside an object?
If so what does your shader node look like to accomplish this?

Based on what you are stating I have to make some guesses and you will have to let me know if any of this makes any sense or not.

If you create a V3D project “MyTestProject”. V3D will create a project folder called MyTestProject and within it is a blend file called “MyTestProject.blend”.

If you run the HTML file MyTestProject.html by using the HTML button in the App Manger all works.

If you open the MyTestProject.blend file in Blender you get the default V3D cube. If you delete this and replace it with a Blender default cube….then you export the file as a Verge3D GLTF…not a GLB or any other GLTF type and you ensure the name of the GLTF is MyTestProject.gltf. This should work with no issues.

Key things…
– make sure the Verge3D plugin/addon is enabled in blender preferences
– make sure to export as “Verge3d GLTF” not any other
– make sure your GLTF file name is “MyTestProject.gltf”
– make sure you are saving your GLTF to the App Manager application folder.

If Blender…this will work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJTEJKQ0lYw

It depends.. each method is based on your needs and has it advantages and disadvantages based on your specific needs. All three hash, clip and blend all have purposes and use cases. You shader setup also has a great impact to how they perform .

You are in the “Init Tab” change over to the “main” tab or any other tab in the Application Manager then look in the Systems puzzles and you will find it. Since you cant place the Print Performance puzzle in the “Init” tabl the puzzle is not displayed.

Hi there,
We have done a few team based V3D projects and have tried a number of approaches but it always seems to come down to the skill sets of the individual teams members and the project requirements.

We normally break our teams into Blender Artists, V3D dev, HTML/CSS dev, JS dev, lead creative and a producer. This seems to work out for most projects but when you have a heavy V3D project and tight timelines…then we need multiple V3D devs and multiple Blender artists…it can get complicated fast.

What we do is our 3D assets are created as linked assets to larger Blender project file. This master file, is then published at regular intervals so V3D devs can continue their work.

We have a V3d/JS developer who is responsible to merge V3D tabs, and JS into a master V3D project. This master V3D project is updated on a schedule…and the Creative Director and Producer review the project and provide feedback to the teams.

This requires lots of communication and is really a pain in the ass.

We try to segment parts of projects out so that one person is working on one object/sequence while another person is working on something unrelated. But sometimes the two shall cross.

For situations where there budget is lean and the time is still tight…we run three overlapping shifts where each team member has both Blender/V3D experience. At shift overlap time, the prior dev explains where the project is what is being worked on and the new shift person can take over from that point. NOTE: This only works if people on the team work well together and can communicate effectively otherwise this is not a great solution.

These solutions also rely on having a good backup repository that can be accessed across multiple platforms, devices and the globe.

Not an easy solution but look forward to hearing how others are doing it.
