Description
This production model is designed for Augmented Reality playback via Apple’s QuickLook.
It contains both Skeletal Animation on two meshes (elephant and monochord) as well as UsdAudio data.
Shading
The model uses the same texture for diffuseColor and emission. This creates an apperance of being “unlit”, with no actual Unlit shading model currently being available in QuickLook.
Problem: Audio plays faster/slower
Some viewers ignore audio bitrate and instead assume a specific bitrate. The MP3 used here is an 48KHz file; QuickLook always assumes 48KHz, so 44.1KHz files will play incorrectly.
Problem: Only one mesh plays skeletal animation
usdview: The monochord doesn’t play the correct skinned animation.
Known Issue: Bounds calculations
This model may have incorrect extents. Some viewers may calculate new mesh bounds from the actual skinned data / bones, others may use the provided extents data and thus show only a small part by default.
usdview: Extents leading to wrong start view. Note the small displayed box gizmo in the center of the model.
