How do I load an external model in react-three

[aiumasou]

I want to load external models such as obj/mtl , is there any way？In react-three ' module, there are object3D, mesh etc., how to use them to load file in obj format？

You still haave to load an OBJ file using threejs as show here, and then extract the geometry/material. Then pass that mesh/material into a <Mesh> node.

It's not ideal, but splicing threejs nodes into a react-three scene graph would just be a big mess IMHO.

thanks，I did what you said . now the problem is that no mesh show in screen. The mesh's really loaded, but i can't see it. What could be the cause?

I'm not sure, take a look at this old example and see if you are loading models in a similar manner.
