Broken default models when previewing custom skins

[tillinghast]

when previewing skins that use custom human arthas texture (such as this, this and this), "arthas_portrait.mdx" and "arthaswithsword_portrait.mdx" appear broken and lacking camera
"jaina_portrait.mdx" is broken in the same way, geometry all over the place and no camera
could it be that it's pulling some broken model from the models repository instead of default one?

broken "herodemonhunter.mdx", it just won't load at all, but _portrait works
same with "illidanevil.mdx", it freezes on a frame from a model you were viewing previously but loads list of available animations
same with "lavaspawnmissile.mdx", "lordofflamemissile.mdx", "infernal.mdx", "infernalbirth.mdx"

Can you confirm that this works well in the beta viewer, if your browser supports it. (I just enabled it for textures today).

betaviewer doesn't show anything for me at all, whether it's in skins or models section, "navigator.gpu.requestAdapter returned null."

Try upgrading your browser to the latest version.

You must use a WebGPU capable browser. Chrome, FireFox, Safari and Edge all support WebGPU in its latest version.

i'm on latest version of brave
i found a "Force Enable WebGPU interop" in brave://flags and turned it on, no use

turned on both "Unsafe WebGPU Support" and "WebGPU Developer Features" and it "works": all 4 cores at 90%, i'll stick to old viewer

all cores at 90%? Sounds like it has no hardware acceleration and it's using lavapipe or some software rasterizer. If you do brave://gpu it will show you if WebGPU has hardware acceleration.

In general, it may better that you just give a shot to Chrome instead.

I tried clicking on the "Switch to beta viewer" button and am also seeing navigator.gpu.requestAdapter returned null..

In general, it may better that you just give a shot to Chrome instead.

I don't want to do that because Chrome is against adblockers, and without adblockers Hive becomes a virus distribution platform such as through showing fake DOWNLOAD buttons on the Tools download pages. I can't risk malware being on my PC.
