hello so far love the update and some of my feedbacks like the search system.
don't know if this occurs to all but when im viewing a custom skin, it doesn't apply on the model, and can you put back the option when viewing a Skin which includes all models on the database that uses that texture path? sorry for my bad english
more power to Hive!

Its not displayed poorly but the skin doesnt apply at all on the model.
Its not just this, i mean other skins too with correct skin path

i know this is kinda off-topic, but since you guys are talking about skins, would it be possible to fix or add the texture paths of many of the uploaded textures on the skin section that have a wrong path? i would like to preview them before downloading them but because wrong paths it's impossible.

Just checked on an old Samsung Galaxy S5, and it has no issues with both classic and HD models as far as I can tell (aside from it being a phone and having poor rendering quality in general).

I would need to see errors, which is somewhat problematic to do directly with phones if you are not tech savvy. Essentially it requires to put your phone in debug mode (which requires you to first make it show the hidden developer settings), connect it to your PC with a USB and and use adb (e.g. search for "tiny adb fastboot" for adb if you don't want to download Android's entire SDK), open a tab in your phone Chrome, then in your PC Chrome, if everything worked (as far as I remember there are no more steps, but it's been a while since I've done this), you will be able to open a devtools connection to the phone's Chrome.

A probably easier solution will be for @Ralle to show errors in some graphical way on the page (hidden behind some button or whatever to not spam the page?), and then you can show what errors you get.

Could you try it now.
Still the same stuck in loading (the green line on top of the viewer),
Does the sites model viewer requires an updated chrome in mobile? (Sorry if kinda sound stupid im not really a tech guy)

Ralle, one question, why does the "view in 3D option" shows only a limited list of models to preview the skins? the old page used to have a complete list of all the models that used the same texture path when we used that same option :"(
(Also, in some cases, it only shows the portrait model)

It shows 20 models. The way it's made, it actually downloads all of them. It did so in the past too which is very slow.

A future version would need a more complex search-like system if we want to show more.

I feel like it showcases the texture well enough the way it is now.
