## About

The reference muzzle flash. Six blades of alternating length radiate from the muzzle and lean forward, a lathed cone runs down the bore axis, a flattened bead marks the mouth and a torus marks the barrel ring. Bounding size 0.66 by 0.68 by 0.39 m, metres, +Y up, +Z forward. Origin: free. The origin is the muzzle mouth, so a developer places this mesh by the point the effect emits from rather than by a base. The geometry surrounds it, reaching 0.38 m below and 0.30 m above the origin. Opaque solid geometry throughout: this pack uses no alpha blending and no transmission, so the silhouette and the emissive material carry the read. Static mesh with no animation clip, no skinned rig, no collision and no navigation data.

## Use with three.js

```js
import { GLTFLoader } from 'three/addons/loaders/GLTFLoader.js'

const loader = new GLTFLoader()
loader.load('https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/8436/v1/model.glb', (gltf) => {
  scene.add(gltf.scene)
})
```

## React Three Fiber

```jsx
import { useGLTF } from '@react-three/drei'

export function MuzzleStarFlashMediumVFXMeshLibrary(props) {
  const { scene } = useGLTF('https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/8436/v1/model.glb')
  return <primitive object={scene} {...props} />
}
useGLTF.preload('https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/8436/v1/model.glb')
```

```

## Blender

```python
# Blender 4.x: File > Import > glTF 2.0, or from the Python console after downloading the file.
import bpy
bpy.ops.import_scene.gltf(filepath='model.glb')  # from https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/8436/v1/model.glb
# Metres and +Y up are converted to Blender's Z-up scene automatically.
```

## Godot

```gdscript
# Godot 4: copy model.glb into res://models/ and the editor imports it as a scene.
var packed := load("res://models/model.glb") as PackedScene
var model := packed.instantiate()
add_child(model)
```

## Unity

```csharp
// Unity: import model.glb with glTFast (Package Manager: com.unity.cloud.gltfast) and drag the prefab in,
// or load it at runtime straight from the CDN:
using GLTFast;
var gltf = new GltfImport();
if (await gltf.Load("https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/8436/v1/model.glb")) await gltf.InstantiateMainSceneAsync(transform);
```
