KiCAD 6.99 3D model weirdness

Can anyone understand why those to models get display so differently? The wrl models calls exactly the same models.

No it does not.
The bottom resistor fits in the holes, while the top resistor is too short to reach the holes.

Both resistor use the same resistor body. Simply by changing the color ring order changes the body.

Hi @firewalker, I’m the creator of that repository :wink:

I checked your zip and the RESAD780W55L630D240B.wrl is different from the original file.

I suppose this is a 3D cache issue: you have to clean / update your 3D cache. I dont know if there is such feature at moment on KiCad. You may want to find where KiCad saves your local data (it depends on OS you are using) and clean it or you just can change the file something and save it again, it should update the 3D cached files.

EDIT: KiCad Preferences->Common/Session “3D cache file duration” may help you.

Thanks you for your answer. I had to delete everything in ~/.cache/kicad/6.99/3d/
