Material does not display properly when loading json model in Three.js r69

Question

Exporting model from Blender in json format using Three.js plugin. Loading it using JSONLoader, standard things with:

  var loader = new THREE.JSONLoader();
  loader.load(path, function (geometry, materials) {
  materials.forEach(function (material) {
       material.skinning = true;
  });
  var material = new THREE.MeshFaceMaterial(materials);
  var mesh = new THREE.SkinnedMesh(geometry, material);

now the problem manifests itself in model not being displayed at all. If i change the material:

  var loader = new THREE.JSONLoader();
  loader.load(path, function (geometry, materials) {
  materials.forEach(function (material) {
       material.skinning = true;
  });
  var material = new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial();
  var mesh = new THREE.SkinnedMesh(geometry, material);

things work, and mesh is displayed as intended.

here's the contents of JSON file with uvs,vertices, faces and normals omitted:

{

    "metadata": {
        "formatVersion" : 3.1,
        "generatedBy"   : "Blender 2.7 Exporter",

}

any ideas would be much appreciated.

Turns out the problem is in setting

material.skinning = true;

removing this line model is properly displayed. This looks like a bug.

for anyone who runs into the same problem, there are 2 simple ways to solve it: - use different code for loading skinned/static assets - use a piece of code which generates different materials and mesh types based on what's loaded.

for second, here's a snippet i use:

        assetManager.registerLoader("three.js", function (path, callback) {
            var loader = new THREE.JSONLoader();
            loader.load(path, function (geometry, materials) {
                //is it skinned?
                var isSkinned = geometry.skinIndices !== void 0 && geometry.skinIndices.length > 0;
                if (isSkinned) {
                    materials.forEach(function (material) {
                        material.skinning = true;
                    });
                }
                var faceMaterial = new THREE.MeshFaceMaterial(materials);
                var asset = {
                    material: faceMaterial,
                    geometry: geometry,
                    create: function () {
                        var mesh;
                        if (isSkinned) {
                            mesh = new THREE.SkinnedMesh(geometry, faceMaterial);
                        } else {
                            mesh = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, faceMaterial);
                        }
                        mesh.castShadow = true;
                        mesh.receiveShadow = false;
                        //
                        return mesh;
                    }
                };
                callback(asset);
            });
        });
