I appreciate the suggestion, but I worry that this would just create a big review burden without meaningfully improving the code quality. I think Godhart's law applies here. The goal...

I don't personally really like a solution this complex but perhaps there is no better solution for this. Pinging @Moguri for thoughts.

I'm on the fence. It feels fragile and possibly a maintenance time sink.

Please add: are you using panda3d-gltf (and if so, which version) or the very low-quality built-in Assimp-based glTF loader?

It's in the manual: https://docs.panda3d.org/1.10/python/pipeline/gltf-files

Is gl-immutable-texture-storage set to true in Config.prc?

This is probably a regression in Panda3D, see panda3d/panda3d#1602

That means the shader failed to load - what are the other error messages?

For the record, you can tell Panda's model-cache to cache textures as .txo automatically using `model-cache-textures true`. Also, when converting models using `egg2bam`, you can use the `-txo` flag to...

I don't see documentation on which files need to be checked into source control either, other than for the config file.
