When develop with BabylonJS, I get this warning and the emulator models doesn't render. here is the warning: BJS - [18:50:33]: Build is already in progress, You can use NodeMaterial.onBuildObservable to determine when the build is completed. and I can't find NodeMaterial of the extension. I hope it fixed soon.
