possible bug

skinned mesh renderer disappears when out of frustum and don’t come back.

I recorded a video to show it, is it a bug or is there some settings I should check?

Thanks in advance

Unity version is 5.4.0f3

I haven’t tried with other versions, I will copy the project and try with 5.3.x and update this thread if it works.

it does the same on 5.3.5f1

Edit : I workaround by creating a new camera, putting all objects which has a skinned mesh renderer to a new layer, set the new camera to only display this layer and set it’s depth to -1 so it’s not seen. Now the object doesn’t disappear because it’s always seen by a camera.

I was able to test and implement my animation and ai behaviour on the skinned mesh character with this workaround. But it’s not acceptable for the performance of the game.

Edit: Found the problem, there was a rigidbody left from the created ragdoll, it was causing the model to disappear somehow.
