loader for threejs? #218

A bit sad to see very little action on this package, I think it's still beyond what anybody else does in this space..

Personally, I've been spending a lot time working in threejs lately and I've been really impressed. I really like the webXR ability, I've made some quite impressive examples here with that.

One thought I had would be that a loader that creates a vts mesh in threejs would be amazing. Imagine being able to explore your detailed models in your browser as well as in VR? There are some people that have developed examples to import 3D tiles, and I even saw one that accepts cesiumJS, but I still prefer VTS by far.

Anyone keen to explore or see how difficult it would be to develop a means to create a mesh streaming vts data in threejs? I'd be willing to spend a bit of time on this, but don't think I have quite the right level of skill...

see this repo for examples for 3d tiles loader for threejs, and there are alternative loader repos right at the bottom of that page. itowns is coming close to what vts does with WMTS and TMS, but still no where near.

@vaclavblazek looks like you might be the only person still active on the melown packages- any thoughts? How hard would this be?
