if this is about the outline, better use [GitHub - pmndrs/postprocessing: A post processing library that provides the means to implement image filter effects for three.js.](https://github.com/pmndrs/postprocessing) instead of jsm/effectcomposer. pp is selective, you can choose the meshes where the effect will apply. this isn’t easily possible in jsm/ec. pp also way faster compared to jsm.
