I am trying to add 3D models with the threebox plugin on a map with globe projection. The question is that I want to show orbital flights describing realistic trajectories with the globe projection. For this the most important thing is to appreciate how the trajectory fits the earth, only possible with that projection.
Although technically possible, the 3D objects and the trajectory are projected on the globe, but with a mercator projection creating confusion. I'm trying to do a lot of tweaking by playing with altitude and scale to simulate that curvature, but it's still not enough.

Is there any plan to support Custom style with globe projection?
Is there any possibility to create a geojson style ('type': 'LineString') with altitude? I know there is an open topic about this with two solutions, but they don't fit the needs I have for that specific projection

We are working on model layer support for globe.

Is there any possibility to create a geojson style ('type': 'LineString') with altitude? I know there is an mapbox/mapbox-maps-ios#360 about this with two solutions, but they don't fit the needs I have for that specific projection

Related LineString and flight path, please help on clarifying the requirements. I've replied to the original request at mapbox/mapbox-maps-ios#360 (comment).

Hi, @astojilj

We are working on model layer support for globe.

That was just great, exactly what I was looking for the 3D models. Yesterday I managed to use the model style following the link. Previously I searched everywhere but couldn't find anything, thanks.

Related LineString and flight path, please help on clarifying the requirements. I've replied to the original request at mapbox/mapbox-maps-ios#360 (comment).

Talking about theLineString, I want to do something like this:

I am trying to follow the link that you shared, but I don't know if it will work for me.
