Gaussian Splat

[jo-ke]

has anyone experiance with this APP?

looks very handy in some cases.

I installed it but when I try to import a *.ply file (scanned with scaniverse) SU crashes.

Any Idea?

Had similar issues with Scaniverse exports. The PLY files often come out huge with vertex colors that SU chokes on. Try opening it in MeshLab or CloudCompare first, decimate the mesh a bit and re-export as a cleaner PLY or OBJ. That fixed the crashing for me. Which SU version are you running?

[jo-ke]

Thank you. I was trying Meshlab but I don't know how to use it, too many options....

I am using SU2026pro newest Version

I tried the plug in at another machine but the behaviour isn‘t successfull eather.

Su doesn‘t crash but th Import is empty

I tried that one to reduce the mesh and it doubbled it 8-)

and system crashes as well

I didn't do anything to the file other than put it through the link Rich provided and the file imported properly for me, so great tip! Thank you.

@Mike-Amos

I can scan an object and this app makes it possible to import it to sketchup

@jo-ke

Thanks mate, pardon my ignorance.

Just downloaded the scan, what is the process to import to Sketchup please?
