PLY export -
Hi, Currently, when I select the "create gaussian Splats ply file" the exported ply has a mesh and not points and doesn't open in Postshot. I have to manually export the obj of the mesh and convert to points in cloudcompare.
Hi @PLAN8VR, thanks for bringing this to my attention! I am not certain when I will be able to address this, but I’ll make sure to look into it and provide an update as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience and feedback!

Hi, thanks for checking in. I also think that it should export colour points (I had a non-coder rummage around in the operations code), but what points are exported along with the mesh are all white.
Looking forward to the update. Thanks!
There seem to be several problems with importing the .ply files into Postshot. One of which is that Postshot throws a fit when it encounters unfamiliar data such as faces. The exports that are currently being generated by BlenderNeRF contain a lot more data than just vertex positions and color.
Hi @voxelith, thanks for pointing out these details and sharing your observations. At the moment I don’t have plans to address the outstanding .ply issues, as my focus is on other priorities. The code is open for adaptation though, so please feel free to fork or extend the plugin if it helps your workflow :)
