Hi friend
I made a simple Ply file in Blender, drawing a face and them extrude him. If I view the file in MeshLab it is completed and correct, but if I view the same file in CC, some face are lost.
Why?
I attach some screen and Ply file

It seems Blender created quads (faces with 4 vertices). But CC supports only triangles (3 vertices).

Ok, but the human figures have more than 3 vertices, 10, 15 and more.
So, CC do not accept only faces with 4 vertices?

The human faces are actually composed of triangles (you can see this by enabling the 'wireframe' option of the mesh). CC really only accepts triangles.
