Hi! I want to convert ply to ascii with color information so i did that convert but color didn't load in touchdesigner. can i convert ply to ascii with color?
Can you open your ASCII file with a text editor and check if 3 columns with R, G and B are present? (you can ask CC to write the headers to the ASCII file to make that clearer).
Normally, per-vertex RGB colors should always been saved when exporting to an ASCII file. I guess that when you load the entity from the PLY file, you can see it colored in CloudCompare? In this case, do the colors come from a texture or from per-vertex colors? (you can guess that in the PLY loading dialog, or check that you have an 'RGB' color source in the entity properties).
