CloudCompare forum

Hello
I am new here, so I appologize in advance for some mistakes:) I have problem, I want to process some point clouds, but they are about 37mln of points. And all the time when I try to save it, CC is giving me such message: "An error occured, while saving "C/Users/........./wdp.ply": not enough memory.". While according to this: http://www.danielgm.net/cc/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=14 it will work with 128 M pointcloud, I am right? What I am doing wrong?

Oups, looking at the code I realize that the returned error code is wrong (see PlyFilter.cpp, line 86).

So you are right, the error has nothing to do with a memory issue ;). In fact the true error is that the rPly library has failed to create the file. So you should check the path (you can try to save the file with a very simple path first, not too long and without 'funny' characters). And check also the access rights.

Thank you Daniel! It worked, saving it with shorter and easier path have worked!
