In 3D Studio Max 2017, I've imported a truck as a point cloud.
Is there a way to turn the point cloud into a solid mesh?
Is there a conversion method without having to draw every face, perhaps using a plugin?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Point Cloud to Mesh

Hello @neoxcorex and welcome to the community!
3ds Max (or Maya afaik) don't have native ways to convert the point cloud data into meshes. Autodesk makes a program called Recap 360 that has a Scan-to-Mesh service, or there are free apps online that can do it as well. If it's something you think Max needs, please submit it to Feature Request and other users can vote on the issue. Please let me know if you have any questions.
