Warewullf,

I've only just seen this thread so you may have solved your problems by now. If not ....

I have written some software which will convert a standard obj file into a point cloud. With a bit of adjusting it could be made to add the header and footer to make it into an asc file. However, I would need to see a few more.asc files together with information about the size of the image you get within the crystal in each case. My Scaler utility (see freestuff) can then adjust it to fit.

Without scaling to fit you are liable to get the image created outside the crystal rather than inside it.

Increasing the point count can be done, but it's much better to start with a high resolution model in the first place.

If you want to send me some files I'm at maz@sandylodge.demon.co.uk

Please include the word 3D in the subject so as to get through my spam filter.

Regards,

Maz
