Importing Quad from Instant Meshes to RC FAILING

When importing a Quad retopo’d mesh from Instant Meshes, I keep getting the error:

“Model contains a face with less than 3 vertices. Please fix the model in an external tool and try to import it again.”

Do I have to retopo everything in Instant Meshes as triangles?

Hi azadbal,

RC will only operate with triangles. But I’ve read here that importing a quad mesh worked for somebody but RC converted it…

Hi Gotz, 

I seem to be getting inconsistent results. Sometimes it imports the quad model and converts it to triangles, and sometimes it throws that error. 

same error importinf obj quad in meshlab, but using FILTER> POLIGONAL…> TURN INTO PURE TRIANG…

Then import in RC > Clean model (for manifold edge) > Unwrap
