I am new to Unreal Engine. Trying to import a point cloud with the LIDAR point cloud plugin. It does appear, but when I import a .e57 file the colors of the points are messed up for some reason. When I try to import a .pts file (same point cloud), the colors are fine. I’ve successfully imported the .e57 file in many applications without any issue, so I can’t imagine that there is an issue with the file itself. Here is what the colors look like when importing the .pts file (what they should be):
I have the same problem. Unreal Engine 5.1 with Lidar point cloud plugin turned on. It happens on blank template, without any changes to the default settings.
It looks like Unreal simply misteakes red value for blue one, but I am not a programist so I can not confirm that assumption.
However, in my case importing as pts doesn’t work. it only changes the colours
converting it to .las worked in UE5.2, but its crashing again and again.
Does anyone know what is the maz size of the file we can work with?
i need to import multiple pcd.
I’ve just come across this problem, and this looks to be the solution but I’m not having success. I created the material and wired the nodes per your picture but it’s just giving a flat brown color. Did you have any other settings you needed to change?
Thanks for your reply (though I saw it after I finally figured this out with some help from chatGPT).
I ended up modifying the point cloud material which I pulled from the plugins folder to look like the below. A side note to noobs like me - to apply the changes, make sure you save the material!
