Hello, Im new to 3D Scanning, Recently got my Otter, and find it very nice to scan, but im trying to do a Merge of the owl model, the merge works great, but after merging i get the point cloud model, and the one click process button is disabled, that means i cannot convert my point cloud to mesh, resulting in being unable to download the model as an OBJ.
Only PLY and ASC are available to download, I can unmerge the model without issues, I have made sure the resolution is the same in both scans. Can someone explain what could be wrong? i have calibrated the scanner, the scans look fine, i have reinstalled the software, firmware up to date, i have seen videos of people merging whole body scan with face scan without any problems and being able to process the merged model and download as OBJ.
Hello,after Merge ,Hit “Mesh setting”,and hit “color mapping”,"export"obj

Good day Kendeney, thank you very much!! this worked, somehow i did not knew i had to click the Mesh Setting in order to process the Merged model, when i clicked the Mesh Setting it always opened up and showed the settings details, somehow i never clicked it properly to process.
So for anyone having same issue, steps are as follow:
- Scan the 2 parts of the model you would like to later merge
- click on the Optimization Setting button, select the resolution then click batch processing
- Merge the 2 models together, after completion only available button will be Mesh Setting, you wont be able to export .obj after this step only.
- After merge click on the Mesh Setting and wait for it to process
- Then click on Color Mapping button and wait for it to finish.
- Now the model can be exported as .OBJ
