Dear morphometricians,

I'm looking for a program which could analyse 3D virtual objects (*.obj,
*.ply etc). I used the IDAV landmark software for single point landmark
and curve placement on *.ply files for the semilandmarks. The only
program which I found that can can analyse 3D semilandmarks is resample.
I've tried using resample in command prompt for Windows 7. I've also
followed the tutorial mentioned below and changed my output files in
landmark from *.dta (NTsys landmark points) to *.pts (Raw landmrk
points) and saved in *.txt format:
http://pages.nycep.org/nmg/downloads/resampledirections.doc
http://pages.nycep.org/nmg/DVLR_instructions__new.doc

However, every time when I try the resample.exe -c (file name) command
line it keeps saying "missing data point line (line number)". It seems
that resample wants a *.prn file which I am clueless about. I am not
sure now if the *.prn file is where the data should be and the command
file is made as the file which defines the data structure. Google
mentions the *.prn file is just a normal file used by the printer to
print documents.

Does anyone know where I'm going wrong with the resample program? Is
there an alternative program which I could use to analyse semilandmarks
from the IDAV landmark software?
Greatful for the help,
Helmi Hadi
