Why is the shape you want to generate in ply.alpha instead of ply? about extreme_3d_faces

[anhttran]

Dear,
In that script, I saved the shape parameters as input for my C++ program in the next steps (to estimate pose, expression, shape+bump assembling, and soft-symmetry). I stored only parameters to save processing time.

If you want to save PLY file, you can do similar as in my other code (https://github.com/anhttran/3dmm_cnn/blob/master/demoCode/testBatchModel.py#L176,L178). Or a better way, config the 3D models you want to output in my C++ code (https://github.com/anhttran/extreme_3d_faces/blob/master/main.cpp#L139,L140).

I will soon provide a Dockerfile to make my C++ code easier to compile.

I have updated my code. It now outputs the PLY also.
