dracoanimatedpointclouds's Issues

original pcx update with draco

Hello
Do you think you are going to update your fork from pcx in order to implement the new pcx versions fom keijiro
The main missing feature is the implementation of the 3D texture in order to use the point cloud in the fx graph
Thanks !
