Hello,

Ref : <http://wiki.povray.org/content/Reference_Talk:Mesh>

"New to version 3.7.1 support has been added to allow importing 
Wavefront (OBJ) files." With the given example

mesh {
   obj "file_name.obj"
   texture_list {
     "Foo" texture { MyTexture }
     "Bar" material { MyMaterial }
     prefix "Tx"
     suffix "_"
   }
   inside_vector y
}

and with the latest version of MacPOV, this results in the error :
"Parse Error: No triangles in triangle mesh".


The "file_name.obj" file contains only geometric vertex list and faces 
elements list. No triangle because it's and OBJ file 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavefront_.obj_file>.
The file open well with Wings3D and Meshlab.

So, implemented or not ?
Regards
