Here is a maxscript that reads a .ply file and creates a mesh for it (note that for big meshes this is very. very slow).

Error on tested PLYs

Hi thanks for writing this script (12 years ago!). I'm getting issues trying to load some sample ply files that I've gotten from www.sampleandhold.co.uk

It appears they're using binary_little_endian 1.0 - and looking through the Maxscript it appears that it's designed to read human readable text. Is there a way to get this to work? I've also tried the MaxPlugins.De PLY importer but their link's broken.
