This is a Simple LIDAR Loader.

You must use a file with simple XYZ data on it (Usually a .txt)

I do recommend not to import Large Point Clouds or it will crash...

Options are pretty simple:
-Load LIDAR file
-Choose between Box, Triangle (Recommended) or Point Cloud
-Choose the size of your points
-You can collapse all the points in a single EditablePoly if you are using box or triangles (recommended for display speed)
-Hey Ho!-->Press GO!

Inserts into Material Editor sets of 24 SCENE materials.
If there are more than 24 materials in the scene you can choose, which set of 24 you want to load to the Material Editor (slate number one means get the first 24 scene materials, set number two means get the second set of 24 materials and so on).

-- It solves the problem with flipped faces (problem that can't be fixed just with resetXform) that happens by using the default mirror tool on objects that are in a container.
-- It mirrors along the pivot point of the topmost container (in the chosen axis). If there is no container then it mirrors along the first object in the selection.
-- Flip UVs, mirrors the UVs of all selected objects to compensate for the mirrored objects.
-- Copy Materials, makes an identical COPY of the same material as the original counterpart of each mirrored object.
