I just upgraded to vtk 4.0 and wanted to try out the vtkPLYReader
Some files it read ok, others it did not. Could it be that the problem
is that it does not handle correctly file written in big endian ?
 
I put an example file at
ftp://scully.esat.kuleuven.ac.be/joris/temp/test.ply
 
the first face read has point indices 0x0, 0xc8000000, 0x01000000 where
it should be 9,200,1 (0x0,0xc8,0x1) so i think it is an endian problem.
