I have a scanned 3D model with color information in PLY format. However, I failed to add this information to render image in blender.

Someones shows that the attribute node can do the job. But I even can't find this node in 2.78 in node editor.

It seems that the software changes a little bit. The only option for input are

coordinates

curve time

Image

Texture

I tried the material mode, still there is not attribute node. enter image description here

Can someone help me in this?

    You are looking at the texture nodes, the material nodes have the attribute node, that is assuming you are using cycles. – sambler Jul 21 '17 at 04:47
  • I tried the material, still couldn't find the attribute node. I have updated the post with the input option available. Could you provide me a link with detail procedure to do this? – Sergius Liu Jul 23 '17 at 00:13

    The attribute node is used in cycles, you seem to be using blender render. See: https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/15681/how-to-set-render-engine-in-blender –  Jul 23 '17 at 00:24
  • Thank you. That is correct. I also find a way to add color to material. In material option, we can select the using vetices color option. – Sergius Liu Aug 05 '17 at 20:29
