import .wrl file problems

I am trying to import some .wrl files into Blender 2.78 on ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit), but the models do not seem to be imported correctly.

I have three .wrl files to illustrate the problem. I couldn’t upload .wrl files to this post so I’ve provided download links. I have attached a .blend file for 952.wrl to illustrate some of the problems:

  • 952.wrl imports the mesh ok, but half of the model has no colour associated with the mesh.
  • 661.wrl has the same type of cylinders and spheres used in 952.wrl, but doesn’t import at all. Instead I get an error message
  • 4oo8.wrl imports the mesh ok, but again some parts of the mesh have no colour associated with it.

The .wrl files were all produced by JMol version 14.6.4_2016.10.02. All three wrl files import perfectly into Mesh Lab(v1.3.3, 64 bit), so the problem would appear to be with the Blender importer.

Any help to resolve this problem would be much appreciated.

Thanks
