Sculptris mesh retologied in 3D-Coat can't open in Blender 2.5.8

Hi everybody.

This my test : one mesh with voltex in Sculptris -> exported as .obj.
http://www.encrier.be/lezard03.obj.gz

Imported for retopo in 3D-Coat -> Autoretopo in 3D-Coat with some manual lines to help it. Seems OK ->exported as mesh from 3D-Coat
http://www.encrier.be/lezard03-retopo.obj.zip

When I import it in Blender 5.2.8 I have this error :

What could be wrong ?

Thank you so much.

It’s not the first time i read on this forum about Blender not able to import some .obj
The solution in this case is to open your .obj with the free meshlab , and Save it in .obj
http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/

Blender will then be able to import it.

Your linked obj seems to import fine for me. I’m using 2.58a on OSX

Just gave a try.

On Blender 2.58 it does not import
On Blender 2.58a indeed it does

So ditch 2.58 and get 2.58a on blender.org

eheh thank you for the tests. I have downloaded meshlab but it recreates all triangles from my quads immediately on import :frowning:

By the way we are here, does anyone could guide me a little on retopo under Blender. I have asked a question in this thread : http://blenderartists.org/forum/subscription.php?do=addsubscription&t=222062
