I added three scans to process into one asset. The processing completed, but only one scan shows up. The other ones are nowhere to be seen. In the details panel, it says 3 scans, and it shows a green checkmark.  
Sooo.. what happened? Can I align/merge scans manually? That would be useful.  
I’m trying to generate a larger VPS area with a 3D mesh. No Gsplat needed.

Hi Jelmer,

Thanks for reaching out. Would you happen to have taken these scans without overlap among them?

In order to generate an asset out of multiple scans, the scans need to be sharing some overlap so that the asset generation process knows where and how to merge them into a single asset.

Hi Jelmer,

Checking in one more time. Did the scans you take contain overlap among them? Overlap is required so that the asset generation process knows how to merge the different scans together into one.
