First you put your gaussian splat nerf PLY in the data folder, then declare an instance of an ofxSplat, ``
ofxSplat splat` in your header, say your point cloud is called pointcloud.ply then you call `splat.setup("pointcloud.ply")` to prepare the splats
Then in your update loop call `splat.udate()`
Then in your draw loop call `splat.draw()`` Compatibility
