Thanks for the great tool!
I'm trying to calibrate the pc from a LiDAR to the pc from a realsense camera. I started with using the whole pc from ROS bag files, but the calibration did not work correctly because one recorded the ceiling and one the floor resulting in overlaying both pcs at those points. That's why I moved on to cropped pcs stored in .pcd files. But here the calibration fails completely. With the error:

[multi_lidar_calibrator-1] Max core number: 0
[multi_lidar_calibrator-1] Num vertices: 2
[multi_lidar_calibrator-1] Max clique lower bound equals to zero. Abort.

How can I give an initial transformation without using TF from ROS?

For reference, here are the pcs that I want to match:
