3D Gaussian Splatting Windows Installation Tutorial (Fast & Easy!)

This is a windows installation tutorial for 3D Gaussian Splatting, made much easier with install scripts so you don't have to manually download stuff into your environments! This tutorial took blood, sweat and tears to make since research for 3D have some of the hardest dependencies to setup, so please go easy on us if something breaks lol.

A big thanks man. I really wanted to try it out, I was waiting for an easy installation like this 👍

[brtmod]

Thank you for that was really struggling with other tuts

if i try to use train py i get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "train py", line 16, in <module>

thanks for the great video. how much vram does my graphic card need for that? or is it run via CPU?

[Instant_Nerf]

Ohh this is amazing. Thanks for this. The other tutorial is exhausting. I guess my image resolution were too high? I got a " Encountered quite large input images (>1.6K pixels width), rescaling to 1.6K.
If this is not desired, please explicitly specify '--resolution/-r' as 1""... however the process did continue. Thanks.

gaussian-rasterization setup error. Is there any way to improve it?

[joshuacadogan]

Is there a way of exporting a usable file? Like the .Ply so we can import it into another program?

[genlee]

Thanks for toturial, If I only use rtx3060 8g Vram so does it worth Install AI on local windows? Too slow ? right?

[kevinross]

You're amazing, thanks for this.

pinochio is hanging when i try to download the git files its just a spinning disk

[Eduard_Baias]

I got this ERROR

from gaussian_renderer import render, network_gui
File "C:\Users\moroc\pinokio\api\gaussian-splatting-Windows.git\gaussian_renderer\__init__.py", line 14, in <module>
from diff_gaussian_rasterization import GaussianRasterizationSettings, GaussianRasterizer
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'diff_gaussian_rasterization'

Who knows how to fix this?

Hello how are you? a query: in 3D Gaussian Splatting Windows, I was able to do everything, but when I get to point 3 of the step 3 tutorial: Train/optimize the images, when I insert: python train.py -s input_data/fern, it returns this error via console: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "train.py", line 13, in <module>
import torch
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch'
What can be? thank you

[bause]

Hello great video, it is possible to run the script cloud machine like google collab ? My pc is bad

[elangkumarans]

Hey thanks for the tutorial. I am encountering this error while installing the package. CondaVerificationError: The package for pytorch located at
appears to be corrupted. The path
specified in the package manifest cannot be found.

[dragoneyegaming]

Wow seems like a great leap forward in helping the not so smarty (like me) but because I am not so smarty, I appear to be getting the following when I try to point to my photos

'The system cannot find the path specified.
ERROR:root:Feature extraction failed with code 1. Exiting. '

Checked the template and it is definitely right

[eurueka]

I'm getting this message: RuntimeError: [enforce fail at data. DefaultCPUAllocator: not enough memory: you tried to allocate 20294400 bytes.
Is this Ram or space disk problem?

[JUANCARLOS-fzvk]

In step 3 I get the following error: (base) train.py -s input_data/fern
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Usuario\pinokio\api\gaussian-splatting-Windows.git\train.py", line 13, in <module>
import torch
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch'

[djtyros]

So I watched all that, but I don't really know what it does?
I appreciate it's only an installation tutorial, so I'm going to have a quick catch up on your videos now, in hope to find a "usage" video.
If you have any specific recommendation for a usage video, please let me know.
Thanks

so 12gb vram ? can't run or more time need to process

[StriKFoRCOwO]

after using the command "python train.py -s input_data/Test" i get the following error:
