vtubers-dataset

This repo downloads the Vtubers illustrations dataset introduced in PAniC-3D: Stylized Single-view 3D Reconstruction from Portraits of Anime Characters. As described in that repo, this downloader will add to ./_data/lustrous

setup

Make a copy of ./_env/machine_config.bashrc.template to ./_env/machine_config.bashrc, and set $PROJECT_DN to the absolute path of this repository folder. The other variables are optional.

Run these lines from the project directory to pull the image from the main project and enter a container; note these are bash scripts inside the ./make folder, not make commands.

make/docker_pull
make/shell_docker

download

First, download the panic_data_models_merged.zip from the project's drive folder, and merge it with this repo's file structure.

There should be a ./_data/lustrous/raw/vroid/metadata.json, which the following commands will use to download the models. Note that metadata.json also contains all vroid model attributions.

# run the downloader
python3 -m _scripts.download_vtubers
