ERROR: No matching distribution found for pytorch3d

Hi, I was trying to install this package by following the description in README.md. Here are my steps:

Step 1: Create virtual env

# Create virtual env and update packages
python3.10 -m venv venv_nerfiller \
&& source venv_nerfiller/bin/activate \
&& python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel

Step 2: Install nerfstuidio. Everything works perfectly.

# Install nerfstudio
python3 -m pip install torch==2.1.2+cu118 torchvision==0.16.2+cu118 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118

python3 -m pip install ninja git+https://github.com/NVlabs/tiny-cuda-nn/#subdirectory=bindings/torch

python3 -m pip install nerfstudio

Step 3: Install NeRFiller

# Install NeRFiller
pip install -e .

But I encountered the error:

INFO: pip is looking at multiple versions of nerfiller to determine which version is compatible with other requirements. This could take a while.
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pytorch3d (from nerfiller) (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for pytorch3d

I don't quite understand that since pytorch3d doesn't specify a version, why pip cannot find a version for it.

Here is my system environment:

• Python:

  Python: 3.10

• CUDA version:

  $ nvcc --version
  nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver
  Copyright (c) 2005-2022 NVIDIA Corporation
  Built on Wed_Sep_21_10:33:58_PDT_2022
  Cuda compilation tools, release 11.8, V11.8.89
  Build cuda_11.8.r11.8/compiler.31833905_0

Thank you for creating this awesome project.

Hey! First off, thanks for using my project! Could you edit the pyproject.toml on your end to remove pytorch3d, here? Then, you could try this...

pip install "git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d.git@stable"

Hopefully this helps. pytorch3d is typically tricky to install in my experience. Sometimes I clone pytorch3d locally and do whatever I can to get it running, by following this doc.
