Error installing submodules

[BenjaminJaume]

Hi, thank you for your great work!

After following the first 3DGS video tutorial, then your installation guidelines, I am running into some issues while trying to install/build the submodules depth-diff-gaussian-rasterization and simple-knn. I am running pip install -e submodules/depth-diff-gaussian-rasterization and here's the error I am getting:

Obtaining file:///C:/projects/4DGaussians/submodules/depth-diff-gaussian-rasterization
  Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... error

Thank you for any help.

Hi, did you success to run the valinna 3DGS's training pipeline? I dont think the install error will happen if 3D-GS can be trained on your environment. Besides, do you still have problem with the real time viewer??

[BenjaminJaume]

Thank you for your answer.

Yes, I was able to run the 3DGS trainline pipeline. And I did not have problem using the real time viewer.

I have updated the issue to show you my setup, software and hardware (Dell XPS 15 9560, with Windows 10 x64 machine, 32GB of Ram, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 4096MB.). Let me know if there is some incomptabilities there, maybe.

Emmmm it actually beyond my skills. You can go to the original webpage to ask the author, maybe he can help you ... sorry for that :(

[BenjaminJaume]

No problems. Thank you for taking the time to answer!
