ns command not working

[WolfGamer2]

how to run ns command

[fuzRodahh]

i have the same problem

[Tobe2d]

looks like the instructions are mixed with linux

[tancik]

Here are instructions for getting to the windows terminal (where you enter the ns commands) - https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/a-beginners-guide-to-the-windows-command-line/#:~:text=Press%20Win%20%2B%20R%20to%20open,PowerShell%20or%20Windows%20Terminal%20instead.

[WolfGamer2]

Hi, sorry I misunderstood the question. Do you mind explaining what you have tried and what errors you are receiving? I haven't used windows in over a decade so I am probably missing some of the subtleties. You should be able to run directly in windows, windows subsystem linux shouldn't be necessary. Maybe @terrancewang can chime in with how he runs training as he as been developing with windows.

I can download everything, but when I am running the blender ns commands, errors come that ns is not a valid command. How am I supposed to finish the installation?

I still only see [image: image.png] Can you copy and paste the text output?

[WolfGamer2]

Here -

[WolfGamer2]

no ns command

[tancik]

That list should include nerfstudio. Since it doesn't it means that nerfstudio was not successfully installed. Can you paste the output to pip install nerfstudio.

[WolfGamer2]

Ok, I will do that.

im already have nerfstudio, but still cant do ns command

[tancik]

@fuzRodahh Can you run python in the command prompt. Then run import nerfstudio and see if there are any errors.

[fuzRodahh]

i can , and no error

i think @Tobe2d was right, it mixed with linux tutorial

[tancik]

Hmm, I'm at a bit of a loss. It seems like this must be an issue with your particular windows setup. Maybe try installing from from source.

pip uninstall nerfstudio
git clone https://github.com/nerfstudio-project/nerfstudio.git
cd nerfstudio
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
pip install -e .

[WolfGamer2]

same I can run it and no errors

Ok, well if you have the folder downloaded, you can run python scripts/train.py instead of ns-train All the other aliases are listed here https://docs.nerf.studio/en/latest/reference/cli/index.html

[terrancewang]

Hello sorry that the commands aren't working for you :(

I'm working on Windows 10 and usually use Git-Bash instead of powershell, but I just ran through the Quickstart steps on powershell to try to reproduce your error, but I was unable to do so. My best guess is that it has something to do with your setup as well. Hopefully in the meantime you can play with the library by run the scripts directly.

[WolfGamer2]

It is giving me a netifaces error

@WolfGamer2 can you post the entire error

[WolfGamer2]

Here -

[tancik]

It looks like you need to update Microsoft Visual C++ - https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

[WolfGamer2]

Which one should I install -

[tancik]

I don't think you need any of these extra packages. If it doesn't let you continue without selecting one, try selecting the "Desktop development with C++"

[WolfGamer2]

Thanks! I got past it but I am getting another driver error.

[WolfGamer2]

How do i load images?

[tancik]

@WolfGamer2 Do you have an nvidia GPU? It is required for using nerfstudio. Assuming you do, you will need to install CUDA - https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-quick-start-guide/index.html

[WolfGamer2]

I don't have a NVidia gpu

[WolfGamer2]

How do I add images to nerfstudio?

[tancik]

Nerfstudio won't work without an nvidia gpu. An alternative is to use colab for compute - https://colab.research.google.com/github/nerfstudio-project/nerfstudio/blob/main/colab/demo.ipynb

[WolfGamer2]

I do not get how to render video - Render Video Export the camera path from within the viewer, then run this cell. The rendered video should be at renders/output.mp4!

How to get camera path.
