Unable to use Grabnet

[polemieux]

Hi,

I would like to use GrabNet on my local windows machine. I already have an issue when getting the requirements:

Collecting git+git://github.com/otaheri/chamfer_distance.git (from -r requirements.txt (line 12))
  Cloning git://github.com/otaheri/chamfer_distance.git to c:\users\p5x\appdata\local\temp\pip-req-build-jat8v4_e

  fatal: unable to connect to github.com:

So I modified git: by https: in the requirements file and it gave me the following traces

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pytorch3d (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for pytorch3d

I have also tried to run the Colab demo, but I also get the same problems

Any idea on how I can resolve these issues?

Thank you very much.

I suggest that you try to install pytorch3d from the steps mentioned here: https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d/blob/main/INSTALL.md

And then proceed with the rest of the setup for GrabNet.

I tried to install pytorch3d with no success. It seems I am not the only one facing issues with this library. Does anyone have a clue on how to resolve this on a windows machine or with windows subsystem linux (WSL2) ?
