Both SMPL+H and VPoser should be installed to this directory. Detailed instructions are below. After installation, this directory should contain a smplh
directory and a vposer_v1_0
directory.
To install the body model:
- Create an account on the project page
- Go to the
Downloads
page and download the "Extended SMPL+H model (used in AMASS)". Place the downloadedsmplh.tar.xz
in this directory. - Extract downloaded model to new directory
mkdir smplh && tar -xf smplh.tar.xz -C smplh
. The model will be read in from here automatically when running this codebase.
Note if you decide to install the body model somewhere else, please update SMPLH_PATH
in this file.
To install the pose prior:
- Create an account on the project page
- Go to the
Download
page and under "VPoser: Variational Human Pose Prior" click on "Download VPoser v1.0 - CVPR'19" (note it's important to download v1.0 and not v2.0 which is not supported and will not work) - Copy the zip file to this directory, and unzip with
unzip vposer_v1_0.zip
If you're left with a directory called vposer_v1_0
in the current directory, then it's been successfully installed. The --vposer
argument in run_fitting.py
by default points to this directory.
