1. Download the latest release from the releases section in GitHub
2. Install python 3.11.9 on your computer (later versions won't work), and make sure python.exe is added to PATH. Python 3.11.9 can be downloaded from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3119/.
3. Unzip the 3DVisCompanion.zip file.
4. Open a command prompt or powershell window in the src folder of the unzipped folder.
5. Make sure python 3.11.9 is the active python version by running the python --version command.
6. Install the pip modules in requirements.txt by running pip install -r requirements.txt.
7. Change the BASE_PATH variable in config.json to the path where you want the models and scenes to be saved. The default path is configured for the CAVE2 at UniSC.
