**Installing on Windows 11 **
With Nvidia GPU
Download and install the graphics driver for your card
https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/drivers/
Download all the bits you need
D-1. Download Microsoft .Net here (Current compatible version .Net 9)
D-2. Download the latest CodeProject AI Server version here
D-3. Download models that CodeProject AI uses to detect motion, face processing etc.
- Goto the github repository, click the green Code button then Download ZIP
- YOLOv8 (Newer GPUs) here https://github.com/codeproject/CodeProject.AI-ObjectDetectionYOLOv8
- Face Processing here https://github.com/codeproject/CodeProject.AI-FaceProcessing
Extract the files
-Right click, extract all on the following-
E-1. Extract the CodeProject AI Server from step D-2 (CodeProject.AI-Server_version_win_x64.zip)
E-2. Extract the modules from step D-3 (CodeProject.AI-ObjectDetectionYOLOv8-main.zip, CodeProject.AI-FaceProcessing-main.zip)
Install
I-1. Install Microsoft .Net (dotnet-sdk-version-win-x64.exe) from step D-1
I-2. Right click and Run As Administrator the CodeProject AI Server Installer from extracted folder in step E-1 (CodeProject.AI-Server_version_win_x64.exe)
Important: Untick all modules as these will timeout and you will likely need to uninstall and start again
I-3. Once the server has installed. Copy the extracted modules to C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\modules,
- CodeProject.AI-ObjectDetectionYOLOv8-main &
- CodeProject.AI-FaceProcessing-main
Now going to C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\modules\CodeProject.AI-ObjectDetectionYOLOv8-main folder, you should see many files. If you see another folder called odeProject.AI-ObjectDetectionYOLOv8-main then you need to copy this up a level.
I-4. Open an elevated command prompt (click start, type cmd, right click, Run as administrator) and navigate into the module directory (cd C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\modules\CodeProject.AI-ObjectDetectionYOLOv8-main)
I-5. Now enter "....\setup" to install the module and wait for it to finish.
I-6. Now install any other modules, e.g. in the same elevated command prompt window, enter "cd C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\modules\CodeProject.AI-FaceProcessing-main" then again run ....\setup and wait for it to complete.
I-7. Restart your server, then load up the CodeProject AI Server Dashboard from the start menu.
I-8. If modules havnt already started, click the play button next to each.
I-9. If it detects a GPU it will automatically switch from CPU to GPU (CUDA)
