If you are having issues installing pyassimp, here are some helpful steps depending on your OS.

For Windows Users

  1. Install assimp 4.1.0 from https://github.com/assimp/assimp/releases/download/v4.1.0/assimp-sdk-4.1.0-setup.exe
  2. Run pip install pyassimp==4.1.3 in VSCode terminal, while you have your elements environment activated
  3. Rerun pip install pyassimp==4.1.3 It should print a message: Requirement already satisfied: pyassimp==4.1.3 in PATH Note down the PATH (it should contain files such as core.py, errors.py, material.py).
  4. Open the folder assimp was installed in step 1 (default is Program Files/Assimp). Navigate to folder bin/X64 and copy the file assimp-vc140-mt.dll
  5. Paste the dll file inside the folder into the PATH folder from step 3.

For Mac Users

  1. Run conda install -c flyem-forge assimp==4.0.1
  2. Run pip install pyassimp==4.1.3

Having properly installed the pyassimp package, loading the astroboy_walk.dae (e.g., in pyEEL/notebooks/GATE/2.Skinning_Animation) should not take more than a few seconds.
