🧠 What We’ll Cover:

1. Anaconda environment setup
2. Installing DeepFaceLive
3. Downloading pretrained models
4. Running DeepFaceLive from command line
5. Testing and going live (optional)

---

✅ PREREQUISITES

• A Windows PC with NVIDIA GPU
• Installed:
  • Anaconda: https://www.anaconda.com/products/distribution
  • Git: https://git-scm.com/
  • OBS Studio (optional, for output)

---

1. 🧪 Create Anaconda Environment

bashCopyEditconda create -n deepface python=3.9 -y
conda activate deepface

---

2. 🧾 Clone DeepFaceLive Repository

bashCopyEditgit clone https://github.com/iperov/DeepFaceLive.git
cd DeepFaceLive

---

3. 🧱 Install Dependencies

A. Install CUDA & cuDNN (if not already)

Make sure your NVIDIA GPU driver is updated, then:

bashCopyEditconda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=11.8 -c pytorch -c nvidia

B. Install Other Python Packages

bashCopyEditpip install -r requirements.txt

If you encounter OpenCV errors, install with:

bashCopyEditpip install opencv-python-headless

---

4. 📥 Download Pretrained Models

You can:

• Download from: https://dfmodels.org
• Place model folders inside:

bashCopyEditDeepFaceLive/model/inswapper_128

You can also train your own later if needed.

---

5. 🚀 Run DeepFaceLive from Command Line

To launch DeepFaceLive:

bashCopyEditpython main.py

If nothing happens or you need GUI:

bashCopyEditpython DeepFaceLive.py

---

6. 📺 Optional: Route to OBS or Zoom

1. Install OBS Studio + OBS-VirtualCam
2. Open OBS → Add a Window Capture (point to DeepFaceLive)
3. Start Virtual Camera
4. Select OBS Virtual Camera in Zoom or other apps

---

7. 💡 Extra Useful Commands

• Deactivate environment:

bashCopyEditconda deactivate

• List all environments:

bashCopyEditconda env list

• Delete environment:

bashCopyEditconda remove --name deepface --all

---

🧪 If You Want Voice Change

Use Voicemod, RVC, or iMyFone MagicMic. They can run in parallel to DeepFaceLive and stream to Discord, OBS, etc.

---

🚨 Tips for Success

• Ensure camera permissions are enabled.
• Your GPU must support CUDA (NVIDIA only).
• Don’t run in low VRAM setups — at least 4GB GPU VRAM is needed.
• Run in Anaconda Prompt, not basic CMD.
