MyBits - Wan2GP - How To Update

   In this fifth episode of the AI on a local machine series, I will show you how to update your Wan2GP installation to stay up with the added features from DeepBeepMeep.

  In this video we use a DIY budget PC with only 8GB VRAM. We use it to Generate free lip syncing video avatars using Wan2GP. Someone asked if we could show them how to update the files from git hub.

Wan2GP -How To Update

 

 

Step 1. Locate the folder for your Wan2GP installation. Move to that folder(double click it) on your PC. Click on the area to the right of the address in the address bar.

Step 2. Type cmd and hit enter. This will open a terminal on your machine and for me it says:

G:\Wan2GP>

This depends on where your folder is. mine is in G:\Wan2GP.

Step 3.  Type:

git pull origin main

and hit enter, the files will download from the repository.

 

Step 4.  Now launch a virtual environment for Wan2GP by typing, for me it is:

conda activate wan2gp

the wan2gp is the name of my virtual environment for running the program you may have named it differently when you installed it.

You should see:

(wan2gp)G:\Wan2GP>

again your environment name and location may be different.

 

Step 5. Now type:

pip install -r requirements.txt

When the files are done downloading and you are back at the prompt:

(wan2gp)G:\Wan2GP>

 

Step 6. You can now type:

python wgp.py

to run Wan2GP and you should see the updated version.
