Blender addon to import data

There is a Blender addon that you can download for free to import the data in a easier way. Go to https://gum.co/mocap_import and download it.

To use to import VIBE pkl data, it is needed to install a python package first. To install it on windows, replace the following code with the directory where your blender is installed (or unzipped)

D:\Blender\blender-2.92.0-windows64\2.92\python\bin\python.exe D:\Blender\blender-2.92.0-windows64\2.92\python\lib\site-packages\pip install joblib'
