Hi,


Im not on a main Linux distribution and I dont have all the dependencies.

Please, can you create a "portable" Linux version with all the dependencies in a the same folder ? (Firefox offers the same so no need to install)


Im working on a MAKE MUSCLE plugin. But i need Make Human to work (1.2 or below if Python 3 is a problem).


Is this possible ?

I guess it's possible. However, as it should be easy to get makehuman up and running from source on any linux distribution with access to pip, I'm wondering if it's really worth the effort to ship a non-system python. Also, if you want to do development, you're better off running makehuman from source.

On a non-debian linux system:

Install python (at least 3.6)
Install qt (at least 5.0)
Install git

This should give you access to pip. It might be called "pip3". Pip offers the rest of the necessary dependencies. Simply run:

pip install pyopengl
pip install pyqt5
pip install numpy

Now all you need to do to get started with makehuman is to clone the github repo and then run the download_assets.py script.

MakeHuman 1.2 ( currently alpha) requires python3. It will not run with python 2.7. For old python, use MH 1.1.

Its unusual for linux to not have python3. Type python3 -V

Well, its not so important. I can use another Linux Live distro.

How old is your distro most current ones have Python 3.5 as there default version and just an aside most of Linux system utilities are written in Python for that matter the Gnome 3 desktop was built with Python 3 as well as the Cinnamon desktop so I find it very strange that Python 3 is not the default.

Enjoy the Choice :)
