Anyone can help me?

I think the above stated dependency issue can be resolved by following few steps:

Step 1: Verify System Requirements

• Ensure you have Python 3.7-3.10 installed (Blender 3.4 uses Python 3.10)
• Check you have OpenVINO Toolkit installed (version 2022.3 or newer)
• Confirm your system meets the hardware requirements (Intel CPU with AVX2 support)

Step 2: Clean Installation

• Remove any existing installation:
• Delete the addon folder from C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.4...
• Remove any residual files in Blender's scripts folder

Download fresh copies:

• Get the latest dream-textures-openvino from official GitHub
• Download OpenVINO from Intel's official site

Step 3: Proper Installation Steps

• Install OpenVINO first:

pip install openvino
pip install openvino-dev

• Install dependencies:

pip install torch torchvision --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu
pip install diffusers transformers

• Install the Blender addon:

  • In Blender, go to Edit > Preferences > Add-ons
  • Click "Install" and select the dream-textures zip file
  • Enable the addon

Step 4: Environment Setup

• Set up OpenVINO environment variables:

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\openvino_2022\bin"
setupvars.bat

• Verify torch is working:

import torch
print(torch.version)
print(torch.cuda.is_available()) # Should be False if using CPU-only

Step 5: Common Fixes

• If you still get errors, Try installing specific versions:

pip install torch==1.13.1 torchvision==0.14.1 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu

• Add Blender's Python to system PATH:

  • Locate Blender's Python (typically in Blender Foundation\Blender 3.4\python\bin)
  • Add this to your system PATH environment variable

• For "Error loading DLL" issues:

  • Install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable
  • Update your Intel graphics drivers

Try to implement these sequence of actionable steps. I hope you can recover from this issue by this way.
