If you have visual studio 2019 with C++ compiler and CUDA 11.6 you might not need anyother download (besides the ones automated on the addon) if you dont have them, get the JIT_Compiler_PY38_CUDAv11.6.7z on the link below

Step by stetp until I dont finish the tutorial

Before starting the addon, download and execute vs_BuildTools.exe to install the C++ packages necessary to build pytorhc3d.

Select the Build tools for C++ option

it should show these options selected

Click Install

After the installation you can start installing CEB ECON.

Steps to install CEB ECON

Install the vs build tools (explained above)
choose your vevn folder
Click "Create ECON Venv
Click "Download ECON"
Click "Install ECON on venv"
Download the compiler dependencies at https://carlosedubarreto.gumroad.com/l/dependency/2jhtxqo
Click "Install Compiler"
Click "Down&Install Pytorch3d
Click "Register"
On the site, create an account for you.
Registor for all other projects on this link (after registering and logging on the site) https://icon.is.tue.mpg.de/user.php
Click "Register Now" for all the options (it should create an account for you for all those projects with the same password. That is important to make the automatic model download script to work)
Put your username and password on the panel (the user name and pass are not recorded by the addon)
Click "Download" with the Erase Zip unchecked (it makes easier to restart the process in case you have some problem in the model installation, you wont have to download the files again)
After having all the models installed, you can Check the Erase Zip option and click agin on the download. This will erase all the zip download files, that you wont need anymore.

IMPORTANT: If you have an error executing, after doing all the steps, click again on "Install ECON on venv" it might have missed a packages installation that sometimes only works after installing the Compiler
