hello there, I want to fine-tune https://universe.roboflow.com/cricket-qnb5l/basketball-xil7x model ,can i download the pt file from anywhere?
- Project Type: HELP
- Operating System & Browser:
- Project Universe Link or Workspace/Project ID:
- Do you grant Roboflow Support permission to access your Workspace for troubleshooting? (Yes/No):
Im new here, thanks for answering
Hey. No, there’s not an option if it’s just a public dataset/model. But if you trained the model you can download the weights. Here’s a full answer from AI:
Can You Download .pt Files from Universe Datasets?
No — Roboflow does not support downloading model weight files (.pt or otherwise) directly from Roboflow Universe projects. [Forum: Download model weights] [Forum: Download from Universe]
However, you have two alternatives:
1. Download the Dataset (images + annotations)
You can download the dataset (images and annotations) from Universe in over 40 formats (e.g., YOLOv8, COCO, VOC, etc.) as a ZIP file or via a code snippet. [Download a Universe Dataset]
2. Run the Model Locally via Roboflow Inference
If you want to run a Universe model locally without downloading weights, use the open-source Roboflow Inference package, which automatically fetches and caches model weights on first use. [Download Model Weights]
3. Download Weights from Your Own Trained Models
If you trained a model in your own Roboflow workspace (not a Universe project), you can download the .pt weights — this feature is available on Basic, Growth, and certain Enterprise plans. [Download Model Weights]
