 * 1) Install Python. While FreeCAD and some other programs come with a bundled version of Python, having a fixed install will help with the next steps. You can get Python here: https://www.python.org/downloads/ . Of course you should pick the right version, in this case that would be 2.6.X, as FreeCAD currently uses 2.6.2 (Personally I went with 2.6.2, and by the way, you can check the version yourself by starting the Python.exe in the bin folder of FreeCAD). You'll also have to add the path of the installation directory into the path variable so you can access Python from the cmd. Now we can install the missing things, in total there are 3 things we need to install: numpy, setuptools, pycollada
 * 2) Fetch numpy here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/ . Pick a version which fits to the version used by FreeCAD, there are multiple installers for different Python versions in every numpy version folder, the installer will put numpy into the folder of your Python installation, where FreeCAD can access it as well
 * 3) Fetch setuptools here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools (We need to install the setuptools in order to install pycollada in the next step)
 * 4) Unzip the downloaded setuptools  file somewhere
 * 5) Start a cmd with admin permission
 * 6) Navigate to the unpacked setuptools folder
 * 7) Install the setuptools by tipping "Python setup.py install" into the cmd, this will not work when Python is not installed or when the path variable hasn't been configured
 * 8) Fetch pycollada here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycollada/ (has already been posted above) and once again:
 * 9) Unzip the downloaded pycollada file somewhere
 * 10) Start a cmd with admin permission, or use the one you opened not long ago
 * 11) Navigate to the unpacked pycollada folder
 * 12) Install the setuptools by tipping "Python setup.py install" into the cmd
