Converting dump files to vtk

 liggghts   by which dump files  were created  in post folder of example file.I have a problem converting these dump files to vtk using pizza and lpp, I feel I don't know how to proceed for conversion after extracting the tar files of pizza or lpp.Do i need to install other packages like vmd, OpenGL etc... for pizza to run. I was also trying to include dump plugin for paraview but i could not succeed.

Can somebody post a detailed procedure for the same.

Thank You.

Then I made following change in in.packing file:
dump dmp all custom 350 post/dump_*.liggghts id type type x y z ix iy iz vx vy vz fx fy fz omegax omegay omegaz radius
then i again did the simulation and now dump.liggghts file was made.

after which i tried installing a paraview plugin by opening paraview and adding a macro update.py after which i restarted paraview by going in the folder of packing where input file is located then I ran paraview command and a update button on right-top corner was there which i clicked twice and then i tried to load the files but paraview is not detecting dump files.
