No checkpoint directory found - Exporting Gaussian Splatting

[JBicera]

Describe the bug
When I try exporting my trained Gaussian Splat scene it says that there is no checkpoint directory found in the nerfstudio_models folder but there is one checkpoint of the 19,999 step out of 20,000 iterations. I made sure my paths were correct so I am confused about how to have it recognize the checkpoint.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. cd to nerfstudio
2. Run ns-export gaussian-splat --load-config outputs/pipe-output/splatfacto/2024-02-16_055622/config.yml --output-dir exports/splat/

Expected behavior
The expected behavior is that the .ply file is exported to the exports/splat/ folder
