Re: Problem with Ros Interface

Hi, Erfan. How are you? I have just successfully compiled sim_ros_interface in the Ubuntu 20.04/ROS Noetic/CoppeliaSim 4.1.0 combo. First of all, the plugin requires the catkin build tool instead of catkin_make . You may install it with $ apt install python-catkin-tools Then, remove build and devel ...

Re: Failing on building ROS2 interface on Ubuntu 18.04

Thank you for the quick response. I see there is no need for modifying CMakeLists. I am probably doing something wrong on my own. Starting from the beginning for a re-check purpose, I have just downloaded CoppeliaSim 4.0.0. (rev4) and cloned to `<ros2_ws>/src` the ROS2 interface using git clone --re...

Re: problem about new version coppeliaSim

Same problem here. I am not able to open a former scene from V-REP. I even exported only the robot model, but the problem persists. The crash happens as I try to open the scene/model. Last version of V-REP used: 3.6.2 (rev 0) 64 bits. CoppeliaSim version: CoppeliaSim Edu V4.0.0. (rev. 1) 64 bits. OS...

Re: V-REP + ROS 2

Thank you so much for your response, @fferri. @Smitty44, I am with both ROS1 and ROS2 on my machine now. As @fferri stated, you may have some issues while building some stuff. Until now, I managed to work around them by controlling each terminal's ROSX sourcing - the ros1_bridge requires a tricky RO...

Hello, everyone.

(Thanks for the great simulator :)

Cheers.

When advertising a service, I use the following LUA command: serv_handler = simROS.advertiseService('/srv_topic', '/std_msgs/foo', 'my_service_callback_function') However, the interface generates a service topic wit...

Velodyne VPL-16 rotation issue

Hello everyone. I am having a small issue with the velodyne VPL-16 sensor that comes with V-REP. I want to export its pointcloud to ROS.

Re: V-REP crashes on ros interface

Updating the status. I have downloaded the beta (rev9) version of V-REP and it worked just fine with the newer ROS interface package available. Hope now it will be easier for you to find and correct the problem in the next versions of the software. Thank you a lot for V-REP, it is just great a great...
