Hello, This is a known issue with Kubuntu. We currently support and test Windows, MacOS and Ubuntu platforms. It is virtually impossible to test and adjust all the various Linux distributions for us.

Hello,

If you require another reference frame, you can always attach a dummy to the shape, then make calculations relative to the dummy. Having another local reference frame for the shape object would add more confusion I guess.

Hello Nikolaus, I see two potential causes for that to happen: 1. The links are overlapping and colliding. Make sure they do not overlap or that they have their respondable masks set correctly. 2. The links have too small masses, or a too small moment of inertia. Or the proportion between masses inv...

Hello,

For that, you will have to approximate things with a PID controller for now. Otherwise, if you can wait around 2 weeks, there will be a new V-REP release (3.0.2) where you will be able to write custom joint controllers.

Hello again, The best thing that you could do it to artificially limit the frequency of your control algorithm on the controller side when testing the virtual quadrotor. And have also the quadrotor send synchronization signals to V-REP, so that you can run the simulation step-by-step. It will of cou...

If you turn display off, and have a very light simulation content, then you can have less than 1ms for a simulation pass.

But I still don't understand what kind of task V-REP will have in there. Could you explain a bit further?

Cheers

Oh, it might be another reason, not really sure since I can't regognize much in the picture: If your object is composed by very large triangles, then local lighting might not be taken into account: openGl calculates the lighting on a triangle by interpolating the lighting at its corners. If the corn...

Hello Felipe,

Make sure you read this section of the user manual. It is very important regarding the dynamics of a simulation. In particular all the "design considerations".

Cheers

Hello Arnaud,

Yes, you can do that. In the texture dialog, just click "modulate colors". The texture will then be modulated with the shape color, and be influenced by lighting.

Cheers
