Re: How to save a model of my robot?
Hi, First, your model needs to be tagged as such. Refer to this section in the user manual. Once the model base object is correctly tagged, select it (i.e. just one object should be selected), then click [Menu bar --> File --> Save model as...]. Select the following folder as destination (somewhere ...

Re: Ackermann steering
Hello,
Have a look at the attached model. It implements Ackermann steering programmatically. Mechanical implementation is also possible, but is not as precise.
The attached model will be included from next V-REP release on (V3.0.2) (check the "models/examples" folder)
Cheers

Re: Dynamic simulation is slow and unstable
Hi, Not sure whether this is your problem, but you probably are not using pure shapes. A physics engine can simulate collision response between 3 types of shapes : 1) Random shapes (non-convex, polygon soups, etc.) 2) Convex shapes 3) pure shapes (primitive shapes: cuboids, spheres or cylinders. Som...

Re: Dynamic simulation is wobbly/shaky
Hi, You very probably have mal-adjusted the inertias and/or masses of your dynamic objects. The physics engines require that you don't have too large differences in masses or inertias in a same mechanism. For instance, having a shape with mass 1kg attached via a joint to another shape with mass 1g, ...

Re: URDF importer plugin
Hi, You are right. We corrected a few bugs in that plugin, namely following: - Scaling was not taken into account - Sometimes the plugin would hang when importing object names that contained forbidden chars for V-REP - There was a mix-up in rotation multiplication order The corrected version will be...

Re: My plugin is not loaded
Hello, This is probably due to the fact that under MacOSX, the application is packaged (i.e. in a bundle). You need to copy the plugin inside of the bundle, where the other plugins are located. Typically: "./vrep.app/Contents/MacOS". That's where the client application is also located. Che...

Re: Can we import our Solidworks robot designs into V-REP?
Hello, Yes you can do it, but you will have to export your design to some V-REP compatible format first. V-REP currently supports: DXF 3DS (Windows only) OBJ STL COLLADA URDF V-REP could also be customized via a plugin or add-on to import other formats. Refer to the COLLADA or URDF plugin project fi...

Re: Rendering seems to be very slow
Hello, Maybe your graphic card is simply too old (several years old) and can't handle it. But I suspect it might be linked with another problem: This sometimes happens with some graphic cards (typically Nvidia), and more often on Linux systems. There can be several reasons and several solutions. Mos...

Re: Cannot compile V-REP. Items seems to be missing
Did you follow the compilation instructions from the user manual? http://www.coppeliarobotics.com/helpFiles/en/compilingVrep.htm Basically you should first install V-REP PRO or V-REP PRO EDU. That installation package contains a programming folder that is needed during compilation (i.e. contains som...
