Hi,

SPEC:

  • Ubuntu 22
  • ROS2 humble

I have started exploring the project but am stuck on converting xacro to urdf (I want to use it in a simulator other than gazebo).

  1. I have cloned and built the repository (assume that colcon build --symlink-install)
  2. Try to convert xacro (xacro robots/tiago.urdf.xacro > tiago.urdf)

There are missing meshes in the whole package://pmb2_description/meshes/base/base.stl I have no directory base under meshes.
Can I generate these files or how should I get them?

It would be highly appreciated if you can replay asap, thanks :)

Best,
Adam Krawczyk

Hello @adamkrawczyk,

Thanks for showing interest in our robots. Regarding your query, I don't understand why you don't have a directory base under the meshes, as per the structure here : pmb2_description/meshes, I can find the .stl file that you have listed.

Thank you,

Best Regards,
PAL Robotics Team.

Hmmm strange, could you provide a link?

I have searched but there is nothing.

@saikishor
Thank you and I apologize for the issue. I have installed the required packages from apt (for build).

It seems that everything is resolved now. (The same thing with hey5_description).
