Hello,

I'm using ubuntu 20.04 and ros-humble from source.

I installed your package and it's requirements.

As you can see below I'm able to open gazebo from the world_launch.py but when try executing the other launch file it stops because of some xacro file. image

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

PS. We talked in robot exchange and you told me to move to ROS 2 so here I am :p

Hi,

Thanks for using this package. You need to install xacro. It is a tool allowing macros in XML and is often used in URDF files.

It is usually installed by default but as you use ROS 2 from source it was not. I'll add it as an explicit dependency.

Thank you very much for your help and your work, everything worked perfect. I would like to know if there is a way to add the heavy configuration model.

oKermorgant commented 5 months ago

Hi,

You can have a look at the URDF's (namely bluerov2.xacro, hydrodynamics.xacro and thrusters.xacro) and create new versions of them from the heavy configuration datasheet. Actually I' d be glad if you could do a pull request on this point when it works, other people may be interested in having the heavy configuration.

Sure, I will make one when it's ready, thanks again. Have a nice day.
