Town 01 through 07 FBX file locations - newbie questions #2087

Closed kvijaykiran closed 5 years ago

kvijaykiran commented 5 years ago

Hello everyone,

I just began getting acquainted with CARLA, so I am still wrapping my head around where things are within the download distribution. I have two questions:

Q1: I downloaded the precompiled version of Carla 0.9.5. Using the example Python scripts, I am able to load different Towns, but I could not figure where different town file geometry and maps are located. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I see a .pak file CarlaUE4-WindowsNoEditor.pak (~3.4 GB) located in 'CARLA_0.9.5\CarlaUE4\Content\Paks', but it is not clear what this contains.

Also I see point cloud files for Town01 through Town07 in 'CARLA_0.9.5\HDMaps' directory. I cannot imagine that Carla is building a surface out of those point clouds on the fly.

Q2: Is it possible to extract FBX files for these towns from the pre-compiled Windows binary version of CARLA? Do I need to install Unreal Engine for this?

Thanks, Vijay.
