I have installed uwsim using UWSim Source-based installation . Now I am trying to run uwsim first time using command rosrun uwsim uwsim. So, asked me to download some data, after I clicked yes, no new window appears. Instead, it shows following error.

it shows massage shows in command window after runnin rosrun uwsim uwsim

Hello

The data is already downloaded, please run the "install_usv_sim" script.

So the folder ".uwsim" will be moved to your home folder.

@marceloparavisi Thank you for your reply sir. I am learning ROS and I am completely new to this. Can you please tell me, where that file is located if I want to run it?

When I try to run the "install_usv_sim" script, I get the following: mv: cannot stat '.uwsim': No such file or directory
