Running on ROS Noetic

Hi, I was trying to run this on a fresh ROS noetic with melodic-devel branch. Managed to compile it, but getting this error during launching of the launch file. Would kindly need some advice on this. Thanks!

Hi, I am using ROS noetic as well. Instead of melodic-devel, try the latest branch once. That worked for me. The error you have seems to be because of old mesh format - possibly due to melodic branch - which is quite behind the latest one.

Thanks for the reply. Running well now :+1:

Could you tell me what is the latest branch to solve the OGRE issue?
