Collection of Gazebo models and world files.

Gazebo model collection

This repository contains a collection of models and world files for Gazebo. The models were designed for use with Paparazzi but can also be used for other projects.

To use the models, the models directory needs to be added to the GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH environment variable. To do so, add the following line to the end of ~/.bashrc:

export GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH=<path to this repo>/models:$GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH

where <path to this repo> should be replaced by the path of this repository.

Source files

Source files for sketchup (*.skp) have been included in the src directory. These can be exported to .obj or .dae files from SketchUp. Textures can be extracted from the model by exporting to .dae with the Export Texture Maps box checked. The exported files often need some tweaking to work correctly in Gazebo; see doc/gazebo_export_hints.md for more information.
