I would use large blocks covered with a texture. The texture can contain the windows and doors. This is assuming that you don't need a functionally correct building. > 2. In line with the above question, how would you create an object like a > tree? Do you just build a solid block and cover it with a skin? You are correct. Use a block, and then apply a skin. I would suggest using Blender (a 3D modeling app) to create ogre compatible meshes. http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Tools:_Blender > 3. Are there any Gazebo tutorial books available? No books, just an online manual (http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/doc/Gazebo-manual-svn-html/) Also, code examples are in the sources (gazebo/examples/) > 4. Are there any other good Gazebo forum available? As far as I know this is the only gazebo forum. -nate ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Playerstage-gazebo mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/playerstage-gazebo
