STL files are binary and ROS cannot open them. Simmechanics link creates XML file and lot of STL files. So we have options: SolidWorks converter on XML writing with vim. As much I know there is no way to draw 3D model with some visual tools into URDF format. They are way too complicated to make it somehow manually from scratch.

I'm thinking of solving the long loading problem by upgrading my PC since I have a new one in the works, I just gotta get money to order a new GPU, some good RAM and possibly a new OS for it.We have hard time converting our very cool robot SolidWorks files into URDF. Yeah the start up was always long but I feel like it's gotten longer just as the loading screens have gotten longer, loading screens from area to area, for me, used to be like, 3 or 6 seconds, now it practically takes atleast a minute or two to load the next area.

#Meshlab takes forever to start install

Originally posted by Zzabur:The game has always been very long to start using preloading, perhaps on a previous install (or during a patch), the launching options have been reseted. Buy a SSD, that's what i did, the loading screen loads in about 15sec on SSD installation. But i guess that won't resolve long loading screens when zoning. Don't use preloading, i don't remember exactly the command, i guess you go into properties on your game screen, launch options and then enter '-no preload' or something like that (any user that knows the command could confirm?). Just wait until the loading is done (I used to launch the game, then make a coffee, when i am back, the login screen is there^^), i know it's long, but switching characters from the character selection screen is very fast after preloading. The game has always been very long to start using preloading, perhaps on a previous install (or during a patch), the launching options have been reseted. What's going on? Was there a change in the game itself that caused this to start happening? Or is it just my PC shriveling up and rotting? It really used to not be this way for me, but now it is for some reason. Originally posted by BossDragon: But in recent times I've been having technical issues with the game, primarily the game taking almost literally an eternity to start up, and when I select a character or enter a new area, the loading screens take -minutes.
