[PlayerStage-Gazebo] Texture on simple solids/walls

[Prabhu VijaiRengam]

Hi Nate,

Sorry for bombarding you with mails like this. Why do the robots and objects 
always fall into the environment? Is there a way to place them in gently?

Cheers,
Prabhu

Hi Prabhu,

I would grab the latest version of cvs. A few fixes have been made related 
to
textures and multiple cameras.

I you want a brighter texture image, I would decrease the attenuation of the
light source and remove any transparency from the objects. For a list of
available features for the various objects, look in example1.world. This 
world
file contains most of the configurations parameters. In particular, the last
model contains a "visualization" section where one can set rendering 
parameters
of a model. This "visualization" section can be applied to any model.

If you still notice problems, could you send your world file and possibly a 
URL
to a sample image?

Thanks,

-nate
