I too have been trying to work through the differences between the documentation and what's implemented. I've started working on a tutorial to guide people through how to make a complete model with the robot state publisher.

And the documentation is unclear how to apply textures, so I haven't finished that part yet. But maybe you'll find it useful. -DL!! 2010/5/11 Adolfo Rodríguez Tsouroukdissian < adolfo.rodriguez@pal-robotics.com> > > > On Tue, May 11, 2010 at 4:13 PM, Nicolas wrote: > >> Hello ROS Community, >> >> I would like to inform people who are in charge of the ROS Wiki that the >> URDF/XML tutorial is not up to date.
