[ros-users] roslaunch gazebo_worlds empty_world.launch

[Ugo Cupcic]

Hi all,

Do I need to install pr2_gazebo to use the command:
roslaunch gazebo_worlds empty_world.launch ? Even if I won't use the PR2 
robot?

I just installed gazebo_tools and gazebo_worlds but I get an error when 
I try to start empty_world. (see below)

Cheers,

Ugo
