Revision history [back]

I seem to remember that heightmap support was broken in electric but has been re-added in recent gazebo (1.0+) versions. There also is a tutorial on using height maps on the new gazebo wiki, so that might be worth a try.

An alternative approach I used in our hector_gazebo_worlds package is the use of a COLLADA terrain mesh generated using blender. This works both in electric and fuerte.
