Unable to create/Robots/Nova Carter with Sensors

Parts is the folder that contains 922 USD files (i counted row by column):

and i do only have 2 files containing Chassis:

but do you have the four USDs with wheel in their names?

one of the USD (carter_v2_wheel_left.usd) is being used in the nova_carter.usd:

I’ve counted my files, and there are indeed 922 of them. I also have the four wheel files. It must be another issue.

thanks for confirming!

frankly, i am stumped on this one; hopefully we can get the mods/devs to provide some additional insight. for now, i would suggest working with the model you’ve downloaded from the official site since all the parts are accounted for, so you can still proceed with your work.

Thank you for your help! For now, I’ll use the model downloaded from the official website, and I hope this issue will be fixed in the future.

Hi @howar845 Sorry to get back to you late. It is possible that your local cache files are corrupted so they cannot load properly. You can try to delete the local cache files and download the asset again.

I used the Isaac Sim App Selector to clear the caches. Then, I followed the steps: Content > Isaac Sim > Robots > NVIDIA > NovaCarter > nova_carter.usd. Whether I tried to drag and drop the file into the scene or open it, it still failed.

@howar845 Could you please try Isaac Sim 5.1.0 OSS we recently released on github and see if you observe the same issue?

Also after you cleared the cache via Isaac Sim App Selector, did you check the hub folder? In Isaac Sim, cached USD assets are managed by the Omniverse Nucleus service, specifically through the “Hub” feature, and are stored locally on your machine. You can configure and find its location by checking the “CACHE” icon in the top-right corner of the application.

Thanks for the tip! I followed your suggestion—cleared the cache via the Isaac Sim App Selector and checked the Hub. That did the trick! The issue is resolved now. Really appreciate your help!
