carsim 4 windows installation

[Gunjan Sharma]

 I want to install carsim4 on my windows 10 ,without GPU support.

It would be really helpful if  anyone could help me with it.

Hi Gunjan,

You could try following the old Windows instructions for CARLsim 3 here, and let us know where you get stuck. 

You will very likely run into difficulties, however, as AFAIK CARLsim hasn't been formally tested with Windows since version 3.

Also note that the current version of CARLsim is 5 (rather than 4): https://github.com/UCI-CARL/CARLsim5

Thanks,

Hello Siggy,

Thank you for replying .

I tried both carlsim 3 and carlsim4 

When I ran carl.sln using my Visual studio 2019 ,I got the error as :

 Studio\2019\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\BuildCustomizations\CUDA 8.0.props" was not found. Confirm that the expression in the Import declaration "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\\BuildCustomizations\CUDA 8.0.props" is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

I had already installed CUDA 8.0 toolkit, but the problem persisted. I thought about moving CUDA8.0 props to the specified path, but couldn't find the CUDA props file in the installed location.

For linux there is "$ export CARLSIM3_NO_CUDA=1" for installation without GPU support .I was wondering if there was similar thing for windows. My computer has intelHD graphics and i3 processor with 4GB RAM.

I am still a beginner ,so I apologize if my questions seem silly.

Hi Gunjan,

Since the Visual Studio file has not been tested recently (and may be broken), you might have better luck if you install Windows Subsystem for Linux and try installing with the Linux instructions via bash.

Thanks,
