NVIDIA is deprecating support for Omniverse Launcher.
Instead, each application and extension should be installed separately.
Omniverse now comes as Omniverse Kit SDK.
Go to the Omniverse website and scroll to the Get Started section.
Click "Linux" to download a zip folder.
Extract the zip folder at a known location. Here, we put it under /home/tk/Documents/Omniverse/kit-sdk-public@106.5.0+1102.eecf68f2/
.
To launch Omniverse, go to the kit install directory and run
The Omniverse should now be running.
By default, this version of Omniverse do not have most of the Extensions enabled. We need to manually configure them in the UI interface.
In the Omniverse application window, go to Window -> Extensions.
Search for Physx, install, enable, and set to be autoload
Similarly, search for Physx bundle and do the same
Then, search for onshape
Now the Import from Onshape should be available under File
Go to Edit -> Preferences
Under the Stage tab, set Default Up Axis to be Z.
Then, create a new stage with File -> New, or Ctrl + N
The frame should be updated.
