CARLA is an open-source simulator for autonomous driving research. CARLA has been developed from the ground up to support development, training, and
|
||
validation of autonomous driving systems. In addition to open-source code and protocols, CARLA provides open digital assets (urban layouts, buildings,
|
||
vehicles) that were created for this purpose and can be used freely. The simulation platform supports flexible specification of sensor suites and
|
||
environmental conditions.

>[!NOTE]
|
||
> This is the development branch `ue5-dev` for the **Unreal Engine 5.3 version of CARLA**. This branch exists in parallel with the Unreal Engine 4.26 version of CARLA, in the `ue4-dev` branch. Please be sure that this version of CARLA is suitable for your needs as there are significant differences between the UE 5.3 and UE 4.26 versions of CARLA.
|
||
|
||
### Recommended system
|
||
|
||
* Intel i7 gen 9th - 11th / Intel i9 gen 9th - 11th / AMD ryzen 7 / AMD ryzen 9
|
||
* +32 GB RAM memory
|
||
* NVIDIA RTX 3070 / NVIDIA RTX 3080 / NVIDIA RTX 4090
|
||
* Ubuntu 22.04
|
||
|
||
>[!NOTE]
|
||
> Ubuntu version 22.04 is required, the Unreal Engine 5.3 version of CARLA will not work on Ubuntu 20.04 or lower.

Building CARLA with Unreal Engine 5.3
|
||
--------------
|
||
|
||
Clone this repository locally from GitHub:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
git clone -b ue5-dev https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla.git CarlaUE5
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then run the setup script:
|
||
|
||
Linux:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
cd CarlaUE5
|
||
./Setup.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Windows:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
cd CarlaUE5
|
||
Setup.bat
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This will download and install Unreal Engine 5.3, install the prerequisite requirements and build and launch CARLA. It may take some time to complete and use a significant amount of disk space. For further instructions on building in Linux can be found [here][buildlinuxlink] and the instructions for building in Windows can be found [here][buildwindowslink].
