Hello
when i launch the ros2 launch vrx_gz competition.launch.py world:=/home/usman/boat_ws/src/vrx/vrx_gz/worlds/gymkhana_task.sdf from this repo for the marine simulation GitHub - osrf/vrx: Virtual RobotX (VRX) resources.
The models (i have attached folder tree of vrx_gz as well) that are inside the vrx_gz package cannot be recognized. However if i launch the “gz sim” i can spawn the models in the simulation.
[ruby $(which ign) gazebo-1] [Err] [Server.cc:139] Error Code 13: [/sdf/world[@name=“gymkhana_task”]/include[1]/uri:/home/usman/boat_ws/src/vrx/vrx_gz/worlds/gymkhana_task.sdf:L351]: Msg: Unable to find uri[coast_waves]
similar error comes for all models that are inside this folder.
Please let me know why the gazebo cannot find these models
here is the output of echo $GZ_SIM_RESOURCE_PATH
/home/usman/boat_ws/install/wamv_description/share/wamv_description/models:/home/usman/boat_ws/install/vrx_gz/share/vrx_gz/models/tmp:/home/usman/boat_ws/install/vrx_gz/share/vrx_gz/models:/home/usman/boat_ws/install/vrx_gz/share/vrx_gz/worlds/2023_practice:/home/usman/boat_ws/install/vrx_gz/share/vrx_gz/worlds:/home/usman/boat_ws/install/vrx_gazebo/share/vrx_gazebo/models:/home/usman/boat_ws/install/vrx_gazebo/share/
here is the version of gazebo that i am using on Ubuntu 22.04 with ROS humble.
Ignition Gazebo, version 6.11.0

Hi Muhammad, did you manage to solve this already? I am currently facing the same problem with the same setup, and hope you might have found a solution
If you are interested in a docker based environment than view my post at this forum
Otherwise run the following command in the workspace
colcon build --merge-install
Source your workspace and than run the following command
ros2 launch vrx_gz competition.launch.py
The terminal will say requesting world file name. Now you need to have a internet connection connected. It will dowload some resources when you run it for the first time.
