I tried running this project by marco Exploring ROS using a 2 wheeled robot

but in the new version there are many errors coming. If someone can please help me run it I would be very grateful. The files are all there just need some help in running them correctly in the new version.
Thank You

Hi @kroy1200 ,

Could you be more specific about which video you have been trying?
I’d be glad to help you on that!

You may need a launch file that starts the world with the robot, because in the old version of ROSDS, we had the simulation already running.

In case it helps you, check the file below I’ve just created:

<launch>  

  <arg name="robot" default="machines"/>

  <arg name="debug" default="false"/>

  <arg name="gui" default="true"/>

  <arg name="headless" default="false"/>

  <arg name="pause" default="false"/>

  <arg name="world" default="world02" />

  <include file="$(find gazebo_ros)/launch/empty_world.launch">

    <!-- <arg name="world_name" value="$(find my_worlds)/worlds/$(arg world).world"/> -->

    <arg name="debug" value="$(arg debug)" />

    <arg name="gui" value="$(arg gui)" />

    <arg name="paused" value="$(arg pause)"/>

    <arg name="use_sim_time" value="true"/>

    <arg name="headless" value="$(arg headless)"/>

    <env name="GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH" value="$(find simulation_gazebo)/models:$(optenv GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH)"/>

  </include>

  <include file="$(find m2wr_description)/launch/spawn.launch">

      <arg name="y" value="8" />

  </include>

<!--  Include launch.xml if needed -->

</launch>

Please, let me know if it helps you

Regards
