Issue Description

Hello all, I am trying to load the default simulation environment of TurtleBot3 by using the command:
ros2 launch nav2 bringup tb3 simulation launch.py

However, only partial simulation environment is loaded. I tried several times but no success. I can not see the robot in simulation and other models are also not loaded like surrounding objects.

Due to which the Rviz is also not working properly.

Should I download the models manually? If yes, could you please share the names models which are loaded to the simulation, and from where should I download them? Since i cant see their names clearly in image.
@nrasulnrasul @Juancams @jmguerreroh Could you please have a look at it?

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: [e.g. Ubuntu 20.04]
• ROS2 Distro [Foxy]

Hi @ibrahimqazi

Can you confirm that you have the following package installed?

sudo apt install ros-foxy-turtlebot3*

Also, check if you have the following lines in your bashrc:

export TURTLEBOT3_MODEL=waffle
export GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH=$GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH:/opt/ros/foxy/share/turtlebot3_gazebo/models
