Looking for UAV_Scenes.zip including ObstacleCourse.exe or CityBlock.exe

Hello,

I am currently studying drone simulation and control using Simulink and UAV Toolbox. In order to implement altitude-based (Z-direction) obstacle avoidance, I would like to use a 3D scene such as ObstacleCourse.exe or CityBlock.exe.

However, it seems that the original zip file (e.g., UAV_Scenes.zip) including these executable maps is no longer available on MathWorks File Exchange. If anyone has previously downloaded this package, I would deeply appreciate it if you could share the files or provide guidance on how to obtain them.

My environment: MATLAB R2024a, UAV Toolbox, Simulink, Simulink 3D Animation.

Thank you very much in advance!

Hello!

When you use the Simulation 3D Scene Configuration block, under "Default Scenes", the US City Block should be one of the scenes available - do you not see this option?

When you say "executable maps", what file format are you referring to exactly?

Hi Nishan, thank you for your reply.

Yes, I’m aware that I can use the default scenes like “US City Block” by selecting [Scene source: Default Scenes] in the Simulation 3D Scene Configuration block.

However, in this case I’m specifically looking for executable map files (e.g., ObstacleCourse.exe or CityBlock.exe) that were previously provided by MathWorks in a package like "UAV_Scenes.zip". These are intended for use with [Scene source: Unreal Executable].

By “executable map,” I mean a standalone `.exe` file built using Unreal Engine that Simulink can connect to at runtime.

Since this package is no longer available on File Exchange, I’m hoping someone might still have a copy and be willing to share it or suggest how to obtain it.

Thank you!

Hi!

I'm not aware of any UAV_Scenes.zip provided in the past that included those files as executables.

We do have support packages that provide the Unreal Engine project containing the US City Block map that you can use to generate your own executable.
