RealityKit Instanced Rendering on visionOS
Hello, I've been trying to leverage instanced rendering in RealityKit on visionOS but have not had success. RealityKit states this is supported: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/validating-usd-files https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10075/?time=1373 https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10099/?time=772 RealityKit Trace metrics Validating instancing is working: To test I made a base visionOS app with immersive space and the entity replaced with my test usdz file. I've been using the RealityKit Trace profiling template in xcode instruments in the immersive space and volume closed. This gets consistent draw call results. If I have a single sphere mesh with one material I get one draw call, but the number of draw calls grows linearly with mesh count no matter how my entity is configured. What I've tried Create a test scene in blender, export with instancing enabled Create a test scene in Reality Composer Pro using references Author usda files by hand based on the OpenUSD spec Programatically create a MeshResource with Contents at runtime References https://openusd.org/release/api/_usd__page__scenegraph_instancing.html https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/meshresource https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/meshresource/instance Thank you
