Hello! Brand new to the Apple developer community, so, hello everyone! I'm a game developer, we just launched our first game on PC and I'm looking to port it to ios. Time is something I'm kind of short on, and I hear it takes some jumping through hoops to get the know-how to port something to mobile. Any good sites you'd recommend for finding programmers to port your game? It's fairly simple - just a visual novel. Any and all suggestions welcome! All the best! Elijah

Hi all, I have been trying to get Apple's assistive touch's snap to item to work for a unity game built using Apple's Core & Accessibility API. The switch control recognises these buttons however, eye tracking will not snap to them. The case in which it needs to snap is when an external eye tracking device is connected and utilises assistive touch & assistive touch's snap to item. All buttons in the game have a AccessibilityNode with the trait 'Button' on them & an appropriate label, which, following the documentation and comments on the developer forum, should allow them to be recognised by snap to item. This is not the case, devices (iPads and iPhones) do not recognise the buttons as a snap to target. Does anyone know why this is the case, and if this is a bug?

I am trying to create an empty metadata, and set the HDRGainMapHeadroom at ***. However the final returned mutableMetadata doesn't contain the HDRGainMap:HDRGainMapVersion or HDRGainMap:HDRGainMapHeadroom. But iio:hasXMP exist. why? Is that the reason that the namespace HDRGainMap is private? func createHDRGainMapMetadata(version: Int, headroom: Double) -> CGImageMetadata? { // Create a mutable metadata object let mutableMetadata = CGImageMetadataCreateMutable() // Define the namespace for HDRGainMap let namespace = "HDRGainMap" let xmpKeyPath = "iio:hasXMP" let xmpValue = String(true) // Set the HDRGainMapVersion item let versionKeyPath = "\(namespace):HDRGainMapVersion" let versionValue = String(version) // Set the version value let xmpSetResult = CGImageMetadataSetValueWithPath(mutableMetadata, nil, xmpKeyPath as CFString, xmpValue as CFString) if xmpSetResult == false { print("Failed to set xmp") } // Set the version value let versionSetResult = CGImageMetadataSetValueWithPath(mutableMetadata, nil, versionKeyPath as CFString, versionValue as CFString) if versionSetResult == false { print("Failed to set HDRGainMapVersion") } // Set the HDRGainMapHeadroom item let headroomKeyPath = "\(namespace):HDRGainMapHeadroom" let headroomValue = String(headroom) // Set the headroom value let headroomSetResult = CGImageMetadataSetValueWithPath(mutableMetadata, nil, headroomKeyPath as CFString, headroomValue as CFString) if headroomSetResult == false { print("Failed to set HDRGainMapHeadroom") } return mutableMetadata }

1.Open the DingTalk macOS application, start a meeting, and initiate screen sharing. 2.The DingTalk app calls the [SCShareableContent getShareableContentWithCompletionHandler:] API. 3.The API takes over 40+ seconds to return a response.

Dobrý den, koupil jsem si IPhone 13 a na displeji přesně uprostřed tlačítka hlasitosti (+) je tečka. Vypadá to jako kdyby to byla nějaká funkce či co, ale na nic jsem nepřišel. Nevím jestli je to vada nebo ne.

I am making a SpriteKit game and I am trying to change the cursor image from the default pointer to a png image that I have imported into the project, but it’s not really working. when I run the project I can see the cursor image change for a brief second and then return to the default image. Here is my code: print(NSCursor.current) if let image = NSImage(named: customImage) {      print("The image exists")      cursor = NSCursor(image: image, hotSpot: .zero)      cursor.push()      print(cursor) } print(NSCursor.current) The above code is all contained in the didMove(:) function in GameScene. From the print statements I can see that the memory address of the NSCursor.current changes to that of cursor. HOWEVER, in the mouseMoved(:) call back function I print out the mouse location and the current cursor. I can see from these print stamens that the cursor memory address has again changed and no longer matches the custom cursor address… so I am not sure what is going on… Also, fyi the cursor is a global property within game scene so it should persist. Also, image is not nil. This is verified by the print statements I see Thanks

__builtin_ia32_cvtb2mask512() is the GNU C builtin for vpmovb2m k, zmm. The Intel intrinsic for it is _mm512_movepi8_mask. It extracts the most-significant bit from each byte, producing an integer mask. The SSE2 and AVX2 instructions pmovmskb and vpmovmskb do the same thing for 16 or 32-byte vectors, producing the mask in a GPR instead of an AVX-512 mask register. (_mm_movemask_epi8 and _mm256_movemask_epi8). I would like an implementation for ARM that is faster than below I would like an implementation for ARM NEON I would like an implementation for ARM SVE I have attached a basic scalar implementation in C. For those trying to implement this in ARM, we care about the high bit, but each byte's high bit (in a 128bit vector), can be easily shifted to the low bit using the ARM NEON intrinsic: vshrq_n_u8(). Note that I would prefer not to store the bitmap to memory, it should just be the return value of the function similar to the following function. #define _(n) __attribute((vector_size(1<<n),aligned(1))) typedef char V _(6); // 64 bytes, 512 bits typedef unsigned long U; #undef _ U generic_cvtb2mask512(V v) { U mask=0;int i=0; while(i<64){ // shift mask by 1 and OR with MSB of v[i] byte mask=(mask<<1)|((v[i]&0x80)>>7); i++;} return mask; } This is also a dup of : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79225312

There is a Android Dynamic Performance Framework, https://developer.android.com/games/optimize/adpf which allows you to monitor device's thermal state and send performance hints to the OS, describing current workload. This helps to consume resources effectively, while having target performance. As I can see from tracing and profiling, hints help OS scheduler to switch tasks between cores more effectively - this helps to reach performance stability between multiple runs. I wonder, is there anything similar for iOS platform?

Hi, I have a full screen iOS game. In the Simulator, preferredScreenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures works well to prevent a drag down from the top of the full-screen play area from immediately opening the Notification Center. (You got a tab, and had to swipe down on it.) But at least on my device, when testing, unlike in Simulator, Notification Center opens immediately when I swipe down from the top. Any suggestions?

I have a Mac Studio 2023 M2 Max Running Sonoma 14.6.1 Developing in XCode 16.1 It seems that the NSScreen frame settings may be incorrect. The frame settings received from NSScreen.screens don't seem to match up with the Desktop arrangement settings in the Settings. Apologies in advance for this long post! for screen in NSScreen.screens { let name = screen.localizedName Globals.logger.debug("Globals initializeScreens - screen \(i) '\(name, privacy: .public)'") Globals.logger.debug("Globals initializeScreens - '\(screen.debugDescription, privacy: .public)'") } This is what I receive in the log: Globals initializeScreens - '<NSScreen: 0x600000ef4240; name="PHL 346E2C"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{0, 0}, {3440, 1440}}; visibleFrame={{0, 0}, {3440, 1415}}>' Globals initializeScreens - screen 2 'Blackmagic (1)' Globals initializeScreens - '<NSScreen: 0x600000ef42a0; name="Blackmagic (1)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{-3840, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{-3840, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' Globals initializeScreens - screen 3 'Blackmagic (4)' Globals initializeScreens - '<NSScreen: 0x600000ef4360; name="Blackmagic (4)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{-1920, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{-1920, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' Globals initializeScreens - screen 4 'Blackmagic (2)' Globals initializeScreens - '<NSScreen: 0x600000ef43c0; name="Blackmagic (2)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{5360, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{5360, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' Globals initializeScreens - screen 5 'Blackmagic (3)' Globals initializeScreens - '<NSScreen: 0x600000ef4420; name="Blackmagic (3)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{3440, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{3440, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' It looks like the frame settings for Blackmagic (2) and Blackmagic (4) are switched. The setup has five monitors. Four are using the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapters. The output for these are streamed into a rack of A/V equipment using BlackMagic Design mini converters and monitors. My Swift application allows users to open four movies, one for each of the AV Adapters. The movies can then be played back in sync for later processing by the A/V equipment. Here are some screen captures that show my display settings. Blackmagic (1) and Blackmagic (2) are to the left of the main screen. Blackmagic (3) and Blackmagic(4) are to the right of the main screen. The desktop is hard to see but is correct. The wallpaper settings are all correct. The wallpaper is correctly ordered when displayed on the monitors. After opening the movies and using the NSScreen frame settings, the displays are incorrectly ordered. Test B and Test D are switched, which is what I would expect given the NSScreen frame values. Any ideas? I've tried re-arranging the desktops, rebooting, etc. but no luck. The code that changes the screen location is similar to this post on Stack Overflow public func setDisplay( screen: NSScreen ) { Globals.logger.log("MovieWindowController - setDisplay = \(screen.localizedName, privacy: .public)") Globals.logger.debug("MovieWindowController - setDisplay - '\(screen.debugDescription, privacy: .public)'") let dx = CGFloat(Constants.midX) let dy = CGFloat(Constants.midY) var pos = NSPoint() pos.x = screen.visibleFrame.midX - dx pos.y = screen.visibleFrame.midY - dy Globals.logger.debug("MovieWindowController - setDisplay - x = '\(pos.x, privacy: .public)', y = '\(pos.y, privacy: .public)'") window?.setFrameOrigin(pos) } The log show just what I would expect given the incorrect frame values. MovieWindowController - setDisplay = Blackmagic (1) MovieWindowController - setDisplay - '<NSScreen: 0x6000018e8420; name="Blackmagic (1)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{-3840, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{-3840, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' MovieWindowController - setDisplay - x = '-3840.000000', y = '-12.500000' MovieWindowController - setDisplay = Blackmagic (2) MovieWindowController - setDisplay - '<NSScreen: 0x6000018a10e0; name="Blackmagic (2)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{5360, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{5360, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' MovieWindowController - setDisplay - x = '5360.000000', y = '-12.500000' MovieWindowController - setDisplay = Blackmagic (3) MovieWindowController - setDisplay - '<NSScreen: 0x6000018cc8a0; name="Blackmagic (3)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{3440, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{3440, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' MovieWindowController - setDisplay - x = '3440.000000', y = '-12.500000' MovieWindowController - setDisplay = Blackmagic (4) MovieWindowController - setDisplay - '<NSScreen: 0x6000018c9ce0; name="Blackmagic (4)"; backingScaleFactor=1.000000; frame={{-1920, 0}, {1920, 1080}}; visibleFrame={{-1920, 0}, {1920, 1055}}>' MovieWindowController - setDisplay - x = '-1920.000000', y = '-12.500000' Am I correct? I think this is driving me crazy! Thanks in advance! Edit: The mouse behavior is correct in moving across the displays!

I’m trying to build my project using Unreal Engine 5.4 for iOS. I use SocketIO to connect to the backend. The plugin SocketIOClient version 2.8.0, is used for this. When trying to connect to the socket, a crash occurs. This only happens on iOS, only in Distribution builds, and only on Unreal 5.4. There are no problems on Unreal 5.2. Callstack: crashlog.crash The callstack may be slightly different, but the problem is always when allocating or deallocating memory. I suspect that this may be a race condition and is related to some peculiarities of working with memory on iOS. There are also several similar issues in the plugin repository, for example this one. I tried using other versions of plugin, other versions of xcode, tried to build socket io using both c++20 and c++17, nothing helps. Does anyone know what can be done about this?

I plan to create a simple motion graphics software for macOS that animates text, basic shapes, and handles audio. I'll use SwiftUI for the UI. What are the commonly used technologies for rendering animated graphics? Core Animation is suitable for UI animations but not for exporting and controlling UI animations. Basic requirements: Timeline user interface Animation of text and basic shapes Viewer in SwiftUI GUI with transport control (play, pause, scrub, …) Export to video file Is Metal or Core Graphics typically used directly? I want to keep it as simple as possible.

Dear Apple Support Team, I recently purchased an iPad Pro 2022 and updated it to iOS 18.2. However, I am experiencing an issue while using Call of Duty Mobile. The Game Mode activates randomly and sometimes does not activate at all. Additionally, when the Game Mode is on, the game crashes unexpectedly, causing an unstable experience. I kindly request that you address this issue in upcoming iOS updates. Thank you for your attention and support. Best regards, [samadBg]

I want to implement the ability to apply Lightroom Preset (.xmp file) to an image in my app, but am running into difficulties. How can I configure things like color grading, curve, etc. in Swift?

Hi guys! Is there any way to get a frame at certain time? I'm writing plug-in and want to use 2 frames before and 2 frames after current frame in order to render final image.

I am trying to install the game-porting-toolkit using brew -v install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit but this fails each time because of a dependency on a deprecated openssl version: Fetching dependencies for apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit: cmake, ninja, apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit-compiler, openssl1.1 ... ... Error: openssl@1.1 has been disabled because it is not supported upstream! It was disabled on 2024-10-24. Is there a way to override this dependency or use a newer version of openssl for the check?

I tried using the GameController APIs for this, but they didn't seem to work. Is that the recommended API for handling keyboard/mouse? The notifications for mouse and keyboard connect/disconnect don't seem to be defined for visionOS. The visionOS 2.0 touts keyboard and mouse support. The simulator can even forward keyboard/mouse to the app. But there don't seem to be any sample code of how to programatically receive either of these. The game controller works fine (on device, not on Simulator).

I want to know why there is no video frame data when RePlaykit enters the background and then enters the foreground?

For some reason I can't disable the Graphics HUD. Not really a problem for development, but it's also showing in Testflight apps. For example when swiping down on the keyboard but also in some other places. Of course I tried disabling the toggle, but even when it's off the HUD is still showing. Even completely disabling Developer mode does not work. Is this a known issue? I already scrolled through possibly every Google search result but I can't figure out how to solve this.
