Hello All - I'm receiving .usdz files from a client. When previewing the .usdz file in Reality Converter - the materials show up as expected. But when I load the .usdz in Reality Composer Pro, all the materials show up as grey. I've attached an image of the errors I'm get inside Reality Converter, to help trouble shoot. What steps can I take to get these materials working in my Reality Composer Pro project? Thanks!

I have two pictures, one render only in left screen and one render only in right screen. What should I do . in vision pro

Hello all, I am building for visionOS with another engineer and using Reality Composer Pro to validate usd files. The starting position of my animated usdz, its position when it's first loaded, is not the same as the first frame of the animation on the usdz file For testing, I am using the AR Quick Look asset 'toy_biplane_idle.usdz' which demonstrates the same 'error' we're currently getting with our own usdz files. When the usdz is loaded, it is on the ground plane - But when the aniamtion is played, the plane 'snaps' to the position of the first frame of the animation - This 'snapping' behavior is giving us problems. We want the user ot see this plane in its static 'load' position with the option to play the animation. But we dont want it to snap when the user presses play Is it possible to load the .usdz in the position specified by the first frame of the animation? What is the best way to fix this issue. Thanks!

device.supportsRaytracing can be used to check if the device supports Raytracing. It seems most of the devices support Raytracing. However, only M3 and iPhone 15 Pro supports hardware Raytracing. How do I check programmatically if a device supports hardware Raytracing? Thank you.

Hi, I have a MacBook Pro with an Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640, which gives maximum 4.1 OpenGL context. Thus, I would like to use Mesa as an alternative for getting higher contexes e.g. 4.5 or 4.6. I don’t care about performance in this phase. I have built Mesa with LLVM (llvm-config… etc…) but even by placing the built libGL.dylib in the same folder with executable or setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH or DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES, I am not able to get the Mesa renderer. Does Apple support this overriding of libGL with a custom one? Any help/guidance would be really appreciated. Thanks

when I try to import MetalFX in visionOS, Xcode show error : No such module 'MetalFX' , but the document show visionOS is supported

Hi, i am required to upload my CFD simulation results to the new vision pro glasses. This simulation shall be visible as a soft VR/AR object in the room. I am very new to the developer world. Could someone give me a hint which IDE, tool etc. to use for this task? SwiftUI, swift, visionOS, Xcode, ... ???? After I know what IDE/tool/language to use, I will start learning courses with it. Thanks a lot!!

Hi everyone I'm making a small private app for my one of my engineering projects, a part of this app shows a 3D model of what it looks like in real life based on a position value of a joint that needs to be updated in real time. I was able import a USDZ of the exact model of the project, and make the proper nodes that can rotate, however I run into a problem where SceneKit takes forever to update the node, I'm not sure if my code just needs optimizing or SceneKit is just not the framework to use when needing things in a 3D model to be updated in real time I've confirmed that the device receives the values in realtime, it is just SceneKit that doesn't update the model in time I'm not very good at explaining things so I put as much detail as I possibly can and hope my problem is clear, I'm also pretty new to swift and iOS development. Here is the code I'm using import SwiftUI import SceneKit struct ModelView2: UIViewRepresentable { @State private var eulerAngle: Float = 0.0 @StateObject var service = BluetoothService() let sceneView = SCNView() func makeUIView(context: Context) -> SCNView { if let scene = SCNScene(named: "V4.usdz") { sceneView.scene = scene if let meshInstanceNode = scene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "MeshInstance", recursively: true), let meshInstance1Node = scene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "MeshInstance_1", recursively: true), let meshInstance562Node = scene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "MeshInstance_562", recursively: true) { // Rotate mesh instance around its own axis /* meshInstance562Node.eulerAngles = SCNVector3(x: 0, y: -0.01745329 * service.posititonValue, z: 0) */ print(meshInstance562Node.eulerAngles) } } sceneView.allowsCameraControl = true sceneView.autoenablesDefaultLighting = true return sceneView } func updateUIView(_ uiView: SCNView, context: Context) { if let scene = SCNScene(named: "V4.usdz") { sceneView.scene = scene if let meshInstanceNode = scene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "MeshInstance", recursively: true), let meshInstance1Node = scene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "MeshInstance_1", recursively: true), let meshInstance562Node = scene.rootNode.childNode(withName: "MeshInstance_562", recursively: true) { let boundingBox = meshInstance562Node.boundingBox let pivot = SCNMatrix4MakeTranslation( boundingBox.min.x + (boundingBox.max.x - boundingBox.min.x) / 2, boundingBox.min.y + (boundingBox.max.y - boundingBox.min.y) / 2, boundingBox.min.z + (boundingBox.max.z - boundingBox.min.z) / 2 ) meshInstance562Node.pivot = pivot meshInstance562Node.addChildNode(meshInstanceNode) meshInstance562Node.addChildNode(meshInstance1Node) var original = SCNMatrix4Identity original = SCNMatrix4Translate(original, 182.85785, 123.54999, 17.857864) // Translate along the Y-axis meshInstance562Node.transform = original print(service.posititonValue) var buffer: Float = 0.0 if service.posititonValue != buffer { meshInstance562Node.eulerAngles = SCNVector3(x: 0, y: -0.01745329 * service.posititonValue, z: 0) buffer = service.posititonValue } } } } func rotateNodeInPlace(node: SCNNode, duration: TimeInterval, angle: Float) { // Create a rotation action let rotationAction = SCNAction.rotateBy(x: 0, y: CGFloat(angle), z: 0, duration: duration) // Repeat the rotation action indefinitely // let repeatAction = SCNAction.repeatForever(rotationAction) // Run the action on the node node.runAction(rotationAction) print(node.transform) } func rotate(node: SCNNode, angle: Float) { node.eulerAngles = SCNVector3(x: 0, y: -0.01745329 * angle, z: 0) } } #Preview { ModelView2() }

play a video in ImmersiveSpace， and how let ImmersiveSpace reflection the video

As I understood, the ability to use metal is only in "vr" mode. But is there any way to make a custom post-process in mixed reality mode?

I'm working in a game where I integrate matchmaker and it's working fine when I try with two devices under same wifi network, but in the moment I use 5g mobile network and I do the matchmaker, I can still see each other but the game did not start and I see error sending data to the remote player. The game is not yet published and I'm using TestFlight for the clients.

In RealityKit in visionOS 1.0 I'm perplexed that PhysicallyBasedMaterial and CustomMaterial have faceCulling properties but ShaderGraphMaterial does not. Is there some way to achieve front face culling in a shader graph without creating a separate mesh with reversed triangle vertex indices?

I have build the plugins and added to project but when I run game I am getting these errors https://github.com/apple/unityplugins EntryPointNotFoundException: AppleCore_GetRuntimeEnvironment assembly: type: member:(null) Apple.Core.Availability.OnApplicationStart () (at Library/PackageCache/com.apple.unityplugin.core@d07a9d20344c/Runtime/Availability.cs:40) EntryPointNotFoundException: GKLocalPlayer_GetLocal assembly: type: member:(null)

I am using the following code to create a texture atlas at runtime using a single .png image sprite sheet: func createSpriteTextureAtlas(atlasNumber atlas:Int, forWorld world:Int) { //load the png file let image = UIImage(named: "world\(world)_spritesheet\(atlas)_2048x2048.png") //create the dictonary var imageDictionary = [String: UIImage]() //iterate through all rows and columns and get the subimage var imageIndex = 0 for row in 0...7 { for column in 0...7 { let sourceRect = CGRect(x:column * 256, y:row * 256, width:256, height:256) let sourceImage = image?.cgImage!.cropping(to: sourceRect) let subImage = UIImage(cgImage: sourceImage!) //add the sub image and name to the dictionary imageDictionary["\(imageIndex)"] = subImage imageIndex = imageIndex + 1 } } //create the texture atlas using the dictionary spriteTextureAtlas[atlas] = SKTextureAtlas(dictionary: imageDictionary) } I have a different sprite sheet for every world. I made all the sprite sheets myself using the same tool. This code works 100% of the time for most images. For some images however, the program crashes at: SKTextureAtlas(dictionary: imageDictionary) with the error: Thread 4: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x105ff2000). The stack trace says it is crashing inside: #0 0x00000002178e2d34 in -[SKTextureAtlasPacker isFullyOpaque:] (). The crash does not happen every time and only happens for some images. The crash never happens on the simulator. Did I make a mistake inside createSpriteTextureAtlas or is this a SpriteKit bug? P.S. I already know that I can let Xcode make the texture atlas for me by using a folder with a .atlas extension but this is not what i want to do.

I'm trying to establish a connection between two devices using mobile network. The config in both devices are ok allowing use mobile data for the app. I'm able to connect and start the game with WIFI networ `// Initiate matchmaking - (void)initiateMatchmakingWithViewController:(UIViewController*)rustViewController { dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ if (![GKLocalPlayer localPlayer].isAuthenticated) { NSLog(@"Player is not authenticated."); return; } NSLog(@"Preparing MatchMaker"); GKMatchRequest *request = [[GKMatchRequest alloc] init]; request.minPlayers = 2; request.maxPlayers = 2; GKMatchmakerViewController *mmvc = [[GKMatchmakerViewController alloc] initWithMatchRequest:request]; mmvc.matchmakerDelegate = self; // Use the passed view controller to present the matchmaking UI [rustViewController presentViewController:mmvc animated:YES completion:nil]; NSLog(@"MatchMaker running...."); // Store the rustViewController for later, to revert back to it originalViewController = rustViewController; }); } // GKMatchmakerViewControllerDelegate methods - (void)matchmakerViewControllerWasCancelled:(GKMatchmakerViewController *)viewController { [originalViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil]; NSLog(@"Matchmaking was cancelled."); } - (void)matchmakerViewController:(GKMatchmakerViewController *)viewController didFailWithError:(NSError *)error { [originalViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil]; NSLog(@"Matchmaking failed with error: %@", error.localizedDescription); } - (void)matchmakerViewController:(GKMatchmakerViewController *)viewController didFindMatch:(GKMatch *)match { [originalViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil]; self.currentMatch = match; match.delegate = self; NSLog(@"Match found."); // Fetch details for each player in the match NSMutableArray<NSString *> *playerIDs = [NSMutableArray array]; for (GKPlayer *player in match.players) { [playerIDs addObject:player.playerID]; } [GKPlayer loadPlayersForIdentifiers:playerIDs withCompletionHandler:^(NSArray<GKPlayer *> *players, NSError *error) { if (error) { NSLog(@"Error retrieving player details: %@", error.localizedDescription); return; } for (GKPlayer *player in players) { if (![player.playerID isEqualToString:GKLocalPlayer.localPlayer.playerID]) { [self loadAndStoreAvatarForRemotePlayer:player]; } } }]; }` I can see how both clients are in state "connecting" but the log "Match found." it's never set. I also can see this log "[Match] syncPlayers failed to loadPlayersForLegacyIdentifiers"

I’m really sorry if this is not the proper place for this. I’m developing a game with online mode what works just fine in WiFi mode but not in mobile network. If someone has two Apple devices and can try if with the mobile network the multiplayer mode works I will appreciate A LOT https://apps.apple.com/es/app/ufo-snowboard/id6474542185

Activity monitor reports that Reality Composer Pro uses 150% CPU and always is the number one energy user on my M3 mac. Unfortunately the high cpu usage continues when the app is hidden or minimized. I can understand the high usage when a scene is visible and when interacting with the scene, but this appears to be a bug. Can anyone else confirm this or have a workaround? Can the scene processing at least be paused when app is hidden? Or better yet, find out why the cpu usage is so high when the scene is not changing. Reality Composer Pro Version 1.0 (409.60.6) on Sonoma 14.3 Thanks

I captured my office using 3D Scanner and get a USDZ file. The file contains a 3-D Model and a Physically based material. I can view the file correctly with texture on Xcode and Reality Composer Pro. But when using RealityView to present the model in immersive space. I got the model in whole black. My guess is my Material doesn't have a shader graph? Does anyone caught into similar issue? How to solve it?

Hi, I have a MBP 2023 M3 Max 64GB with 16 Core CPU ( 4 efficiency, 12 Performance) and 40C GPU. I've got a Game (Cities Skylines 2) successfully working using Whisky. However, only 4 Cores are reported to the game which leads to a situation where there are many calculations batched up while at the same time my CPU performance cores almost idle, while the efficiency cores are well utilized. I suspect this is because the game only sees 4 cores and has some logic to batch the calculations differently depending on how much cores are available. Is there a way to override how many cores the game sees? e.g. by using an environment variable or something? Thanks, Dominik
