Hi, In the downloadable WWDC sample project "CreatingASpaceshipGame" there is an audio file named "WorkMusic.aiff", as well mentioned in the video. Info says it's PCM 4-channel Quadrophonic. Where can I find further information on how this file was authored? Was it simply exported from Logic Pro with Quadrophonic Surround settings or did it have any other specific treatment? Thanks, Axel

Reality Composer Pro question related to custom components My custom component defines some properties to edit in RCP. Simple ones work find, but SIMD3 and SIMD2 do not. I'd expect to see default values but instead I get this 0s. If I try to run this the scene doesn't load. Once I enter some values it does and build and run again it works fine. More generally, does Apple have documentation on creating properties for components? The only examples I've seen show simple strings and floats. There are no details about vectors, conditional options, grouping properties, etc. public struct EntitySpawnerComponent: Component, Codable { public enum SpawnShape: String, Codable { case domeUpper case domeLower case sphere case box case plane case circle } // These prooerties get their default values in RCP /// The number of clones to create public var Copies: Int = 12 /// The shape to spawn entities in public var SpawnShape: SpawnShape = .domeUpper /// Radius for spherical shapes (dome, sphere, circle) public var Radius: Float = 5.0 // These properties DO NOT get their default values in RCP. The all show 0 /// Dimensions for box spawning (width, height, depth) public var BoxDimensions: SIMD3<Float> = SIMD3(2.0, 2.0, 2.0) /// Dimensions for plane spawning (width, depth) public var PlaneDimensions: SIMD2<Float> = SIMD2(2.0, 2.0) /// Track if we've already spawned copies public var HasSpawned: Bool = false public init() { } }

Hello! https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/762763 I read this thread, and this is similar to what I'm trying to do. I have two entities in the scene, "HandTrackingEntity", "HandScanner". "HandTrackingEntity": I put Anchoring Component, Collision Component (Trigger) here. "HandScanner": I put Behaviors Component(OnCollision), and Collision Component here. Here is the pictures how I set the components. and I set physicsSimulation property to .none. I was expecting that Timeline will be played when I put my hand(with HandTrackingEntity) on "HandScanner" entity. But it didn't work. Am I missing some steps? And I need sample codes to understand how to apply 'physicsSimulation' property. I'd appreciate it if you could let me know about it.

Hi everyone, I’m working on a project in Reality Composer Pro, and I’ve encountered an issue with vertex animations. Here’s what I’ve done: I created a model in Blender, which includes two animations: One that scales the vertices of the model. Another that moves the model's position. I imported both animations into Reality Composer Pro, and the position animation works fine, but the vertex scaling animation does not seem to work. What I’m Trying to Achieve: I want the vertex scaling animation to play correctly in Reality Composer Pro alongside the movement animation. Problem: The position animation works as expected, but the vertex scaling animation does not work when applied in Reality Composer Pro. I have checked the vertex scaling animation in other software, and it works fine there. The issue seems to be specific to Reality Composer Pro. Is vertex animation scaling supported in Reality Composer Pro? If so, what might be causing this issue? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

I am currently developing a game that runs on VisionOS using RealityKit and Swift. I have a question regarding particle emitters. It seems that there is a sorting order (render queue) between particle emitters themselves, but there doesn’t appear to be a render queue between particle emitters and regular model entities. If such a feature exists, could you please provide a simple example? Thank you!

Hi! I wanna ask that if it's possible to make mirror material with Shader Graph in Reality Composer Pro. The mirror should reflect entities in Reality Composer Pro scene. I found that it works with SceneKit, but I'm using RealityKitContent in my project. Are there ways to solve this?

Hello! I’ve got a USDZ export from Maya pipeline working with animation, and they load up nicely in the Vision Pro. I’ve been checking out the animated sample files in the Augmented Reality/Quick Loop sample page, specifically, the first three at the top of the page. I would like to know how they are created. I’m a 3d modeler and animator, not a programmer, so dipping my toe in RCP and Xcode/SwiftUI, but could used some informative tutorials for proper workflow. For example, in the Lunar Rover sample, there are lines emanating from the model, then text windows appear. Would I need to create all these extras inside Reality Composer Pro? I’d like to start creating immersive, narrative experiences (both in a volume, and fully immersive) but for prototyping, I want to learn the proper way to add this type of functionality. I think I remember seeing something to do with “schemas” involved. I’m assuming there might be some coding to setup in RCP for when items are selected, then an associated animation is triggered. Can anyone point me towards the relevant documentation to help me get started? Remember, I don’t code. ;) Here are my recent Vision Pro experimentations. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCH753rZ9r6eqXxpIemaSlcyYxjFgR210&si=P_7AY2aL97Upm61i I’m also proficient with Unreal Engine, but getting content packaged and over to AVP is still not ready for prime time, so i’m exploring the native approach. Thanks for helping point me in the right direction!

Hi, every one! I'm trying to bind timeline(animation + audio) and behaviors on an entity in reality composer pro. In xcode, I need to clone this entity and use the behavior, but I found that the behaviors are not clone(send notification but not received by reality composer pro and not execute the timeline). How can I solve this problem? Thanks!

Hello! Currently watching the Envision the Future: Build great apps for visionOS" webinar, and lots of questions coming up. Thx for offering this online! For those of us with "VR legs", how can we go about setting up custom hand/finger gestures that would enable us to add the functionality for teleporting and navigating within our fully Immersive environments? Both smooth, and snap turn/teleport options would be great, thx! This is adjacent to my previous question on how to setup a PS5 controller to do something similar. Think Half-Life: ALYX as the gold standard for VR navigation.

I recently completed a freelance project where I was tasked with creating room-scale environments that could be used as AR elements. As a bonus, I suggested that these could be done to scale, and repurposed for eventual viewing in Vision Pro. To illustrate, I was able to quickly create a simple Immersive project in Xcode, add the USDZ file (authored in Maya, with baked lighting from Arnold) to Reality Composer Pro, and compile for quick sending to headset. I then would do screen recordings inside the immersive space, which the client loved to see. However, I am unable to walk around due to the boundary limitations. My next obvious thought is, how can I setup the “player” camera so that I can control with a PS5 controller inside AVP? In addition to Maya, I’m an Unreal Engine artist, and have been waiting patiently to get any projects compiled for AVP. With 5.5 release, I was able to get a VR Template test over to AVP, where I have rudimentary navigation control via the PS5 controller. Ideally, I’d also love to learn how to set this up natively, so I can take simple USDZ scenes created in Maya, import to RCP, setup a simple camera controller, and then be able to use this to navigate my VR Immersive spaces on Vision Pro. How can we go about doing this? Part two of this question/suggestion is, how would I go about controlling a rigged, animated character in AR/passthrough mode in a similar fashion? Thx!

I created a custom component for composer pro in which I have several variables I need an entity to have. The idea is to add this component to some 3d models and save them as usdz’s then I load these usdz’s in code and do specific things depending on these variables. The component shows up in composer fine and I can set variables there. The problem is that the values I set in composer are different that what is shown in code. lets say in composer I set canMove = true. then when I read in code is set to false. I don’t know if I’m missing something public struct MyObjectComponent: Component, Codable { public var affectAll: Bool = false public var affectFloor: Bool = false public var canMove: Bool = false public var moveX: Bool = false public var moveY: Bool = false public var moveZ: Bool = false public var canRotate: Bool = false public var rotateX: Bool = false public var rotateY: Bool = false public var rotateZ: Bool = false public init() { } } Any help appreciated.

I have a RealityView displaying a Reality Composer Pro scene in window. Things are generally working fine, but the content seems to be appearing in front of and blocking the VisionOS window, rather than being contained inside it. Do I need to switch to a volumetric view for this to work? My scene simply contains a flat display which renders 3D content (it has a material that sends different imagery to each eye).

If I put an alpha image texture on a model created in Blender and run it on RCP or visionOS, the rendering between the front and back due to alpha will result in an unintended rendering. Details are below. I expor ted a USDC file of a Blender-created cylindrical object wit h a PNG (wit h alpha) texture applied to t he inside, and t hen impor ted it into Reality Composer Pro. When multiple objects t hat make extensive use of transparent textures are placed in front of and behind each ot her, t he following behaviors were obser ved in t he transparent areas ・The transparent areas do not become transparent ・The transparent areas become transparent toget her wit h t he image behind t hem the order of t he images becomes incorrect Best regards.

I use this piece of code in Unity to get the distance length of my model entering another model. I have set collision markers at the tip and end of the model and performed raycasting, but Unity currently does not support object tracking in VisionOS. Therefore, I plan to use SwiftUI for native development. In Reality Composer Pro, I haven't seen a collision editing feature like in Unity; I can only set the size of the collision body but cannot manually adjust or visualize the shape and size of my collision body. I want to achieve similar functionality using SwiftUI, to be able to calculate and display the distance that my model A, like a needle or ruler, penetrates into another model or a physical object's interior. Is there a similar functionality available, or other coding methods to achieve this? void CalculateLengthInsideOrgan() { // Direction from the base of the probe to the tip Vector3 direction = probeTip.position - probeBase.position; float probeLength = direction.magnitude; // Raycasting RaycastHit[] hits = Physics.RaycastAll(probeBase.position, direction, probeLength, organLayerMask); if (hits.Length > 0) { // Calculate the length entering the organ float distanceToFirstHit = hits[0].distance; lengthInsideOrgan = probeLength - distanceToFirstHit; } else { lengthInsideOrgan = 0f; } }

I created a project using Reality Composer Pro. When I export to a .usdz file, it works well on iPhone 13, 14, 15, and 16 but not on iPhone 12 and 11. In the timeline, I use a behaviour that is on added to scene to active intro animation and loop background audio. But it does not work on old device like iPhone 12 and 11. Also, all interactive taps/touch points/audio don't seem to work too. Iphone 13,14,15,16 is on ios 18.1. iPhone 11, 12 is on ios 17.6.1. Here is sample usdz file exported from REality Composer Pro 2.0 that has problem above: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sHZn9JABTswLq2flYjToTbWDuE5T7eNw/view?usp=sharing

Hi! I'm using timeline in Reality Composer Pro. I tried to enable entities that were disabled at the beginning of the scene to be enabled in the middle of the Timeline playback using the 'Enable Entities'. But it didn't work well as I imagined. (It was keep appearing before starting Timeline) How do I solve this problem? Are there good solutions about it?

ShaderGraph NodeGraph

Hi! Im making project with Xcode and Reality Composer Pro. I'm trying to play timeline in Reality Composer Pro using codes without setting Behaviors on entities. And I also tried to send notification from Xcode to entities in Reality Composer Pro to play timeline(I already set "OnNotification" with Behaviors component). But it's not working well, and I couldn't figure out any problems. Are there solutions about it?

We are developing a mixed reality app for Vision Pro using Reality Composer Pro, but we're consistently encountering a Protobuf-related crash whenever we enter the immersive space. Our Reality Composer Pro package is quite complex, with numerous objects. Could the complexity of the package be contributing to the issue, or could something else be at play? No errors are being flagged in the code or Reality Composer itself. Here’s the error log: [libprotobuf FATAL /Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/REKit/ThirdParty/protobuf/src/google/protobuf/io/zero_copy_stream_impl_lite.cc:276] CHECK failed: (count) &gt;= (0): libc++abi: terminating due to uncaught exception of type google::protobuf::FatalException: CHECK failed: (count) &gt;= (0): Any insight on what might be causing this would be appreciated.

I am new here, my name is Axel - Hi! 👋 I am both a visionOS beginner and an expert in things 3D, now figuring my way into Reality Composer Pro. Most things are intuitive and easy to understand, yet there is one thing I cannot seem to figure out, and I feel really stupid because it must be there, and that's Keyframing: I would simply make a new Timeline and animate published parameters in a Shader Graph over time. I know how to do this via Xcode and Custom Components, but that can't be it because that will break even on simple to medium animation in terms of previewing and fine-tuning, complete overkill for a simple value animation. Since key framing is the most basic functionality of 3D apps next to move, I am sure it is in RCP somewhere. Anyone got a pointer for me?
