Hi all, Wondering how I would go about creating a plugin/class to support a new (physical/hardware) device with the game controller framework? Between GCVirtualController on iOS and the "KeyboardAndMouseSupport.bundle" I see inside GameController.framework on my Mac, it looks like the framework must be designed to support this but I can't find any documentation. Thanks!

Issue When an Entity with a ViewAttachmentComponent is: disabled using isEnabled = false removed using removeFromParent() and then enabled or added back again, the attached SwiftUI view is rendered correctly, but tap interactions stop working. Specifically: Button actions inside the attached view do not fire TapGesture closures on child views do not respond Expected Behavior Tap interactions inside the attached view should continue to work after the Entity is re-enabled or re-added. Actual Behavior After being disabled or removed once, all tap interactions stop responding. Comparison When displaying the same SwiftUI view using RealityViewAttachments, this issue does not occur. Removing and re-displaying the attachment still allows taps to work correctly. Reproduction Attached sample code reproduces the issue: A RealityView with an Entity that has a ViewAttachmentComponent The attached SwiftUI view contains a Toggle The toggle updates isEnabled on the Entity After toggling off and on, tap interactions stop responding Environment Xcode 26 visionOS 26 Question Is this expected behavior of ViewAttachmentComponent, or a bug? Is there a recommended way to temporarily hide or disable an Entity with ViewAttachmentComponent without breaking tap interactions? import SwiftUI import RealityKit struct GestureTestView: View { @State var sampleEnabled = true @State var sampleEntity: Entity? var body: some View { RealityView { contents, attachments in // After deleting and re-displaying it, taps no longer respond. let sample = Entity(components: ViewAttachmentComponent(rootView: SampleView())) // Executed successfully //let sample = attachments.entity(for: "SampleView")! contents.add(sample) sample.position = [0, 1.2, -1] sampleEntity = sample let toggleButton = Entity(components: ViewAttachmentComponent(rootView: ToggleButtonView(isOn: $sampleEnabled))) contents.add(toggleButton) toggleButton.position = [0, 1, -1] } update: { _, _ in // run update closure print(sampleEnabled) // update sample entity enable sampleEntity?.isEnabled = sampleEnabled } attachments: { Attachment(id: "SampleView") { SampleView() } } } } struct ToggleButtonView: View { @Binding var isOn: Bool var body: some View { VStack { Toggle(isOn: $isOn) { Text("Toggle") } } .padding() .glassBackgroundEffect() } } struct SampleView: View { var body: some View { VStack { Button { print("Hello, World!") } label: { Text("Hello, World!") .padding() } } .padding() .glassBackgroundEffect() } } #Preview(immersionStyle: .mixed) { GestureTestView() }

Hello, I have noticed a performance drop on SpriteKit-based projects running on iOS 26.0 (23A341). Below is a SpriteKit scene used to test framerate on different devices: import SpriteKit import SwiftUI class BareboneScene: SKScene { override func didMove(to view: SKView) { size = view.bounds.size anchorPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.5, y: 0.5) backgroundColor = .darkGray let roundedSquare = SKShapeNode(rectOf: CGSize(width: 150, height: 75), cornerRadius: 12) roundedSquare.fillColor = .systemRed roundedSquare.strokeColor = .black roundedSquare.lineWidth = 3 addChild(roundedSquare) let action = SKAction.rotate(byAngle: .pi, duration: 1) roundedSquare.run(.repeatForever(action)) } } struct BareboneSceneView: View { var body: some View { SpriteView( scene: BareboneScene(), debugOptions: [.showsFPS] ) .ignoresSafeArea() } } #Preview { BareboneSceneView() } The scene is very simple, yet framerate drops to ~40 fps as shown by the Metal HUD. Tested on: iPhone 13, iOS 26.0: framerate drops to 40 fps. Sometimes it runs at near 60fps. But if the screen is touched repeatedly, the framerate drops to 40-50 fps again. iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 26.0: ~40fps. iPad 9th Gen, iOS 18.6.2: 60fps, no issues. See screenshots attached. These numbers were observed by me and members of our beloved SpriteKit Discord server. Thank you for your attention.

Hello XQuartz is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.Org X Window System (https://www.xquartz.org/), widely used to bring graphical support to applications running in remote servers (usually via SSH). Since macOS Tahoe, XQuartz fails to refresh properly on window resize (more info here https://github.com/XQuartz/XQuartz/issues/438#issuecomment-3371409500), leading to severe usability issues. The XQuartz developers are already aware of the issue, but I’m wondering if there’s anything we can do at the OS level to resolve it and restore the usual behavior from before macOS Tahoe. Thanks, KiM

Hi! I'd like to share a technical sample app, SKRenderer Demo. This app demonstrates: Setting up SKRenderer Recording SpriteKit scenes to image sequences Recording SpriteKit scenes to video using IOSurface and AVFoundation Applying Core Image filters Exploring SpriteKit's simulation timing and physics determinism Use Case Record SpriteKit simulations as video or images for sharing and creating content. I explored several approaches, including the excellent view.texture(from:crop:) for live recording from SKView. The SKRenderer approach assumes recording happens asynchronously: you capture user interactions as commands during live interaction, then replay those commands through an offline render pass to generate the final output. I hope this helps others working on replay systems, simulation capture, or SpriteKit projects in general!

I am developing a custom app for Apple Vision Pro using Compositor Services to stream content from NVIDIA Omniverse. The app is based on: https://github.com/NVIDIA-Omniverse/apple-configurator-sample Environment: Device: Apple Vision Pro OS Version: visionOS 26.2 Xcode Version: 26.2 The Issue: The application crashes hard (__abort_with_payload) in "libsystem_kernel.dylib" on Task 6 immediately after initialization. This appears to be a deliberate abort triggered by the compositor, not a typical crash. The issue occurs on both physical device and simulator. Important detail: The console output shows a specific CLIENT BUG assertion. By checking the metadata of the warning, I found that it is related to "Library: CompositorNonUI". Relevant console output before abort: Missed 'FrameLimiter' target of 90.0 Hz running compositor services to get IPD, FOV, etc fence tx observer 14f27 timed out after 0.600000 fence tx observer bc1b timed out after 0.600000 BUG IN CLIENT: For mixed reality experiences please use cp_drawable_compute_projection API

I noticed that when the render command encoder adds no draw calls an apps memory usage seems to grow unboundedly. Using a super simple MTKView-based drawing with the following delegate (code at end). If I add the simplest of draw calls, e.g., a single vertex, the app's memory usage is normal, around 100-ish MBs. I am attaching a couple screenshot, one from Xcode and one from Instruments. What's going on here? Is this an illegal program? If yes, why does it not crash, such as if the encode or command buffer weren't ended. Or is there some race condition at play here due to the lack of draws? class Renderer: NSObject, MTKViewDelegate { var device: MTLDevice var commandQueue: MTL4CommandQueue var commandBuffer: MTL4CommandBuffer var allocator: MTL4CommandAllocator override init() { guard let d = MTLCreateSystemDefaultDevice(), let queue = d.makeMTL4CommandQueue(), let cmdBuffer = d.makeCommandBuffer(), let alloc = d.makeCommandAllocator() else { fatalError("unable to create metal 4 objects") } self.device = d self.commandQueue = queue self.commandBuffer = cmdBuffer self.allocator = alloc super.init() } func mtkView(_ view: MTKView, drawableSizeWillChange size: CGSize) {} func draw(in view: MTKView) { guard let drawable = view.currentDrawable else { return } commandBuffer.beginCommandBuffer(allocator: allocator) guard let descriptor = view.currentMTL4RenderPassDescriptor, let encoder = commandBuffer.makeRenderCommandEncoder( descriptor: descriptor ) else { fatalError("unable to create encoder") } encoder.endEncoding() commandBuffer.endCommandBuffer() commandQueue.waitForDrawable(drawable) commandQueue.commit([commandBuffer]) commandQueue.signalDrawable(drawable) drawable.present() } }

[CRITICAL] Metal API Memory Leak - Heap Memory Never Released to OS (CWE-400) Security Classification This issue constitutes a resource exhaustion vulnerability (CWE-400): Aspect Details Type Uncontrolled Resource Consumption CWE CWE-400 Vector Local (any Metal application) Impact System instability, denial of service User Control None - no mitigation available Recovery Requires application restart Summary Metal heap allocations are never released back to macOS, even when the memory is entirely unused. This causes continuous, unbounded memory growth until system instability or crash. The issue affects any application using Metal API heap allocation. This was discovered in Unreal Engine 5, but reproduces in a completely blank UE5 project with zero application code - confirming this is Metal framework behavior, not application-level. Environment OS: macOS Tahoe 26.2 Hardware: Apple Silicon M4 Max (also reproduced on M1, M2, M3) API: Metal Reproduction Steps Run any Metal application that allocates and deallocates GPU buffers via Metal heaps Open Activity Monitor and observe the application's memory usage Let the application run idle (no user interaction required) Observe memory growing continuously at ~1-2 MB per second Memory never plateaus or stabilizes Eventually system becomes unstable For testing: Any Unreal Engine 5.4+ project on macOS will reproduce this. Even a blank project with no gameplay code exhibits the leak. (Tested on UE 5.7.1) Observed Behavior Memory Analysis Using Unreal's memreport -full command, two reports taken 86 seconds apart: Metric Report 1 (183s) Report 2 (269s) Delta Process Physical 4373.64 MB 4463.39 MB +89.75 MB Metal Heap Buffer 7168 MB 8192 MB +1024 MB Unused Heap 3453 MB 4477 MB +1024 MB Object Count 73,840 73,840 0 (no change) Key Finding Metal Heap grew by exactly 1 GB while "Unused Heap" also grew by 1 GB. This demonstrates: Metal is allocating new heap blocks in ~1 GB increments Previously allocated heap memory becomes "unused" but is never released The unused memory accumulates indefinitely No application-level objects are leaking (count remains constant) Memory Growth Pattern Continuous growth while idle (no user interaction) Growth rate: approximately 1-2 MB per second No plateau or stabilization occurs Metal allocates new 1 GB heap blocks rather than reusing freed space Eventually leads to system instability and crash What is NOT Causing This We verified the following are NOT the source: Application objects - Object count remains constant Application code - Blank project with no code reproduces the issue Texture streaming - Disabling texture streaming had no effect CPU garbage collection - Running GC has no effect (this is GPU memory) Mitigations Attempted (None Worked) setPurgeableState Setting resources to purgeable state before release: [buffer setPurgeableState:MTLPurgeableStateEmpty]; Result: Metal ignores this hint and does not reclaim heap memory. Avoiding Heap Pooling Forcing individual buffer allocations instead of heap-based pooling. Result: Leak persists - Metal still manages underlying allocations. Aggressive Buffer Compaction Attempting to compact/defragment buffers within heaps every frame. Result: Only moves data between existing heaps. Does NOT release heaps back to OS. Reducing Pool Sizes Minimizing all buffer pool sizes to force more frequent reuse. Result: Slightly slows the leak rate but does not stop it. Root Cause Analysis How Metal Heap Allocation Appears to Work Metal allocates GPU heap blocks in large chunks (~1 GB observed) Application requests buffers from these heaps When application releases buffers, memory becomes "unused" within the heap Metal does NOT release heap blocks back to macOS, even when entirely unused When fragmentation prevents reuse, Metal allocates new heap blocks Result: Continuous memory growth with no upper bound The Core Problem There appears to be no Metal API to force heap memory release. The only way to reclaim this memory is to destroy the Metal device entirely, which requires restarting the application. Expected Behavior Metal should: Release unused heaps - When a heap block is entirely unused, release it back to macOS Respect purgeable hints - Honor setPurgeableState calls from applications Compact allocations - Defragment heap allocations to reduce fragmentation Provide control APIs - Allow applications to request heap compaction or release Enforce limits - Have configurable maximum heap memory consumption Security Implications Local Denial of Service - Any Metal application can exhaust system memory, causing instability affecting all running applications Memory Pressure Attack - Forces other applications to swap to disk, degrading system-wide performance No Upper Bound - Memory consumption continues until system failure Unmitigable - End users have no way to prevent or limit the leak Affects All Metal Apps - Any application using Metal heaps is potentially affected Impact Applications become unstable after extended use System-wide performance degrades as memory pressure increases Users must periodically restart applications Developers cannot work around this at the application level Long-running applications (games, creative tools, servers) are particularly affected Request Investigate Metal heap memory management behavior Implement heap release when blocks become entirely unused Honor setPurgeableState hints from applications Consider providing an API for applications to request heap compaction Document any intended behavior or workarounds Additional Notes This issue has been observed across multiple Unreal Engine versions (5.4, 5.7) and multiple Apple Silicon generations (M1 through M4). The behavior is consistent and reproducible. The Unreal Engine team has implemented various CVars to attempt mitigation (rhi.Metal.HeapBufferBytesToCompact, rhi.Metal.ResourcePurgeInPool, etc.) but none successfully address the issue because the root cause is at the Metal framework level. Tested: January 2026 Platform: macOS Tahoe 26.2, Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4)

My goal is to print a debug message from a shader. I follow the guide that orders to set -fmetal-enable-logging metal compiler flag and following environment variables: MTL_LOG_LEVEL=MTLLogLevelDebug MTL_LOG_BUFFER_SIZE=2048 MTL_LOG_TO_STDERR=1 However there's an issue with the guide, it's only covers Xcode project setup, however I'm working on a Swift Package. It has a Metal-only target that's included into main target like this: targets: [ // A separate target for shaders. .target( name: "MetalShaders", resources: [ .process("Metal") ], plugins: [ // https://github.com/schwa/MetalCompilerPlugin .plugin(name: "MetalCompilerPlugin", package: "MetalCompilerPlugin") ] ), // Main target .target( name: "MegApp", dependencies: ["MetalShaders"] ), .testTarget( name: "MegAppTests", dependencies: [ "MegApp", "MetalShaders", ] ] So to apply compiler flag I use MetalCompilerPlugin which emits debug.metallib, it also allows to define DEBUG macro for shaders. This code compiles: #ifdef DEBUG logger.log_error("Hello There!"); os_log_default.log_debug("Hello thread: %d", gid); // this proves that code exectutes result.flag = true; #endif Environment is set via .xctestplan and valideted to work with ProcessInfo. However, nothing is printed to Xcode console nor to Console app. In attempt to fix it I'm trying to setup a MTLLogState, however the makeLogState(descriptor:) fails with error: if #available(iOS 18.0, *) { let logDescriptor = MTLLogStateDescriptor() logDescriptor.level = .debug logDescriptor.bufferSize = 2048 // Error Domain=MTLLogStateErrorDomain Code=2 "Cannot create residency set for MTLLogState: (null)" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Cannot create residency set for MTLLogState: (null)} let logState = try! device.makeLogState(descriptor: logDescriptor) commandBufferDescriptor.logState = logState } Some LLMs suggested that this is connected with Simulator, and truly, I run the tests on simulator. However tests don't want to run on iPhone... I found solution running them on My Mac (Mac Catalyst). Surprisingly descriptor log works there, even without MTLLogState. But the Simulator behaviour seems like a bug...

On MacBook Pro M3 14" I can profile the Metal App performance by running it, then clicking on the M icon and choosing profile after replay. On Mac Studio M2 Ultra I cannot: the profiler starts and crashes. I have tried everything including reinstalling the OS, Xcode, the Metal SDK, you name it. The app uses the Metal 4 API. The content of the replayer errorinfo report is shown at the end. Any ideas what is going on here and/or what else I can do do root cause this and fix it? FWIW, it was worse on 26.1 (Xcode just reported Metal 4 profiling not available). In 26.2 Xcode attempts to profile and invariably crashes. === Error summary: === 1x DYErrorDomain (512) - guest app crashed (512) 1x com.apple.gputools.MTLReplayer (100) - Abort trap: 6 === First Error === Domain: DYErrorDomain Error code: 512 Description: guest app crashed (512) GTErrorKeyPID: 26913 GTErrorKeyProcessName: GPUToolsReplayService GTErrorKeyCrashDate: 2026-01-09 19:22:52 +0000 === Underlying Error #1 === Domain: com.apple.gputools.MTLReplayer Error code: 100 Description: Abort trap: 6 Call stack: 0 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249c25850 MakeNSError + 284 1 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249c26428 HandleCrashSignal + 252 2 libsystem_platform.dylib 0x00000001856c7744 _sigtramp + 56 3 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856bd888 pthread_kill + 296 4 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001855c2850 abort + 124 5 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001855c1a84 err + 0 6 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea60a8 -[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue _commit:count:commitFeedback:].cold.1 + 0 7 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea0df8 __77-[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue commitFillArgs:count:args:argsSize:commitFeedback:]_block_invoke + 0 8 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea1004 -[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue _commit:count:commitFeedback:] + 148 9 AGXMetalG14X 0x00000001158a2c98 -[AGXG14XFamilyCommandQueue_mtlnext noMergeCommit:count:options:commitFeedback:error:] + 116 10 AGXMetalG14X 0x0000000115a45c14 +[AGXG14XFamilyRenderContext_mtlnext mergeRenderEncoders:count:options:commitFeedback:queue:error:] + 4740 11 AGXMetalG14X 0x00000001158a2b34 -[AGXG14XFamilyCommandQueue_mtlnext commit:count:options:] + 96 12 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249bf0644 GTMTLReplayController_defaultDispatchFunction_noPinning + 2744 13 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249befb10 GTMTLReplayController_defaultDispatchFunction + 1368 14 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249b7a61c _ZL16DispatchFunctionP21GTMTLReplayControllerPK11GTTraceFuncRb + 476 15 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249b8603c ___ZN35GTUSCSamplingStreamingManagerHelper19StreamFrameTimeDataEv_block_invoke + 456 16 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c878 __NSBLOCKOPERATION_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ + 24 17 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c740 -[NSBlockOperation main] + 96 18 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c6d8 __NSOPERATION_IS_INVOKING_MAIN__ + 16 19 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c308 -[NSOperation start] + 640 20 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c080 __NSOPERATIONQUEUE_IS_STARTING_AN_OPERATION__ + 16 21 Foundation 0x0000000186f6bf70 __NSOQSchedule_f + 164 22 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001855104d0 _dispatch_block_async_invoke2 + 148 23 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018551aad4 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 24 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001855056e4 _dispatch_continuation_pop + 596 25 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185504d58 _dispatch_async_redirect_invoke + 580 26 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185512fc8 _dispatch_root_queue_drain + 364 27 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185513784 _dispatch_worker_thread2 + 180 28 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856b9e10 _pthread_wqthread + 232 29 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856b8b9c start_wqthread + 8 Replayer breadcrumbs: [ ] GTErrorKeyProcessSignal: SIGABRT === Setup === Capture device: star.localdomain (Mac14,14) - macOS 26.2 (25C56) - 0BA10D1D-D340-5F2E-934B-536675AF9BA1 Metal version: 370.64.2 Supported graphics APIs: Metal device: Apple M2 Ultra Supported GPU families: Apple1 Apple2 Apple3 Apple4 Apple5 Apple6 Apple7 Apple8 Mac1 Mac2 Common1 Common2 Common3 Metal3 Metal4 Replay device: star (Mac14,14) - macOS 26.2 (25C56) - 0BA10D1D-D340-5F2E-934B-536675AF9BA1 Metal version: 370.64.2 Supported graphics APIs: Metal device: Apple M2 Ultra Supported GPU families: Apple1 Apple2 Apple3 Apple4 Apple5 Apple6 Apple7 Apple8 Mac1 Mac2 Common1 Common2 Common3 Metal3 Metal4 Host: Mac14,14 - macOS 26.2 (25C56) Tool: Xcode (17C52) Known SDKs:

I have something like this drawing in an MTKView (see at bottom). I am finding it difficult to figure out when can the Swift-land resources used in making the MTLBuffer(s) be released? Below, for example, is it ok if args goes out of scope (or is otherwise deallocated) at point 1, 2, or 3? Or perhaps even earlier, as soon as argsBuffer has been created? I have been reading through various articles such as Setting resource storage modes Choosing a resource storage mode for Apple GPUs Copying data to a private resource but it's a lot to absorb and I haven't been really able to find an authoritative description of the required lifetime of the resources in CPU land. I should mention that this is Metal 4 code. In previous versions of Metal, the MTLCommandBuffer had the ability to add a completion handler to be called by the GPU after it has finished running the commands in the buffer but in Metal 4 there is no such thing (it it were even needed for the purpose I am interested in). Any advice and/or pointers to the definitive literature will be appreciated. guard let argsBuffer = device.makeBuffer(bytes: &args,... argumentTable.setAddress(argsBuffer.gpuAddress, ... encoder.setArgumentTable(argumentTable, stages: .vertex) // encode drawing renderEncoder.draw... ... encoder.endEncoding() // 1 commandBuffer.endCommandBuffer() // 2 commandQueue.waitForDrawable(drawable) commandQueue.commit([commandBuffer]) // 3 commandQueue.signalDrawable(drawable) drawable.present()

I'm developing a turn based game. When I present the GKTurnBasedMatchmakerViewController players can opt in for automatch instead of selecting a specific friend as opponent. How exactly does the matching work if a player doesn't specify anything explicitly? Does Game Center send push notifications in a round robin fashion to all friends and the first one to accept is then matched as opponent? Is this documented somewhere?

My app has a number of heterogeneous GPU workloads that all run concurrently. Some of these should be executed with the highest priority because the app’s responsiveness depends on them, while others are triggered by file imports and the like which should have a low priority. If this was running on the CPU I’d assign the former User Interactive QoS and the latter Utility QoS. Is there an equivalent to this for GPU work?

I am puzzled by the setAddress(_:attributeStride:index:) of MTL4ArgumentTable. Can anyone please explain what the attributeStride parameter is for? The doc says that it is "The stride between attributes in the buffer." but why? Who uses this for what? On the C++ side in the shaders the stride is determined by the C++ type, as far as I know. What am I missing here? Thanks!

Hi, I am using xCode26.x. But my Metal4 classes are not compiling. I downloaded the sample code from Apple's website - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/Metal/processing-a-texture-in-a-compute-function. For example, I am getting errors like "Cannot find protocol declaration for 'MTL4CommandQueue'; I have hit a deadline. Any recommendations are very welcome. I have downloaded the Metal Tool chain.

I noticed that MTLPixelFormat has this cases: case r32Float = 55 case rg32Float = 105 case rgba32Float = 125 But no case rgb32Float. What's the reason for such a discrimination?

I'm developing a game that supports GameKit turn based matches. What I don't understand is this: Is tapping on the Game Center notification push messages the only way for the GKTurnBasedEventListener to trigger? What if someone misses the push message (swiping it away by accident or something like that) but still wants to join? Is there some inbox somewhere where the pending messages can be seen or fetched? Also it was mentioned in a very old WWDC video (from 2013, I think that's the latest with information about turn based matches) that the notification also includes a badge for the icon. However, I do not understand how to implement that. Is there any documentation for that?

Hi, I would like clarification on whether the new hover effects feature introduced in vision os 26 supported pinch gestures through the psvr 2 controllers. In your sample application, I was not able to confirm that this was working. Only pinch clicking with my hands worked. Pulling the trigger on the controller whilst looking at a 3d object did not activate the hover effect spatial event in the sample application. (The object is showing the highlight though) This is inconsistent with hover effect behavior with psvr2 controllers on swift ui views, where the trigger press does count as a button click. The sample I used was this one: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/compositorservices/rendering_hover_effects_in_metal_immersive_apps

In my game 854159268 (com.1791entertainment.qugame), in my quMostRecent3 leaderboard, the top 2 entries have 'vanished'. They were there yesterday. I know these players have played today, as I see their scores on other leaderboards. Any ideas how to get these back? These 2 players (me and my tester) are both TestFlight ing - not sure if that changes things.

I was wondering if there's a method on MacOS to have my application hide a hid device such as a game controller and instead have the receiving game/application see my app's virtual controller? Is this possible via DriverKit or some other form of kernel level coding? On Windows we have a tool known as HidHide that hids a game controller from all other applications. Is it possible to implement such behavior into an app or is that system level?
