I am using Unity's GameKit to implement a turnbase game. I want to make a UI in Unity to show all the games I can join. I tried using var matches = await GKTurnBasedMatch.LoadMatches(); to get all the open matches. But it seems that I can only get the matcm related to the current apple account. Can you help me get all the matches? ALSO I used var match = await GKTurnBasedMatchmakerViewController.Request(request); to exit the gamecenter interface and start a game (automatic matching, no one was invited) Another device used var match = await GKTurnBasedMatch.Find(request); to find the game, but it did not find the game, but it start a new game (automatic matching). Can you help me solve these problems?

I'm building a game with a client-server architecture. Using GKMatch.chooseBestHostingPlayer(_:) rarely works. When I started testing it today, it worked once at the very beginning, and since then it always succeeds on one client and returns nil on the other client. I'm testing with a Mac and an iPhone. Sometimes it fails on the Mac, sometimes on the iPhone. On the device that it succeeds on, the provided host can be the device itself or the other one. I created FB9583628 in August 2021, but after the Feedback Assistant team replied that they are not able to reproduce it, the feedback never went forward. import SceneKit import GameKit #if os(macOS) typealias ViewController = NSViewController #else typealias ViewController = UIViewController #endif class GameViewController: ViewController, GKMatchmakerViewControllerDelegate, GKMatchDelegate { var match: GKMatch? var matchStarted = false override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() GKLocalPlayer.local.authenticateHandler = authenticate } private func authenticate(_ viewController: ViewController?, _ error: Error?) { #if os(macOS) if let viewController = viewController { presentAsSheet(viewController) } else if let error = error { print(error) } else { print("authenticated as \(GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID)") let viewController = GKMatchmakerViewController(matchRequest: defaultMatchRequest())! viewController.matchmakerDelegate = self GKDialogController.shared().present(viewController) } #else if let viewController = viewController { present(viewController, animated: true) } else if let error = error { print(error) } else { print("authenticated as \(GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID)") let viewController = GKMatchmakerViewController(matchRequest: defaultMatchRequest())! viewController.matchmakerDelegate = self present(viewController, animated: true) } #endif } private func defaultMatchRequest() -> GKMatchRequest { let request = GKMatchRequest() request.minPlayers = 2 request.maxPlayers = 2 request.defaultNumberOfPlayers = 2 request.inviteMessage = "Ciao!" return request } func matchmakerViewControllerWasCancelled(_ viewController: GKMatchmakerViewController) { print("cancelled") } func matchmakerViewController(_ viewController: GKMatchmakerViewController, didFailWithError error: Error) { print(error) } func matchmakerViewController(_ viewController: GKMatchmakerViewController, didFind match: GKMatch) { self.match = match match.delegate = self startMatch() } func match(_ match: GKMatch, player: GKPlayer, didChange state: GKPlayerConnectionState) { print("\(player.gamePlayerID) changed state to \(String(describing: state))") startMatch() } func startMatch() { let match = match! if matchStarted || match.expectedPlayerCount > 0 { return } print("starting match with local player \(GKLocalPlayer.local.gamePlayerID) and remote players \(match.players.map({ $0.gamePlayerID }))") match.chooseBestHostingPlayer { host in print("host is \(String(describing: host?.gamePlayerID))") } } }

We are trying to implement saving and fetching data to and from iCloud, but it have some problems. MacOS: 15.3 Here is what I do: Enable Game Center and iCloud capbility in Signing & Capabilities, pick iCloud Documents, create and select a Container. Sample code: void SaveDataToCloud( const void* buffer, unsigned int datasize, const char* name ) { if(!GKLocalPlayer.localPlayer.authenticated) return; NSData* data = [ NSData dataWithBytes:databuffer length:datasize]; NSString* filename = [ NSString stringWithUTF8String:name ]; [[GKLocalPlayer localPlayer] saveGameData:data withName:filename completionHandler:^(GKSavedGame * _Nullable savedGame, NSError * _Nullable){ if (error != nil) { NSLog( @"SaveDataToCloud error:%@", [ error localizedDescription ] ); } }]; } void FetchCloudSavedGameData() { if ( !GKLocalPlayer.localPlayer.authenticated ) return; [ [ GKLocalPlayer localPlayer ] fetchSavedGamesWithCompletionHandler:^(NSArray<GKSavedGame *> * _Nullable savedGames, NSError * _Nullable error) { if ( error == nil ) { for ( GKSavedGame *item in savedGames ) { [ item loadDataWithCompletionHandler:^(NSData * _Nullable data, NSError * _Nullable error) { if ( error == nil ) { //handle data } else { NSLog( @"FetchCloudSavedGameData failed to load iCloud file: %@, error:%@", item.name, [ error localizedDescription ] ); } } ]; } } else { NSLog( @"FetchCloudSavedGameData error:%@", [ error localizedDescription ] ); } } ]; } Both saveGameData and fetchSavedGamesWithCompletionHandler are not reporting any error, when debugging, saveGameData completionHandler got a nil error, and can get a valid "savedGame", but when try to rebot the game and use "fetchSavedGamesWithCompletionHandler" to fetch data, we got nothing, no error reported, and the savedGames got a 0 length. From this page https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/718541?answerId=825596022#825596022 we try to wait 30sec after authenticated , then try fetchSavedGamesWithCompletionHandler, still got the same error. Checked: Game Center and iCloud are enabled and login with the same account. iCloud have enough space to save. So what's wrong with it.

I am currently working on a game that involves earning achievements, which I am using the Apple Unity Plug-Ins to display. I have found that occasionally opening the Game Center Dashboard the last achievement earned will not be displayed until the game is closed and reopened. I am using GKAccessPoint.Shared.Trigger to display the Achievements screen, which occasionally seems to open a cached version of the dashboard. I've found that it seems to consistently happen when earning multiple achievements within one minute, but this is not always the case. Does anybody have any experience with something like this in the past?

Hi all im having a variety of issues with gamekit matchmaking. On the simulator the matchmaking ui pops up and I can click Quick Match, then immediately "Failed to find Players" this is the same with a real Apple ID and a sandbox account. If I use real devices the app at least discovers a match, but then the match none of the delegate methods for the match ever get called and the logs are filled with socket not connected and various errors. My questions are: Should match making via quick match work in the simulator, I have seen tutorial videos etc of this working, but I can't seem to get it to work. How do people debug issues with GameCenter / Gamekit to find out why its not able to connect? Many thanks in advance

The solo Leveling:arise is a game but the game mode is not switching on and game crashing everything time while playing

I play this game called Sonic Forces: Speed Battle that's available in the app store and I completed a quest outside of the app on this site called TapResearch for some rewards as I've done before and has worked, but after this one time I can no longer enter back into the game without crashing immediately. I tried deleting and reinstalling but nothing. I even tried signing into a different account but that didn't work either. So then I tried to make a new game center account to try and see if it works, and it did, though all my progress has been restarted. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I’ve added two recurring leaderboards to my app and the user interface for the Game Center leaderboards pops up when expected and it lists the leaderboards but when you click on them it says “Have Fun With Friends” and lists some of my contacts instead of any scores. The status under Apple Connect is “Not Live” and I’m wondering how to activate them. App has been approved for external beta testing. On a related note, on my iPad it doesn’t display correctly, it says “Game Center” at the top but the rest of the UI doesn’t appear, just blackness.

Hello, I’m the developer of the “ StepSquad” app. Our app uses the Game Center achievement feature, but we’ve been encountering a problem: the “Global Players” metric always shows 0%, even though there are friends who have already achieved these achievements. Initially, I thought it might be because the app was newly launched. However, it’s now been over two months since release, and it’s still showing 0%. If anyone has any insight into this issue, please leave a comment.

I'm trying to add support to PS5 DualSense controller. when I try to use the API from here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/gamecontroller/gcdualsenseadaptivetrigger?language=objc None of the API works, am I missed anything? The code is like this: if ( [ controller.extendedGamepad isKindOfClass:[ GCDualSenseGamepad class ] ] ) { GCDualSenseGamepad * dualSenseGamePad = ( GCDualSenseGamepad * )controller.extendedGamepad; auto funcSetEffectTrigger = []( TriggerEffectParams& params, GCDualSenseAdaptiveTrigger *trigger ) { if ( params.m_mode == TriggerEffectMode::Off ) { [ trigger setModeOff ]; NSLog(@"setModeOff trigger.mode:%d", trigger.mode ); } else if ( params.m_mode == TriggerEffectMode::Feedback ) { [ trigger setModeFeedbackWithStartPosition: 0.2f resistiveStrength: 0.5f ]; } else if ( params.m_mode == TriggerEffectMode::Weapon ) { [ trigger setModeWeaponWithStartPosition: 0.2f endPosition: 0.4f resistiveStrength: 0.5f ]; } else if ( params.m_mode == TriggerEffectMode::Vibration ) { [ trigger setModeVibrationWithStartPosition: position amplitude: amplitude frequency: frequency ]; } }; if ( L2 ) { funcSetEffectTrigger( params, dualSenseGamePad.leftTrigger ); } if ( R2 ) { funcSetEffectTrigger( params, dualSenseGamePad.rightTrigger ); } } I've also tested to add "Game Controllers" capability to Target, still not working. Can't find anything else from the document or forums. I've no idea what need to do.

I am developing a turn based game using GameKit. The happy path (pretty much as always) is fine; invite, accept, play, have winners/losers and match ends. Yay! But I am working on making sure I handle situations where invited friends decline to participate. I've been through the docs, and don't see how the GKTurnBasedMatch is updated to reflect the tap of the decline button in the Game Center Invite notification. When I reload the match from Game Center on the host device the status for the invitee who declined is still .invited. I also tested by setting all players that are not the host in the nextParticipants of the endTurn(...) to start the invites and the next invitee was not given a push notification to accept or decline the invite. I feel like there should be a way to determine when an invitee has declined an invite (via participant in the match.participants via status OR a delegation method somewhere that is called when the Decline or Accept buttons on that notification are tapped.) I'm missing something, please help me find it! Thank you!

After running build.py -p Core GameKit and adding the tar balls to the Unity project in Assets/ExternalPackages no packages seem to be found when running the build using our continuous integration system. This was not the case when the project was opened in the Editor. It looks like in Apple.Core, the ApplePluginEnvironment hasn't run the OnEditorUpdate function and so the _appleUnityPackages Dictionary is empty. A change to ApplePlugInEnvironment.cs seemed to fix the issue: public static AppleNativeLibrary GetLibrary(string packageDisplayName, string appleBuildConfig, string applePlatform) { // ?FIX?: If we're not in the editor, we might not have updated the package list. if (_appleUnityPackages.Count == 0 && _updateState == UpdateState.Initializing) { OnEditorUpdate(); // UpdateState.Initializing OnEditorUpdate(); // UpdateState.Updating } I'm not sure if this is something we're doing incorrectly, the documentation for the plug-in mostly covered building the package.

I'm making the following call: [[GKGameCenterViewController alloc] initWithLeaderboardID:leaderboardID playerScope:(GKLeaderboardPlayerScopeGlobal) timeScope:(GKLeaderboardTimeScopeAllTime)]; When I present that VC, I get the correct leaderboard (for my passed leaderboardID), but it appears in "Friends" view, not "Global". Global works fine when I tap on it, but I'd like to display that list by default. Seems like a pretty straightforward request supported by the API. Does initWithLeaderboardID not respect that? I'm curious if others have this problem. Thanks!

Hi. The earliest version of MacOS that Unity supports is 10.13. However, it seems that running a game using Unity Plugins on 10.13 causes DLL loading exceptions whenever you try to access part of the GameKit API. The errors look like this: Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/GameKitWrapper Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.dylib Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.dylib Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.so Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.bundle DllNotFoundException: GameKitWrapper assembly:<unknown assembly> type:<unknown type> member:(null) at (wrapper managed-to-native) Apple.GameKit.DefaultNSErrorHandler+Interop.DefaultNSErrorHandler_Set(Apple.Core.Runtime.NSExceptionCallback) at Apple.GameKit.DefaultNSErrorHandler.Init () [0x00001] in ./Library/PackageCache/com.apple.unityplugin.gamekit@e3d4ad5a2c8e/Source/DefaultHandlers.cs:35 (Filename: ./Library/PackageCache/com.apple.unityplugin.gamekit@e3d4ad5a2c8e/Source/DefaultHandlers.cs Line: 35) Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/GameKitWrapper Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.dylib Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.dylib Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.so Fallback handler could not load library /Users/love/Desktop/REDACTED/Contents/Frameworks/MonoEmbedRuntime/osx/libGameKitWrapper.bundle DllNotFoundException: GameKitWrapper assembly:<unknown assembly> type:<unknown type> member:(null) at (wrapper managed-to-native) Apple.GameKit.DefaultNSExceptionHandler+Interop.DefaultNSExceptionHandler_Set(Apple.Core.Runtime.NSExceptionCallback) at Apple.GameKit.DefaultNSExceptionHandler.Init () [0x00001] in ./Library/PackageCache/com.apple.unityplugin.gamekit@e3d4ad5a2c8e/Source/DefaultHandlers.cs:14 These errors do not appear on 10.15 or later, which is why I am assuming it's a problem with this particular version of MacOS. Have not been able to test 10.14 so not sure how it handles there. So, here is my question - what is the earliest version of MacOS that the Apple Unity plugins support? It's not documented anywhere on the GitHub page. // Love

Hi, I’m creating a game and I’m just wondering if I can integrate GCVirtualController in my SwiftUI app.

So recently I have been trying to install game-porting-toolkit, and when I try to run brew -v install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit Im getting an error: Error: apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit 1.1 did not build Logs: /Users/mateusz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/00.options.out /Users/mateusz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/01.configure /Users/mateusz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/01.configure.cc /Users/mateusz/Library/Logs/Homebrew/game-porting-toolkit/wine64-build If reporting this issue please do so to (not Homebrew/brew or Homebrew/homebrew-core): apple/apple I searched on this forum some threads but I couldn't take any advice from them. I would really appreciate any help.

In my SceneKit game I'm able to connect two players with GKMatchmakerViewController. Now I want to support the scenario where one of them disconnects and wants to reconnect. I tried to do this with this code: nonisolated public func match(_ match: GKMatch, player: GKPlayer, didChange state: GKPlayerConnectionState) { Task { @MainActor in switch state { case .connected: break case .disconnected, .unknown: let matchRequest = GKMatchRequest() matchRequest.recipients = [player] do { try await GKMatchmaker.shared().addPlayers(to: match, matchRequest: matchRequest) } catch { } @unknown default: break } } } nonisolated public func player(_ player: GKPlayer, didAccept invite: GKInvite) { guard let viewController = GKMatchmakerViewController(invite: invite) else { return } viewController.matchmakerDelegate = self present(viewController) } But after presenting the view controller with GKMatchmakerViewController(invite:), nothing else happens. I would expect matchmakerViewController(_:didFind:) to be called, or how would I get an instance of GKMatch? Here is the code I use to reproduce the issue, and below the reproduction steps. Code Run the attached project on an iPad and a Mac simultaneously. On both devices, tap the ship to connect to GameCenter. Create an automatched match by tapping the rightmost icon on both devices. When the two devices are matched, on iPad close the dialog and tap on the ship to disconnect from GameCenter. Wait some time until the Mac detects the disconnect and automatically sends an invitation to join again. When the notification arrives on the iPad, tap it, then tap the ship to connect to GameCenter again. The iPad receives the call player(_:didAccept:), but nothing else, so there’s no way to get a GKMatch instance again.

Hi, I have a test app with a single "game centre achievement" and I am running it on my iPad and unable to list that achievement with GameCenterManager.shared.loadAchievements The app is still in version 1.0, prepare for submission status, (it is not ready for review submission). Game Center entitlement is added for the app and the achievement is added to the Game Center section of app. However it is marked as NotLive. I am using a sandbox account to login to game centre on the iPad and I can't fetch this achievement. Is it because it is "NotLive". ? How do I test my Game Center achivement on the device without releasing it yet.

GKGameCenterViewController won't turn off. With Core and GameKit from GitHub apple/unityplugins, I succeeded in logging in and displaying GKGameCenterViewController. Other leaderboards and everything work fine, but when I press X on GameCenter to return to the game, nothing happens. I tried debugging by printing logs here and there in the plugin to check, but I didn't get any results. When I press X, I couldn't get any logs or responses. It was like a button with no listener attached. No, it was more like an image. Based on the community posts that said it worked fine before, it seems that the recent GameCenter update was not applied to the plugin, was omitted, or changed, causing a mismatch.
