Hi Friends! I’m facing an issue with SceneKit. I’m developing a 3D mobile game. I have a character 3D model and several skeletal animations CAAnimation. I import both the model and the animations from Maya in *.dae format. The character’s animations play continuously one after the other, with each new animation being triggered randomly. The transition between animations makes smoothly by setting the fadeInDuration and fadeOutDuration properties. Here’s an example of the code: import UIKit import QuartzCore import SceneKit class TestAnimationController: UIViewController { var bodyNode: SCNNode? override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let scnView = SCNView(frame: self.view.bounds) scnView.backgroundColor = .black // Set your desired background color scnView.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth, .flexibleHeight] let scene = SCNScene(named: "art.scnassets/scene/Base_room/ROOM5.scn")! bodyNode = collada2SCNNode(filepath: "art.scnassets/female/girl_body_races.dae")! bodyNode?.renderingOrder = 10 scene.rootNode.addChildNode(bodyNode!) playIdleAnimation() scnView.scene = scene // Assign the scene to the SCNView self.view.addSubview(scnView) // Add the SCNView to your main view) } func collada2SCNNode(filepath:String) -> SCNNode? { if let scene = SCNScene(named: filepath) { let node = scene.rootNode.childNodes[0] return node } else { return nil } } func playIdleAnimation() { let array = [ "art.scnassets/female/animations/idle/girl_idle_4.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/idle/girl_idle1.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/idle/girl_idle2.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/idle/Girl_idle3.dae", ] let animation = CAAnimation.animationWithSceneNamed(array.randomElement() ?? "")! self.setAnimationAdd( fadeInDuration: 1.0, fadeOutDuration: 1.0, keyTime: 0.99, animation, isLooped: false ) { [weak self] in guard let self = self else { return } try? self.playBoringAnimations() } } func playBoringAnimations() { let array = [ "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring1.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring2.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring3.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring4.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring5.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring6.dae", "art.scnassets/female/animations/boring/girl_boring8.dae" ] let animation = CAAnimation.animationWithSceneNamed(array.randomElement() ?? "")! self.setAnimationAdd( fadeInDuration: 1.0, fadeOutDuration: 1.0, keyTime: 0.99, animation, isLooped: false ) { [weak self] in guard let self = self else { return } try? self.playIdleAnimation() } } func setAnimationAdd(fadeInDuration : CGFloat, fadeOutDuration : CGFloat, keyTime : CGFloat, _ animation: CAAnimation, isLooped: Bool, completion: (() -> Void)?) { animation.fadeInDuration = fadeInDuration animation.fadeOutDuration = fadeOutDuration if !isLooped { animation.repeatCount = 1 } else { animation.repeatCount = Float.greatestFiniteMagnitude } animation.animationEvents = [ SCNAnimationEvent(keyTime: keyTime, block: { _, _, _ in completion?() }) ] bodyNode?.addAnimation(animation, forKey: "avatarAnimation") } } Everything worked perfectly until I updated to iOS 18. On a physical device, the animations now transition abruptly without the smooth blending that was present in earlier iOS versions. The switch between them is very noticeable, as if the fadeInDuration and fadeOutDuration parameters are being ignored. However, in the iOS 18 simulator, the animations still transition smoothly as before. Here two example videos - IOS 17.5 and IOS 18 https://youtube.com/shorts/jzoMRF4skAQ - IOS 17,5 smooth https://youtube.com/shorts/VJXrZzO9wl0 - IOS 18 not smooth I try this code in IOS 17.5, everything works fine Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue?

Hello dear forum, I need to emit an exact amount of particles from a SCNParticleSystem in a burst (this is for an UI effect). This worked for me perfectly in the scene editor by setting the birthrate to the amount and emission duration to 0. Sadly when I either load such a particle system from a scene or creating it by code, the emitted particles are sometimes one less, or one more. The first time I run it in the simulator, it seems to work fine but then amount of particles varies as described. video: https://youtube.com/shorts/MRzqWBy2ypA?feature=share Does anybody know how to make this predictable? Thanks so much in advance, Seb

I'm trying to update my projects to use Swift6, if I change the project settings to use Swift6 then my app crashes when I add a closure to the SCNAnimation animationDidStop property. The error is inside the SceneKit renderingQueue and indicates that the callback is being called on the wring queue. Maybe I need to do something in the code to fix this but I can't seem to make it work, maybe a SceneKit bug? If you create a new game template in Xcode using SceneKit and replace the contents of GameViewController.swift with the following you will see the app crash after it is launched. import UIKit import SceneKit class GameViewController: UIViewController { let player: SCNAnimationPlayer = { let a = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "opacity") return SCNAnimationPlayer(animation: SCNAnimation(caAnimation: a)) }() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() let scnView = self.view as! SCNView scnView.scene = SCNScene() // Change the project settings to use Swift6 // Setting this closure will then cause a _dispatch_assert_queue_fail // EXC_BREAKPOINT error in the scenekit.renderingQueue.SCNView queue, // the only thing on the stack is: // "%sBlock was %sexpected to execute on queue [%s (%p)]" player.animation.animationDidStop = { (a: SCNAnimation, b: SCNAnimatable, c: Bool) in print("stopped") } scnView.scene?.rootNode.addAnimationPlayer(player, forKey: nil) player.play() } }

Will visionOS support SceneKit?

HI guys, I'm integrating the RoomPlan framework into my app. I'm able to scan a room and extract the nodes from the CaptureStructure object. So far, I can rebuild the 3D object in the SceneView, but I can't render the openings and the windows correctly. I'm struggling to add these two objects correctly in the wall, in order to make the wall transparent where they are supposed to be. If I export the CaptureStructure into a usda file and then I load it directly in the SceneView, all the doors, windows and openings are correctly rendered, therefore I do believe that I'm doing something wrong. Could you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I added here a screenshot of my problem: I have also a prototype, which you can run and see the problem I'm talking about: https://github.com/renanstig/3d-scenekit-prototype

i'm trying to figure out how to basically engrave some text into this ellipsoid mesh. so far the only thing i've learned that can sort of come close to what im looking for is SCNText but it floats above the ellipsoid and doesnt conform to the angular shape. let allocator = MTKMeshBufferAllocator(device: MTLCreateSystemDefaultDevice()!) let disc = MDLMesh.newEllipsoid( withRadii: vector_float3(Float(discDiameter/2), Float(discDiameter/2), Float(discThickness/2)), radialSegments: 64, verticalSegments: 64, geometryType: .triangles, inwardNormals: false, hemisphere: false, allocator: allocator ) let discGeometry = SCNGeometry(mdlMesh: disc) let material = createIridescentMaterial() discGeometry.materials = [material]

As the title suggests, clicking the "Export to SceneKit" button indeed converts a USD to .scn but removes the normals in the process if the mesh has blendshapes. When I export the same file without any blendshapes / morphtargets, the normals stay on as expected. If I try to create normals in the scenekit editor (adding them as a new geometry source) Xcode crashes (no matter if there are blendshapes or not) I've tried loading the resulting scene with [SCNSceneSource.LoadingOption.createNormalsIfAbsent : true] but this doesn't change anything either. I suppose this is a bug? My last resort is to load my character without any blendshapes and then add the targets from a different scene. Thanks for any insight! seb

So I am trying to create a certain amount of spheres in a SceneKit scene based on the number of objects in a list. So I think I would put an addChild in a for loop, but how would I assign them all to the same type of model? Especially because sometimes the list will be empty, so the model would not need to show up at all.

Hi, I am initializing a SCNNode from a OBJ file. Let's suppose the object is a sphere, and its pivot after loading it from the OBJ file is the bottom of the sphere (where it would rest on the floor). Its default position is the zero vector. However, I must change the pivot to the center of the sphere. After doing so (based on its bbox), since the position is still the zero vector, does that mean that the object was translated so that the new pivot lies at (0,0,0)? Or should set its position to (0,0,0), which will now be based on the new pivot? To test whether this is needed, I am using a separate button to change the node's position to (0,0,0) after changing its pivot, but I do not see any change visually, which leads me to believe that after changing the pivot, the object is automatically moved to (0,0,0) based on its new pivot. This is probably done faster than the scene renders which is why I do not notice any difference between the two methods. I cannot tell which of the two is correct, meaning that I do no know whether I should set the position again to (0,0,0) after changing the pivot or not. Right now it seems like it makes no difference. Any thoughts?

I am trying to make an app that uses SceneKit to display some 3D models, but started it up from the regular app format. When I try to build I get this error: shell script build rule for "/somePath/Scene.scn' must declare at least one output file. The .scn is being provided to a view, is that not an output? Or is there some formatting issue that I need to solve.

How to ensure current SKScene has fully loaded before engaging it with the GamePad Controller? MAJOR REWRITE FOR THE SAKE OF HOPEFULLY (?) INCREASED CLARITY The problem is this = when stopping sound is involved when I do switch SKScenes, if I press the buttons of the GamePad Controller (which cycle thru these other SKScenes) too fast, the movement of the Game Pieces fails to resume when I return to the Game Scene after the above cycling. This problem occurs only with the os(tvOS) version, but not with the iPad version. And the reason for this distinction is that each SKScene for the iPad has to fully load due to the fact that the button I press to switch SKScenes is at the top-left corner of the iPad -- so, by definition, by the time I have access to this button, the current SKScene has fully loaded. By definition, there is no such button for os(iOS). Given this button’s absence, I need the Swift version of jQuery’s $(document).ready (function() {. Any help will be appreciated to the rafters ...

Hi, My app has a volumetric window displaying some 3D content for the user. I would like the user to be able to control the color of the material using a color picker displayed below the model in the same window, but unfortunately neither ColorPicker nor Picker are functional in volumetric scenes. Attempting to use them causes the app to crash with NSInternalInconsistencyException: Presentations are not permitted within volumetric window scenes. This seems rather limiting. Is there a way either of these components can be utilized? I could build a different "control panel" window but it would not be attached to the model window and it would get confusing if user has multiple 3d windows open. Thank you

We have requirement adding usdz file to UIView and showing the it’s content and archive the data and save to file. When user open the file, we need to unarchive that usdz content and binding with UIView and showing it to user. Initially, we created SCNScene object passing usdz file url like below. do { usdzScene = try SCNScene(url: usdzUrl) } catch let error as NSError { print(error) } Since SCNScene support to NSSecureCoding protocol , we directly archive that object and save it file and load back it from file and created SCNScene object using NSKeyedUnarchiver process. But for some files, we realised high memory consumption while archiving the SCNScene object using below line. func encode(with coder: NSCoder) { coder.encode(self.scnScene, forKey: "scnScene") } File referene link : toy_drummer_idle.usdz When we analyse apple documentation (check discussion section) , it said, scn file extension is the fastest format for processing than the usdz. So we used SCNSecne write to feature for creating scn file from given usdz file. After that, When we do the archive SCNScene object that was created by sun file url, the archive process is more faster and it will not take high memory as well. It is really faster previous case now. But unfortunately, SCNScene write method will take lot of time for this conversion and memory meter is also going high and it will be caused to app crash as well. I check the output file size as well. The given usdz file size is 18MB and generated scn file size is 483 MB. But SCNScene archive process is so fast. Please, analyse this case and please, provide some guideline how we can optimise this behaviour. I really appreciate your feedback.

I'm working on a project in Xcode where I need to use a 3D model with multiple morph targets (shape keys in Blender) for animations. The model, specifically the Wolf3D_Head node, contains dozens of morph targets which are crucial for my project. Here's what I've done so far: I verified the morph targets in Blender (I can see all the morph targets correctly when opening both the original .glb file and the converted .dae file in Blender). Given that Xcode does not support .glb file format directly, I converted the model to .dae format, aiming to use it in my Xcode project. After importing the .dae file into Xcode, I noticed that Xcode does not show any morph targets for the Wolf3D_Head node or any other node in the model. I've already attempted using tools like ColladaMorphAdjuster and another version by JakeHoldom to adjust the .dae file, hoping Xcode would recognize the morph targets, but it didn't resolve the issue. My question is: How can I make Xcode recognize and display the morph targets present in the .dae file exported from Blender? Is there a specific process or tool that I need to use to ensure Xcode properly imports all the morph target information from a .dae file? Tools tried: https://github.com/JonAllee/ColladaMorphAdjuster, https://github.com/JakeHoldom/ColladaMorphAdjuster Thanks in advance!

Dear all, I have several scenes, each with it’s own camera at different positions. The scenes will be loaded with transitions. If I set the pointOfView in every Scene to the scene-camera, the transitions don’t work properly. The active scene View switches to the position of the camera of the scene, which is fading in. If I comment the pointOfView out, the transitions works fine, but the following error message appears: Error: camera node already has an authoring node - skip Has someone an idea to fix this? Many Thanks, Ray

Hello! I need to display a .scnz 3D model in an iOS app. I tried converting the file to a .scn file so I could use it with SCNScene but the file became corrupted. I also tried to instantiate a SCNScene with the .scnz file but that didn't work either (crash when instantiating it). After all this, what would be the best way to use this file knowing that converting it or exporting it to a .scn file with scntool hasn't worked? Thank you!

Hello, I am currently working on a project where I am creating a bookstore visualization with racks and shelves(Full immersive view). I have an array of names, each representing a USDZ object that is present in my working directory. Here’s the enum I am trying to iterate over: enum AssetName: String, Codable, Hashable, CaseIterable { case book1 = "B1" case book2 = "B2" case book3 = "B3" case book4 = "B4" } and the code for adding objects I wrote: import SwiftUI import RealityKit struct LocalAssetRealityView: View { let assetName: AssetName var body: some View { RealityView { content in if let asset = try? await ModelEntity(named: assetName.rawValue) { content.add(asset) } } } } Now I get the error, when I try to add multiple objects on Button click: Unable to present another Immersive Space when one is already requested or connected please suggest any solutions. Also suggest if anything can be done to add positions for the objects as well programatically.

Hi, I'm an experienced developer on Apple platforms (having worked on iOS/tvOS projects for more than 10 years now). However, I've only worked on applications, or simple games which didn't require more than using UIKit or SwiftUI. Now, I'd like to start a new project, recreating an old game on tvOS with 3D graphics. This is not a project I plan to release, only a simple personal challenge. I'm torn with starting this project with either SceneKit, or Unity. On one hand, I love Apple frameworks and tools, so I guess I could easily progress with SceneKit. Also, I don't know Unity very well, but even if it's a simple project, I've seen that there are several restrictions for free plans (no custom splash screen, etc). On the other hand, I've read several threads (i.e. this one) making it look like that SceneKit isn't going anywhere, and clearly recommending Unity due to the fact that its documentation is way better, and the game more easily portable to other platforms. Also, if I'm going to learn something new, maybe I could learn more with Unity (using a completely different platform, software and language) than I would with SceneKit and Swift stuff. What's your opinion about this? Thanks!
