Currently, it is not possible to achieve the occlusion effect of the model through depth reading and writing and rendering order, even in the vision 2.0 beta version, this goal cannot be achieved

I have a visionOS app that utilizes DrawableQueue and CADisplayLink to update an Entity, TextureResource tied to the drawable, and a Material that uses that TextureResource. TextureResource gets updated with when a video frame is ready. Material properties can get updated from the video or from other sources. Current process: when each video frame is ready, we get the next drawable, render to it, present it, and make an Entity update (e.g. transform). However, I’m experiencing jitter in the rendered content where it seems that the updates to the entity and the drawable being presented are milliseconds off from each other. Should I be using Drawable.presentOnSceneUpdate() to ensure all updates happen in the same update cycle? And if so, do you have any additional details on how to correctly use this function (the docs are unclear)?

Hi All, I am using RealityKit along with ARKit and Swift UI to develop an app where I am augmenting a usdz model of a complex geometry like that of a car. I have some other usdz files with a simple plane geometry having the material properties embedded within them which also i am loading as model entities. I want to traverse through my car usdz file such that i can pick the material from simple usdz file and apply it to the car as car paint. To do this i know the name of the mesh holding the car paint as well as the name of the material applied. I have tried to traverse through the usdz files using both RealityKit and SceneKit but I am not successful to reach to the lowest mesh and copy the material properties to it. With RealityKit, I have tried to get the instance data using modelEntity as follows :- "sourceModel?.model?.mesh.contents.instances". But this returns instance id, model name and transform only. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thank You

I am trying to simulate a pinball game and I want to use PhysicsBody & PhysicsMotion to achieve that. I tuned the parameters around in PhysicsBodyComponent, but the result is not quite ideal for now. Imagine a fully inflated basketball bouncing high off the ground (ground vs basketball). I assign PhysicsBodyComponent and CollisionComponent to both basketball and the ground. For basket ball, I set it as: dynamic mode mass 1, inertia .one Material.Restitution 1 Angular Damping and Linear Damping to 0 AddForce to make the basketball move to hit the ground For ground, I set it as: static mode mass 1, inertia .zero Material.Restitution 1 Angular Damping and Linear Damping to 0 However, when the basket ball hit the ground, it isn't that bouncy, the basketball behaves like hitting to a cotton and the linear speed just dumps fast. Wonder how I could achieve the bouncing effect like real basketball vs ground.

Hello, is it possible to take a screenshot of the whole immersive view, including or excluding SwiftUI components? ARView has a snapshot method for this, but it seems there's no equivalent for RealityView. I've tried to use ImageRenderer on a parent of RealityView, but I'm only getting plain white bitmap so far. Thanks in advance, Rlu

I am having a difficult time to create particle systems in Reality Composer Pro (visionOS beta 3). They tend to start to flicker and all particles disappear and reappear in semi-random intervals. I can clearly see that happening with one effect that I put inside a small box consisting of 4 transparent walls that has a solid floor. When I change the view angle the particle system starts to flicker when viewed from below its emission height. I tried all combinations of particle rendering: billboard->free, additive etc and it does not change anything. I am using the default particle image. Any help appreciated

Has anyone gotten EnvironmentLightingConfigurationComponent to work? I tried the code from https://developer.apple.com/documentation/realitykit/environmentlightingconfigurationcomponent to prevent a planet from being lit by the environment. My goal is that the side that isn't lit by the star appears pitch black. However, the code seems to have no effect on visionOS 2 and iPadOS 18 (I tried betas 1 through 4, on device, built with Xcode 16 beta 4). No matter if there is a PointLight or no light at all in the scene, no matter if I use SimpleMaterial or PhysicallyBasedMaterial, no matter if I use a texture or a color on the sphere. I filed a bug report, it's FB14470954. Or am I doing something wrong? Here's my code: var material = PhysicallyBasedMaterial() if let tex = try? await TextureResource(named: "planet.jpg") { material.baseColor = .init(texture: .init(tex)) material.emissiveIntensity = 0 let sphereMesh = MeshResource.generateSphere(radius: 0.5) let entity = ModelEntity() entity.components.set(ModelComponent(mesh: sphereMesh, materials: [material])) entity.position = [-1, 1.0, -1.0] let envLightingConfig = EnvironmentLightingConfigurationComponent(environmentLightingWeight: 0) entity.components.set(envLightingConfig) content.add(entity) }

I noticed that with the 4th betas of iOS 18 and visionOS 2, some USDZ models' texture mapping looks completely broken. The issue occurs only with a device, not with the Simulator. It's a regression, the models look fine with iOS 17.5.1 and visionOS 1.2. The issue occurs if I load a model as an Entity in a RealityView iOS or visionOS, or in a SwiftUI 3DModel view on visionOS. Has anyone seen this too? Is there a workaround? I filed a bug report with a minimal example project, it's FB14473756. Screenshot on Vision Pro device: Screenshot on Vision Pro Simulator:
