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” 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.

So if I drag an entity in RealityView I have to disable the PhysicsBodyComponent to make sure nothing fights dragging the entity around. This makes sense.
When I finish a drag, this closure gets executed:
.gesture(
DragGesture()
.targetedToAnyEntity()
.onChanged { e in
// ...
}
.onEnded { e in
let velocity: CGSize = e.gestureValue.velocity
}
If I now re-add PhysicsBodyComponent to the component I just dragged, and I make it mode: .dynamic it will loose all velocity and drop straight down through gravity.
Instead the solution is to apply mode: .kinematic and also apply a PhysicsMotionComponent component to the entity. This should retain velocity after letting go of the object.
However, I need to instatiate it with PhysicsMotionComponent(linearVelocity: SIMD3<Float>, angularVelocity: SIMD3<Float>).
How can I calculate the linearVelocity and angularVelocity when the e.gestureValue.velocity I get is just a CGSize?
Is there another prop of gestureValue I should be looking at?

macOS 15.2, MBP M1, built-in display.
The following code produces a line outside the bounds of my clipping region when drawing to CGLayers, to produce a clockwise arc:
CGContextBeginPath(m_s.outContext);
CGContextAddArc(m_s.outContext, leftX + radius, topY - radius, radius, -startRads, -endRads, 1);
CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(m_s.outContext, col.fRed(), col.fGreen(), col.fBlue(), col.fAlpha());
CGContextSetLineWidth(m_s.outContext, width);
CGContextStrokePath(m_s.outContext);
Drawing other shapes such as rects or ellipses doesn't cause a problem.
I can work around the issue by bringing the path back to the start of the arc:
CGContextBeginPath(m_s.outContext);
CGContextAddArc(m_s.outContext, leftX + radius, topY - radius, radius, -startRads, -endRads, 1);
// add a second arc back to the start
CGContextAddArc(m_s.outContext, leftX + radius, topY - radius, radius, -endRads, -startRads, 0);
CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(m_s.outContext, col.fRed(), col.fGreen(), col.fBlue(), col.fAlpha());
CGContextSetLineWidth(m_s.outContext, width);
CGContextStrokePath(m_s.outContext);
But this does appear to be a bug.
Hello, I am making a project in SDL, and with that I am using SDL_Image. I am doing all of this on Xcode.
I've been able to initialize everything just fine, but issues spring up when I try to load an image.
When I give the code a path to look for an image:
Unable to load image! IMG_Error: Couldn't open [Insert image path here]: Operation not permitted
I get that error.
Keep in mind "Unable to load image" is a general error I put in the code should loading said image fail, the specific error which I called with IMG_GetError() is what we really need to know.
I've seen before that this might occur if a program does not have full disk access. Because of this, I've tried giving Xcode full disk access, but this didn't work and I still got the same error.
I’m trying to create a CGContext that matches my screen using the following code
let context = CGContext(
data: pixelBuffer,
width: pixelWidth, // 3456
height: pixelHeight, // 2234
bitsPerComponent: 10, // PixelEncoding = "--RRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGBBBBBBBBBB"
bytesPerRow: bytesPerRow, // 13824
space: CGColorSpace(name: CGColorSpace.extendedSRGB)!,
bitmapInfo: CGImageAlphaInfo.none.rawValue
| CGImagePixelFormatInfo.RGBCIF10.rawValue
| CGImageByteOrderInfo.order16Little.rawValue
)
But it fails with an error
CGBitmapContextCreate: unsupported parameter combination:

See Quartz 2D Programming Guide (available online) for more information.
Why is it unsupported if it matches the 6th option? (32 bits per pixel, 10 bits per component, kCGImageAlphaNone|kCGImagePixelFormatRGBCIF10|kCGImageByteOrder16Little)
End goal: to detect 3 lines, and 2 corners accurately. Trying contours but they are a bit off. Is there a way or settings in contours to detect corners and lines more accurately, maybe less an sharper edged/corner contours? Or some other API or methods please?
I would love an email please ;) thank you. 2. also an overlay/scale issue
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.
Hey, i have created a game in unity with the apple core and apple gamekit plugins present. I setup 5 leaderboards on the app store connect. I made a unity build and did the whole testflight build loop to test everything. When i open my gamecenter panel via the button i see my leaderboards but they show as MISSING TITLE which is weird because i have for sure set them up correctly they have a leaderboard reference name and leaderboard id as well. When debugging i can see that when i call my submit score function it gets submitted with no error but then i also dont see the score appear anywhere .
Keep in mind the leaderboards are not live and are being tested on testflight first
Hi, I’m learning MAUI and was trying to use VNDocumentCameraViewController provided by Vision Kit to scan documents and it is working fine but I realized that I was not able to customize some of the options provided by default like, disabling the auto scan option. Is there any way to disable the auto scan option or are there any other alternatives with the same founctionalities as VNDocumentCameraViewController that are more customizable?
I am creating a RealityKit scene that will contain over 12,000 duplicate cubes arranged in a circle (see image below). This is for some high-energy physical simulations I am doing. I accomplish this scene by creating a single cube and cloning it a bunch of times. So, I there is a single MeshResource and Material even though there are a lot of entities. I have confirmed this by checking with Swift's === operator. Even with this, the program is unworkably slow.
Any suggestions or tricks that could help with this type of scene?
Using a single geometry was the trick to getting SceneKit to work fast with geometries like this. I've been updating my software to RealityKit because I far prefer the structure of RealityKit over SceneKit.
So I'm trying to use SpriteKit to make the background of my game. The walls have alpha 1.0, and the safe area alpha 0 and fully transparent. (e.g. a big black square with a smaller transparent square in the middle of it). Yet sprite kit always assume the entire image is either fully opaque or fully transparent. That defies its purpose isn't it? Is there a way to make this work?
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?
Hello, I am experiencing an issue with a character animation using RealityKit.
I have a file created in Blender that contains the rigged Character, a sword, and a shield. The sword and the shield have bones connected to the character's hands so they can follow the character's animation. When I run the animation in Blender and preview the exported USDZ file on Mac, I can see the sword and shield attached to the hands and the animation is fine. But when I add the USDZ model in RealityKit and play the animation, only the character is animating, the sword and the shield are not moving at all.
This is the code I use to animate the character:
private func loadAnimations() {
let unifiedAnimations = children[0].availableAnimations.first!.definition
let animationResource = try! AnimationResource.generate(with: unifiedAnimations)
self.children[0].playAnimation(
animationResource.repeat()
)
}
Here is a link with a Demo Xcode project, the Blender file, and a video:
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ypq2iwxc5f9dwzjggsvin/AppleTest.zip?rlkey=wiag3rg44urhjdh2wal8cdx2u&st=vbpf7x11&dl=0
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
I have created a demo project that displays the character on a horizontal surface, and the animation starts playing.
Run the App. The ARView will be set up, and a yellow square will appear in the middle of the screen.
When a horizontal surface is detected the yellow Square will change indicating that the surface is found.
Tap on the screen to load the USDZ model and position it in the yellow square's position.
The Animation will start playing and you can see that the character is animating, but the sword and shield remain still.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm working with a very simple app that tries to read a coordinates card and past the data into diferent fields. The card's layout is COLUMNS from 1-10, ROWs from A-J and a two digit number for each cell. In my app, I have field for each of those cells (A1, A2...). I want that OCR to read that card and paste the info but I just cant. I have two problems. The camera won't close. It remains open until I press the button SAVE (this is not good because a user could take 3, 4, 5... pictures of the same card with, maybe, different results, and then? Which is the good one?). Then, after I press save, I can see the OCR kinda works ( the console prints all the date read) but the info is not pasted at all.
Any idea? I know is hard to know what's wrong but I've tried chatgpt and all it does... just doesn't work

I have used the Mac M1 and M4.
Developing OpenGL projects on machines running macOS 15.2 and 13.6.
Call the OpenGL library functions of Mac.
glTexImage2D
If you use GL_LUMINANCE, GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA, GL_ALPHA these three textures, you will get an error gl 500.
It makes me unable to draw normally on Mac.
What's the reason for this? Don't they support it?
I have a CoreImage pipeline and one of my steps is to rotate my image about the origin (bottom left corner) and then translate it. I'm not seeing the behaviour I'm expecting, and I think my problem is in how I'm combining these two steps.
As an example, I start with an identity transform
(lldb) po transform333
▿ CGAffineTransform
- a : 1.0
- b : 0.0
- c : 0.0
- d : 1.0
- tx : 0.0
- ty : 0.0
I then rotate 1.57 radians (approx. 90 degrees, CCW)
transform333 = transform333.rotated(by: 1.57)
- a : 0.0007963267107332633
- b : 0.9999996829318346
- c : -0.9999996829318346
- d : 0.0007963267107332633
- tx : 0.0
- ty : 0.0
I understand the current contents of the transform.
But then I translate by 10, 10:
(lldb) po transform333.translatedBy(x: 10, y: 10)
- a : 0.0007963267107332633
- b : 0.9999996829318346
- c : -0.9999996829318346
- d : 0.0007963267107332633
- tx : -9.992033562211013
- ty : 10.007960096425679
I was expecting tx and ty to be 10 and 10.
I have noticed that when I reverse the order of these operations, the transform contents look correct. So I'll most likely just perform the steps in what feels to me like the incorrect order.
Is anyone willing/able to point me to an explanation of why the steps I'm performing are giving me these results?
thanks,
mike
Hola. At this point, I'm at my wit's end because I've tried EVERYTHING just to be able to play a single game on my Mac, but the new update makes it impossible.
So I'm just gonna ask for one game: I've been trying to play Stardew Valley, modded with SMAPI, for a week now. Despite playing the game with mods for almost 2 years, OS is refusing to open the game because SMAPI "contains malware". I tried reinstalling the mod, but no dice. It just automatically deletes the terminal and blocks the game from opening.
You can imagine my frustration because the mod has been 100% safe for 2 years. No option to "Open Anyway" in Security Settings, either. I have no say in this. I've tried code signing it in Terminal (three times). Also no dice. Followed these two forums.
https://www.reddit.com/r/StardewValley/comments/1h071jl/mac_deleted_stardew_modding_api_because_of_malware/

NOTHING. Please tell me there's a way to override this??? Just let me install malware on my computer!😭

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 making a framework in C++ using metal-cpp, basically a small game engine. I am also consequently using metal-cpp-extensions provided in LearnMetalCPP to make applications work.
For one of my classes, I needed to add AppKit.hpp inside a public header file, so I moved it and its associate headers(NSApplication.hpp, NSMenu.hpp, etc.) from Project headers to Public in Build Phases' Headers, however, it started giving me the error "cast of C pointer type 'void *' to Objective-C pointer type 'Class' requires a bridged cast" at several points in the AppKit headers. They don't appear when AppKit and its associates are in the Project headers, or when they are in the Private headers and no headers import it.
I imagined that disabling Objective-C ARC and Using __bridge casts outside of ARC in Build Settings would solve it, but it didn't budge.
I imagined it wouldn't involve actively changing the headers would be the answer, but even if I try to put __bridge before the problematic casts, it didn't recognize __bridge.
How do I solve this? And why is it only happening in Public and not Project headers?
