When I run the following code, the Matchmaker view is populated with me (local player) and my opponent (correct picture and friendly name). however, the "Send Game" button is disabled. I assume that recipients is set correctly. There are errors from loadPlayersForIdentifiers . GKMatchRequest *request = [[GKMatchRequest alloc] init]; request.minPlayers = 2; request.maxPlayers = 2; request.defaultNumberOfPlayers = 2; request.inviteMessage = @"Testing"; [GKPlayer loadPlayersForIdentifiers:@[ playerID ] withCompletionHandler:^(NSArray<GKPlayer *> *_Nullable players, NSError *_Nullable error) { if (error) { NSLog(@"Error loading player: %@", error); } else if (players.count > 0) { request.recipients = players; GKTurnBasedMatchmakerViewController *mmvc = [[GKTurnBasedMatchmakerViewController alloc] initWithMatchRequest:request]; mmvc.turnBasedMatchmakerDelegate = self; mmvc.showExistingMatches = NO; [self presentViewController:mmvc animated:YES completion:nil]; } }]; If I remove the opponent, and then re-add them manually, the "Send Game" button is enabled.

I have a glb model that is loading absolutely fine, repeatedly, in safari or chrome. There is only one texture that is 8192x8192 it never has a problem when loading in browser. when we embed the url into an app, the model loads the first few times (exiting the model and going back to the main menu and then reloading the model) but, after a few attempts, the texture fails to load. The model and all data is visible but the texture, itself, is black. why could this be happening? Is there something in the iOS code that is breaking it? Is the iOS code trying to automatically cache the texture and it’s running out of memory? anyone who can provide the help and support that we require will be much appreciated. thank you advance.

I have a plane that is stereoscopic so represents to the user depth that is beyond the plane. I would like to have the options to render the depth buffer for the pixels or to not render any information into the depth for the plane. I cannot see any option in Shader Graph Material to affect the depth buffer during render. I also cannot see any way in RealityKit to not render to the depth buffer for an entity. I'm open to any suggestions.

Please treat me as a beginner of Unity. Now I want to learn to develop visionOS VR App through unity. I try to find a relatively complete route and start learning, but Unity's official website does not have much explanation for visionOS VR App, so I hope you can give me a comparison. The whole route, thank you!

Here is a link to a super long conversation with a true genius at StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78343630/what-algorithm-is-available-to-correlate-a-skspritenodes-position-with-the-uibe/78379892#78379892 He has done an extraordinary amount of work to make up for what I consider is the non-working of UIBezierPath’s orientToPath = true. He’s done multiple hours work to make up for orientToPath = true not working. What are we missing?

I'm currently developing an application where the models present inside a volumetric window may exceed the clipping boundaries of the window. ( Which I currently understand to be a maximum of 2m ) Because of this, as models move through the clipping boundaries, the interior of the models becomes visible. If possible, I'd like to cap these interiors with a solid fill so as to make them more visually appealing. However, as far as I can tell, I'm quite limited in how I might be able to achieve this when using RealityKit on VisionOS. Some approaches I've seen to accomplish similar effects seem to use multiple passes of model geometries rendering into stencil buffers and using that to inform whether or not a cap should be drawn. However, afiact, if I have opted into using a RealityView and RealityKit, I don't have the level of control over my render pipeline such that I can render ModelEntities and also have multiple rendering passes over the set of contained entities to render into a stencil buffer that I then provide to a separate set of "capping planes" ( how I currently imagine I might accomplish this effect ). Alternatively ( due to the nature of the models I'm using ) I considered using a height map to construct an approximation of a surface cap, but how I might use a shader to construct a height map of rendered entities seems similarly difficult using the VisionOS RealityView pipeline. It is not obvious to me how I could use a ShaderGraphMaterial to render to an arbitrary image buffer that I might then pass to other functions to use as an input; ShaderGraphMaterial seems biased to the fact that all image inputs and outputs are either literal files or the actual rendered buffer. Would anyone out there have already created an effect like this that might have some advice? Or, potentially correct any misunderstandings I have with regards to accessing the Metal pipeline for RealityView or using ShaderGraphMaterial to construct a height map?

(Copied from https://github.com/google/jax/issues/20835) I am attempting to use JAX on Metal (on a M1 Pro chip) to model discrete (count) data. I've installed the latest version jax-metal 0.0.6 using pip. The installation seems to have worked overall as I can perform basic Jax array operations on GPU. However, when I try to compute the (log-)PMFs/PDFs of random variables which are defined in terms of the (log-)Gamma function I get errors like the one below which seems to indicate that the lax.lgamma function is not supported under the hood on M1 metal. This is essential functionality for a wide class of probabilistic machine learning models. Note that following functions (among others) are broken as a result: jax.scipy.stats.binom.logpmf jax.scipy.stats.nbinom.logpmf jax.scipy.stats.poisson.logpmf jax.scipy.stats.dirichlet.logpdf jax.scipy.stats.beta.logpdf jax.scipy.stats.gamma.logpdf ... >>> jax.scipy.stats.binom.logpmf(1, n=2, p=0.5) jax.errors.SimplifiedTraceback: For simplicity, JAX has removed its internal frames from the traceback of the following exception.

I'm trying to add an image in UIImage format to SpritKit's SKSpriteNode. When converting a UIImage into a texture to SKTexture and adding it to SKSpriteNode, the image that takes into account the orientation of the image held by the UIImage is not displayed on the screen. I tried the code below, but the result is identical. Code1: let image: UIImage? let texture: SKTexture = SKTexture(image: image!) ver imageNode = SKSpriteNode(texture: texture) Code2: let image: UIImage? let cgImage = image?.cgImage let ciImage = CIImage(cgImage: cgImage!) let orientedImage = UIImage(cgImage: CIContext(options: nil).createCGImage(ciImage, from: ciImage.extent)!, scale: 0, orientation: image!.imageOrientation) let texture: SKTexture = SKTexture(image: orientedImage) ver imageNode = SKSpriteNode(texture: texture) Code3: let image: UIImage? guard let cgImage = image?.cgImage else { return } let orientedImage = UIImage(cgImage: cgImage, scale: image!.scale, orientation: .up) let texture = SKTexture(image: orientedImage) ver imageNode = SKSpriteNode(texture: texture) Is there a way to ensure that the image orientation is taken into account when displayed?

Hi there, I have some existing metal rendering / shader views that I would like to use to present stereoscopic content on the Vision Pro. Is there a metal shader function / variable that lets me know which eye we're currently rendering to inside my shader? Something like Unity's unity_StereoEyeIndex? I know RealityKit has GeometrySwitchCameraIndex, so I want something similar (but outside of a RealityKit context). Many thanks, Rich

I'm trying to build a project with a moderately complex Reality Composer Pro project, but am unable to because my Mac mini (2023, 8GB RAM) keeps running out of memory. I'm wondering if there are any known memory leaks in realitytool, but basically the tool is taking up 20-30GB (!) memory during builds. I have a Mac Pro for content creation, which is why I didn't go for more RAM on the mini – it was supposed to just be a build machine for Apple Silicon compatibility, as my Pro is Intel. But, I'm kinda stuck here. I have a scene that builds fine, but any time I had a USD – in this case a tree asset – with lots of instances, or a lot of geometry, I run into the memory issue. I've tried greatly simplifying the model, but even a 2MB USD is resulting in the crash. I'm failing to see how adding a 2MB asset would cause the memory of realitytool to balloon so much during builds. If someone from Apple is willing to look, I can provide the scene – but it's proprietary so I can't just post it publicly here.

What is the most efficient way to use a MTLTexture (created procedurally at run-time) as a RealityKit TextureResource? I update the MTLTexture per-frame using regular Metal rendering, so it’s not something I can do offline. Is there a way to wrap it without doing a copy? A specific example would be great. Thank you!

Help!!!

When I distribute a app that includes Apple Unity plugin, I got an error of asset validation failed. The bundle 'Payload/{app name}/Frameworks/AppleCoreNative.framework' is missing plist key. The Info.plist file is missing the required key: CFBundleShortVersionString. Does anyone get this?

The Drawing fully immersive content using Metal guide describes how to use Metal for visionOS immersive experiences, but seemingly requires swift to bring up the required CompositorLayer. @main struct MyApp: App { var body: some Scene { ImmersiveSpace(id: "MyContent") { CompositorLayer { layerRenderer in let renderThread = Thread { let engine = myEngineCreate(layerRenderer) myEngineRenderLoop(engine) } renderThread.name = "Render Thread" renderThread.start() } } } The ImmersiveSpace scene can presumably be replaced with a call to [UIApplication.sharedApplication activateSceneSessionForRequest:[UISceneSessionActivationRequest requestWithRole:UISceneSessionRoleImmersiveSpaceApplication] errorHandler:nil] But is there a replacement for CompositorLayer? Or some other way to produce a cp_layer_renderer? Perhaps it would be possible to write a small swift helper for this, but given the swift interface for CompositorLayer how would that be tied to an existing UIScene as created above? @available(visionOS 1.0, *) public struct CompositorLayer : SwiftUI.ImmersiveSpaceContent { public init(configuration: any _CompositorServices_SwiftUI.CompositorLayerConfiguration = .default, renderer: @escaping (CompositorServices.LayerRenderer) -> Swift.Void) public var body: Swift.Never { get } public typealias Body = Swift.Never }

I'm trying to get a similar experience to Apple TV's immersive videos, but I cannot figure out how to present the AVPlayerViewController controls detached from the video. I am able to use the same AVPlayer in a window and projected on a VideoMaterial, but I can't figure out how to just present the controls, while displaying the video only in the 3D entity, without having a 2D projection in any view. Is this even possible?

Is it possible to set the header include paths when compiling a metal library from source at runtime? I'm dynamically generating kernel source that I'm compiling at runtime. I want to include some functions I have defined in a header. If I was doing online computation, I can specify include paths using -I /path/to/include using the command. xcrun metal -c -I /path/to/include example.metal -o example.air However when I'm online, it doesn't appear possible to define a header search path. MTLCompileOptions *options = [MTLCompileOptions new]; options.fastMathEnabled = NO; library = [device newLibraryWithSource:kernel_source options:options error:&error]; Is there a way to specify a header search path using newLibraryWithSource?

I wanted to show a progress of a certain part of the game using an entity that looks like a "pie chart", basically cylinder with a cut-out. And as progress is changed (0-100) the entity would be fuller. Is there a way to create this kind of model entity? I know there are ways to animated entities, warp them between meshes, but I was wondering if somebody knows how to achieve it in a simplest way possible? Maybe some kind of custom shader that would just change how the material is rendered? I do not need its physics body, just to show it. I know how to do it in UIKit and classic 2d UI Apple frameworks but here working with model entities it gets a bit tricky for me. Here is example of how it would look, examples are in 2d but you can imagine it being 3d cylinders with a cut-out. Thank you!
