As the title states, I’ve been trying to emulate some older Direct9 games, and rosetta can’t handle it because of that
https://github.com/WineAndAqua/rosettax87 I’ve had to use this, but it really seems like something that I shouldn’t have to do
I’ve tried Wineskin, wine, D9VK, MoltenVK, GPTk, and the only thing that’s close to working is using devel wine + d9vk with the xrosetta87 running like its a VPN, and then you play
Without xrosetta87 it’s 0-0.5 FPS? with it, it’s like a buttery smooth 60+

Hello,
Thank you for attending today’s Metal & game technologies group lab at WWDC25!
We were delighted to answer many questions from developers and energized by the community engagement.
We hope you enjoyed it and welcome your feedback.
We invite you to carry on the conversation here, particularly if your question appeared in Slido and we were unable to answer it during the lab.
If your question received feedback let us know if you need clarification.
You may want to ask your question again in a different lab e.g. visionOS tomorrow.
(We realize that this can be confusing when frameworks interoperate)
We have a lot to learn from each other so let’s get to Q&A and make the best of WWDC25! 😃
Looking forward to your questions posted in new threads.
Imagine a native macOS app that acts as a "launcher" for a Java game.** For example, the "launcher" app might use the Swift Process API or a similar method to run the java command line tool (lets assume the user has installed Java themselves) to run the game.
I have seen How to Enable Game Mode. If the native launcher app's Info.plist has the following keys set:
LSApplicationCategoryType set to public.app-category.games
LSSupportsGameMode set to true (for macOS 26+)
GCSupportsGameMode set to true
The launcher itself can cause Game Mode to activate if the launcher is fullscreened. However, if the launcher opens a Java process that opens a window, then the Java window is fullscreened, Game Mode doesn't seem to activate. In this case activating Game Mode for the launcher itself is unnecessary, but you'd expect Game Mode to activate when the actual game in the Java window is fullscreened.
Is there a way to get Game Mode to activate in the latter case?
** The concrete case I'm thinking of is a third-party Minecraft Java Edition launcher, but the issue can also be demonstrated in a sample project (FB13786152). It seems like the official Minecraft launcher is able to do this, though it's not clear how. (Is its bundle identifier hardcoded in the OS to allow for this? Changing a sample app's bundle identifier to be the same as the official Minecraft launcher gets the behavior I want, but obviously this is not a practical solution.)
Hey all — I’ve been building out my first set of Game Center Achievements for a game I’m working on, and I’ve run into something odd with the image quality.
The specs say to upload icons at 512x512 or 1024x1024@2x. I’ve been uploading 1024x1024 PNGs (without explicitly naming them “@2x” since there’s only one upload slot), assuming that Game Center would just handle the scaling automatically — kind of like how a lot of things are getting more streamlined across platforms lately.
But in testing, the icons are showing up a bit blurry, especially in the Game Center interface. It’s not horrible, but it’s definitely softer than I expected — more like low-res than Retina.
All my test devices (outside the Simulator) are running iOS 26, so I’m also wondering if this might be a beta-related display bug?
Has anyone else run into this? Curious if I’m missing a best practice here, or if I really do need to ensure I’m uploading it with the @2x suffix, or maybe something else entirely?
Thanks!
On an iPad running iPadOS 26 beta 4, when tapping the Game Center Access Point, the overlay doesn’t show the configured achievements, leaderboards or challenges.
I should specify this is an in-development app and the achievements and leaderboards are in the “Not Live” state, however they show on other devices running iOS 18 in the Access Point UI.
Anyone else having this issue? If so, how should I test achievements and leaderboards while iOS 26 beta is out?
The UI looks like this on iPadOS 26:
Hi,
Since iOS 26 introduced the new Games app, I’ve noticed a problem when using a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller in wired USB-C mode, and also with third-party controllers that emulate it (like the GameSir X5 Lite).
In the Games app interface, only the L/R buttons respond, but the D-Pad and analog sticks don’t work at all. Once inside actual games, the controller works fine — the issue only affects the Games app UI.
What I’ve tested so far:
Xbox / PlayStation controllers → work fine in both wired and Bluetooth, including inside the Games app.
Switch Pro Controller (Bluetooth) → works fine, including in the Games app.
Switch Pro Controller (wired) → same issue as the X5 Lite, D-Pad and sticks don’t work in the Games app.
This makes it hard to use the new Games app launcher with these controllers, even though they work perfectly once a game is launched.
My question: is this an iOS bug (Apple needs to add proper support for wired Switch Pro controllers in the Games app), or something that Nintendo / GameSir would need to address?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can confirm this or provide more info.
I can't create any breakpoint in my Xcode after I upgraded to macOS 15.4
macOS: Version 15.4 (24E248)
visionOS Simulator: 2.3
Xcode: Version 16.2 (16C5032a)
My app works well without any breakpoints.
But if I create any breakpoint it shows me this:
Couldn't find the Objective-C runtime library in loaded images.

I am using Apple's original Lightning Digital AV-adapter (Lightning-to-HDMI dongle) to connect my iPhone to an external display via a HDMI cable.
I need to synchronize rendering with the external display's refresh rate, so I create a new CADisplayLink tied to the external display's UIScreen: UIScreen.screens[externalDisplayIdx].displayLink(withTarget:, selector:).
The callback is being called regularly, but with increasing delay relative to the CADisplayLink.timestamp, so the next time the callback is called, I have less and less time to draw the next frame (see the snippet below).
Assuming 60 FPS, the value of secondsTillDeadline starts at an arbitrary value in the range of approx -0.0001 to 0.0166667, and then it slowly decreases towards zero (and for a brief period it goes into small negative numbers). Once it reaches zero, it flips back to 0.0166667 and continues to decrease again. This cycle repeats indefinitely.
Changing the external display's resolution (UIScreen's mode) or the CADisplayLink's preferredFrameRateRange to a lower FPS does not seem to have any effect on the temporal drifting (even the rate of change seem to be the same).
When I create a new CADisplayLink for the iPhone's main screen, the value of secondsTillDeadline is stable, it does not drift and it is very close to 0.0166667, as expected.
Is this drift caused by the external monitor or by Apple's Lightning-to-HDMI dongle ...or is the problem somewhere else?
Can the drifting be stopped?
func onDisplayLinkUpdate(displayLink: CADisplayLink) {
// Gradually decreases from 0.01667 to -0.0001, then flips back to 0.01667 and continues to decrease
let secondsTillDeadline = displayLink.targetTimestamp - CACurrentMediaTime()
}
What is the current [most recent] best practice to instancing Meshes in RealityKit?
I see both MeshInstanceComponent and MeshInstanceCollection.
My intent is to bind a transform to a Circle Agent (GameplayKit Agent), and feed that result to Instancing.
I am develop visionOS app. I am now very interested in Metal and Compositor Services, but I have not explored them in depth. I know that Metal has a higher degree of control freedom. I am wondering if using Compositor Services will have fewer functions than RealityKit in AR technology (such as scene reconstruction and understanding, hover effect, etc.).
I'm having a heck of a time getting this to work. I'm trying to add an event notification at the end of a timeline animation to trigger something in code but I'm not receiving the notification from RC Pro. I've watched that Compose Interactive 3D Content video quite a few times now and have tried many different ways. RC Pro has the correct ID names on the notifications. I'm not a programmer at all. Just a lowly 3D artist. Here is my code...
import SwiftUI
import RealityKit
import RealityKitContent
extension Notification.Name {
static let button1Pressed = Notification.Name("button1pressed")
static let button2Pressed = Notification.Name("button2pressed")
static let button3Pressed = Notification.Name("button3pressed")
}
struct MainButtons: View {
@State private var transitionToNextSceneForButton1 = false
@State private var transitionToNextSceneForButton2 = false
@State private var transitionToNextSceneForButton3 = false
@Environment(AppModel.self) var appModel
@Environment(\.dismissWindow) var dismissWindow
// Notification publishers for each button
private let button1PressedReceived = NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: .button1Pressed)
private let button2PressedReceived = NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: .button2Pressed)
private let button3PressedReceived = NotificationCenter.default.publisher(for: .button3Pressed)
var body: some View {
ZStack {
RealityView { content in
// Load your RC Pro scene that contains the 3D buttons.
if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "MainButtons", in: realityKitContentBundle) {
content.add(immersiveContentEntity)
}
}
// Optionally attach a gesture if you want to debug a generic tap:
.gesture(
TapGesture().targetedToAnyEntity().onEnded { value in
print("3D Object tapped")
_ = value.entity.applyTapForBehaviors()
// Do not post a test notification here—rely on RC Pro timeline events.
}
)
}
.onAppear {
dismissWindow(id: "main")
// Remove any test notification posting code.
}
// Listen for distinct button notifications.
.onReceive(button1PressedReceived) { (output) in
print("Button 1 pressed notification received")
transitionToNextSceneForButton1 = true
}
.onReceive(button2PressedReceived.receive(on: DispatchQueue.main)) { _ in
print("Button 2 pressed notification received")
transitionToNextSceneForButton2 = true
}
.onReceive(button3PressedReceived.receive(on: DispatchQueue.main)) { _ in
print("Button 3 pressed notification received")
transitionToNextSceneForButton3 = true
}
// Present next scenes for each button as needed. For example, for button 1:
.fullScreenCover(isPresented: $transitionToNextSceneForButton1) {
FacilityTour()
.environment(appModel)
}
// You can add additional fullScreenCover modifiers for button 2 and 3 transitions.
}
}

I'm updating our app to support metal 4, but the metal 4 types don't seem to get recognized when targeting simulator. Is it known if metal 4 will be supported in the near future, or am I setting up the app wrong?
I've had no issue calling image files in my .swift files, but they are causing crashes when used in my .SKS files. When I set a sprite texture to an image in the inspector/ editor bar, at runtime when that sprite is being called I get the error: "Cannot get value with size 16. The type encoded as {CGRect={CGPoint=dd}{CGSize=dd}} is expected to be 32 bytes." From my research it has something to do with Apple switching from 32 to 64 bite machines. From chatGPT “SpriteKit under the hood uses NSKeyedUnarchiver to load your .sks file. That unarchiver decodes each archived property by reading a fixed‑size blob of bytes and mapping it into a C struct. In your case it ran into a mismatch”. I am using a 64-bite machine to write my code and 64-bite simulators and physical devices, so there isn't a clear cause of the mismatch. My scenes play fine in Xcode 16's preview window and my code builds, it just crashes at runtime.
When I don’t use image textured assets in the SKS file it works fine. It loads animated labels, and plain color squares. I’ve been able to work around this for static things like a sprite with a background texture by. in a normal non-game swift file, writing code like:
if let scene = SKScene(fileNamed: "GameScene2") {
let bg = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "YourBackgroundImage")
bg.position = CGPoint(x: scene.frame.midX, y: scene.frame.midY)
bg.zPosition = -1
scene.addChild(bg)
}
The issue now is I want to make a particle emitter and other non static sprites, but my understanding of their properities isn’t deep enough to create them without the editor. Also when I set SKTexture in a swift file that causes the same runtime crash with the 16/32 error. Could you help me figure out how to fix the bug so I can use the editor again? Otherwise could you help me figure out how to write a workaround like I do for background images? I have a feeling the answer is in writing my own NSKeyedUnarchiver but I don’t know how to make sure it’s called instead of the default one. I've already tried cleaning my code multiple times and deleting and reading sprite nodes. Thank you.
Hello,
I have noticed a performance drop on SpriteKit-based projects running on iOS 26.0 (23A341).
Below is a SpriteKit scene used to test framerate on different devices:
import SpriteKit
import SwiftUI
class BareboneScene: SKScene {
override func didMove(to view: SKView) {
size = view.bounds.size
anchorPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.5, y: 0.5)
backgroundColor = .darkGray
let roundedSquare = SKShapeNode(rectOf: CGSize(width: 150, height: 75), cornerRadius: 12)
roundedSquare.fillColor = .systemRed
roundedSquare.strokeColor = .black
roundedSquare.lineWidth = 3
addChild(roundedSquare)
let action = SKAction.rotate(byAngle: .pi, duration: 1)
roundedSquare.run(.repeatForever(action))
}
}
struct BareboneSceneView: View {
var body: some View {
SpriteView(
scene: BareboneScene(),
debugOptions: [.showsFPS]
)
.ignoresSafeArea()
}
}
#Preview {
BareboneSceneView()
}
The scene is very simple, yet framerate drops to ~40 fps as shown by the Metal HUD. Tested on:
iPhone 13, iOS 26.0: framerate drops to 40 fps. Sometimes it runs at near 60fps. But if the screen is touched repeatedly, the framerate drops to 40-50 fps again.
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 26.0: ~40fps.
iPad 9th Gen, iOS 18.6.2: 60fps, no issues.
See screenshots attached. These numbers were observed by me and members of our beloved SpriteKit Discord server.
Thank you for your attention.
