Hi, following the recent deprecation of SceneKit, I'm trying to move a couple of my SceneKit projects to RealityKit. One thing I can't seem to find is how to change the content scale factor when using a RealityView in SwiftUI. It was really easy to do in SceneKit with just a SCNView property, and it seems that it's also possible when using ARView, but I can't find a way to do it with a RealityView. Maybe it's a SwiftUI limitation?

Im new in the Mac area but for sure not UE. Windows is a long process to packaging but it could be done. All the documentation for Epic and from the internet is basically non existent with exactly how to package a project within UE. I have Xcode installed which makes sense, agreed to terms and install for MacOS, I've been able to make a project for several weeks now and want to package for a test run for my friends to play on Windows. Now I just get this in the log: UATHelper: Packaging (Mac): ERROR: Failed to finalize the .app with Xcode.

I want to use reality to create a custom material that can use my own shader and support Mesh instancing (for rendering 3D Gaussian splating), but I found that CustomMaterial does not support VisionOS. Is there any other interface that can achieve my needs? Where can I find examples?

Hello I would like to know how to combine 2 animations with RealityKit (one animation for the arms and one for the legs for example) I saw this apple demo that seems to explain it but I don't understand at all how to do it... Thanks

The sample code here, has code like: // Create a display link capable of being used with all active displays cvReturn = CVDisplayLinkCreateWithActiveCGDisplays(&_displayLink); But that function's doc says it's deprecated and to use NSView/NSWindow/NSScreen displayLink instead. That returns CADisplayLink, not CVDisplayLink. Also the documentation for that displayLink method is completely empty. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to add it to run loop, or what, after I get it. It would be nice to get an updated version of this sample project and/or have some documentation in NSView.displayLink

Does anyone have a working example on how to play OGG files with swift? I've been trying for over a year now. I was able to wrap the C Vorbis library in swift. I then used it to parse an OGG file successfully. Then I was required to use Obj-C&#92;&#43;+ to fill the PCM because this method seems to only be available in C&#92;&#43;+ and that part hangs my app for a good 40 seconds to several minutes depending on the audio file, it then plays for about 2 seconds and then crashes. I can't get the examples on the Vorbis site to work in objective-c and i tried every example on github I could find (most of which are for iOS - I want to play the files on mac) I also tried using Cricket Audio framework below. https://github.com/sjmerel/ck It has a swift example and it can play their proprietary soundbank format but it is also supposed to play OGG and it just doesn't do anything when trying to play OGG as you can see in the posted issue https://github.com/sjmerel/ck/issues/3 Right now I believe every player that can play OGGs on mac is written in Objective-C or C++. Anyway, any help/advice is appreciated. OGG format is very prevalent in the gaming community. I could use unity, which I believe plays oggs through the mono framework but I really really want to stay in swift.

When I take a frame capture of my application in Xcode, it shows a warning that reads "Your application created separate command encoders which can be combined into a single encoder. By combining these encoders you may reduce your application's load/store bandwidth usage." In the minimal reproduction case I've identified for this warning, I have two render pipeline states: The first writes to the current drawable, the depth buffer, and a secondary color buffer. The second writes only to the current drawable. Because these are writing to a different set of outputs, I was initially creating two separate render command encoders to handle the draws under each of these states. My understanding is that Xcode is telling me I could only create one, however when I try to do that, I get runtime asserts when attempting to apply the second render pipeline state since it doesn't have a matching attachment configured for the second color buffer or for the depth buffer, so I can't just combine the encoders. Is the only solution here to detect and propagate forward the color/depth attachments from the first state into the creation of the second state? Is there any way to suppress this specific warning in Xcode?

Hello, I'm getting this error when launching a SpriteKit Swift game in iOS 18+ on an iPhone 11 Pro, whose shell is partly damaged in the back: CHHapticEngine.mm:1206 -[CHHapticEngine doStartWithCompletionHandler:]_block_invoke: ERROR: Player start failed: The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.CoreHaptics error 1852797029.) Haptics do not work on this device, due to the damaged shell, so some error — which obviously occurs when calling start(completionHandler:) — is definitely expected; what is not expected is the main thread sometimes blocking for up to 5 seconds — although the method is not called from the main thread... the error itself is always displayed from some other secondary (system) thread. During this time, the main thread does not access the haptics engine at all; on average, it blocks once every four or five launches. In each launch (blocking or not), the 'nope' error is displayed ~5 seconds after trying to start the engine. After going nuts with all kinds of breakpoints and instrumentation, I'm at a loss as to why the main thread would sometimes block... Ideas, anyone? Thank you, D.

Description: In the official visionOS 26 Hover Effect sample code project , I encountered an issue where the event.trackingAreaIdentifier returned by onSpatialEvent does not reset as expected. Steps to Reproduce: Select an object with trackingAreaID = 6 in the sample app. Look at a blank space (outside any tracking area) and perform a pinch gesture . Expected Behavior: The event.trackingAreaIdentifier should return 0 when interacting with a non-tracking area. Actual Behavior: The event.trackingAreaIdentifier still returns 6, even after restarting the app or killing the process. This persists regardless of where the pinch gesture is performed

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.

What is Game Mode? Game Mode optimizes your gaming experience by giving your game the highest priority access to your CPU and GPU, lowering usage for background tasks. And it doubles the Bluetooth sampling rate, which reduces input latency and audio latency for wireless accessories like game controllers and AirPods. See Use Game Mode on Mac See Port advanced games to Apple platforms How can I enable Game Mode in my game? Add the Supports Game Mode property (GCSupportsGameMode) to your game’s Info.plist and set to true Correctly identify your game’s Application Category with LSApplicationCategoryType (also Info.plist) Note: Enabling Game Mode makes your game eligible but is not a guarantee; the OS decides if it is ok to enable Game Mode at runtime An app that enables Game Mode but isn’t a game will be rejected by App Review. How can I disable Game Mode? Set GCSupportsGameMode to false. Note: On Mac Game Mode is automatically disabled if the game isn’t running full screen.

Hi , My application meet below crash backtrace at very low repro rate from the public users, i do not see it relate to a specific iOS version or iPhone model. The last code line from my application is calling CAMetalLayer nextDrawable API. I did some basic studying, suppose it may relate to the wrong CAMetaLayer configuration, like frame property w or h <= 0.0 bounds property w or h <= 0.0 drawableSize w or h <= 0.0 or w or h > max value (like 16384) Not sure my above thinking is right or not? Will the UIView which my CAMetaLayer attached will cause such nextDrawable crash or not ?

I am using Unreal Engine 5.6 on a MacBook Pro with an M3 chip and macOS 15.5. I’ve installed Xcode and accepted the license, but Unreal is not detecting the latest Metal Shader Standard (Metal v3.0). The maximum version Unreal sees is Metal v2.4, even though the hardware and OS should support Metal 3.0. I’ve also run sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app and accepted the license via Terminal. Is there anything in Xcode settings, SDK availability, or system permissions that could be preventing access to Metal 3.0 features?"

TL;DR: RealityKit and Reality Composer Pro aren't forward or backward compatible with each other, and the resulting error message is terse and unhelpful. (FB14828873) So far, I've been sticking with Xcode 16.4 for development and only using Xcode 26.0 beta experimentally. Yesterday, I used xcode-select to switch to Xcode 26.0 beta 3 to test it, but I forgot to switch back. Consequently, this morning I unintentionally used the future Reality Composer Pro (the version included with Xcode 26) to make a small change to a USD file. Now I realize that if I'm unlucky, it's possible Reality Composer Pro may have silently introduced a small change into the USD file that may make RealityKit fail to read the file on iOS 18 and visionOS 2, which in the past has resulted in hours of debugging to track down the source of the failure, often a single line in the USD file that RealityKit can't communicate to me other than with the error "the operation couldn't be completed". As an analogy, this situation is as if, during regular development (not involving Reality Composer Pro), Xcode didn't warn you about specific API version conflicts, but instead failed with a generic error message, without highlighting the line in your Swift file that was the source of the error.

Hello RealityKit developers, I'm currently working on physics simulations in my visionOS app and am trying to adapt the concepts from the official sample Simulating physics joints in your RealityKit app. In the sample, a sphere is connected to the ceiling using a PhysicsRevoluteJoint to create a hinge-like simulation. I've successfully modified this setup to use a PhysicsSphericalJoint instead. The basic replacement works as expected: pin1 (attached to the sphere) rotates freely around pin0 (attached to the ceiling), much like a ball-and-socket joint should, removing all translational degrees of freedom. My challenge lies with the PhysicsSphericalJoint's angularLimitInYZ property. The documentation mentions that this property allows limiting the rotation around the Y and Z axes, defining an "elliptical cone shape around the x-axis of pin0." However, I'm struggling to understand how to specify these values to achieve a desired rotational limit. If I have a sphere that is currently capable of rotating 360 degrees around pin0 (like a free-spinning ball on a string), how would I use angularLimitInYZ to restrict its rotation to a certain height or angular range, preventing it from completing a full circle? Specifically, I'm trying to achieve a "swing" like behavior where the sphere oscillates back and forth but cannot rotate completely overhead or underfoot. What values or approach should I use for the angularLimitInYZ tuple to define such a restricted pendulum-like motion? Any insights, code examples, or explanations on how to properly configure angularLimitInYZ for this kind of behavior would be incredibly helpful! The following code is modified from the sample. extension MainView { func addPinsTo(ballEntity: Entity, attachmentEntity: Entity) throws { let hingeOrientation = simd_quatf(from: [1, 0, 0], to: [0, 0, 1]) let attachmentPin = attachmentEntity.pins.set( named: "attachment_hinge", position: .zero, orientation: hingeOrientation ) let relativeJointLocation = attachmentEntity.position( relativeTo: ballEntity ) let ballPin = ballEntity.pins.set( named: "ball_hinge", position: relativeJointLocation, orientation: hingeOrientation ) // Create a PhysicsSphericalJoint between the two pins. let revoluteJoint = PhysicsSphericalJoint(pin0: attachmentPin, pin1: ballPin) try revoluteJoint.addToSimulation() } } The following image is a screenshot of the operation when changing to PhysicsSphericalJoint. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hello everyone, I'm working on a visionOS application using RealityKit and am encountering a common coordinate system challenge when integrating 3D models created in Blender. My goal is to display and dynamically update the Transform (position, rotation, scale) of models created in Blender within RealityKit. The issue arises because Blender's default coordinate system is Z-up, and while exporting to USD/USDZ, I don't have a reliable "Y-up" export option that correctly reorients the model and its transform data for RealityKit's Y-up convention. This means I'm essentially exporting models with their "up" direction along the Z-axis. When I load these Z-up exported models into RealityKit, they are often oriented incorrectly. To then programmatically update their Transform (e.g., move them, rotate them based on game logic, or apply physics), I need to ensure that the Transform values I set align with RealityKit's Y-up system, even though the original model data was authored in a Z-up context. My questions are: What is the recommended transformation process (e.g., using simd_quatf or simd_float4x4) to convert a Transform that was conceptually defined in a Z-up coordinate system to RealityKit's Y-up coordinate system? Specifically, when I have a Transform (or its translation, rotation, scale components) from a Z-up context, how should I apply this to a RealityKit Entity so it appears and behaves correctly in a Y-up world? Are there any existing convenience APIs or helper functions within RealityKit, simd, or other Apple frameworks that simplify this Z-up to Y-up Transform conversion process? Or is a manual application of a transformation quaternion (e.g., simd_quatf(angle: -.pi / 2, axis: [1, 0, 0])) the standard approach? Any guidance, code examples, or best practices from those who have faced similar challenges would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

The following code using the new GestureComponent demonstrates inconsistency. The tap gesture prints output, but the drag gesture does not. I already checked this post, which points to this seemingly outdated sample code I assume that example is deprecated in favour of the now built in version of GestureComponent. Nonetheless, there are no compiler warnings or errors, it just fails silently. TapGesture, LongPressGesture, MagnifyGesture, RotateGesture all work, so this feels like an oversight. RealityView { content in let testEntity = ModelEntity(mesh: .generateBox(size: .init(x: 1, y: 1, z: 1))) testEntity.position = SIMD3<Float>(0,0,-1) testEntity.components.set(InputTargetComponent()) testEntity.components.set(CollisionComponent( shapes: [.generateBox(size: .init(x: 1, y: 1, z: 1))] )) let testGesture = TapGesture() .onEnded { value in print("Tapped") } testEntity.components.set(GestureComponent(testGesture)) let dragGesture = DragGesture() .onEnded { value in print("Dragged") } testEntity.components.set(GestureComponent(dragGesture)) content.add(testEntity) }
