I am using the latest version of the Game Center plugin for Unity and have noticed that my game will crash on launch when trying to authenticate. I've tried this in an empty project with just the plugin and it still crashes with this exception.

Hi there, Is it possible to customize the Metal Performance HUD on Apple TV, similar to how it can be done on iPhone & iPad? Would like to see things like Compiled Shaders for my Apps on tvOS .

In a Unity game, if the assetBundle.Unloadinterface is called very frequently during normal gameplay, it can cause the game application's screen to freeze, although the background music continues to play normally. This issue only occurs on iPhone 16 and iPhone 17 models, with no problems on lower-version phones. How can this problem be resolved?

Hello Everyone I am new here, I am testing game center integration and using a development build of my IOS game. I have set up a couple of achievements in app store connect, but when I trigger them in the game then they do not unlock or show up. Okay so i am signed into the game center with a sandbox account on a test advice. Is there anything else I need to configure, or do achievements usually only work after the game is released?. I will appreciate any guidance… Thanks in Advance!!!

Does anyone know if we will be able to airplay content from another Apple device, say an iPad or iPhone to the Vision Pro?

Hi, I'm rewriting my game from SceneKit to RealityKit, and I'm having trouble implementing the following scenario: I tap on the iPhone screen to select an Entity that I want to drag. If an Entity was tapped, it should then be possible to drag it left, right, etc. SceneKit solution: func CGPointToSCNVector3(_ view: SCNView, depth: Float, point: CGPoint) -> SCNVector3 { let projectedOrigin = view.projectPoint(SCNVector3Make(0, 0, Float(depth))) let locationWithz = SCNVector3Make(Float(point.x), Float(point.y), Float(projectedOrigin.z)) return view.unprojectPoint(locationWithz) } and then I was calling: SCNView().hitTest(location, options: [SCNHitTestOption.firstFoundOnly:true]) the code was called inside of the UIPanGestureRecognizer in my UIViewController. Could I reuse that code or should I go with the SwiftUI approach - something like that: var body: some View { RealityView { .... } .gesture(TapGesture().onEnded { }) ? I already have this code: @State private var location: CGPoint? .onTapGesture { location in self.location = location } I'm trying to identify the entity that was tapped within the RealityView like that: RealityView { content in let box: ModelEntity = createBox() // for now there is only one box, however there will be many boxes content.add(box) let anchor = AnchorEntity(world: [0, 0, 0]) content.add(anchor) _ = content.subscribe(to: SceneEvents.Update.self) { event in //TODO: find tapped entity, so that it could be dragged inside of the DragGesture() } Any help would be appreciated. I also noticed that if I create a TapGesture like that: TapGesture(count: 1) .targetedToAnyEntity() and add it to my view using .gesture() then it is not triggered.

在正常游戏中，如果非常频繁的调用assetBundle.Unload接口，会导致游戏应用画面卡死，但是游戏的背景音乐仍然正常播放。这类问题仅发生在iphone16 和iphone17的手机上，低版本的手机没有任何问题，请问该如何解决这个问题？

This week, I developed a small multiplatform RealityKit project. I also created a demo scene in Reality Composer Pro. Afterward, I imported the local package into the project. Running the project on macOS works perfectly. However, when I tried to run it on my iPhone, I encountered a permission error indicating that it couldn’t read the package. This seems unusual to me because I assumed that the dependency is bundled into the binary file. In an attempt to resolve the issue, I pushed the RCP package to GitHub, hoping it would work. Fortunately, everything compiles successfully now, but the loading time is significantly long, and the animations don’t play on tap gestures. Could someone please help me identify the root cause of this problem?

Since macOS 15.3.2, we have observed that when another window is moved near the App Store's install button, the button disappears. We have attached a related video in the Feedback submission here https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/20444423 Our application overlays a transparent, watermark-window on top of the system window, which causes the install button in the App Store to be hidden when a user attempts to install an application.Could you advise on how to avoid this issue?

So I get JPEG data in my app. Previously I was using the higher level NSBitmapImageRep API and just feeding the JPEG data to it. But now I've noticed on Sonoma If I get a JPEG in the CMYK color space the NSBitmapImageRep renders mostly black and is corrupted. So I'm trying to drop down to the lower level APIs. Specifically I grab a CGImageRef and and trying to use the Accelerate API to convert it to another format (to hopefully workaround the issue... CGImageRef sourceCGImage = `CGImageCreateWithJPEGDataProvider(jpegDataProvider,` NULL, shouldInterpolate, kCGRenderingIntentDefault); Now I use vImageConverter_CreateWithCGImageFormat... with the following values for source and destination formats: Source format: (derived from sourceCGImage) bitsPerComponent = 8 bitsPerPixel = 32 colorSpace = (kCGColorSpaceICCBased; kCGColorSpaceModelCMYK; Generic CMYK Profile) bitmapInfo = kCGBitmapByteOrderDefault version = 0 decode = 0x000060000147f780 renderingIntent = kCGRenderingIntentDefault Destination format: bitsPerComponent = 8 bitsPerPixel = 24 colorSpace = (DeviceRBG) bitmapInfo = 8197 version = 0 decode = 0x0000000000000000 renderingIntent = kCGRenderingIntentDefault But vImageConverter_CreateWithCGImageFormat fails with kvImageInvalidImageFormat. Now if I change the destination format to use 32 bitsPerpixel and use alpha in the bitmap info the vImageConverter_CreateWithCGImageFormat does not return an error but I get a black image just like NSBitmapImageRep

Hi, I’m testing Unity’s Spaceship HDRP demo on iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPad Pro M4 (iOS 26.1). Everything renders correctly, and my custom MetalFX Spatial plugin initializes successfully — it briefly reports active scaling (e.g. 1434×660 → 2868×1320 at 50% scaling), then reverts to native rendering a few frames later. Setup: Xcode 16.1 (targeting iOS 18) Unity 2022.3.62f3 (HDRP) Metal backend Dynamic Resolution enabled in HDRP assets and cameras Relevant Xcode console excerpt: [MetalFXPlugin] MetalFX_Enable(True) called. [SpaceshipOptions] MetalFX enabled with HDRP dynamic resolution integration. [SpaceshipOptions] Disabled TAA for MetalFX Spatial. [SpaceshipOptions] Created runtime RenderTexture: 1434x660 [MetalFX] Spatial scaler created (1434x660 → 2868x1320). [MetalFX] Processed frame with scaler. [MetalFXPlugin] Sent RenderTexture (1434x660) to MetalFX. Output target 2868x1320. [SpaceshipOptions] MetalFX target set: 1434x660 [SpaceshipOptions] Camera targetTexture cleared after MetalFX handoff. It looks like HDRP clears the camera’s target texture right after MetalFX submits the frame, which causes it to revert to native rendering. Is there a recommended way to persist or rebind the MetalFX output texture when using HDRP on iOS? Unity doesn’t appear to support MetalFX in the Editor either: Thanks!

our app is live, and it appears that since the ios 18 update - the VideoMaterial renders pink / purple color instead of the video (picture attached). the audio is rendered properly. we found that it occurs on old devices: iPhone 11 & iPhone SE 2020. I've found this thread of Andy Jazz on stackoverflow: Steps to Reproduce: Create a plane for the video screen. Apply a VideoMaterial using AVPlayerItem. Anchor the model entity to an ARImageAnchor. Expected Outcome: The video should play as a material on the plane in RealityKit. Actual Outcome: On iOS 18, the plane appears pink, indicating the VideoMaterial isn’t applied. What I’ve Tried: -Verified the video URL is correct. -Checked that the AVPlayerItem and VideoMaterial are initialised correctly. -Ensured the AVPlayer is playing the video. I also tried different formats (mov / mp4 / m4v), and verifying that the video's status is readyToPlay. any suggestions?

Using Reality Composer Pro 2.0, I created a simple shader graph that displays a texture on an unlit surface: On visionOS 2 beta, I can successfully use ShaderGraphMaterial(named:from:in:) to load that shader graph material and assign it to a model entity. However, on visionOS 1.2 and earlier, either in Simulator or on the device, ShaderGraphMaterial(named:from:in:) fails and I see the following logged to the console: If, using Reality Composer Pro 1.0, I experimentally open the same project and delete and recreate exactly the same nodes above, then ShaderGraphMaterial(named:from:in:) works as expected on visionOS 1.2. Is it a known issue that Reality Composer 2 can't be used with visionOS 1? Is this intentional behavior? I've submitted feedback as FB14828873, including a sample project and repro steps. If possible, I would appreciate guidance from an Apple engineer, like "This is a known issue for [list of node types]" or "Reality Composer Pro 2 is not supported for visionOS 1 development, please refer to [documentation]" or "We recommend [workaround]." Thank you.

I use unity 2020.3.48f1 to develop a game; trying to implement Apple Services integration I use Apple unity plugins(https://github.com/apple/unityplugins) Using latest version of unity plugins I getting error in Unity project after plugin import It say "Not allowed platform VisionOS" When I tryed to use older version of the plugins I getting error on runtime when calling "var fetchItemsResponse = await GKLocalPlayer.Local.FetchItems();" in line 42 it drop EXC_BAD_ACCESS(code=257, address=0x0000...) error I tryed to use different commits from official repositorys and even custom branches of apple unity plugins like (https://github.com/muZZkat/unityplugins/tree/muzzkat/fix-fetch-items) but it did not help There is whole my script which trying to use apple unuity plugins using System.Threading.Tasks; using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; using System; using Apple.GameKit; using UnityEngine.UI; public class TheScript : MonoBehaviour { [SerializeField] InputField otp; string Signature; string TeamPlayerID; string Salt; string PublicKeyUrl; string Timestamp; void Start() { StartCoroutine(Call()); } private IEnumerator Call() { yield return new WaitForSeconds(5); Login(); } public async Task Login() { otp.text += $"Loginig...

I am trying to load some PNG data with MTKTextureLoader newTextureWithData，but the result shows wrong at the alpha area. Here is the code. I have an image URL, after it downloads successfully, I try to use the data or UIImagePNGRepresentation (image), they all show wrong. UIImage *tempImg = [UIImage imageWithData:data]; CGImageRef cgRef = tempImg.CGImage; MTKTextureLoader *loader = [[MTKTextureLoader alloc] initWithDevice:device]; id<MTLTexture> temp1 = [loader newTextureWithData:data options:@{MTKTextureLoaderOptionSRGB: @(NO), MTKTextureLoaderOptionTextureUsage: @(MTLTextureUsageShaderRead), MTKTextureLoaderOptionTextureCPUCacheMode: @(MTLCPUCacheModeWriteCombined)} error:nil]; NSData *tempData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(tempImg); id<MTLTexture> temp2 = [loader newTextureWithData:tempData options:@{MTKTextureLoaderOptionSRGB: @(NO), MTKTextureLoaderOptionTextureUsage: @(MTLTextureUsageShaderRead), MTKTextureLoaderOptionTextureCPUCacheMode: @(MTLCPUCacheModeWriteCombined)} error:nil]; id<MTLTexture> temp3 = [loader newTextureWithCGImage:cgRef options:@{MTKTextureLoaderOptionSRGB: @(NO), MTKTextureLoaderOptionTextureUsage: @(MTLTextureUsageShaderRead), MTKTextureLoaderOptionTextureCPUCacheMode: @(MTLCPUCacheModeWriteCombined)} error:nil]; }] resume];

I’m building an app that uses RealityKit and specifically ARConfiguration.FrameSemantics.personSegmentationWithDepth. The goal is to insert an AR object into the scene behind a person, and an additional AR object in front of the person, while being as photo realistic as possible. Through testing, I’ve noticed that many times, the edges of the person segmentation mask are not well matched to the actual person, and parts of the person are transparent, with the AR object bleeding through. It’s sort of like a “bad green screen” effect, which I’d expect to see a little bit, but not to this extent. I’ve been testing on iPhone 16, iPhone 14 Pro, iPad Pro 12.9 inch 6th Generation, and iPhone 12 Pro, with similar results across all devices. I’m wondering what else I can do to improve this… either code changes, platform (like different iPhone models), or environment (like lighting, distance, etc). Attaching some example screen grabs and a minimum reproducible code sample. Appreciate any insights! import ARKit import SwiftUI import RealityKit struct RealityViewContainer: UIViewRepresentable { func makeUIView(context: Context) -> ARView { let arView = ARView(frame: .zero) arView.environment.sceneUnderstanding.options.insert(.occlusion) arView.renderOptions.insert(.disableMotionBlur) arView.renderOptions.insert(.disableDepthOfField) let configuration = ARWorldTrackingConfiguration() configuration.planeDetection = [.horizontal] if ARWorldTrackingConfiguration.supportsFrameSemantics(.personSegmentationWithDepth) { configuration.frameSemantics.insert(.personSegmentationWithDepth) } arView.session.run(configuration) arView.session.delegate = context.coordinator context.coordinator.arView = arView } func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator { Coordinator(self) } class Coordinator: NSObject, ARSessionDelegate { var parent: RealityViewContainer var floorAnchor: ARPlaneAnchor? init(_ parent: RealityViewContainer) { self.parent = parent } func session(_ session: ARSession, didAdd anchors: [ARAnchor]) { if let arView,floorAnchor == nil { for anchor in anchors { if let horizontalPlaneAnchor = anchor as? ARPlaneAnchor, horizontalPlaneAnchor.alignment == .horizontal, horizontalPlaneAnchor.transform.columns.3.y < arView.cameraTransform.translation.y { // filter out ceiling floorAnchor = horizontalPlaneAnchor let backgroundEntity = BackgroundEntity() let anchorEntity = AnchorEntity(anchor: horizontalPlaneAnchor) anchorEntity.addChild(background) let foregroundEntity = ForegroundEntity() backgroundEntity.addChild(foregroundEntity) arView.scene.addAnchor(anchorEntity) arView.installGestures([.rotation, .translation], for: backgroundEntity) break // Stop after adding the first horizontal plane (floor) } } } } } }

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.)

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.

Hello, MacOS 26 Betas are limiting games (noticeably, games that use java) to the native display of the MacBook Pro (120hz). Even connecting an external display this is not changing. I have submitted a bug report, but I have not had any responses to it yet. I am looking to see if anyone may have an answer or fix to this issue. Thanks!
