Hi, I am using xCode26.x. But my Metal4 classes are not compiling. I downloaded the sample code from Apple's website - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/Metal/processing-a-texture-in-a-compute-function. For example, I am getting errors like "Cannot find protocol declaration for 'MTL4CommandQueue'; I have hit a deadline. Any recommendations are very welcome. I have downloaded the Metal Tool chain. When I run the following commands on the terminal - xcodebuild -showComponent metalToolchain ; xcrun -f metal ; xcrun metal --version I get the following response - Asset Path: /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_MetalToolchain/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded.asset/AssetData Build Version: 17A321 Status: installed Toolchain Identifier: com.apple.dt.toolchain.Metal.32023 Toolchain Search Path: /Users/private/Library/Developer/DVTDownloads/MetalToolchain/mounts/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded /Users/private/Library/Developer/DVTDownloads/MetalToolchain/mounts/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded/Metal.xctoolchain/usr/bin/metal Apple metal version 32023.830 (metalfe-32023.830.2) Target: air64-apple-darwin24.6.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Users/private/Library/Developer/DVTDownloads/MetalToolchain/mounts/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded/Metal.xctoolchain/usr/metal/current/bin

I am trying to install the Game Porting Toolkit 2.1 according to the Readme file provided with the toolkit.

The following minimal snippet SEGFAULTS with SDK 26.0 and 26.1. Won't crash if I remove async from the enclosing function signature - but it's impractical in a real project. import Metal import MetalPerformanceShaders let SEED = UInt64(0x0) typealias T = Float16 /* Why ran in async context? Because global GPU object, and async makeMTLFunction, and async makeMTLComputePipelineState. Nevertheless, can trigger the bug without using global @MainActor let myGPU = MyGPU() */ @main struct CMDLine { static func main() async { let ptr = UnsafeMutablePointer<T>.allocate(capacity: 0) async let future: Void = randomFillOnGPU(ptr, count: 0) print("Main thread is playing around") await future print("Successfully reached the end.") } static func randomFillOnGPU(_ buf: UnsafeMutablePointer<T>, count destbufcount: Int) async { // let (device, queue) = await (myGPU.device, myGPU.commandqueue) let myGPU = MyGPU() let (device, queue) = (myGPU.device, myGPU.commandqueue) // Init MTLBuffer, async let makeFunction, makeComputePipelineState, etc. let tempDataType = MPSDataType.uInt32 let randfiller = MPSMatrixRandomMTGP32(device: device, destinationDataType: tempDataType, seed: Int(bitPattern:UInt(SEED))) print("randomFillOnGPU: successfully created MPSMatrixRandom.") // try await computePipelineState // ^ Crashes before this could return // Or in this minimal case, after randomFillOnGPU() returns // make encoder, set pso, dispatch, commit... } } actor MyGPU { let device : MTLDevice let commandqueue : MTLCommandQueue init() { guard let dev: MTLDevice = MPSGetPreferredDevice(.skipRemovable), let cq = dev.makeCommandQueue(), dev.supportsFamily(.apple6) || dev.supportsFamily(.mac2) else { print("Unable to get Metal Device!

Apparently objc autorelease pool is releasing the wrong address during context switch (across suspension points). I wonder why such obvious case has not been caught before.

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?

I am trying to use Broadcast upload extension but Broadcast picker starts countdown and stops (swiftUI). Steps i followed. added BroadcastUploadExtension as target same app group for for main app and extension added packages using SPM i seems the extension functions are not getting triggered, i check using UIScreen.main.isCaptured also which always comes as false. i tried Using Logs which never Appeared.

I have a question I guess more for the Apple team. But why are there no totally 3D experiences for the Vision Pro lineup? I know they have given us tools to implement unity 3D games into iPhone and I guess you can also build it in RealityKit. But why at this moment are 3D games limited to just iPad and iPhone and can't you bring that into Vision Pro? Just to explain. When I say a totally 3D game, I mean games like Gorn. I mean the Vision Pro is definitely powerful enough, but it just feels limited to tabletop games and AR games. Is this something Apple is thinking about implementing?

Hi, seems MSL is missing support for a clock() shader instruction available in other graphics APIs like Vulkan or OpenGL for example.. useful for counting cost in number of clock cycles of some code insider shader with much finer granularity than launching a micro kernel with same instructions and measuring cycles cost from CPU.. also useful for MoltenVK to support that extensions.. thanks..

I have run into an issue where I am trying to use atomic_float in a swift package but I cannot get things to compile because it appears that the Swift Package Manager doesn't support Metal 3 (atomic_float is Metal 3 functionality). Is there any way around this? I am using // swift-tools-version: 6.1 and my Metal code includes: #include <metal_stdlib> #include <metal_geometric> #include <metal_math> #include <metal_atomic> using namespace metal; kernel void test(device atomic_float* imageBuffer [[buffer(1)]], uint id [[ thread_position_in_grid ]]) { } But I get an error on the definition of atomic_float . Any help, one more importantly, where I could have found this information about this limitation, would be helpful. -RadBobby

I am developing a macOS terminal app, running on an M4 Pro, and using Metal. I am not able use float8 or float16, both reporting Variable has incomplete type 'float16' (aka '__Reserved_Name__Do_not_use_float16'). Based on the system I should be able to use these. Either it is because it is also compiling to Intel, which they are not allowed, or something else. Either way I have not been able to figure out how to get past this. IIs there a compiler setting I need to set to make this work? if so which one and what setting do I need? I only want to run this on M processes, on the latest version of OS so not interested in Intel version or backward compatibility.

Hello! I'm a developer working on a plugin for the Elgato Stream Deck, called GPU Metrics. The plugin currently only works on Windows but I'd like to bring it to macOS. However, based on forum posts I've read (and StackOverflow) there isn't a very clear path to query GPU metrics like usage, temperature, used GPU memory, and power consumption. There are some tools out there that do similar things, but I wanted to see what would be the recommendation from Apple's engineering team to get this data via a public API. Requirements: Access GPU utilization, temperature, memory usage, power usage C/C++ based API for querying the metrics so I can expose the data to JavaScript via Node Addon No need to compatibile with Intel-based Macs, as Apple silicon will be fine for now Plugin GitHub Thank you!

I have been tasked with creating content for the Apple Vision Pro. Just the 3D content and animation, not the programming end of things. I can't seem to get any kind of mesh deformation animation to import into Reality Composer Pro. By that I mean bones/skin, or even point cache. I work on PC, and my main software is 3DS Max, but I'm borrowing an iMac for this job, and was instructed to use RCP on it for testing before handing things off to the programmer. My files open and play fine in other USD programs, like Omniverse, or USD View, just not Reality Composer Pro. I've seen the dinosaur demo in AVP, so I know mesh deformation is possible. If there are other essential tools that might make this possible, I have not been made aware of them. I am experimenting with bouncing things off of Blender, in case that exports better, but not really having luck there either -though my results are different. Thanks.

When running on my iPhone SE3 under IOS 18.4.1, achievement banners show as expected. The same code running on my iPad Air2 under IOS 15.8.4, achievement banners do not show, but they are accepted (as shown in the GameCenterViewController). The banners also don't show when running the simulator under iPhone 16 Pro Max under IOS 18.2 or simulator under iPhone SE3 under IOS 18.3. I haven't tried others. [Note that I clear the achievements each run during test so that I can duplicate this]

TLDR; I can't get QueueName to work with matchmaking a turn-based match in Unity using matchmaking rules. Long version: I'm using the apple unity plugin found here: https://github.com/apple/unityplugins/blob/main/plug-ins/Apple.GameKit/Apple.GameKit_Unity/Assets/Apple.GameKit/Documentation~/Apple.GameKit.md I have created a Queue, RuleSet and a simple Rule to match players by following these docs tightly: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/gamekit/finding-players-using-matchmaking-rules. Here is the single rule I have that drives matchmaking: { "data" : { "type" : "gameCenterMatchmakingRules", "id" : "[hiddden-rule-id]", "attributes" : { "referenceName" : "ComplimentaryFactionPreference", "description" : "default desc", "type" : "MATCH", "expression" : "requests[0].properties.preference != requests[1].properties.preference", "weight" : null }, "links" : { "self" : "https://api.appstoreconnect.apple.com/v1/gameCenterMatchmakingRules/[hidden-rule-id]" } }, "links" : { "self" : "https://api.appstoreconnect.apple.com/v1/gameCenterMatchmakingRules" } } which belongs to a rule set which belongs to a queue. I have verified these are setup and linked via the App Store Connect API. Additionally, when I tested queue-based matchmaking without a queue established, I got an error in Unity. Now, with this, I do not. However there is a problem when I attempt to use the queue for matchmaking. I have the basic C# function here: public override void StartSearch(NSMutableDictionary<NSString, NSObject> properties) { if (searching) return; base.StartSearch(properties); //Establish matchmaking requests _matchRequest = GKMatchRequest.Init(); _matchRequest.QueueName = _PreferencesToQueue(GetSerializedPreferences()); _matchRequest.Properties = properties; _matchRequest.MaxPlayers = PLAYERS_COUNT; _matchRequest.MinPlayers = PLAYERS_COUNT; _matchTask = GKTurnBasedMatch.Find(_matchRequest); } The _PreferencesToQueue(GetSerializedPreferences()); returns the exact name of the queue I added my ruleset to. After this function is called, I poll the task generated from the .Find(...) function. Every time I run this function, a new match is created almost instantly. No two players are ever added to the same match. Further, I'm running two built game instances, one on a mac and another on an ipad and when I simultaneously test, I am unable to join games this way. Can someone help me debug why I cannot seem to match make when using a queue based approach?

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

Hi, I'm trying to add game center challenges and activities to an already live game, but they are not appearing in game for testing, GameCenter, or the Games app. I know the game is setup with GameKit entitlements since this is a live game and it has working leaderboards and achievements. I've updated to Tahoe beta 8, added a challenge and activity on app store connect, added that to a new distribution and added that distribution to 'Add for Review' I'm using Unity and the Apple Unity plugin Not sure what other steps I'm missing Thanks

I've tried out a ParticleEmitter in Reality Composer Pro to produce a burst of particles that don't move (i.e. speed close to zero). When viewing from different angles, it clearly looks like the particles are rendered exactly in the wrong order, that is, front first and back last. In other words, back particles obscure front particles. I would prefer it the correct way around. I've only tried this interactively in Reality Composer Pro, not programmatically, but I assume I would get the same result. My Reality Composer Pro "File" (zipped): https://gert-rieger-edv.de/Posts/Post-1/RealityParticles.zip Screenshot: Click on the ParticleEmitter object, then on its Play button, then select the Particles tab and click on "Burst" a few times to get a few random particles.

I am currently using RealityKit (perspective camera) to render a character in my swiftUI app. The character has customization such as clothing items and hair and all objects are properly weighted to the rig. The way the model is setup in Blender is like so: Groups of objects that will be swapped (ex: Shoes -> Shoes objects) and an armature. I then export it to usdc with all objects active. This is the resulting hierarchy: Before exporting for the animation (armature modifier applied), I simply had to store the Model entities and swap them in but now when I export with the Armature Modifier applied, so that animations get exported, the ModelComponent gets flattened to the armature and swapping entities and applying new materials to them is no longer as simple. Here's a demo blend file and usdc export with a setup like mine, having an animated bone to swing a cube and sphere, to be swapped so that only one is visible https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/be2q6qcztc83z7c4gj1w0/AMapxWc_ip2KZ8oTOYDUMv8?rlkey=rcdaggcxq06dyen09mw5mqmem&st=bnc0d7j0&dl=0 This is how I'm loading the entity and removing a part, with the demo files import SwiftUI import RealityKit struct SwapDemoView: View { var body: some View { RealityView { content in let camera = PerspectiveCamera() camera.transform.translation = SIMD3(x: 0, y: 0.1, z: 3) guard let root = try? await Entity(named: "simpleSwapDemo") else { fatalError("simpleSwapDemo.usdc is not present") } print(root) // Get initial hierarchy guard let cube = root.findEntity(named: "Cube") else { fatalError("Entity cube doesn't exist") } cube.removeFromParent() // <-- Cube is still visible after removal print(root) // Get hierarchy to confirm removal of cube let resource = root.availableAnimations[0] root.playAnimation(resource.repeat()) content.add(root) content.add(camera) } .background(.white) } } And this is what the entity hierarchy looks like in RealityKit before cube removal ▿ 'root' : Entity, children: 1 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ AnimationLibraryComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Armature' : ModelEntity, children: 2 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ ModelComponent ⟐ SkeletalPosesComponent ⟐ AnimationLibraryComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Armature' : Entity ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Primitives' : Entity, children: 2 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Sphere' : Entity, children: 1 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Sphere' : Entity ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Cube' : Entity, children: 1 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Cube' : Entity ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform And here's the hierarchy after removal ▿ 'root' : Entity, children: 1 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ AnimationLibraryComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Armature' : ModelEntity, children: 2 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ ModelComponent ⟐ SkeletalPosesComponent ⟐ AnimationLibraryComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Armature' : Entity ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Primitives' : Entity, children: 1 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Sphere' : Entity, children: 1 ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform ▿ 'Sphere' : Entity ⟐ SynchronizationComponent ⟐ Transform And this is the result: What's the best practice here? Should animation be exported separately and then applied to the skeleton? If so, how is that achieved? I'm not really sure how to proceed here.
