Hello! I have a question about how thread groups work with tile shading. When running "traditional" compute, I get to choose both thread group size and the grid size. However, when using tile shading kernel I only have dispatchThreadsPerTile method - this controls how many threads will be ran in each tile. So far so good, but what about thread groups? The examples in video "Tile Shading on A11" seem to suggest that there will be only one thread group per tile. In the video, [[thread_index_in_threadgroup]] is called "local_id" and it is used to access the image block. I assume this is the default configuration. So when one does the following: Creates MTLRenderPassDescriptor with tileWidth set to W and tileHeight set to H Fires up the tile shading kernel using dispatchThreadsPerTile with MTLSize size = { W, H, 1 } I understand that the result is 1-to-1 mapping between the tile "pixels" and kernel threads. Now, what I would like to do is to have more than one thread group there. I want this for performance reasons: I have a certain compute kernel which I know executes very well with small thread group size. In fact, { 32, 1, 1 } seems to be the fastest. My understanding is that even if I set tile size to 16x16, and so I am executing 256 threads there, there will only be one SIMD group active in a thread group. Meaning that this SIMD group has to execute 8 times over the tile. Is it possible somehow? Or perhaps the limitations of the API are pointing at the limitations of hardware itself, and if I want to execute with SIMD group sized thread groups I have to use "traditional" compute encoder? Will be grateful for help. Michał

Hi. I'm trying to show 3D or AR content in multiple pages on an iOS app but I have found that if a RealityView is used earlier in a flow then future uses will never display the camera feed, even if those earlier uses do not use any spatial tracking. For example, in the following simplified view, the second page realityView will not display the camera feed even though the first view does not use it not start a tracking session. struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { NavigationStack { VStack { RealityView { content in content.camera = .virtual // showing model skipped for brevity } NavigationLink("Second Page") { RealityView { content in content.camera = .spatialTracking } } } } } } What is the way around this so that 3D content can be displayed in multiple places in the app without preventing AR content from working? I have also found the same problem when wrapping an ARView for use in SwiftUI.

after launching a nearby exoerience on quick look or inside our app, all the user in the group watch sometimes teh model blinking abd becoming transparet... ... just one user hasnt the issue, either the one who launched shareplay or the user who force align the immersive space in front weird

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.

On MacBook Pro M3 14" I can profile the Metal App performance by running it, then clicking on the M icon and choosing profile after replay. On Mac Studio M2 Ultra I cannot: the profiler starts and crashes. I have tried everything including reinstalling the OS, Xcode, the Metal SDK, you name it. The app uses the Metal 4 API. The content of the replayer errorinfo report is shown at the end. Any ideas what is going on here and/or what else I can do do root cause this and fix it? FWIW, it was worse on 26.1 (Xcode just reported Metal 4 profiling not available). In 26.2 Xcode attempts to profile and invariably crashes. === Error summary: === 1x DYErrorDomain (512) - guest app crashed (512) 1x com.apple.gputools.MTLReplayer (100) - Abort trap: 6 === First Error === Domain: DYErrorDomain Error code: 512 Description: guest app crashed (512) GTErrorKeyPID: 26913 GTErrorKeyProcessName: GPUToolsReplayService GTErrorKeyCrashDate: 2026-01-09 19:22:52 +0000 === Underlying Error #1 === Domain: com.apple.gputools.MTLReplayer Error code: 100 Description: Abort trap: 6 Call stack: 0 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249c25850 MakeNSError + 284 1 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249c26428 HandleCrashSignal + 252 2 libsystem_platform.dylib 0x00000001856c7744 _sigtramp + 56 3 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856bd888 pthread_kill + 296 4 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001855c2850 abort + 124 5 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001855c1a84 err + 0 6 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea60a8 -[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue _commit:count:commitFeedback:].cold.1 + 0 7 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea0df8 __77-[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue commitFillArgs:count:args:argsSize:commitFeedback:]_block_invoke + 0 8 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea1004 -[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue _commit:count:commitFeedback:] + 148 9 AGXMetalG14X 0x00000001158a2c98 -[AGXG14XFamilyCommandQueue_mtlnext noMergeCommit:count:options:commitFeedback:error:] + 116 10 AGXMetalG14X 0x0000000115a45c14 +[AGXG14XFamilyRenderContext_mtlnext mergeRenderEncoders:count:options:commitFeedback:queue:error:] + 4740 11 AGXMetalG14X 0x00000001158a2b34 -[AGXG14XFamilyCommandQueue_mtlnext commit:count:options:] + 96 12 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249bf0644 GTMTLReplayController_defaultDispatchFunction_noPinning + 2744 13 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249befb10 GTMTLReplayController_defaultDispatchFunction + 1368 14 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249b7a61c _ZL16DispatchFunctionP21GTMTLReplayControllerPK11GTTraceFuncRb + 476 15 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249b8603c ___ZN35GTUSCSamplingStreamingManagerHelper19StreamFrameTimeDataEv_block_invoke + 456 16 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c878 __NSBLOCKOPERATION_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ + 24 17 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c740 -[NSBlockOperation main] + 96 18 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c6d8 __NSOPERATION_IS_INVOKING_MAIN__ + 16 19 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c308 -[NSOperation start] + 640 20 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c080 __NSOPERATIONQUEUE_IS_STARTING_AN_OPERATION__ + 16 21 Foundation 0x0000000186f6bf70 __NSOQSchedule_f + 164 22 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001855104d0 _dispatch_block_async_invoke2 + 148 23 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018551aad4 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 24 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001855056e4 _dispatch_continuation_pop + 596 25 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185504d58 _dispatch_async_redirect_invoke + 580 26 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185512fc8 _dispatch_root_queue_drain + 364 27 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185513784 _dispatch_worker_thread2 + 180 28 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856b9e10 _pthread_wqthread + 232 29 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856b8b9c start_wqthread + 8 Replayer breadcrumbs: [ ] GTErrorKeyProcessSignal: SIGABRT === Setup === Capture device: star.localdomain (Mac14,14) - macOS 26.2 (25C56) - 0BA10D1D-D340-5F2E-934B-536675AF9BA1 Metal version: 370.64.2 Supported graphics APIs: Metal device: Apple M2 Ultra Supported GPU families: Apple1 Apple2 Apple3 Apple4 Apple5 Apple6 Apple7 Apple8 Mac1 Mac2 Common1 Common2 Common3 Metal3 Metal4 Replay device: star (Mac14,14) - macOS 26.2 (25C56) - 0BA10D1D-D340-5F2E-934B-536675AF9BA1 Metal version: 370.64.2 Supported graphics APIs: Metal device: Apple M2 Ultra Supported GPU families: Apple1 Apple2 Apple3 Apple4 Apple5 Apple6 Apple7 Apple8 Mac1 Mac2 Common1 Common2 Common3 Metal3 Metal4 Host: Mac14,14 - macOS 26.2 (25C56) Tool: Xcode (17C52) Known SDKs:

So, I'm done with GPTK and decided to delete it. The only thing I installed was brew -v install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit and the external libraries from the ditto command. Now, I tried to remove it, but even after brew remove game-porting-toolkit brew autoremove all of the dependencies installed with brew are still there. The most obvious was game-porting-toolkit-compiler, but even after removing this there are so many libraries that are now orphaned and it's just impossible to manually identify those. Is there a way or is the easiest way to simply uninstall Homebrew completely and reinstall it again?

Hey I'm using the CIDepthBlurEffect Core Image Filter in my app. It seems to work ok but I get these errors in the console when calling the class. CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: sparserendering_xhlrb_scan CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: sparserendering_xhlrb_diffuse CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: sparserendering_xhlrb_copy_back CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: plain_or_sRGB_copy Am I missing some sort of import to gain these Metal functions? I am using my own custom shaders but I assume you'd be able to use them along side the built in ones.

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!!!

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.

hi When analyzing our game using Instruments, I've always been confused about the two items "Drawable Present" and "Drawable Presented" in the GPU column. The timing of Drawable Present seems to be when the CPU layer calls commandbuffer:present, rather than when the actual encoding is completed on the GPU. Also, what does drawable presented specifically mean? In our case, when a CPU stall occurs, it appears that the vsync interval changes in the next frame, and a surface that has already been calculated is not displayed. Why is this happening?

I do not understand how offline leaderboard submission is supposed to work in Game Kit: While the documentation briefly states that offline submission is supported, how is that even possible when you first have to fetch a leaderboard object in order to then call its submitScore function? How can I get the leaderboard object in the first place when offline? Can anyone enlighten me how this works? Or maybe point me to some relevant documentation?

After updating iPad/iPhone devices from iOS 18 to iOS 26, PhotogrammetrySession intermittently crashes during photogrammetry processing. The same workflow was stable on iOS 18 with no code changes to the app. Environment: OS versions: Works on OS 18, crashes on OS 26 Device: iPad/iPhone (reproducible across devices) Source images: ~170-200 JPG files at 2160 x 3840 resolution Reproduction: The crash occurs consistently on the second or third sequential run of the photogrammetry session with the same image set. First run typically succeeds. Crash details: Xcode shows an uncaught exception during image processing: terminating due to uncaught exception of type std::bad_alloc: std::bad_alloc VTPixelTransferSession 420f sid 269 (2160.00 x 3840.00) [0.00 0.00 2160 3840] rowbytes( 2160, 2160 ) Color( (null), 0x0, (null), (null), ITU_R_601_4 ) => 24 sid 19 (2160.00 x 3840.00) [0.00 0.00 2160 3840] rowbytes( 6528 ) Color( 0x0, (null), (null), (null) ) This appears to be a memory allocation failure in VTPixelTransferSession during color space conversion. Has anyone else experienced similar crashes with CorePhotogrammetry on iOS 26, or found workarounds?

I have implemented the Game Center for authentication and saving player's game data. Both authentication and saving player's data works correctly all the time, but there is a problem with fetching and loading the data. The game works like this: At the startup, I start the authentication After the player successfully logs in, I start loading the player's data by calling fetchSavedGames method If a game data exists for the player, I receive a list of SavedGame object containing the player's data The problem is that after I uninstall the game and install it again, sometimes the SavedGame list is empty(step 3). But if I don't uninstall the game and reopen the game, this process works fine. Here's the complete code of Game Center implementation: class GameCenterHandler { public func signIn() { GKLocalPlayer.local.authenticateHandler = { viewController, error in if let viewController = viewController { viewController.present(viewController, animated: false) return } if error != nil { // Player could not be authenticated. // Disable Game Center in the game. return } // Auth successfull self.load(filename: "TestFileName") } } public func save(filename: String, data: String) { if GKLocalPlayer.local.isAuthenticated { GKLocalPlayer.local.saveGameData(Data(data.utf8), withName: filename) { savedGame, error in if savedGame != nil { // Data saved successfully } if error != nil { // Error in saving game data! } } } else { // Error in saving game data! User is not authenticated" } } public func load(filename: String) { if GKLocalPlayer.local.isAuthenticated { GKLocalPlayer.local.fetchSavedGames { games, error in if let game = games?.first(where: {$0.name == filename}){ game.loadData { data, error in if data != nil { // Data loaded successfully } if error != nil { // Error in loading game data! } } } else { // Error in loading game data! Filename not found } } } else { // Error in loading game data! User is not authenticated } } } I have also added Game Center and iCloud capabilities in xcode. Also in the iCloud section, I selected the iCloud Documents and added a container. I found a simillar question here but it doesn't make things clearer.

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 entity hierarchy, viewed in Reality Composer Pro: My problem is that when I export with the Armature Modifier applied to the objects, so that animations get exported, the ModelComponent gets flattened to the armature and swapping entities is no longer as simple as removing the entity with the corresponding name. 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.

I have this drawing app that I have been working on for the past few years when I have free time. I recently rebuilt the app in Metal to build out other brushes and improve performance, need to render 10000s of lines in realtime. I’m running into this issue trying to create a uniform opacity per path. I have a solution but do not love it - as this is a realtime app and the solution could have some bottlenecks. If I just generate a triangle strip from touch points and do my best to smooth, resample, and handle miters I will always get some overlaps. See: To create a uniform opacity I render to an offscreen texture with blending disabled. I then pre-multiply the color and draw that texture to a composite texture with blending on (I do this per path). This works but gets tricky when you introduce a textured brush, the edges of the texture in the frag shader cut out the line. Pasted Graphic 1.png Solution: I discard below a threshold fragment float4 fragment_line(VertexOut in [[stage_in]], texture2d<float> texture [[ texture(0) ]]) { constexpr sampler s(coord::normalized, address::mirrored_repeat, filter::linear); float2 texCoord = in.texCoord; float4 texColor = texture.sample(s, texCoord); if (texColor.a < 0.01) discard_fragment(); // may be slow (from what I read) return in.color * texColor; } Better but still not perfect. Question: I'm looking for better ways to create a uniform opacity per path. I tried .max blending but that will cause no blending of other paths. Any tips, ideas, much appreciated. If this is too detailed of a question just achieve.

I recently needed to develop an application to obtain the window list, which requires Screen Recording permissions. Apple's official documentation mentions using the two functions CGPreflightScreenCaptureAccess and CGRequestScreenCaptureAccess to request permissions. These functions are stated to be available since version 10.15. However, when I used these two functions on a device running macOS 10.15.7, I encountered the errors shown in the attached screenshot. I used the nm tool to inspect the symbols in the CoreGraphics.framework and found that these two functions were not present. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

I work on a team that provides an SDK for another game to handle various tasks like authentication. They are experiencing a case where devices using iOS 17 are failing to authenticate with GameCenter, receiving the message "The requested operation could not be completed because local player has not been authenticated." We imagine this is because they still have some setup to finish regarding GameCenter itself, and we're working with them to take care of that. However, on iOS 18, their app ends up waiting indefinitely for GameCenter authentication messages that it never receives. That's where we're puzzled. We expect them to have the same outcome regardless of OS version. We initiate GameCenter authentication by setting an authenticateHandler after some initial application setup. The handler has code to account for UI, errors, and successful authentication. On iOS 17, it's clear that it's getting called as expected because they receive an indication that the player isn't authenticated. But on iOS 18, it looks like the same handler code on iOS 18 isn't being called at all. Are there differences in how iOS 18 interacts with the authenticationHandler that we somehow aren't accounting for? Or is there potentially something else that we're doing incorrectly that is manifesting only on iOS 18? Here's a simplified version of our login function code (in Obj-C++). There is no OS-specific code, and the job that owns this function does stay in scope until after authentication is complete. void beginLogin() { // Snip: Check if the user is already logged in. // Snip: Prevent multiple concurrent calls to this function. auto authenticateHandler = ^(UIViewController* gcViewController, NSError* error) { if (gcViewController != nil) { // Snip: Display the UI } else if (error != nil) { // Snip: Handle the error. } else { if ([[GKLocalPlayer localPlayer] isAuthenticated]) { // Snip: Handle successful authentication. } else { // Snip: Handle other case. } } }; [[GKLocalPlayer localPlayer] setAuthenticateHandler: authenticateHandler]; }

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?

I am attempting to load a jpeg image into a vImage_Buffer. I am just trying to get the data in an ARGB format.
