I am trying to install the Game Porting Toolkit 2.1 according to the Readme file provided with the toolkit. When I run the following command: WINEPREFIX=~/my-game-prefix brew --prefix game-porting-toolkit/bin/wine64 winecfg I get an error message: zsh: no such file or directory: /usr/local/opt/game-porting-toolkit/bin/wine64 I don't know how to resolve this. When I type in the command which brew , I get the path /usr/local/bin/brew What am I doing wrong?

I'm encountering a build failure when trying to install the Game Porting Toolkit via Homebrew. The installation fails during the game-porting-toolkit-compiler dependency build phase with a CMake compatibility error. Error Message: CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (cmake_minimum_required): Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake. Update the VERSION argument <min> value. Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier. Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway. -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! Environment: macOS: 15.6.1 (Sequoia) Homebrew: 5.0.1 CMake: 3.20.2 Architecture: x86_64 (via Rosetta) Formula: apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit-compiler v0.1 Source: crossover-sources-22.1.1.tar.gz Steps to Reproduce: Install x86_64 Homebrew for Rosetta compatibility Run: arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit Build fails during dependency installation Root Cause: The LLVM/Clang sources included in crossover-sources-22.1.1.tar.gz contain a CMakeLists.txt file that specifies a minimum CMake version lower than 3.5. Modern CMake versions (3.5+) have removed backward compatibility with these older version requirements. Potential Solutions: Update the Homebrew formula to patch the CMakeLists.txt with cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5) or higher Update to newer CrossOver sources with updated CMake requirements Add the -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 flag to the CMake build command in the formula Is this a known issue? Are there plans to update the formula or the source package to resolve this compatibility problem? Any guidance on a workaround would be appreciated.

I would like a monthly recurring leaderboard, but the most days one can set for the recurring leaderboard is 30, and some months have 31 days (or 28/29). This is dumb. I guess I have to manually reset a classic leaderboard each month to get this result? Additionally once it closes and is about to reset (I also have daily recurring leaderboards), I'd like to grant the top placers on the leaderboard a corresponding achievement, but I don't see any way of doing this. I believe I can do all these things on PlayFab, but it'll take a bit more work, and eventually cost. Any one have advise?

var allLeaderboards = await GKLeaderboard.LoadLeaderboards(); Log(allLeaderboards.Count); // returns 0 What am I missing?? What doesn’t work: await GKGameActivityDefinition.LoadGameActivityDefinitions() → count = 0 await GKLeaderboard.LoadLeaderboards() (no args) → 0 leaderboards await GKLeaderboard.LoadLeaderboards("MY ID") → returns 0 GkGameActivity.SetScoreOnLeaderboard(Leaderboard, score, context); returns an error since my Leaderboard is null. Activities and leaderboards are defined in GameCenterResources.gamekit in Xcode. Achievements that I add locally in the .gamekit file do not appear at runtime either; only ASC live ones show. ** What works:** xcode- debug- Gamekit- Manage Game progress- I can submit new scores with the plus button and see the notification on my device. await GKLocalPlayer.Authenticate() succeeds. await GKAchievement.LoadAchievements() returns the list of achievements configured in App Store Connect- but not any new local achievements created in Xcode in GameCenterResources.gamekit Environment Device/OS: iPhone on iOS 26.0 beta (Game Center sandbox) Xcode: 26.0 beta 6 Unity: 2022.3.21 Apple GameKit Unity plugin: 2025-beta1 (GameKit package) Signing: Game Center capability enabled; using development provisioning profile GameKit resources: GameCenterResources.gamekit in project (Target: Unity-iPhone), appears under Build Phases → Copy Bundle Resources

subj And how in this case are beautiful system dials made with smoke effects and other particles?

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?

I think I really have tried everything and I did all according to official documentation to support game mode on iOS or iPadOS but it doesn't matter what I do it just doesn't get triggered. Funny enough it works during development when I install it via Xcode but as soon as it is live on the store and when I install it from there game mode doesn't get triggered anymore. What I have atm I have added (even though it is deprecated) <key>GCSupportsGameMode</key> <true/> I have set the (but it seems only supported for macOS) <key>LSApplicationCategoryType</key> <string>public.app-category.games</string> I have added <key>LSSupportsGameMode</key> <true/> It just doesn't work. Is there anything else what needs to be done? Should the flag LSSupportsGameMode not be enough normally? The reason why this is so annoying is that my app is a real time streaming app and I want to profit from minimised background activities for smoother gameplay and more consistent frame rates like mentioned in the documentation.

Just found out this key available for visionOS https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements/com.apple.developer.low-latency-streaming It seems to keep video streaming from being interrupted by AWDL, our community needs it badly for self-hosted game streaming (PC to iPhone / iPad). Related apps: Moonlight / VoidLink / SteamLink. Can we expect this on iOS/iPadOS 26, or even iOS/iPadOS 18 ?

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.

Looks like is something to do with the code and that is why my images are distorted. please help me get to the right person to help me get this issue resolved

As part of the WWDC25 Keynote, a technology was announced that can present 2D images as 3D spatial scenes. This announcement is supported by a Press Release. ...developers can use the Spatial Scene API to make their app experience even more immersive. Zillow is taking advantage of the API for their Zillow Immersive app, allowing users to see images of homes and apartments with the rich depth and dimension that spatial scenes offer. The feature also appears in the Photos App on iOS 26 Developer Beta 1. Tapping "Spatial Scene" on any photo opens a view of that photo with a parallax effect. I've searched the WWDC sessions and new documentation and have come up short. Reaching out here for help. Is there any documentation for Spatial Scene API? Or any guidance on how to implement the spatial scene in iOS?

My app is being rejected and all I'm being told is that it is spam. I've tried improving various aspects of the game, but I just receive the same copy and paste rejection message each time. I have no idea if I'm moving in the right direction or what part of my game needs to be changed or improved. Is there a game quality benchmark document or some kind of resource I can use to better understand why my game is being rejected and how to bring it to a level that meets apple's standards.

Hi everyone, I’m developing an iPad app that will be running continuously with the screen always on — similar to a restaurant ordering system. I understand that some of the newer iPad Pro models are equipped with OLED displays. I'm concerned about the potential risk of screen burn-in due to static UI elements being displayed for extended periods. Does burn-in occur on the OLED iPad Pro models under such usage? Would it be advisable to implement a screen saver or periodically animate/change parts of the UI to prevent this? Any insights or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Had anyone experienced convexCast causing a crash and what might be behind it? Here's the call stack:

Hello ! We are working on a real-time 2-player online game targeting multiple Apple devices. The following issue only occurs on tvOS: When selecting matchmaking to connect with another random player, the native Game Center interface opens and begins the matchmaking process. Almost immediately after clicking "start", the following log appears in the console, and the matchmaking screen remains indefinitely without completing: Timeout while starting matching with request: <GKMatchRequestInternal 0x30d62f690> { defaultNumberOfPlayers : 0 isLateJoin : 0 localPlayerID : U:bea182d69b85f0839e3958742fbc4609 matchType : 0 maxPlayers : 2 minPlayers : 2 playerAttributes : 4294967295 playerGroup : 1 preloadedMatch : 0 recipientPlayerIDs : <__NSArrayM 0x3034ed5c0> {} recipients : <__NSArrayM 0x3034ee280> {} restrictToAutomatch : 0 version : 1 archivedSharePlayInviteeTokensFromProgrammaticInvite, inviteMessage, localizableInviteMessage, messagesBasedRecipients, properties, queueName, recipientProperties, rid, sessionToken : (null) } . Error: (null) However, as shown in the code snippet below, the task does not complete when the log appears. But when we manually cancel the matchmaking process, the "User cancel" log is correctly triggered. var gkMatchRequest = GKMatchRequest.Init(); gkMatchRequest.MinPlayers = 2; gkMatchRequest.MaxPlayers = 2; var matchRequestTask = GKMatchmakerViewController.Request(gkMatchRequest); matchRequestTask.ContinueWith(t => { Debug.LogException(t.Exception); }, TaskContinuationOptions.OnlyOnFaulted); matchRequestTask.ContinueWith(t => { Debug.Log("User cancel"); }, TaskContinuationOptions.OnlyOnCanceled); matchRequestTask.ContinueWith(t => { Debug.Log("Success"); }, TaskContinuationOptions.OnlyOnRanToCompletion); We have tested this on multiple Apple TV and network types (Wi-Fi, 5G, Ethernet), but we consistently encounter this bug along with the same log message. Could you please help us understand or resolve this issue? Thank you.

Hi Apple & devs, I'm trying to test various Windows .exe files using the Game Porting Toolkit (GPTK), but I’m hitting a wall: no matter what .exe I try, the command returns instantly with no output — no error, no logs, nothing. Here's what I'm doing: I'm using macOS Sequioa 15.5 on M1 macbook pro. I installed gameportingtoolkt GPTK 2.1 through brew from gcenx: brew install gcenx/wine/game-porting-toolkit When I run any .exe using GPTK's wine64, like this, e.g. with steam user@JMacBook-Pro / % WINEPREFIX=~/wine_prefix /usr/local/bin/gameportingtoolkit 'C:\SteamSetup.exe' --verbose user@JMacBook-Pro / % Immediate exit without any return code, output, nor errors. No output, no crash, no logs. Same result with simple test apps Running with WINEDEBUG=+all (still no output) Even running wine64 does the same thing. I’ve tried: Removing and reinstalling GPTK Creating a fresh WINEPREFIX Checking /tmp and ~/Library/Logs for logs — nothing Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea how to debug it? Is there ANY Apple support for this?? Thanks in advance.

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？

Hi there, I've discovered an issue with gesture handling in RealityKit when setting the camera’s fieldOfViewOrientation to horizontal. For instance, if I render a simple box at the center of the view with a collision shape that exactly matches its dimensions, the actual hit area behaves as if it's smaller than the box. Additionally, when attempting to drag the box away from the center, the hit area appears misaligned—offset slightly towards the center. Since the default fieldOfViewOrientation is vertical and everything works as expected in that mode, it seems that the gesture system might be assuming a vertical FOV. Given that the API allows setting it to horizontal, perhaps gestures should function correctly regardless of the orientation? Thank you!

We're using RealityKit to create a science education AR app for iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS. In the WWDC25 session video "Bring your SceneKit project to RealityKit" https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/288 at 8:15, it's explained that when using RealityKit, RealityView should be used in all cases, whereas in the past, SceneKit required SCNView, SceneView, or ARSCNView, depending on an app's requirements. Because the initial development of our app on iOS predates iOS 18's RealityView, our app currently uses ARView to render RealityKit AR content on iOS and iPadOS. Is it recommended that we migrate to RealityView, or can we safely continue using our existing ARView implementation? We'd prefer to avoid unnecessary development cost. If migrating from ARView to RealityView is recommended, what specific benefits should we expect from this transition? Thank you.

Hello, I found an issue with the Games app on macOS 26 (Tahoe) when viewing achievements: In App Store Connect, each achievement has different values set for the pre-earned description and the post-earned description. When testing with GameKit directly (GKAchievementDescription), both values are returned correctly. However, in the macOS Games app, the post-earned description is shown even before the achievement is earned. This seems to be a display issue specific to the Games app on macOS. Could you confirm if this is a known bug in the Games app, or if there is a reason why pre-earned descriptions are not being shown? Thank you.
