When I enter webp image to the assets catalog I get warrning: /Users/..../Assets.xcassets The image set "Card-Back" references a file "Card-Back.webp", but that file does not have a valid extension. It works, I see all my images perfect. How can I fix the 200+ warrnings?

The sample code just draw a triangle and sample texture. both sample code can draw a correct triangle and sample texture as expected. there are no error message from terminal. Sample code using constexpr Sampler can capture and replay well. Sample code using a argumentTable to bind a MTLSamplerState was crashed when using Metal capture and replay on Xcode. Here are sample codes. Sample Code Test Environment: M1 Pro MacOS 26.3 (25D125) Xcode Version 26.2 (17C52) Feedback ID: FB22031701

I have a UIView that displays lines, and I zoom in (scale by 2 on the scroll view zoomScale variable containing the UIView). As I zoom in, on the Mac version (Designed for IPad) I loose the graphic after a certain number of zooms (the scrollView maximumZoomScale is set at 10). To ensure that lines are correctly represented, I modify the contentScaleFactor variable on the UIView; otherwise, the line's display is pixelated. On the IPad (simulator and real) I do not loose the graphic when zooming. So the Mac port of the UIView drawing is not working as the IPad version. Everything else of the application works fine except this important details. I already submitted a feedback request (#FB16829106) with the images showing the problem. I need a solution to this problem. Thanks.

I am attempting to load a jpeg image into a vImage_Buffer. I am just trying to get the data in an ARGB format. This code works fine in the Xcode 15 build , but fails with kvImageInvalidParameter error from vImageBuffer_InitWithCGImage in the Xcode 26 build. This code is written in ObjectiveC++. Here is a code fragment: int CDib_ARGB::Load(LPCSTR pFilename) { int rc = 0; if (NULL == m_pRaw_vImage_Buffer) { NSString *pNS_filename = [[NSString alloc]initWithUTF8String:pFilename]; NSImage *pNSImage = [[NSImage alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:pNS_filename]; if (nil == pNSImage) rc = -1; else { int width = pNSImage.size.width; int height = pNSImage.size.height; if (pNSImage.representations) { NSImageRep *imageRep; int jj; width = 0; height = 0; for (jj = 0; jj < pNSImage.representations.count; jj++) { imageRep = pNSImage.representations[jj]; if (imageRep.pixelsWide > width) width = imageRep.pixelsWide; if (imageRep.pixelsHigh > height) height = imageRep.pixelsHigh; } } NSSize imageSize = NSMakeSize(width, height); NSRect imageRect = NSMakeRect(0, 0, width, height); pNSImage.size = imageSize; CGImageRef cgImage = [pNSImage CGImageForProposedRect:&imageRect context:NULL hints:nil]; if (nil == cgImage) rc = -1; else { //Alloc and load vImage_Buffer. vImage_Buffer *pvImage_Buffer = new vImage_Buffer; if (NULL == pvImage_Buffer) rc = -1; else { vImage_CGImageFormat format; format.bitsPerComponent = 8; format.bitsPerPixel = 32; format.colorSpace = nil; format.bitmapInfo = kCGImageAlphaFirst | kCGBitmapByteOrderDefault;//ARGB8888 format.version = 0; format.decode = nil; format.renderingIntent = kCGRenderingIntentDefault; memset(pvImage_Buffer, 0, sizeof(vImage_Buffer)); long status = vImageBuffer_InitWithCGImage(pvImage_Buffer, &format, nil, cgImage, kvImagePrintDiagnosticsToConsole); if (kvImageNoError != status) { //This is where Xcode 26 sends me. delete pvImage_Buffer; rc = -1; } =========================

Like many folks here, I've recently attempted to build Apple's Game Porting Toolkit on my machine and ran into compiler errors, but instead of going the usual route of downloading the prebuilt package (kindly provided by GCenX), I decided to see if I could force it to build (since it was obviously buildable at some point). Down below is the list of things I had to do to make it work. Disclaimer: There are several dirty hacks I had to attempt to force the system to do what I needed. Use at your own risk. Don't forget to run all brew commands from a Rosetta prompt: arch -x86_64 zsh Install openssl This one is easy. Just run brew tap rbenv/tap brew install rbenv/tap/openssl@1.1 Install Command Line Tools 15.1 This specific version is required since newer versions come with the linker that is not compatible with the custom compiler (game-porting-toolkit-compiler) that GPTK is using. However, by default 15.1 tools won't install on Sequoia since the installer complains that macOS version is too new. Obviously, Apple has their reasons to not allow this, but all we need is a compiler which should be mostly indifferent to the OS version. To trick the installer, we need to change OS requirement of the installer package. You can do it in four easy steps: Copy Command Line Tools.pkg from the mounted Command_Line_Tools_for_Xcode_15.1.dmg to some other directory. Expand the installer package: pkgutil --expand "Command Line Tools.pkg" CLT You might be prompted to install Command Line Tools when you call pkgutil, just install any version. Go to the newly created CLT folder and edit the Distribution file (it may appear as executable but it's just an xml). You would want to change allowed-os-versions to something greater than 15. Removing this section altogether might also work. When done, re-wrap the package: pkgutil --flatten CLT "Command Line Tools 2.pkg" Congratulations, now you should be able to install 15.1 tools on your OS! If you had to install newer Command Line Tools for pkgutil, delete them before installing 15.1: sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools Next step is to make Homebrew accept the outdated 15.1 tools, as by default it'll complain that they're outdated or corrupted. To shut it up, open /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Homebrew/extend/os/Mac/diagnostic.rb and remove references to check_if_supported_sdk_available from a couple of fatal build check collections. Note - by default, Homebrew will auto-update on any invocation, which will overwrite any changes you've made to its internals. To disable this behavior, before running any brew commands in the terminal, run export HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 After these manipulations, Homebrew might still complain about outdated Command Line Tools, but it won't be a fatal error anymore. Finally, we need to downgrade MinGW to 11.0.1, since the latest version spits out compiler errors when compiling Wine. Unfortunately, Homebrew does a bad job tracking versions of MinGW, so there is no automatic way to do it. Instead, you have to manually download and install old MinGW 11.0.1 formula from the Homebrew git repository. I used the commit from Sep 16, 2023: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/b95f4f9491394af667943bd92b081046ba3406f2/Formula/m/mingw-w64.rb Download the file above, save it in your current working directory, and then run brew install ./mingw-w64.rb If you had a newer version of MinGW already installed from the previous build attempts, you can unlink it before installing the one above: brew unlink mingw-w64 With Command Line Tools 15.1 and MinGW 11.0.1 you should now be able to build GPTK without errors: brew -v install apple/apple/game-porting-toolkit In the end, steps above worked for me, although more things could break in the future. I'm leaving the instructions here just to show that it's still possible to build GPTK manually instead of relying on third parties, but with all the hoops I had to jump through I can't really recommend it.

Hello Apple team, I'm working on an iOS AR app using SwiftUI and RealityKit, and I was wondering if the Cinematic API can be used with a RealityKit scene. I’d like to achieve a shallow depth of field while keeping the 3D asset in focus, and vice versa. Thanks!

When building a Unity iOS game, the app name displays incorrectly as "BigBall" on the iPhone home screen, despite setting the project name and bundle identifier to "Big Ball" in Unity and Apple Developer account. The correct name, "Big Ball," appears in TestFlight. I tried solutions from ChatGPT and DeepSeek, but none were satisfactory. Please help me.

Hello, In our game we enforce an age gate before showing Game Center sign‑in. Only after the user passes the age gate do we call GKLocalPlayer.localPlayer.authenticateHandler. The reason I’m asking is that we want to reliably detect if the game was launched from a Game Center activity in the Games app (iOS 26+). If the user prefers to enter via activities, we don’t want to miss that event during cold start. Our current proposal is: Register a GKLocalPlayerListener early in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: so the app is ready to catch events. Queue any incoming events in our dispatcher. Only process those events after the user passes the age gate and authentication succeeds. My questions are: Does player:wantsToPlayGameActivity:completionHandler: ever fire before authentication, or only after the local player is authenticated? If it only fires after authentication, is our “register early but gate processing” approach the correct way to ensure we don’t miss activity launches? Is there any recommended pattern to distinguish “activity launch” vs. “normal launch” in this age‑gate scenario? We want to respect Apple’s age gate requirements, but also ensure activity launches are not lost if the user prefers that entry point. Sorry if this is a stupid question — I just want to be sure we’re following the right pattern. Thanks for any clarification or best‑practice guidance!

My IOS app generates pdf files. Every time my users open the generated pdf files, the autofill popup jumps out, but my pdf file is NOT for interacting. I'm here to ask if there's a way to mark my pdf files as "not a form", like in metadata or anywhere else?

Hi all, I've developed some code that enables an arcball camera interaction with my scene. I've done this using components and systems. The implementation feels a bit messy as I've got gesture code on my realityView, and then a bunch of other code that uses those gesture inputs in my component and system. Is there a demo app, or some example code that shows a nice way to encapsulate these things in to one item for custom cameras, something like Apple's .realityViewCameraControls(.orbit) If not can anyone recommend an approach to take?

Hello! I'm currently porting a videogame console emulator to iOS and I'm trying to make the renderer (tested on MacOS) work on iOS as well. The emulator core is written in C++ and uses metal-cpp for rendering, whereas the iOS frontend is written in Swift with SwiftUI. I have an Objective-C++ bridging header for bridging the Swift and C++ sides. On the Swift side, I create an MTKView. Inside the MTKView delegate, I run the emulator for 1 video frame and pass it the view's backing layer for it to render the final output image with. The emulator runs and returns, but when it returns I get a crash in Swift land (callstack attached below), inside objc_release, which indicates I'm doing something wrong with memory management. My bridging interface (ios_driver.h): #pragma once #include <Foundation/Foundation.h> #include <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h> void iosCreateEmulator(); void iosRunFrame(CAMetalLayer* layer); Bridge implementation (ios_driver.mm): #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> extern "C" { #include "ios_driver.h" } <...> #define IOS_EXPORT extern "C" __attribute__((visibility("default"))) std::unique_ptr<Emulator> emulator = nullptr; IOS_EXPORT void iosCreateEmulator() { ... } // Runs 1 video frame of the emulator and IOS_EXPORT void iosRunFrame(CAMetalLayer* layer) { void* layerBridged = (__bridge void*)layer; // Pass the CAMetalLayer to the emulator emulator->getRenderer()->setMTKLayer(layerBridged); // Runs the emulator for 1 frame and renders the output image using our layer emulator->runFrame(); } My MTKView delegate: class Renderer: NSObject, MTKViewDelegate { var parent: ContentView var device: MTLDevice! init(_ parent: ContentView) { self.parent = parent if let device = MTLCreateSystemDefaultDevice() { self.device = device } super.init() } func mtkView(_ view: MTKView, drawableSizeWillChange size: CGSize) {} func draw(in view: MTKView) { var metalLayer = view.layer as! CAMetalLayer // Run the emulator for 1 frame & display the output image iosRunFrame(metalLayer) } } Finally, the emulator's render function that interacts with the layer: void RendererMTL::setMTKLayer(void* layer) { metalLayer = (CA::MetalLayer*)layer; } void RendererMTL::display() { CA::MetalDrawable* drawable = metalLayer->nextDrawable(); if (!drawable) { return; } MTL::Texture* texture = drawable->texture(); <rest of rendering follows here using the drawable & its texture> } This is the Swift callstack at the time of the crash: To my understanding, I shouldn't be violating ARC rules as my bridging header uses CAMetalLayer* instead of void* and Swift will automatically account for ARC when passing CoreFoundation objects to Objective-C. However I don't have any other idea as to what might be causing this. I've been trying to debug this code for a couple of days without much success. If you need more info, the emulator code is also on Github Metal renderer: https://github.com/wheremyfoodat/Panda3DS/blob/ios/src/core/renderer_mtl/renderer_mtl.cpp#L58-L68 Bridge implementation: https://github.com/wheremyfoodat/Panda3DS/blob/ios/src/ios_driver.mm Bridging header: https://github.com/wheremyfoodat/Panda3DS/blob/ios/include/ios_driver.h Any help is more than appreciated. Thank you for your time in advance.

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.

Hi everyone, I'm new to visionOS development. I'm trying to create a physics-based scene (with gravity) where users can pick up and move objects on a workbench. I am struggling with physics interactions during the drag gesture: Kinematic Mode: If I switch to .kinematic during the drag, the object moves smoothly but clips through other objects (no collisions). Dynamic Mode: I tried keeping it .dynamic and applying linear velocity toward the hand position, but the movement feels laggy and unresponsive. Hybrid Approach: I tried switching to .kinematic during DragGesture.onChange and back to .dynamic on collision, but this causes the entity to jitter/shake violently when touching other objects. Has anyone found a clean way to drag objects while maintaining solid collisions. Thanks for your help!

My procedural animation using IKRig occasionally jitters and throws this warning. It completely breaks immersion. getMoCapTask: Rig must be of type kCoreIKSolverTypePoseRetarget Any idea where to start looking or what could be causing this?

I've coded a text-adventure game in SwiftUI. (My game has no graphics or sound effects.) My app already supports keyboard navigation; I would like to add support for game controllers on iPhone. I can't figure out how to do it. I especially can't see any way to allow controller users to enter text in a TextField. I've read https://developer.apple.com/documentation/gamecontroller/supporting-game-controllers and it's all about button events. There's no reference to SwiftUI at all in that documentation, or any input-method editing at all. The only mention of "keyboard" is about treating the keyboard itself as if it were a game controller providing button events. How do I implement this?

As GKGameCenterViewController has been deprecated, it seems that GKAccessPoint is now the correct way to present the GameCentre leaderboard. But the placement options for the GKAccessPoint are very limited and lead to misaligned UI that looks clunky, as the GKAccessPoint does not align with the system navigation toolbar. Am I missing something here or am I just stuck with a lopsided UI now? I much preferred how this previously worked, where I could present the GKGameCenterViewController in a sheet from my own button

Updated my app to include turn-based matches. Beta testing through FlightTest and all was well between iOS 18.x and 26.2 devices. One beta tester upgraded to 26.2 during beta testing and now when the MatchMaker VC is opened, it does not show existing matches. Worse, he can create new matches and play his turn, but the new match won't even show up in MMVC, even after opponent takes turn. My app has been reviewed and is ready for release, but I'd like to know how to solve this before I release. He has tried re-installing the app, including an updated FlightTest version that is the same as the about-to-be-released reviewed version.

In my turn-based game, I receive GKListener event receivedTurnEventForMatch and decode the match.matchData. On occasion, the matchData is clearly stale and is from the previous turn. If I call the MatchMaker ViewController up and select that same match, the data is not stale, so it's not a matter of not calling endTurn. I have tried both loadMatchWithID and loadMatchesWithCompletionHandler after receiving the receivedTurnEventForMatch, but the data is still stale. Advice?

Hello, I'm working on a game that features online multiplayer. The game is developed using Unity and Apple Unity plugins. The "isUnderAge" property restricts the online multiplayer feature. Everything works as expected on all platforms (Mac, iPhone, iPad, AppleTV, and visionPro) except on Macs equipped with an Intel chip. Using the same iCloud and GameCenter, with no restrictions enabled, "isUnderAge" returns false, as expected, but on Mac equipped with an Intel chip, it returns true. Is there any restriction or compatibility issue with those chips? Is there a workaround? Thanks
