I exported some usd assets from IsaacSim but they are not showing up correctly on my Apple Vision Pro. Even though the mesh looks to be the correct color in Finder and I can see the Diffuse Color looks correct, the object is still just gray. It should be green!

I have an arguably massive project and am not sure if the issue is with the assets or my approach in the code. the error says : Tool terminated due to error "SIGNAL 6:Abort trap:6" Basically I have around 15-20 assets (usda files built out of usdz files). In the code i am loading a scene with all the usda files and then have the functions to enable and disable a particular asset when needed. This was working as intended when i am using dummy assets(with less polygons, lesser textures) But when i placed the actual assets the error appears and persists. Do I have a bad approach of loading all the scenes at once? Previously i have used an approach which loads the scenes when needed and that involved some lag before rendering the assets. But my current approach(when using dummies) works like a dime rendering and hiding the assets in realtime with no lag. Kindly suggest any workarounds.

I am creating an Augmented Reality iOS (Not VisionOS) app using scenes created in Reality Composer Pro. I'd like my code to send a notification to a RCP scene that plays a timeline. The RCP interface has the option to set up a behaviour for this purpose: This Forum thread https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/756978 suggests the code I need for sending a notification is: name: NSNotification.Name("RealityKit.NotificationTrigger"), object: nil, userInfo: [ "RealityKit.NotificationTrigger.Scene": scene, "RealityKit.NotificationTrigger.Identifier": "HideCharacter" ] ) but the 'scene' var needs to point to the relevant RCP scene, which is loaded within a UIViewRepresentable ARView (because even in iOS26 it seems RealityKit/RealityViews aren't quite ready for AR use) and I can't work out how to correctly access it. Examples in the link above are for working with RealityKit and VisionOS only. Code for loading the scene is as follows. How can I get the notification code above to be situated in a separate SwiftUI View and send the notification to the RCP scene? typealias UIViewType = ARView func makeUIView(context: Context) -> ARView { // Create an ARView let arView = ARView(frame: .zero) // Configure it let arConfiguration = ARWorldTrackingConfiguration() arConfiguration.planeDetection = [.horizontal] arView.session.run(arConfiguration) // Load in Reality Composer Pro scene let scene = try! Entity.load(named:"myScene)", in: realityKitContentBundle) // Create a horizontal plane anchor let anchor = AnchorEntity(.plane(.horizontal, classification: .any, minimumBounds: SIMD2<Float>(0.2, 0.2))) // Append the scene to the anchor anchor.children.append(scene) // Append the anchor to the ARView arView.scene.anchors.append(anchor) return arView } func updateUIView(_ uiView: ARView, context: Context) { } }

Hi! I have been struggling with this for a little while and most of what I've found has not helped much. I hope to find more success here. Essentially, I have a model I've made in Blender. I rigged it using Auto Rig Pro, and I've also used ARP to add a Mixamo animation to it. That all works fine in Blender. However, when I try to import this model into RCP, I don't get the animation. The "default subtree animation" is completely empty. I attribute this to my lack of experience in this field but here's what I've attempted thus far: Pushing the Mixamo keyframes into an NLA strip. I'm pretty sure this is the correct line of action, but I'm definitely not doing something right. Baking the animation (?) I've made sure that I have animation checked when I export the model! Any ideas or reference projects would be lovely. I haven't really found much that has pushed me in the right direction. This project is, unfortunately, kind of time sensitive, so I would appreciate help ASAP. Thank you and let me know if I can add anymore context!

randomly, the app does not work after small changes in Reality Composer. Small changes like scaling a object a tiny bit. to fix the error, i have to change another element in reality composer and hope for the best. if this does not help, i change (transform) something else, or deactive/activate something to get the project working again. I can't see a pattern why the Reality Composer Project sometimes gets in a state where it does not compile anymore.

the timeline editor feels often unfinished. Setting the time cursor to a different time is often not reflected in the preview. You either have to click a clip or wait. sometimes the cursor even disappears, eg. when switching tabs to shadergraph Not being able to select and move multiple clips is missing. There is also no snapping to clips or time cursor as found in other tools. And then there is the timeline compile bug https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/810868 The timeline as it is, is a good start but it definitely needs some more love to be on par with other commercial tools like Unity or After Effects.

Is there a way to stop a Reality Composer Timeline ? And restart it later on. For me it looks like you can only start a timeline via notification. and related to it. i have the issue that if the notification to start a certain timeline happens twice or more, it looks as if the timeline actually plays multiple times and animations start to glitch and jump. what is best practise here to avoid this.

Hello, I am experiencing an issue where lighting is disabled within a Portal Component specifically when using Progressive or Full Immersion styles in visionOS 26.2. [Steps to Reproduce] Create a scene in Reality Composer Pro with custom lighting (Directional Light, IBL, etc.) and load it as an Entity. Add a PortalComponent to this Entity. Observe the Entity in an ImmersiveSpace under different Immersion Styles. [Observed Behavior] Mixed Immersion: Lighting works as expected.Progressive / Full Immersion: Lighting is disabled, causing the content to render incorrectly. [Additional Context] Without PortalComponent: The same Reality Composer Pro scene renders lighting correctly across all Immersion Styles (Mixed, Progressive, and Full).Regression: In applications built with Xcode 16.4 / visionOS 2.5, lighting inside the Portal functioned correctly. This issue appears to have emerged with Xcode 26.2 and visionOS 26.2. [Questions] Is the disabling of lighting inside Portals during Full/Progressive Immersion an intended architectural change or optimization in visionOS 26.2? Are there any workarounds, such as specific PortalComponent configurations or new API flags, to re-enable lighting in these immersion modes? Thank you.

I have a simple visionOS app that creates an Entity, writes it to the device, and then attempts to load it. However, when the entity file get overwritten, it affects the ability for the app to load it correctly. Here is my code for saving the entity. import SwiftUI import RealityKit import UniformTypeIdentifiers struct ContentView: View { var body: some View { VStack { ToggleImmersiveSpaceButton() Button("Save Entity") { Task { // if let entity = await buildEntityHierarchy(from: urdfPath) { let type = UTType.realityFile let filename = "testing.\(type.preferredFilenameExtension ?? "bin")" let documentsURL = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)[0] let fileURL = documentsURL.appendingPathComponent(filename) do { let mesh = MeshResource.generateBox(size: 1, cornerRadius: 0.05) let material = SimpleMaterial(color: .blue, isMetallic: true) let modelComponent = ModelComponent(mesh: mesh, materials: [material]) let entity = Entity() entity.components.set(modelComponent) print("Writing \(fileURL)") try await entity.write(to: fileURL) } catch { print("Failed writing") } } } } .padding() } } Every time I press "Save Entity", I see a warning similar to: Writing file:///var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/1140E7D6-D365-48A4-8BED-17BEA34E3F1E/Documents/testing.reality Failed to set dependencies on asset 1941054755064863441 because NetworkAssetManager does not have an asset entity for that id. When I open the immersive space, I attempt to load the same file: import SwiftUI import RealityKit import UniformTypeIdentifiers struct ImmersiveView: View { @Environment(AppModel.self) private var appModel var body: some View { RealityView { content in guard let type = UTType.realityFile.preferredFilenameExtension else { return } let documentsURL = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)[0] let fileURL = documentsURL.appendingPathComponent("testing.\(type)") guard FileManager.default.fileExists(atPath: fileURL.path) else { print("❌ File does not exist at path: \(fileURL.path)") return } if let entity = try? await Entity(contentsOf: fileURL) { content.add(entity) } } } } I also get errors after I overwrite the entity (by pressing "Save Entity" after I have successfully loaded it once). The warnings that appear when the Immersive space attempts to load the new entity are: Asset 13277375032756336327 Mesh (RealityFileAsset)URL/file:///var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/1140E7D6-D365-48A4-8BED-17BEA34E3F1E/Documents/testing.reality/Mesh_0.compiledmesh failure: Asset provider load failed: type 'RealityFileAsset' -- RERealityArchive: Failed to open load stream for entry 'assets/Mesh_0.compiledmesh'.

The order of operations to make this happen: Launch app Press "Save Entity" to save the entity "Open Immersive Space" to view entity Press "Save Entity" to overwrite the entity "Open Immersive Space" to view entity, failed asset load request Also Launch app, the entity should still be save from last time the app ran "Open Immersive Space" to view entity Press "Save Entity" to overwrite the entity "Open Immersive Space" to view entity, failed asset load request NOTE: It appears I can get it to work slightly better by pressing the "Save Entity" button twice before attempting to view it again in the immersive space.

Hi, we have been working on an application that attaches a hand model to the users hands. Apple provides an animating hand models in visionOS project that is a useful starting point. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionOS/animating-hand-models-in-visionOS We have been trying to create our own hand model to attach but have had some issues with how it is attaching to the hand. For our hand model we want to include the forearm all the way up to the users elbow. I have attached a sample project of what our code currently looks like so you can run it. Just select show immersive space to attach the models. The left hand model is the space glove that we were trying to mirror. The right hand model is our model that we have been using. I have mapped each of the joints to the pertaining joint name on our model. The first issue we are having seems to be based around the placement of the forearm. It attaches itself at the wrist. The second issue seems to be around rotation. Our team is looking for some guidance on what needs to change in order to map this model correctly. Thanks in advance!
