ECS support for Apple Vision Pro

[austere girder]

During the wwdc unity keynote they showcase included monobehaviour, but nothing was mentioned about ECS support.

As it is still not fully clear if we will get access to eye tracking data, will ecs have support for the input colliders as well that we can build experiences for the headset with ECS?

What about entites graphics, will it support the special graphics pipeline required for the headset?

[copper ridge]

nobody tried it yet, to my knowledge. until yesterday probably nobody on the dots team even knew it existed; these things are restricted to specific teams under such nda's

[austere girder]

Now that the device has been out, are there any plans to support the device with ECS and Dots?

[old valve]

Just try it out. I've written a full AR iOS game with dots and I guess Vision Pro isn't that different

[austere girder]

Its about the rendering pipeline, AVP requires the polyspatial rendering in non-full immersive mode.

But we will test as soon as the device is delivered

[austere girder]

Just tested, currently entities graphics doesn’t work on the AVP. Would be good to know if support is at least planned?

[sacred hill]

I'd be curious to know if Resident Drawer worked

[austere girder]

I can't test, there is no Vision Pro support on the current tech stream.

Did you learn anything more about having to set MR in order for it to work? I'd like to get VR mode working

[austere girder]

So its not currently defined on their roadmap.

We can vote for it but it will not happen immediately.

In fully immersive mode, you can use entities graphics, as unity has full control over the rendering.

But currently PlayToDevice will not work in fully immersive mode.

I see. I couldn't get anything to display unless i set to MR.

[austere girder]

In the simulator as well? or just on device?

[waxen orchid]

both if I recall.. let me try again quick

[austere girder]

For me in the simulator it worked, still need to test on device.

[waxen orchid]

okay i apologize, i remember better now.. its not black. it shows but its stuck to the camera. Like if i go back home i can tell i was looking aroud.. but everything in the scene stays fixed so it looks unresponsive

[austere girder]

So it renders at initial position but stays there?

[waxen orchid]

its like the camera or view of the 'device', in the simulator and on the device, is actually moving around. if i close the experience after trying it, the camera isnt in the same place.. like i can tell i had moved around trying to see if i could navigate the scene.. but everything in the scene must be completely fixed to the camera..because there is no visual indication you are moving until you exit the application and see you are indeed looking behind you and moved.. if that makes sense

[austere girder]

Will give it another try shortly and report back, I used it just with stationary camera.
