@iBrews If you’re doing it through adb I feel like they changed the command for that recently, I was seeing similar issues with an internal tool

Anyone know why a Meta headset would go to sleep on its own in a couple minutes even if you’ve specifically told it to not sleep or even turn off the screen for 4 hours? I’m trying to run a big co-located mixed reality experience over here !

@sebify @ggasainiev It’s been great for my team, we’re a mixed engine studio but it’s definitely worth considering

@ggasainiev My gut feeling is that a good chunk of studios will find out that working with unreal is not that convenient after all.

sometime I feel like the reason why unity is failing so miserably is because I decided to invest 12 years of my career on it. Maybe the best move is to move to Unreal then :D

@tjheuvel @GustavSterbrant @sebify Another benefit is you can batch it better and also vary quality/frame rate with distance (e.g do every other frame for distant ones)

@GustavSterbrant @sebify The compute shader used for skinning is even in their shader downloads, its quite possible to do something custom there :)

I can't believe that once I have isolated a scene with game elements but without running the game at all, I found out that on some devices the real killer is the GPU skinning! Massive difference sigh. We don't have too many vertices though, so maybe data format issue?

Super proud of this game, great to be able to share it at last

@Sllayt3r Great job!

So, for the first 5 months of 2024 I’ve been on a journey! I’m almost 4 stone down (56lbs) and I’m going for more. One of the best decisions I chose to make, the change in me is immense. Health IS wealth! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

@sebify @aras_p There’s some relevant discussion here solidpixel.github.io/2022/07/21/ver…

@mvinetwork @aras_p I have no idea what binning is 🤪

can we set the vertex stream format in unity? For example, if currently it's everything interleaved, does it mean that the shadow pass is uploading all the extra information that is not necessary to render shadows?

@sebify @aras_p Speeding up binning, I believe we did some benchmarks that showed it was

@mvinetwork @aras_p What was your use case and was it worth it?

@sebify @aras_p You have to script it yourself, we did it as an asset processor script at import time. At the same time you can pack things how you like in terms of format, so it is useful

@aras_p so there is no option for imported meshes? The question was more about imported meshes. I suppose I can create a mesh programmatically from an imported mesh. I wonder if anyone did this test, on mobile it could make a difference.

@Terranauts93 @SoulSpireGame @Magnemar2000 @SoulAssemblyLTD We’re submitting a big update (1.2.0) to it today that’s worth checking out

@Heaney555 Good write up, but this part “There are only 5 truly spatial games on Vision Pro at time of writing” misses @SoulSpireGame :) which supports both distance play but also getting up and interacting with the ghosties

Here it is - my 12,000 word in-depth review of Apple Vision Pro, after using it for dozens of hours over the past 2 weeks in a real home.

@iBrews I’m fascinated to see where we get to with machine learning picking up real world material properties and relighting them correctly

I’m excited for the potential of volumes that not only work well in a chocolate & vanilla kind of way, but directly serve as multipliers to the others. Imagine a “volume” that contains a desk lamp that illuminates 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠. Tho it’s up to Apple to even allow that.

Volumes. Volumes are not possible on Quest 3. Discrete, modular experiences that can live side by side with Windows especially in a productivity environment. What possibilities come to mind?

@EricYearwood @DropdeadVR This is towards the end of the state of the union

@mvinetwork @DropdeadVR Where did you see this video? I was looking for this kind of game release talk and couldn’t find it.

Awesome to see @DropdeadVR Home Invasion mode mentioned at Meta Connect! Lots of news to come in the next few weeks about what we've been busy on.
