Hi,
I have problems with Noesis (3.2.7) , Unity 6 (6000.0.43f1 LTS) and URP. I think that the issue is related with the camera stacking in MacOS and IOS. The UI that we paint during the gameplay is not visible in MAC and IOS (In build and in editor). The previous screens, during the navigation in the menus, are visible (in editor and in build). For that reason i think that should be related with camera stacking (In the game view is the only point that we're using camera stacking)
PS: In other platforms (windows and android) the UI during the game is visible.[bug][/bug]

There are a few things that are still not working properly with Unity 6.

Could you please create a ticket for this and if possible attaching a simple scene reproducing the problem?

Thank you!

I’m experiencing the same issue with Unity and URP on Mac. I’ve decided to switch to working on Windows for now and compile on Mac afterward. Downgrading to Unity 2022 might also be a viable option until this is resolved.

I’m currently working on this, as we’re planning to release version 3.2.8 very soon.

Some of the issues on macOS (such as #3851) appear to be resolved when using Unity 6.1. Could you please try that version and see if the problem persists?

Additionally, if you have a minimal project that reproduces the Camera Stacking issue, it would be greatly appreciated. It would significantly help me diagnose and resolve the problem more quickly.

Thank you!

The problem was related to using UnsafeCommandBuffer (seems to be deprecated in macOS/iOS builds).

There is a patch in #3851

It works for me with the patched files, as long as I have Compatibility Mode (Render Graph Disabled) unchecked under Render Graph in the Graphics settings.

In Editor mode, the patched files worked but in build, the app crash

In NoesisRenderer.cs could you change this: to this (so basically removing the #if...#endif block)

It works for me with the patched files, as long as I have Compatibility Mode (Render Graph Disabled) unchecked under Render Graph in the Graphics settings.

Thanks, I will fix that. Compatibility mode is reported to give problems with Native plugins (like Noesis) in D3D12. If you are in Unity 6.0/6.1 I recommend disabling Compatibility Mode.

In Editor mode, the patched files worked but in build, the app crash

In NoesisRenderer.cs could you change this:

Code: Select all

    public static void RenderOffscreen(Noesis.View view, UnityEngine.Rendering.CommandBuffer commands, bool invalidate)
    {
      #if !ENABLE_URP_PACKAGE_RENDER_GRAPH
        // This a way to force Unity to close the current MTL command encoder
        // We need to activate a new encoder in the current command buffer for our Offscreen phase
        if (UnityEngine.SystemInfo.graphicsDeviceType == UnityEngine.Rendering.GraphicsDeviceType.Metal)
        {
            UnityEngine.RenderTexture surface = UnityEngine.RenderTexture.GetTemporary(1,1);
            commands.SetRenderTarget(surface, LoadAction.DontCare, StoreAction.DontCare, LoadAction.DontCare, StoreAction.DontCare);
            commands.ClearRenderTarget(false, false, UnityEngine.Color.clear);
            UnityEngine.RenderTexture.ReleaseTemporary(surface);
        }
      #endif

to this (so basically removing the #if...#endif block)

Code: Select all

    public static void RenderOffscreen(Noesis.View view, UnityEngine.Rendering.CommandBuffer commands, bool invalidate)
    {
        // This a way to force Unity to close the current MTL command encoder
        // We need to activate a new encoder in the current command buffer for our Offscreen phase
        if (UnityEngine.SystemInfo.graphicsDeviceType == UnityEngine.Rendering.GraphicsDeviceType.Metal)
        {
            UnityEngine.RenderTexture surface = UnityEngine.RenderTexture.GetTemporary(1,1);
            commands.SetRenderTarget(surface, LoadAction.DontCare, StoreAction.DontCare, LoadAction.DontCare, StoreAction.DontCare);
            commands.ClearRenderTarget(false, false, UnityEngine.Color.clear);
            UnityEngine.RenderTexture.ReleaseTemporary(surface);
        }

Apart of doing this i had to disable the metal validation flag. Now it works in editor and in build. Thanks!
