Official AR Foundation v5.0

When using the simulator, regular objects aswell as tracked planes in the scene don't show up in the game view (only the simulation environment and overlay ui in my case). Only when i manually set the SimulatedCamera's culling mask in the editor to their layer (it's set to none by default). The XR Origin camera's culling mask seems to be unused as long as the Ar camera background component is active.
Is this expected or does it require another setup step that i missed?
ubuntu 22.10, Unity 2021.3.20f1, Standard pipeline, Ar foundation 5.1.0-pre.3

Edit: it's the ARCameraBackground component, that's faulty. It just renders the simulated camera output on top.

 

Hi! I'm working with an AR project on Unity 23.1 and as soon as I check google ARcore in my project settings I get this:

Library\PackageCache\com.unity.xr.arfoundation@5.0.5\Runtime\InternalUtils\FindObjectsUtility.cs(66,27): error CS0117: 'Object' does not contain a definition for 'FindObjectsByType'

Library\PackageCache\com.unity.xr.arfoundation@5.0.5\Runtime\InternalUtils\FindObjectsUtility.cs(66,48): error CS0103: The name 'FindObjectsSortMode' does not exist in the current context

Has anyone ever seen this?

 

I have the same issue. Thanks Flavelius, the culling mask does the trick for now. Using Unity 2022.2.10, URP 14.0.6, ArFoundation 5.0.5.

I am the one who create that issue

 

Just to log the answer for other users because the staff didn't answer you on this forum

 

MakeContentAppearAt(content, content.transform.position, m_Rotation);

for the ARSessionOrigin this is still not resoved

 

The link in the migration guide to the GitHub is broken. Please, provide the code @andyb-unity @CiaranWills

As Apple ARKit HandTracking support in VisionOS,can we get HandTracking info by com.unity.xr.arfoundation?
If not how can we get HandTracking info in VisionsOS?

Thank you for your reply,I got it!

 

Tried version 5.1.0 and i get this error here using unity 2022.3.9:

Code (CSharp):

Library\PackageCache\com.unity.xr.arfoundation@5.1.0\Runtime\VisualScripting\Units\Events\EventUnits\SessionStateChangedEventUnit.cs(50,30): error CS0506: 'SessionStateChangedEventUnit.StopListening(GraphStack)': cannot override inherited member 'EventUnit<ARSessionState>.StopListening(GraphStack)' because it is not marked virtual, abstract, or override

 

Hi there. I have question regarding to Light Estimation.
On ARCameraManager I have set "Everything" on Light Estimation drop down list.
In the code, I get all variables. and use them:

1. var maincolor = obj.lightEstimation.mainLightColor;
2. var mainLightDirection = obj.lightEstimation.mainLightDirection;
3. var colorCorrection = obj.lightEstimation.colorCorrection;
4. var averageBrightness = obj.lightEstimation.averageBrightness;
5. var averageColorTemperature = obj.lightEstimation.averageColorTemperature;
6. var averageIntensityInLumens = obj.lightEstimation.averageIntensityInLumens;
7. var averageMainLightBrightness = obj.lightEstimation.averageMainLightBrightness;

But only 1 and 2 has values. changing "Everything" to each one only, results same thing, on some cases only 4 and 6 only work.

Question is, i want to use light direction and averageIntensityInLumens(or averageMainLightBrightness, or averageBrightness) to control main light intensity and angle. so how to do it?

 

And on IOS Selecting "Eveything" turns to front camera Have you tested this before releasing?

 

It depends on the platform and specific device. It changes values that are available for your device.

 

Hello @andyb-unity thanks for your reply. is there and updated configuration list for ARfoundation 5 (and why not for 6), or it is all the same?
As for now i enabled the Main light direction and intensity, and only direction and color have value, the intensity has not.
Thanks.

 

Unity 2022.3.5, ARFoundation/ARCore 5.0.7, Soft shadow works perfectly.
Unity 2022.3.11(12 as well), ARFoundation/ARcore 5.1.0, soft shadow doesn't work on Android(haven't tested other platforms, but in editor it works)

When i turn off Google ARCore from XR Plug-in Management, soft shadows are working again

 

Is this working ok with URP on Unity LTS 2021.3.29 on iOS? Having a lot of problems after I switched to URP (black background, trails)

 

Is there any simple way to implement an in-app photo capture?
I feel like users would want to save pictures of themselves or the AR experience they're in. I would expect this to be an obvious feature to have in the samples repo but I could not find an example anywhere in the whole AR Foundation samples project.
A screenshot includes UI and is not as user friendly when they have to press a physical button on the side of the device, nor does it capture video.

 

There is an asset called Native Gallery for Android & iOS which provides saving your image in the Gallery app on mobile phone by default as well as the example of making a screenshot. Here you can add mechanics that hide UI during the screenshot.
