Windows building XCode/iOS ARFoundation creates unbuildable project (with sample project)

Recreate Steps:

1. https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/arfoundation-samples download and build in Unity 2019.1.3f1
   
2. Copy project to Max OSX
3. Profit. You'll see the ARReferenceImages assets are messed up.

 

Hey Louis, I don't have a mac to reproduce but error occurs with windows ios builder and can't build; did you log a bug for Unity and please send link to vote it?
Thanks !

 

The temporary solution is each time you build the XCode project with Unity, you need to go into the created folder and delete the two directories:
Unity-iPhone/ARReferenceImages.xcassets
Unity-iPhone/ARReferenceObjects.xcassets

Then you can build the application with iOS Builder.... I would assume it will fix the issue with XCode, too.

You have to do this every time now since they started creating those directories in ARFoundation 2.1.0. It's really annoying.

I have not tested this fix with ARFoundation 2.2.0 yet.

 

Thanks a bunch @Kholeslaw , that works for non-image/object AR apps;

if these directories are deleted are you aware of any image/object recognition workaround?
