VisionOS: How to build an existing Unity app to run in the simulator?

Unity Engine

We have a Unity based AR app which we would to try out in the Vision Pro Simulator. However, I can’t get things setup correctly.

In build settings, I changed the target device to “VisionOS (experimental)” and built the app. If I open this app, it shows the visionOS target correctly, but the Vision Pro Simulator isn’t available as a run destination. For a blank visionOS app created with Xcode, it works, but not for my Unity project. How does Xcode decide when to show the simulator as a valid target?

Also, if I try to build the app, I get these errors:

–

chmod: /Users/tom/Desktop/Marble Builds/visionpro/Il2CppOutputProject/IL2CPP/build/deploy_x86_64/il2cpp: No such file or directory

It seems as if IL2CPP-related files are missing in the build?

Another challenge is that I am using the Dependency Resolver from Google to get Cocoa Pods into my app. Yet the resolver does not support visionOS targets yet, so it won’t setup the Pods and the .xcworkspace file correctly. Did anyone find a solution to this, or do I have to wait until Google updates the resolver package?

I forwarded your question to some folks who might know. Most of us who monitor these forums do not yet have access to Vision Pro.

I imagine that if we do not qualify by filling out the form to create spatial applications for vision pro, I ask:
Is it true that at some point it will open to everyone so that I can export from unity to xcode vision pro SIMULATOR?

i’m actually not sure if i’ve been approved but i do see visionpro as a build endpoint

however i also receive even when building a blank cube no-script sanity test scene

They just opened a dedicated visionOS forum which would probably be the best place to repost this question: https://forum.unity.com/threads/unity-at-apple-wwdc-2023-learn-to-build-for-the-apple-vision-pro.1446358/#post-9222024
