Model targets using iOS and Mac

By cried on Thu, 08/09/2018 - 07:52

Hi there,

I'm using a Mac with Unity deploying on iOS.

Is it possible to create model targets to deploy on iOS?? All I can find is how to deploy on Android with Windows. Need to deploy asap as have tested everything with image targets (stupidly thought it would be a simple transition to model targets). Worst comes to worst I can use Android instead of iOS but I have no alternative to using Mac.

 

Any quick help would be so appreciated!

Hello,

Currently, the Model Targets Generator only functions on Windows machines. It is also not recommended to use it on Windows VMs (running on Mac).

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Thanks for replying, that's really unfortunate!

What are the implications of using Windows VMs, and if this works will it run on iOS or would I have to use Android.

Thanks,

Hello,

If it runs on a Windows VM, I'm not aware of any functional limitations for any platform (Android, iOS or UWP). The dataset should work on any device regardless.

Let us know if you find otherwise.
