SwiftUSD v23.11.35

Addition of Hio, Glf, GeomUtil, and OpenSubdiv Shaders.

Important

Linux users: This release now links against Python 3.10 which differs with that of prior releases (pre v23.11.34) which used to link to Python 3.11, the intention is for a more out-of-the-box experience across the widest range of existing Linux users, if this has the opposite effect - please submit a new issue ticket and provide a more suitable Python version that works best for your use case, in addition to this if you are currently using Swift 5.9 - please upgrade to Swift 5.10 instead.

Changelog

  • Linux now links against Python 3.10 which differs with that of prior releases (pre v23.11.34) which used to link to Python 3.11.
  • Updated to the Swift 5.10 toolchain, in preparation for some changes to be added into Swift 5.10, where it will likely remain as the version minimum for the long haul.
  • Fix missing plugins on Linux when running the Bundler auto installer, you should no longer see any coding errors related to missing USD plugins upon this corresponding call in your own application: 
    Pixar.Bundler.shared.setup(.resources)
  • Addition of the following USD (pxr.Imaging) libraries:
    • Hio
    • Glf
    • GeomUtil

Note

We now have CI workflows in order for Linux Ubuntu (x86/64) and macOS (arm64),
you can always check their build status from the root of this project repo's README.

Usage

To use this release of Pixar's USD in your swift project, add the following to the dependencies section in your Package.swift file:

// swift-tools-version: 5.10

dependencies: [
  .package(url: "https://github.com/wabiverse/SwiftUSD.git", from: "23.11.35")
]

The Wabi Foundation uses SwiftUSD to build the Kraken metaversal creation suite, you can always find an up to date configuration to use for your own Swift project here.



Linux

For Linux, these are the only dependencies required, as MetaverseKit provides everything else.

Tip

If you are on a distro like Ubuntu there is a good chance you already have most of these installed.
