AR core almost dead in ue 4.25

Development Platform & Builds XR Development

I was looking forward to developing in 4.26 but I’ve tested on both platforms in 4.26 and it is even more broken than 4.25.

  • ARKit camera overlay doesn’t work on older IOS devices iPad (2017), iPhone SE
  • ARCore camera overlay stops working when the level & AR session are restarted
  • *ARCore passthrough material doesn’t work, there seems to be no way to update the material’s texture successfully *- fixed this by adding a Passthrough Material Update Component then adding the affected component
  • ARCore performance is much worse than 4.25
  • Packaged APK size is much larger than in 4.25
