2025.07 - Apple Silicon Support

Hey everyone! We have an exciting release for you today with 2025.07!

This release's headliner is Apple Silicon support!

The viewer now ships as a "Universal Binary" that contains both the Intel and Apple Silicon versions of the viewer. We've measured significant performance gains on the Apple Silicon version in particular. Numbers coming soon!

Additionally, we have various WebRTC fixes!

Known Issues:

  • Apple Silicon does not support convex decomposition for physics meshes
    • We are looking to have a new convex decomposition solution for generating physics meshes in a subsequent release for all platforms
  • Apple Silicon does not support pathfinding tools
  • Navigation buttons in the in-viewer browser are no longer present for marketplace and search
    • We will be restoring these in a future update
  • Subtle rendering differences might be noticed on certain configurations and EEP environments
    • We are working to improve these.
