Hello,

I am looking for some assistance in displaying ArcGIS3DObjectSceneLayer remotely on a quest 2. I have been able to successfully import a custom 3D Object Scene Layer. However, when I export a .apk and load using SideQuest, the textures of the layers have glitchy clipping near their edges of where different census tracts meet  (Please see the attached video and forgive the poor quality as I don't know how to screen record on a quest 2 so I just used my phone camera. )

Also noted is that when I run the scene in Unity using oculus link or in scene view on my computer, this glitching/ clipping does not occur.

I also just tested how the layer looks when using the ArcGIS Maps SDK UI Map creator and can report that the clipping between layers also does not occur. So the problem may be isolated to how I have created the map using the API. I need to use the API method as I want to be able to activate and de active layers using buttons in unity. I have attached my map creator script at the bottom of this post.

 

My process for getting the layer visible on quest 2 is:

Following the official ESRI instructions as well as other help on this community, I imported  a ArcGIS3DObjectSceneLayer into unity by using the following:

  1. Convert 2D Field Data into 3D data using the extrusion tool in ArcGIS Pro. 
  2. In ArcGIS Pro, use the Geoprocessing tool "Layer 2D to Feature class" to convert to multipatch.
  3. Used the Geoprocessing tool "Create 3D Object Scene Layer Content" to convert the multipatch to 3D object Scene Layer. This could then be hosted on the living atlas and imported as a layer into Unity.
  4. I created a map using the C# API.

Other Factors to note are:

And have you found a solution for the glitching? First i used not a URP pipeline but a 3D project. The details was little less but not glitching. Now i also must use a URP project because of the clipping of image layers. Now i also have glitching on my quest 2.

Vector layers didn't have that problem, only the textured (png) parts in my case. Like the leaves of a tree.
