We plan to continue the R&D through 2024. It's possible we'll able to support Linux in late-2024 but cautiously I'd estimate mid-2025. We'd love to hear more about how you're using, or planning to use, our Maps SDK for Unreal Engine - feel free to email me: mbranscomb@esri.com. Thanks

Hi, Thanks for confirming you were able to get your Lite license string. Sorry if you had trouble finding the right information - the information you needed was at the top of the Get a License topic: We're always looking for ways we can improve the doc, particularly regarding licensing and deployment. If you have any suggestions, we'll be happy to take them. Thanks

That's excellent information, thanks - I've added to our internal issue. Thanks Mike

Hi, Did you get all your questions answered? Regarding... + Lastly, if I can't have a Runtime License, can I still deploy my app with the watermarks intact? You can't deploy your app unlicensed (and therefore with the watermarks intact). Before your application is deployed to production, you must license it. But it may be worth noting that you can increase the license level of an application. For example some developers choose to deploy their app with a Lite license string (which would remove the watermark) and then in code apply a higher level of license based on the user signing in to their portal, or by setting a license string. Thanks

Hi, Can you share any more information about how you use the CreateRasterDataset function? e.g. Are these single band or multi-band raster datasets? Do you create single, standalone raster datasets or do you mosaic multiple raster datasets into a single image? Do you need to update/replace images or update pixels/cells within rasters? What type/format are you creating e.g. JPEG, TIFF, or geodatabase raster dataset? Do you need to specify compression when creating JPEG file or geodatabase rasters? Do you need to build pyramids? (improves the display performance of raster datasets) Do you need to calculate statistics? (allows applications to properly stretch and symbolize raster data for display) Thanks Mike

Hi, We are currently evaluating support for Linux. To help inform our plans support, we would love to find out more about your plans for both development and deployment of apps on Linux. Do you want to both develop on Linux and deploy apps to Linux? For development and/or deployment, which Linux distributions are you intending to use/target? (e.g. Ubuntu, SUSE, Red Hat, CentOS) Do you need support for just x64 or are you instead/also looking at ARM64? What type of hardware/devices will you be building apps for? Anything else... Thanks

I see you're using the map type local, note that currently "The OSM 3D Buildings layer will work in global scenes when using the geographic coordinate system WGS84 or the projected coordinate system Web Mercator (Auxiliary Sphere), and in local scenes when using the geographic coordinate system WGS84." (Release notes | ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unity | ArcGIS Developers). I suspect that when you include the basemap, the map is assuming the spatial reference of the basemap, which is Web Mercator, and then cannot support displaying the global buildings layer. Note you should see layer load or view state warnings to indicate this. This is the default behavior for establishing the spatial reference of the map unless you explicitly set this property. Are you able to use the global map mode?

Hi, Performance can depend on many factors, including the specifications of your machine/hardware, your connection speed (if you're using a service), the I3S version of the service and if it was published with Draco geometry compression and Basis Universal texture compression, and if you've modified the Quality Scaling Factor property on the Camera or changed the viewport size. Can you provide more detail on: Which service(s) are you using? (if it's public please provide the URL, otherwise please share the JSON from the SceneServer endpoint) How long does it take to render? What camera viewpoint are you testing/measuring? (ideally share the values of Long/Lat/elevation (X,Y,Z) and heading, pitch) What's your connection speed? Thanks

China Geodetic Coordinate System 2000 (CGCS2000) is now supported. For more information see topic Spatial references | ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unity | ArcGIS Developers.

Hi, Can you provide a bit more information about what you're trying to achieve? Rseason to raycast on the map might be to get an elevation value or retrieve attribute/metadata information about a specific spatial feature (e.g. building). Based on a raycast, we effectively perform an "identify" operation. For example, here's a sample showing how to identify specific features from a 3D Object Scene Layer and retrieve an attribute value: Visualize 3DObject ID's | ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unity | ArcGIS Developers. We typically think of "map tiles" as one of the tiled layer types, either vector tile layer or image tile layer which don't generally support identify operations.

@DougBrowning Thanks for adding me to the thread, I'll see what I can find out.

Hi, Yes, you can work with private / secured ArcGIS content and services in the Maps SDK for Unreal Engine via OAuth 2.0, and if only using ArcGIS Platform location services or ArcGIS Online then you can also use API Keys. For more information see: Authentication | ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unreal Engine | ArcGIS Developers Introduction to security and authentication | Documentation | ArcGIS Developers Thanks
