A sample project demonstrating a usecase for the DrawableQueue API in RealityKit 2 – which currently lacks Documentation – by implementing support for animated (transparent) GIFs.
Disclaimer: While this implementation certainly performs rather well there are probably a lot of optimizations that could be made here. Currently a MTLTexture is being created for every frame of a gif which might not be the best way to do this – I'm still learning and do not have an in-depth knowledge of Metal.
*Proper code commenting and maybe a tutorial will follow. *
