Important: Basis on Safari 17.0

tldr: if you use basis in your project, you must re-import the module to run correctly on Safari 17.0.

Safari 17.0 has been released with a regression that causes basis transcode to fail in some cases. The regression has been reported and apple is busy working on a fix (more details here).

We found that recompiling the basis module with the latest emscripten toolchain seems to mitigate the issue and we’ve updated the editor’s basis module with a newly compiled version.

In order to get the new version of the basis module in your project, select the folder named basis.js and delete it. Then navigate to SETTINGS → RENDERING and click IMPORT BASIS. The new basis module will be imported:

If you still see issues with the new module please let us know!

Hello, I am experiencing the same issue in my engine-only project on iOS 17.0.1. At first, I suspected my own project, but then I saw that Playcanvas example projects also give the same error.

Do you have any solution suggestions for engine-only projects that do not use Basis.js?

We’ve just have not release examples with those yet, so the issue is still there for now.
