Upgrade OVRTX to 0.5, OVStage to 0.2, and OvPhysX to 0.6.3

[nvsekkin]

Description

Upgrades the optional OV dependency set to:

• ovrtx==0.5.0.377615
• ovstage==0.2.0.377349
• ovphysx==0.6.3
• omniverseclient==2.74.0

All packages resolve from public PyPI. These versions form one compatibility set and must be upgraded together.

The change also updates the OvPhysX installation documentation, compatibility metadata, deformable rendering references, and CPU-resident selectors required by CPU-backed OvPhysX properties.

Migration

uv sync --inexact --extra ov

Use --extra ovrtx or --extra ovphysx when only one runtime is needed. CPU-backed OvPhysX property writes require CPU-resident values and selectors.

Known test state:

• OVStage color parity and the Kuka RTX Minimal black-surface case remain under investigation.

Neither case is masked or rebaselined by this PR.

Type of change

• Breaking change
• Documentation update

Release backport

• Backport this pull request to the active release branch after it merges into develop

Reviewed the coordinated OV compatibility-set upgrade to OVRTX 0.5.0.377615, OVStage 0.2.0.377349, OvPhysX 0.6.3, and omniverseclient 2.74.0. The dependency pins, compatibility metadata, installation guidance, CPU-resident selectors, and renderer golden references are updated consistently; no actionable candidate findings were supplied.

• Design and architecture: The existing version-based compatibility architecture remains intact: runtime behavior is selected from installed package metadata at established OVStage 0.2, OvPhysX 0.6, and OVRTX 0.5 boundaries. The root version table, optional extras, and isaaclab_ov package dependency reflect the coordinated compatibility set.
• API: The dependency upgrade is explicitly marked as breaking and includes migration guidance. The OV extras, package-level OVStage requirement, OVRTX installation error, and OvPhysX documentation use the updated versions consistently, without removing or renaming public symbols.
• Implementation: The pin-consistency test was updated, CPU-backed deformable material selectors are explicitly allocated on CPU, and compatibility-module documentation matches the existing fallback paths. The regenerated Franka renderer baselines carry some review risk because binary image differences are represented only by new LFS hashes, particularly given the noted unresolved color-parity investigation, but the patch provides no concrete failure demonstrating that these baselines are incorrect.

No blocking issues. No inline issue met the actionable-evidence threshold; the assessment above records the review feedback.

Automated review; human maintainers own approval decisions.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge; the coordinated dependency pins, supported-platform lock resolution, compatibility metadata, and CPU-resident selector changes are internally consistent.

Summary

This PR upgrades the optional OV runtime compatibility set and updates the associated installation metadata, compatibility documentation, deformable-property selectors, and rendering baselines.

• Pins OvPhysX 0.6.3, OVRTX 0.5.0.377615, OVStage 0.2.0.377349, and Omniverse Client 2.74.0 across project metadata and the lockfile.
• Keeps the individual ovphysx and ovrtx extras paired with the matching OVStage release.
• Makes deformable-material selectors explicitly CPU-resident for the new OvPhysX behavior.
• Refreshes OVRTX RGB/RGBA baselines for the Franka cable, cloth, and soft tasks.
