Hello Zwifters!
Phased rollout of game version 1.64 begins today on Windows / macOS / Android.
Phased rollout of iOS / tvOS begins tomorrow.
Four event-only routes will be getting route badges: Queen’s Highway After Party, Hilly Route Reverse, London Classique Reverse, and Park Perimeter Reverse
Fixed an issue that could cause Climb Portal route distances to be inconsistent between the route description, in-game HUD, and results display.
Fixed an issue where “Keep Everyone Together” (aka rubber-banding) speeds could be inconsistent between events and meetups.
Fixed an issue that could cause some home screen cards to be missing images when using Zwift in Italian, German, Spanish, or Chinese.
Fixed an issue that could cause the Badges screen to unintentionally appear when navigating on the home screen.
Fixed an issue that could cause some text elements to display incorrectly on the home screen after changing languages.
Fixed an issue that could cause the Braking Sensitivity setting to not be visible in Settings.
The About tab is now available in Settings and contains information about the game version and build number.

Looks like no change with basic shadows on ultra profile. @shooj@evan-zwift can you guys please get @Jon to pay attention to the feedback on this? It’s universally disliked, without a single positive comment from anyone affected.
It does when using the basic shadows on iOS at least. The recent Stage 5: Lap it Up monthly races on London, which uses the draft and ghost power ups, showed how useless the ghost power up is now. You can easily see where riders are by just looking for their shadow.
Also, the fire socks still leave trails when the rider is ghosted.
Just finished an event on newly updated 1.64.0 on ATV and the most recent update to Android companion app, and my completed group ride does not exist in zwift activities, and ergo was not uploaded to Strava.
Are there server delays right now? Or is this a bug in the new game update?
Is there a reason why I can make an event for three of the new routes but for one I cant ?
The Queen’s Highway After Party isnt available while the others are.
It’s happened before that Zwift staffers put up a post, initially hidden to us here, some days before an announcement. Then they can make sure it’s all ready to go before simply making it visible to us on the appropriate day, rsther than them having to post it from scratch.
