Game Update - March 16th, 2021

Thanks, but not going to have time for faffing unfortunately. Thanks for trying though.

All you need to do is repair your sensors and choose a different trainer, doesnt take more than a minute or two.

Hi Marco,

Yes we are working on it. Totally understand that it is affecting your rides.

Basically a shambles, this update:

  • Game crashing when using chat
  • Non-smart power estimating suddenly wildly inaccurate
  • Dodgy ANT+ and Bluetooth connectivity, with no RX logging
  • Various other reports of newly observed problems, like being teleported to the wrong world

These aren’t minor problems. It’s not good enough.

Also, I suppose in reality the save without exit function was included in the release as a normal feature save for some magic bit that every employee had to toggle at home within the next 24 hours to see if the thing would self-destruct or not, after which the magic bit was toggled for everyone. And this was then explained as some new capability to update the software without having to update it.

My photos still don’t upload to Strava.

In terms of other serious issues (e.g. groups of users who can’t use Zwift at the moment), add:

  • Wired trainers don’t work any more

QA (lack of it) seems to be getting worse, not better.

Feature toggling also reduces the risk of introducing new features. In case the ā– ā– ā– ā–  hits the fan, they can just toggle the feature off for all users.

I have exactly the same issue with no first gear and the 5 in front of the Gear. Driving me nuts!

Is this a Zwift issue?

Hi. I saw someone posted on the forum that since the update Zwift has the gears on the Wattbike as running from 2-23 rather than 1-22. In view of this I’ve been in one gear higher than usual and seem to be putting out the same number of watts. As for the 5, apparently it’s just an ā€œharmless bugā€-irritating all the same though!

All the best.

Changing the description of a custom workout, I see the line ā€˜11GUI_EditBox’ blinking just to the right of wherever the cursor is.

Oh! I wonder if that’s why my Kickr Bike dropped yesterday. Wouldn’t reconnect either. Switched to ANT+, which means no ā€˜steering’.

So, that leads up to ā€˜When is steering going to be available in ANT+ mode’?

exactly. I and other people cannot use a trainer. Zwift should solve this and then deal with minor problems. I refuse to pay for something that has stopped working.

I’ve had trouble on both iPad and Appletv with the camera zooming in and out like it does with speed changes but speed on HUD is not changing. It’s not all the time, will just be steady cruising and then it’s like it can’t figure out how to draw me properly.

Would you like my files from the Thursday 18 March Hilly Vanilli Chase D group lead crash?
Mine is as others described. Happened at 30 minutes. Zwift just went away. Files were present.

Hi , just tried it out today , there is an update , and my power numbers seem to be back to normal now … I’m using Android App and Tacx Blu Matic turbo with Tacx Sensors

This is good news! :+1:
