    Indeed, I've gone for the "modern" version, as much as I liked the gravel one when I did it, it all just blended into the scenery too much visually, and it was about 10x harder.

    I've got another build ready to release but I'm just making some more adjustments to it. This will be the final build that is being submitted too and therefore all your save data and the database itself has all been reset.

    One other thing, all the cars now have about 10-20% more power and they have a lot less engine inertia which makes them spin up at the start MUCH better. I always planned to do this anyway but wanted to do it near the end so all you testers got a bit more excited :)

    Ste.

    Hehe, tonight is the night that it gets submitted to Apple too, pretty exciting times! Hopefully I'll have a provisional release date soon, I need to clarify this with Apple themselves too.

    You will all have beta access to this final build for a week or so to build up a few times before release of course :)

    So won't our save data of this final beta be wiped in official release?

    Once you get the new update, you will be running the exact version that will be released in terms of save data and tracks, if I have to do another build for some reason it will only be a crash fix or optimisation. So set some good times :)

    Oh, great! :)
    I didn't know save data were "portable" from beta to final releases.

    The only reason I am resetting it is because I've tweaked the tracks, difficulty and speed so the ghosts and stuff will be out of date!

    The next build you get will erase everything, but this is the last time it will happen for sure before release :)

    I just received a notification about a new build, probably for Apple TV. Can't wait to check it out.

    Amazing work - congratulations!

    I've started pimping this on the NeoGAF Dirt Rally thread. So please let us know when you have a release date set.

    Cheers, The iOS one hasn't come back yet so that will be tonight more than likely. I have another little optimisation to add to the apple tv build which will allow motion blur to be on and keep it stable at 60hz, I just need to find time to write it tonight!

    My Mad Catz pad works on both tvOS and iOS, can you check yours is working please? If not then I really have no idea why not without buying the same pad for myself!

    BTW you got your Pikes Peak Wish Rush Rally 2 Style!

    Currently release looking at 5th of May pending App review. I need to let Apple know about this too.

    Great stuff thanks, make sure you mention 60hz too, because that's a real selling point to sim enthusiasts!
