Track Editor
Fixed a bug where applying a material would reset other slots to smooth
UI
Fixed a faint outline around the Leth event banner on the home page
Applied two fixes that should prevent the Hub from failing to load anything at all
Yesterday’s undocumented fixes
Medal animation is no longer cut off after 2s
Your name is highlighted in pink again
Updated Physics
We’ve upgraded our engine from UE5.3 to UE5.8 for better physics!
As a result, most unexpected collisions on smooth surfaces have been eliminated.
Putting the shmoove back in shmoovement.
Updated Vents (Circuit only)
Feedback heard!
Vents were difficult to predict and interact with, so we’ve changed how they work.
Removed horizontal falloff
Added a reliable trigger near the grate for more consistent pops
This should raise the floor on interactions while maintaining the spirit of the prop.
For now, we’ve only replaced vents in the Circuit. We will add the new vents to the Track Editor soon(™) and phase out the old vents.
To make sure old tracks still work, any published tracks with the old vents will be unchanged–only new tracks will receive new vents.
Those are the big changes.
Here are the smaller changes:
Gameplay
Fixed an issue where all controller inputs were digital; sticks are now analog
Fixed an issue where medals on Happy Halloween weren’t granting the spooky skin
Changed the default ball skin so that new players see some texture
Ghost & Multiplayer fixes
Overhauled our ghost system for improved performance. You can now turn on up to 512 ghosts by accessing the new console command (`) in game.
Fixed an issue where PB ghosts weren’t updating for some players
Leaderboard changes to other players now correctly update their ghost entries
Fixed an issue where you couldn’t spectate ghosts in the Daily Challenge if you didn’t have Author Medal
Fixed an issue where players lost their hats after spectating
Fixed an issue where your spectate camera didn’t update to your active camera settings
Fixed an issue where you couldn’t spectate on the 1above/1below section without Author Medal
Fixed an issue where disabling ghosts didn’t disable ghosts
Fixed an issue in the Tower where other players wouldn’t restore visibility after hide/unhide
Fixed an issue where hide/unhide would restore disabled ghosts
UI
Fixed an issue where TopSpeed included the ball falling after finishing a track. This did not affect the achievement, but now accurately stops on finish.
Fixed an issue where the hat didn’t start in the correct position on the menu
Fixed an issue where the Medal unlock animation audio was cutting off
Fixed an issue where players could accidentally navigate to the leaderboard during gameplay and trigger a spectate, resulting in a fade-to-black
Fixed an issue where your TOP # placement after a track was always silver. Now in technicolor!
Fixed an issue where really really really long track names broke the Track Select UI. Now they scroll.
Audio
Fixed an issue where sound stopped playing after falling in the water 30 times
Rendering & Perf
Fixed an issue with our pixie particles that would sometimes result in poor FPS on loading a level until changing video quality or changing levels
Fixed an issue where particles were included in the post processing outlines, creating instances of bizarre lines & screen blur
5.8 is about 5% more optimized, so FPS should slightly improved across the board. Because I updated Tower lighting, FPS there might have degraded for some users. I’m on it!
Tracks
Updated the safe finish on 04 so that it doesn’t require slamming your head into a pole
Updated all Circuit vents to new vents
Returned Season 1 02’s first ramp to its original position (whoops!)
Raised the AT for Season 1 02 so it’s less impossible
Fixed a missing texture on both Tower version
Fixed a missing texture on 05
Updated lighting & disabled volumetric fog on both Towers
Shrank the stadium back to a normal size in the Towers
Track Editor
NEW BUG WITH UE5.8: objects with inverted scale have their normals inverted, too, creating an “inside out” appearance. We’re on it.
UE5.8 came with a better gizmo and some small fixes for free. Additionally:
Objects now have a minimum scale so that you they can’t become impossible to interact with
Fixed a rounding error which could cause tracks to have a Gold time faster than Author.
You can now hold space and drag pieces for building connected pieces more easily
Added alt+drag & copy/paste directions to the keys panel
Hub
Fixed an issue with the number of tracks displaying incorrectly
Fixed an issue where players could turn to pages above the number of existing pages
Improved reliability of list entries and ensured they don't get stuck in a load guard
Fixed an issue where list entries didn’t display the correct index number
Pages now work on your subscribed tracks tab, and you can now see ALL your subscribed tracks, not just the most recent 50.
After finishing track 11, your placements now show up like every other track instead of the track name
Cosmic ghosts no longer have a crazy PIP effect
Fixed splits not displaying when loading a checkpoints map you previously had a PB on, unless you obtained a new PB.
Fixed some characters used in UGC track names causing Leaderboards to fail to be accessed. You will now be able to play 'Gravity's last laugh' and 'dfgzdfgg' and get a time on the leaderboard.
Improved the mechanisms used for determining medals in the hub to reduce Steam requests, which should improve timeliness / responsiveness.
Fixed the Spooky Ball skin's unlock condition so that you can unlock it again.
Fixed a bug where pausing before a checkpoint or goal allowed you to pass through without triggering it.
You should now be able to unlock the "Fall in Water" achievement by... falling in water!
Starting tomorrow, the Daily Challenge will rollover at 9p ET instead of 6p ET. Trying to find a balance for our global balls!
Added a warning when our backend is down or undergoing maintenance so players know to expect certain behaviors.
Fixed an issue where Windows would sometimes prevent the app from launching.
- Changed how we resolve Hub track medals to make sure they're in sync with leaderboards
- Fixed an issue which could store a fake medal result for the session (don't worry, your PBs were not affected, this was just a display issue!)
- Fixed ghost ghost hats (on special balls)
- Fixed 'Race With Ghosts' making all balls share the same name
- Fixed a bug where occasionally the daily challenge would incorrectly display 'unranked'
- Ghosts using the snowglobe skin will now correctly display nameplates
- Fixed an issue where some skins would fail to load for ghosts
- Ghosts are now always viewable in the Daily Challenge, no need to beat Author
- If you PB on the Daily Challenge, it now posts that PB to the base track's leaderboard, too
- Spectating a ghost that was recorded before a specific date should no longer fail
