Real Racing 1.1 Submitted, Includes Bug Fixes And More
June 16, 2009
Firemint has announced that their critically acclaimed Real Racing for the iPhone and iPod touch will soon be receiving a much needed update that will squash some bugs and add a few interesting items.
The 1.1 update should fix a crash bug that caused the game to exit after racing for a while. The update will also add a few items that the team just couldn't get into the game prior to its launch, such as some of the previously unbranded vehicles will now feature sponsorship from "Team Flight Control" as you can see in the image above.
The rest of the release notes are listed below:
- Added dynamic environment shadows to all vehicles on screen
- Added Flight Control sponsorship to some of the unbranded vehicles
- Accelerometer is now turned off during menu screens to save power
- Device fades to power saving mode after 1 minute of inactivity
- Updated league splits are now based on best times through any given sector of a race
- Various improvements and bug fixes
The Real Racing 1.1 update was submitted to Apple last week, but Apple has been hit hard with developers trying to get their iPhone OS 3.0 compatible updates approved, so we honestly don't know when to expect it. Just be patient.
