    heheh, yes. we have complete rewritten the way we render the 3d scene in order to optimise performance... so this SHOULD support 3gs and ip4. What the performance will be like, I dunno but it should be playable.

    Sorry this has taken so long but its really quite a challenge!

    Its being compiled right as I type this so now we need to test inhouse (to make sure we dont havea false start with UT3) and then we will release. Just stepping into a meeting to discuss when that will be but it will be this week sometime.

    Grand. Hoping to get it before I finish working for the week; this week is quite in work as nothing major has broken :P

    Unfortunately, getting it to work on 3gs and ip4 is proving very hard. I dunno what we can do, we've rewritten the whole graphics system and its only passable on ip4, barely. We're giving up for the holidays and will come back to it in the new year.

    User Test 3 (which has lots of new stuff, including those new graphics) may get pushed today if we can fix a very late showing bug :/

    Any luck with this? Also, what IOS is the minimum?

    it should at least work on 3gs and ip4 and iPad 1.... I'm not sure how well it will work but let us know. I know the dynamic helicopter is a problem so we might have to take that out for those devices...

    Latest news is we're def supporting 3GS and 4 but they need a lower performance version which will hopefully drop at the end of next week for final testing ;)

    Aye, it was to drop today but various personal issues have knocked our team sideways along with a few little technical hiccups. This game writing lark, not as easy as advertised. :/
    Thanks for your patience, we're keenly aware we've been promising 3gs and ipad people for a long long time now. I just hope when we deliver it actually works :/

    YEP! :D

    We're finalising our release candidate atm which will drop for testing over the next few days ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 801 ✭✭✭Wicklowandy


    Things going well:)

    Well, our RC is out (you should have gotten an email about it) and yes, everything seems to be going great!

    We've tons of good stuff happening for the game in March and we are hoping to release Ireland and Sweden in less than 2 weeks (we have to wait for the Apple people to give us the green light...).

    It should run on the iPad and iP4 now (we're testing that), which is nice! :) That turned out to be a lot more work than we thought but our amazing developers worked really hard to try and squeeze enough grunt out of the device to make it run at least half decently (we think!). Tell us how it works for you...
