2025.06.01 WattGames v1.179b Release Notes (replacing v1.178p)

New Features & User-Requests

  • Initial Cycling Power Service (CPS) support for non-FTMS trainers (Tacx).

  • Window Display-Mode Options: Borderless Fullscreen; Exclusive Fullscreen; Windowed.

  • Early-beta QHD (2560 × 1440) resolution option.

Connectivity Improvements

  • Smarter device scan: instantly selects FTMS or CPS and retries cleanly if the first subscribe fails.

  • Fewer “unknown UUID” and null-exception pop-ups during pairing.

  • Bike-connection manager rebuild; re-entering the main menu no longer loses the trainer handle.

General Bug Fixes and UX Improvements

  • Correction for music default volume shipping at 0 %.

  • Death-screen “Quit” now behaves like End Ride → summary screen, Strava upload, FIT file download.

  • First-run Strava token file now created in a single launch (no more relaunch loop).

  • Null-reference guard on backend calls that could break auto-saves.

  • Global error-handler now logs BLE exceptions without interrupting gameplay.

  • Several quality-of-life code-reference clean-ups.

Rendering & Visuals

  • Removed unused path-tracing hooks; minor GPU savings.

  • Slight shadow-cascade tuning – richer near-bias shadows.

  • Ambient-zenith colour tweak.

Known Issues

  • QHD mode is beta: UI may appear soft on some monitors. Default is still 1080 p.

  • CPS trainers without crank-revolution / wheel-circumference data will show 0 RPM. Smart bikes are unaffected.
