Device/OS: iPad 3 / 5.1.1

Bug Description: iCade support crashing the app.

Steps To Reproduce: iCade support is on. As soon as I move down the stick to launch the ball (or press the launch button for those tables which doesn't have a plunger, like AFM) the app closes itself.

Frequency. Every time.

Additional Comments:

Device/OS: iPAD1

Bug Description: Black Hole pop bumpers are octagonal, flippers are long and skinny (ball does not rest on flipper properly because of graphic problem)

Steps To Reproduce: Start Black Hole

Frequency: Every time for the last 4 (?) months

Additional Comments: Long time waiting for this to be fixed. I tried deleting app, deleting table, deleting my give-a-**** meter, nothing worked.

Device/OS: Ipad2 6.1

Bug Description: On the table select menu & the actual game the animated part of the topper on White Water is black.

Steps To Reproduce: Highlight it, select it and watch the camara pan to the top of the backglass.

Frequency: 100%

----------------------------------------------

Device/OS: Ipad2 6.1

Bug Description: The red lights under the whirlpool show through the ball even though the ball is above them.

Steps To Reproduce: Hit the whirlpool shot from the upper flipper

Frequency: 100%

Device/OS: iPad 4 / iOS 6.1.3

Bug Description: High scores for Space Shuttle will not stay in high score list.


Steps To Reproduce: Watch your high scores before and after finishing the regular goals.

Frequency: unknown.

Additional Comments: I had at least two high scores listed before completing the regular goals. My highest so far had been 1,658,580, which still shows up on the leader board as "My Score", but none of my scores is in the high score list displayed in the game. After starting the wizard goals, any high score achieved does not stay on the in-game list. When you achieve a high sore, immediately checking the high score list simply shows the defaults.

This bug reported to FarSight's support address.

Device: iPad 4

All tables will pause randomly when using the flipper buttons.

Device: iPhone 5
OS: 6.1.3 not jailbroke.

Table affected: space shuttle

Problems: player 2s score display doesn't work and camera angles (all 4 of them) are way too tight. You can't see the U-S-A rollovers at all on any camera angle, or the outlanes on any but 3. On the other 3 angles it even crops the bottom of the flippers off.

Frequency: all the time

This happens to me on iPad1 as well. NONE of my high scores stick!

HCTHMTIB!

I have been having a problem with the Black Hole game ( ios 5.1.1 ipad 3) Every time that I have gotten the top high score, the game asks me to post to facebook, but when I come back to the game, it resets all the high scores to default. It's like the game just resets when I get the top score. This has happened to me 3 times now.

I used to own a Black Hole game, back in the 80s, and you guys have done a really great job recreating this classic, but there are a few things I have noticed.

The top rollover lane partitions are blue in the original game and have sides. The top ball gate from where the ball enters the playfield when it is shot up, doesn't have any bounce to it, if the ball hits back against it. Compare to your Gottlieb Genie game, it has the correct bounce.

The sound is not correct in various spots in the game. It would be nice to hear the correct multi-ball background sound. Also you don't play the correct game ending sound, then go back to the standby speech when the game is over ( No one escapes the Black Hole, Do you dare enter the Black Hole).

Also when you have captured both upper and lower playfield balls, the game speech should start saying Enter Gravity Tunnel. When you tilt the original game it says "TILT, Tilt, tilt", then ends the current ball. If you slam the original game it will state "Oh No", and end the game.

In my game the back glass had sequential lights dancing around the backfield box, and the round plate with the astronauts in the center would rotate clockwise.

This is nit picking, but if you REALLY want to make this one accurate...

Device/OS: iPhone 4S, iOs 6.1.3

Bug Description: Swipe nudging immediately crashes the app

Steps To Reproduce: Activate swipe to nude, swipe during gameplay

Frequency: Always

Additional Comments: This bug has been present for two updates now I think and should really be fixed. It makes playing tables for high scores almost impossible unless you're willing to activate the shake option and go Tourette in public.

Device/OS: iPod touch 4g/iOS 6.1.2

Bug Description: "Tilt" remains locked even after completing all the wizard goals.

Steps To Reproduce: Complete all the wizard goals on any table, and the tilt option should still be locked.

Frequency: This occurs on every table that has the wizard goals completed.

Device/OS: iPad mini

Bug Description: Going to the manage tables option crashes the app.

Steps To Reproduce: Go to the manage tables option.

Frequency: Every time so far.

Additional Comments: Tried with and without iCade turned on, seems the same both times. Bummer as I wanted to delete my AFM so as to get the new version with the faster jets and I can't.

Ditto for me, plus the missing middle score line on the same table.

Also I get a intermittent random pauses during game play on all tables since the March update.

I'm using IOS 6.12 on an iPad gen3

Mine also crashes when I try to manage tables. iPad 3, latest os.

iPad 2 ios 6.01

Space shuttle not saving local highscores.

Here's a workaround for you: use iExplorer and manually go in and delete the file to force a new download.

Device/OS: iPod touch 5 version 6.1.3

Bug description: On White Water, after shooting insanity falls while holding the left flipper, sometimes the ball will go through the left flipper. Sometimes it will only go partially through, (and bounce up to the right flipper) and sometimes it will go all the way through.

Steps to reproduce: Shoot insanity falls and hold the left flipper.

Frequency: Fairly rare

Additional comments: Most of the times I encountered this bug, I was attempting a 5-way combo, which means most of the time I accessed the upper playfield through the Spine Chiller, and not usually through No Way Out. It may happen more often when the ball is going faster, but I'm not sure.

Same iPad, latest OS; no issue.

Some great advice from this board that I hadn't previously thought of myself when having issues is to power-cycle the iPad. I know I almost never turn mine off, so it's easy to forget that it is a computer and therefore clearing the memory from time to time isn't a bad thing!

Device/OS: iPhone 4s / 5.1.1

Bug Description: In landscape mode, button text is not centered and missing characters

Steps To Reproduce:
Go into a table. Flip phone to landscape mode. Button text is no longer centered, and "Leaderboards" becomes "Leaderboar". Flip phone to portrait. Text is centered and correct. Flip phone horizontal again, and problem reappears.

Frequency: Always

Second one:

Device/OS: iPhone 4s, iPad 3 / 5.1.1

Bug Description: No indication of further options in "Options" screen

Steps To Reproduce:
With iPhone or iPad in PORTRAIT mode, go to Options screen. There is no indication that there are more options hidden below.

In LANDSCAPE mode, the options screen shows up/down arrows which imply more options.

Frequency: Always
