iOS - Bug Stern Pinball Arcade cross-purchase on iOS - is it supposed to be working?

[Gorgias32]

I own seasons 1-3 of TPA on iOS, and bought the Star Trek/ACDC pack for Stern Pinball Arcade. I have read in some forums and announcements that cross purchase is implemented, but I am not able to launch or restore High Roller Casino or Harley.

I remember in a thread a few months ago that someone said that they had it working on iOS, not sure if they were a beta tester or something like that. My question is, is this feature supposed to be implemented in the current version for all users? Because for me, it is not working.

I'm running an iPad Air 1.

There should be an update releasing within the hour. Check after you get it. If it's still not working, try restore purchases. Let us know if that works.

Could you please reset the leaderboards for Star Trek and Mustang? They are somehow being populated by TPA leaderboards. AC/DC is ok...

Does not work for me after the latest update: logged out, logged in, restored purchases but the tables I own in Pinball Arcade are still locked out.

And now the packs can be purchased... but I'll hold off until the Star Trek and Mustang's leaderboards issues are resolved.

I tried again after the update, no dice, it says "farsight purchases restored", but the tables are still locked in the UI and when I click Buy it takes me to the app store and wants to charge me $4.99 for each.

I bought all as season packs in TPA, possibly this is a clue?

Same for me! Restored purchases, logged out, logged in, made sure it was the same login as TPA. I'm also a season purchaser since season 2, I think.

I also own all TPA tables in iOS and tried what everyone else tried in SPA iOS and it still attempts to charge me for the tables that I already own in TPA.

Same thing here, cross purchases don't work.

Separate issue: Lots of stuttering on iPad 2 air with most recent update. Until now, ball movement has been totally smooth.

Another iOS update, still no cross-purchase working. Also, AC/DC instant info is still not working.

What exactly was fixed in this update? Was it just to prep the platform for Ghostbusters? Are there release notes published anywhere? The only information I can see in the app store is "bug fixes".

No cross purchases seem to work for me either. Will not play (or purchase new tables for) either app until this gets fixed. Long line of Farsight bumbling.

So I emailed support at farsight and told them cross-purchasing wasn't working, they responded within a day and fixed it on their end. Now I have Harley and High Roller Casino working in SPA via cross-purchase (on iOS).

I can't imagine the strategy for cross purchasing is to have everyone request it be manually enabled via support email, but maybe that's what they are doing, or possibly it only works in some specific scenarios.

In any case, I'm not sure if it's been reported, but in High Roller Casino on iOS SPA, the insert lights are all messed up - it's particularly visible when it goes to the backglass view when you are rolling the dice, but also visible in a lot of the inserts on the playfield as well, and the slot machine spinners don't look right either. But the table plays really well, hopefully they have logged the bug and will fix it in an upcoming release.
