Notes

We're releasing a small patch update for r397 as it's the latest stable release, we're still a few weeks away from the next stable release, and there are some important updates from the latest beta releases we'd like to bring to you before then - most notably an update for Mobile Advert to use the latest SDK versions, which should resolve a warning that appears on the Google Play Console.

In other news, we are also planning to make our first Long Term Support (LTS) release from the r397 release. We've done quite a bit of work behind-the-scenes to facilitate this, including a couple of internal changes in this update. In summary we plan to release an r397 LTS release shortly before the next stable release comes out, and support that with essential updates only, a bit like what we're doing with this update, but ongoing until the end of next year. We'll have more to say about that at the time, but we just wanted to mention it's in the works and means if you choose to, you'll be able to stay on the r397 release for much longer.

In case you missed it the r397 release notes are here, and the original release video is included again above.

  • Huge thanks for the LTS work going! Much appreciated.

  • Long Term Support versions are very welcome.

  • My project won't open on this new version. It claims it's not a valid C3 folder project, but it works just fine on the previous R397

  • Thanks for Mobile Adverts update.

  • I've been wanting an LTS version for a long time!

  • In this version, Mobile Advert doesn't work with Minify (Advanced).

  • Hey, could you please describe the specific changes that were made for "Work around Safari bug that prevented changing volume of music tracks" ?

    I'll work to build out a full bug report but as of today none of the sounds or music from my projects play on iOS devices at all when built with Xcode on v397.2. Everything still works perfectly when building with v397

    • Now tested multiple audio tracks and projects, all the same issue. Everything works perfectly on v397, but no sound or audio playing at all on iPhone with v397.2

      I've filled out and submitted an issue including example project:

      github.com/Scirra/Construct-bugs/issues/8205

      would appreciate if you could share any details on the changes made regarding safari audio in this build so I can also look into it.

  • Great news!
