Zwift version 1.94 begins its phased rollout today. This is a minor update with two additional HUD metrics, new hardware support, and several bug fixes. Read on for details…
2 New HUD Metrics
This update adds 2 more metrics to the in-game HUD:
- Average W/kg
- Average Speed
These two metrics will be especially helpful to ride leaders targeting particular effort levels or speed in their rides.
Sennheiser Momentum Sport Support
On the heels of CORE sensor support released two weeks ago, this week’s update includes support for another device which transmits body temperature.
Zwift says, “You can now use Sennheiser Momentum Sport earbuds as a heart rate monitor AND body temperature sensor in Zwift, both of which can be made visible on the HUD. In the Pairing screen, open the Heart Rate card and select your Sennheiser Momentum Sport earbuds. You can configure the metrics shown in your HUD in Zwift Settings under the HUD tab.”
Outdoor Ride XP Bonus Bug Fix
Zwift started importing outdoor rides from Garmin and Wahoo back in April, but there was an odd bug: if your first ride of the week was an outdoor ride that was imported into Zwift, you wouldn’t get your streak extension XP bonus, even if you rode on Zwift later in the week!
Although not included in the release notes, Zwift tells us that this week’s update includes code to address the bug. One caveat: they will wait to trigger the fix until version 1.94 has fully rolled out (on Thursday or Friday) to ensure XP bonuses are granted properly.
Release Notes
Zwift provided notes on additional tweaks and bug fixes in this update:
- All workouts in the ‘3Run 13.1’ training plan are now available at the start of the week on Monday and can be completed in any order.
- Fixed an issue that could cause the Running workout ‘Hill + Tempo #2’ to be saved with an incorrect title.
- Fixed an issue that could cause the CORE Temperature label to overlap with the temperature reading in the new Ride Stats panel.
- Mac, PC: This update includes Zwift Launcher version 1.1.14 as the minimum-required launcher version.
