  • Fixed issue where typing links did not make them immediately clickable.
  • Fixed issue where emoji did not always render properly.
  • Fixed issue where blue bar sometimes displayed when it shouldn't have and didn't dismiss when it should. Bad blue bar.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Each message from a user is currently displayed with a picture / name header instead of joining with previous recent messages.
  • Multiple teams are not currently supported.
  • Live tile only clears when the app is launched. It is not synchronized with the unread / read state for specific messages.
  • Cannot copy text from a message.

As for Make it Rain: The Love of Money, publisher Game Troopers notes that this latest version fixes a nasty bug that prevented players from accessing the game menu:

Some users were complaining about some glitches that were hard to reproduce: it was happening just on Windows 10 and apparently only on some specific graphic cards. The result was a noisy glitch that was preventing users to actually access the game menu. Today's update fixes this issue.
