| Issue | Platform | Workaround | |-------|----------|-------------| | Cloud save fails to upload | Switch | Manually upload.

This feature provided a sense of scale to the game’s massive peaks and deep valleys that standard play couldn't quite replicate.

The famous "ground texture pop-in" when paragliding at high speed was slightly improved. Not eliminated—but improved. Draw distances for grass shadows were also adjusted.
