My Whoosh! the new Zwift 2.0?

Not sure if i am the last to know this, but if you want to run MyWhoosh and TrainerRoad together on a single screen as many do for Zwift, then ALT + Enter puts MyWhoosh into Windowed mode on a PC. There is no setting to do this automatically as with Zwift.

That’s one obstacle out of the way!

Won’t run on my Windows 10 i7 laptop, to be fair it’s probably not up to spec but the laptop runs Zwift just fine.
When I say won’t run, I mean can’t launch it, even after fixing he DLL error shown above. Forget the exact error message right now.
My OnePlus Nord runs the app and pairs to my Assioma pedals, but once I start a ride they are lost, again all good with Zwift.

It runs reaaaly slow on my i7 laptop from 2019. The hardware requirements for Windows are really high. I like it as a distraction for some TR workouts. I don’t like that there are so many bots…

Try Alt+Enter to switch between windows and full screen mode.

Works fine on my 2015 Dell XPS i7-8700 desktop with 1050 Ti. Although the roads are empty going in the same direction after the recent update so my dates are limited. Required minimum calls for higher specs GPU. It’s not a CPU bounded as far as I can tell. What do have for GPU?

How do you exit the program when in a full window?

You can log out but I haven’t found an exit of program except by returning to windows mode and click the “x”.

I was using task manager to kill it. Then I started doing what you do.

If i logout as per @jkc via the Menu , it either exits the program and loads a crash report for the Unreal Game Engine, or it just crashes and loads the error report. I’m not 100% sure which, but it does exit the program!

This is a bug they are aware of

Was an avid zwift user but for me none of these other platforms allows me to go to a VO2 max interval outside.

Has anyone successfully done a same day Training Peaks workout on this platform? I’ve tried twice and on the MyWhoosh calendar it shows up as a workout the day before, thus unable to do it.

Why do you think this is? find it ‘easier’ to push harder outside?

I just looked to download the Android app. At 1.8Gb it seems and awfully big app. Is this correct?

As mentioned, it is only a laptop. The GPU is a not so powerful Radeon RX550(mobile). I know that my GPU is too weak for the minimum reqs, but I think for such a game the reqs are quite high. Swoosh runs on the UE4 engine; I was thinking this UE4 is quite efficient. But e.g Zwift runs a lot better even if the Graphics Engine is proprietary and there maybe less efficient…

Perhaps I’m not giving the UAE a fair chance, but it still seems to have a long way to go.

Just tested it for you. The Training Peaks workout came through on the correct date for me (New Zealand time).

Just a thought, there is a bug at the moment (for some people or all, i don’t know) where if you have your country correct in the MyWhoosh Windows App, it is incorrect when you login to their website. Mine is correct on the website, and wrong in the App. Maybe yours is around the other way and that is somehow affecting it, though it sounds pretty unlikely!

Agreed and it’s odd that its so demanding considering there are mobile options.

Most definitely. I find that any threshold or VO2 max workout has me in and out of the saddle indoors with a feedback of very hard or occasionally all out. Outside, I don’t get out of the saddle at all and its hard normally, or very hard on occasion.

I just don’t feel the benefit as much indoors, I’m there struggling away thinking this can’t be good for form riding like this, and if I ride like this outside ill just get dropped surely.

I wonder does Trainer Road take whether you’re inside or outside into consideration when it looks at your feedback.

I guess Trainer Road is better at trying to train me into how best to ride faster outdoors than the others.

If I don’t have TR loaded (because my devices won’t both pickup my trainer and my tablet can barely run MyWhoosh let alone that and something else) can I set MyWhoosh to a resistance level, as opposed to matching the gradient of the road etc?

I’m not sure about that, and I can’t check for 3 weeks sorry
