iOS 8.2 broke my app

    Just a little heads-up. My app was written in Unity 4.5 (I believe) using the old OnGUI and Dynamic Text. I got a troubling email this morning that no text is being displayed after they updated to 8.2. I updated my iPads and can confirm that this is the case.

    Just a guess at the cause, this may be happening because I used the default arial font with is probably mapped to a system font that no longer exists on iOS.

    Someone from Unity, can you please give us exact directions to fix this font issue, without upgrading to a higher version of Unity? Like @@F.Salka posted, is modifying that all that needs to be done, or is there another spot as well?

    Thanks! Hopefully I can get a quick response so I can get an update out, starting to get a lot of emails on this.

    Yeah, for me, I just upgraded the app to 4.6 and submitted it to apple. First, it's just a pain, it took me a full day to upgrade build and submit to apple. But more importantly, since Apple's review takes time, I have an app out in the world right now that is broken. I have 1000's of active users and I'm sure I'm losing them with every minute that the upgrade is not available.

    There are so many things wrong with the regimented Apple review process (for these types of things).. Have you used up you expedited review this year?

    The App store is so not developer friendly.

    Yeah, it looks like I'm just going to have to download and install 4.6. It sounds like it can't be fixed just in Xcode files.

    And now for the 5 year Apple update process, where thousands of more people will not be able to play the game correctly!!! GRRR
