EXTERNAL: Garmin integration
Being able to upload data directly to Garmin and have metrics (training load, vo2 etc) calculated as per the other online platforms (TrainerRoad, Zwift etc)
504 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release (v0.4.38) now fully supports the automatic synchronisation of rides to Garmin Connect.
If you're already using Garmin and TrainingPeaks together, you'll see a quick prompt on your first login asking you to confirm the new connection to Virtual. All other users can link things up at any time by going to the Profile / Connected Accounts menu and clicking on the big "Connect" button next to the Garmin logo.

HUB: Companion App
I would love to see a companion app developed to have ride manipulation more accessible on the bike.
253 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this week's release (v0.4.18) introduces the first public release of the TrainingPeaks Hub mobile app (available on both the Apple AppStore and Google Play Store).
Simply download and you can then access key functions (such as in-world chat, and viewing / signing up to events) using your phone.
We will continue to expand the function available through the Hub app over the coming weeks and months ahead - including adding a second screen to view your live data, in-world controls (such as junction direction selection) and Bluetooth bridging. Please feel free to raise any of your suggestions for enhancements on UserVoice as we'd love to hear from you, and then build for you, the experiences that committed athletes want and need.

upload to WKO5
Just started with TPV
WKO5 does see the workout, however there is no data and hence not calculated in WKO.
Fields in the workout are saying 'this chart is blank because there is no data in the selected range' - same for all fields.
The 'normal' TP workout there is no issue, so very much related to TPV
Teun Rijke (teunderijke)4 votesMany thanks for letting us know about this, and your support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that we've now resolved the WKO5 sync issue. The fix has been fully deployed live across all our servers and verified as working again.
All new activities going forward should now sync correctly without any additional action required.
For historical activities affected by this issues, you can repair files using tools such as fitfiletools by just loading and immediately re-saving the FIT file before importing into WKO5.
Thank you for your patience with this - if you see any further issues, please do let us know.

UI/UX: Ability to change data screen font size and colour
It would be nice to be able to adjust fonts for data screens. As someone who needs reading glasses when I run TPV on a TV using ATV device, the fonts and font colours used makes for some of the graphics to be unreadable, the ability to change it or have a back ground to read against would be nice so that smaller wording can be read
139 votesMany thanks for your feedback and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
We're delighted to say that the latest release (v0.4.37) significantly increases both the font size and contrast with the background to improve readability throughout.

BUG: Warmup and cooldowns not loading as ramps
Previously, warmups and cooldowns built with a power range loaded in TPV as a gradated ramp from low to high (or high to low for a cooldown), but now they just load as a constant power target.
11 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.36), and is now available on all platforms.

EXTERNAL: Strava screenshots
It will be great to join automatically a screenshot when the activity is downloaded to Strava.
Fun for the rider... but very important to promote TPV! 😉211 votesThank you for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release, out this week, now fully supports Strava screenshots. At the end of a ride you will now see a selection of screenshots (both any you manually took during the ride, plus some automatically taken at notable times such as completing a workout, finishing an event, or bagging an achievement). Simply select which ones you want and click Upload to upload them to Strava.

Fix FIT File Data so that imports to WKO5 Work
Since the end of July, imports of completed workouts from TpV to WKO5 have been failing.
The error from the WKO5 log is:

WORLD: Terrain - Complete stylised graphics rewrite
OK, someone had to say it.
The graphics on TPV were always placeholders. When the resource is in place, they should be re-built from the ground up.
My preference would be to go for a stylised low-polygon approach, which allows for scalable graphics across the wide range of hardware options, with flexibility for cool animations and effects - it's also different to the other platforms out there. Whatever is chosen, it should have a consistent style.
I've attached some examples for reference.
137 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
We hope that you're enjoying the many new graphics updates in TrainingPeaks Virtual that have been recently released. From GeorgeTown to Ice Mountain, with wind farms, cruise ships, cliffs and a wide variety of animals and other things to see on the roadside, there's been a huge change in the graphics since this suggestion was first made.
Whilst there's a lot more work to do, and we intend to continually improve the graphics and so will never be really "done", now feels like a good time to close this wider idea and continue to work on the details over the coming months and years ahead!

Put back the gradual ramp for warm ups and cooldowns
Before the update V0.4.34 TrainingPeaks Virtual handles warm-up intervals as gradual ramp instead of a fixed wattage. This meant that during warm-ups, the wattage started lower and increase over the duration rather than staying within a constant range.
As an older athlete (68+ female) I found this gradual warm-up led to a better session rather than pushing the muscles ahead of the tough blocks.
Could this be made available again perhaps as an option?
5 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.36), and ramps are now working as expected on all platforms.
Note also that you can dynamically add workout blocks at any time simply by pausing the scheduled workout and using the Cruise Control feature to set a target power wattage - this works a bit like a fully configurable ERG mode when free-riding too.

TPV has been updated with a new visual interface? The text and icons are so small to read now I think I need my glasses!
Make it possible to make the text etc larger. I can't actually read it very well anymore!

UI/UX: GPX routes should use actual map for minimap
For custom made routes can we have the option to set the mini map to a real world map like Google maps or similar so we can see where we are. With the virtual routes it can be hard to visualise where you are without the usual real world landmarks. This has been implemented on Biketerra and it makes the riding of custom routes better in my opinion.
15 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has been implemented and works exactly as you suggest - the minimap now shows you the satellite images for any GPX route you ride.

WORLD: Routes - Develop new roads and TPV world
My personal concern is the lack of différent possible world. I am just starting to ride on TPV and I am afraid it could be boring to ride on the same road all the time. I would also appreciate some longer courses with différent slopes.
100 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release (v0.4.27 - which is out today), introduces a brand new experience - GPXplore.- that enables you to ride any route you like simply by uploading a GPX file, exactly as you suggest.
Initially we've opened up testing of GPXplore to everyone with a number of iconic "World Routes", and will rollout the ability to upload your own routes over the course of September. Thank you again for your suggestion, and hope that you enjoy riding whatever routes you want, whenever you want, on TrainingPeaks Virtual.

Make imported gpx files available for all rides, not just events
It's great that I can import gpx files from my outdoor rides into TPV, but I would get far more use from them if they were not confined to use in Events. I hope TPV will soon make them available for both free rides and for workouts. See DC Rainmaker's recent review.
6 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.36), and is now available on all platforms.
From the routes menu, you can now just select any GPXplore route and go free-ride it without needing to set up an event. You can also select a GPXplore route when picking a workout and it all just seamlessly works.

MECHANICS: Training Peaks Virtual does not switch from OFFLINE MODE to ONLINE MODE
If the connection with the server is briefly lost, Training Peaks Virtual attempts to Reconnect. If this fails, the session switches to OFFLINE MODE.
After this, even with normal operation of the Internet connection (tested more than once), the client does not return to ONLINE MODE, remaining in OFFLINE MODE until the end of workout.82 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the TrainingPeaks Virtual's connectivity has been significantly improved over the last few releases. This means that if you experience network difficulties, then your session should now be restored faster and more reliably, including switching back from offline mode to online mode where possible.

MECHANICS: Free ride - ERG cruise control
During a free ride, it should be possible to turn on ERG and lock it to your current power, and then you can shift the ERG value up/down 5w with another key. Functioning much like cruise control on a car.
This has many practical benefits - it means you can execute a flexible erg workout whilst free riding, for example ERG on the flat and then turn it off for a climb, and then back on. It would also allow you to maintain a certain power whilst you are distracted with something else.
116 votesMany thanks everyone for this suggestion, and your support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release out today (v0.4.24) now fully supports Cruise Control mode. Simply select by clicking on the Cruise Control icon on the action bar at the bottom of the screen (or if you're using a keyboard, then the hotkey 'C' will also work) to engage Cruise Control.
Power level can be easily adjusted using the +/- icons / hotkeys (the same as for Virtual Gearing) and will change in 5 Watt steps for single presses, and 10W increments if you repeatedly press quickly.

What's going on?
- player world/regional ratings have been removed
- the power target range of intervals has been removed
- synchronization with wko5 does not work
- the synchronization window with the garmin cannot be closed/removed Everything was fine, but in recent months it's getting worse and worse. Should we expect the return of ratings and previously deleted functions or will it only get worse?

EXTERNAL: Zwift cog+click on Training Peaks Virtual
Integration of Zwift Cog+Click with virtual gears in Training Peaks Virtual, so those users who come from Zwift and have a Cog can use TP Virtual with their actual equipment.
84 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that in the latest release (v0.4.36), TrainingPeaks Virtual is now fully compatible with OpenBikeControl. This app enables full interoperability with a very wide range of 3rd party hardware, which means that you can seamlessly use any devices you want with TrainingPeaks Virtual.
Full direct compatibility with the Zwift Click / Cog is something we will continue to look at, but in the meantime you can now do it indirectly.

New feature: Race against own Ghost
A cool feature could be if one could race against own ghost on e.g. previously completed routes. Earlier in other simulators I have been enjoying this feature. E.g. Bkool. It gives great motivation trying to beat yourself. It is a good alternative to events, if I want to start training right away without waiting for an event to start.
6 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this is already implemented in Time Trial events. Simply set up an event and you'll then be able to race against your top 3 fastest previous best rides on that route (with the ghosts in gold, silver, bronze colours to make them easy to track).
In TrainingPeaks Virtual, these ghosts will exactly replicate your entire Time Trial race - not just your fastest lap. So for example, if you did a 4 lap race it's likely that your lap times are going to be slower than a 1 lap race, and racing your ghosts over 4 laps therefore provides you with a better target than racing it over just your fastest ever single lap.

EVENTS: Import GPX routes of races you want to compeet
I'm a triathlete and I travel alot abrought to compeet in T100 or 70.3 races. It would be nice to import the gpx-files of these races into TP Virtual and ride the course with all elevations. Something like a combination of Best Bike Split and TP Virtual.
I don't care if the TP Virtual landscape would not match the elevation of the gpx-track.98 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.

Balance
Just wondering if it would technically be possible to see the left/right balance metric transmitted by a Tacx neo smart trainer in TP virtual. Now that TP is part of the Garmin group that already has Tacx in its portfolio, perhaps features from Tacx smarttrainers that up till now are only visible in the Tacx app, could become available in TP virtual as well. Thanks.
0 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this is already fully implemented. If you pair any device as a powermeter, then if it transmits Left/Right data, then it will be automatically displayed in the secondary display at the top of the screen.
