As far as I know it should be the same throughout all versions. You could turn on error log debugging and use the acf/save_post hook to error log your $_POSTed values and see where your fields are:

/**
 * Error log processing ACF form saves
 *
 * @param Mixed $post_id
 *
 * @return void
 */
function prefix_acf_save_post( $post_id ) {

	// Don't run on the admin panel, front-end forms only
	if( is_admin() ) {
		return;
	}

	error_log( sprintf( 'Front-end Save Post: %1$s', $post_id ) );
	error_log( print_r( $_POST, 1 ) );

}
add_action( 'acf/save_post', 'prefix_acf_save_post', 9 );
