Links Corner Forum

I came back to this thread several years later, and I just want to give a big round of applause to all the designers still working today. Of all the courses mentioned in this thread, by my count eight (!) have been released since then (TPC San Antonio, Crooked Stick, NGLA, Black Rock, Coeur d'Alene,...

That sounds amazing, I'd love to know how to do it. I have no experience with QGIS other than walking through the .pdf tutorial last week on green contours that you posted. As far as APCD goes, I had started working on Friar's Head a few years ago, basing large-scale elevations off of Google Earth, ...

Can I clarify: Is Linkster’s DEM method giving you precise contour lines, or is it actually adding the verts for you?

Edit: Nevermind, I read the original post and figured it out. That sounds amazing! Let me see if I can make it work.

In addition to Golf+, I've also tried Golf5, which is similar (and the names are so close I get them confused all the time). The Golf5 course library is very small (only St. Andrews, Royal Troon, Royal Liverpool, and Royal County Down, all DLC as of now) and not greatly varied (it's got Scottish, Ir...

Came across this post in the Designers Corner way too late, and now the link to the tutorial is broken. Does anybody still have a copy of the PDF they could shoot me?

Much appreciated.

I've decided to work on Friar's Head. It was #1 on my list of courses I wanted to see earlier in this thread, so no reason not to try it myself, and I didn't see any mentions of anybody else working on it. Wish me luck.

In case you have not heard, I'll offer a word of advice before you start a new course. When you start there will be an option to select "allow NON-REGULATION fairways". DO NOT check that box. The APCD has a bug in it that will cause problems on a course that cannot be fixed. Good luck, :c...

Alright, this thread inspired me. I've never completed a course design before, but I figured I'd give it the old college try. Hopefully now at this stage in my life I have the patience for an extended project and the persistence to slog through the challenges that will come up. :fcrossed: Hopefully ...
