PGA Tour 2K23 $8.99 on Steam

Just a PSA that PGA Tour 2K23 is on sale for $8.99 on Steam, probably as low as it's ever been. I took the plunge and bought it today; I usually wait till the competitors to Links get under fifteen bucks, laugh.

Re: Microsoft Update 24H2

Today's patch Tuesday seems to have cleared up my issue with an AMD Radeon dedicated card not being able to play fullscreen.
Build is now at 24H2 26100.2314

Re: Microsoft Update 24H2

You may also want to avail yourself of the Feedback Hub app in Windows 11. Choose to let it record an attempted Links 2003 launch and submit so they can diagnose it.

Re: Microsoft Update 24H2

Yes, I'm having to play in windowed mode only after the 24H2 update. This is the first time something like this has happened w/ a dedicated AMD Radeon card. Hopefully this gets sorted. For the AMD card if you launch in fullscreen it will blink and go black in a series and never allow you control of ...

Re: Microsoft Update 24H2

Have you tried windowed mode if you were previously playing full-screen? I'm seeing some weird stuff in fullscreen after 24h2 w/ a full Radeon card.

You can alter it in regedit:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Links 2003\DisplaySettings
windowed 1

Re: links 2003 how to use slope gauge

If the arrow is up, you're on an upslope and a neutral shot would be shorter. If arrow is down, you're on a downslope and you could hit it longer or skull it in real life, laugh. Left and right arrow determines whether you should aim the opposite way to compensate for the slope.

Re: Newly Renovated Colonial pics! looks amazing

Saw your post Eric and re-visited your Colonial 2020 and enjoyed the round again. Thanks! :)
Out of curiosity is it a 1024x1024 texture course? I saw the database indicating it was but saw some softness in some of the views up close. Cheers -

Re: Is EA getting things right? - Links 2k3 Threat Alert !

My question is in regards to the EA Sports PGA Tour game for PC which I purchased and downloaded yesterday. I played it for the first time using what is apparently the default controller device, the keyboard, but I can't find anywhere in the game menu that allows a player to use a mouse instead of ...

Re: Is EA getting things right? - Links 2k3 Threat Alert !

I'm still experimenting w/ the new EA game for $10. Note there is no Links 2k3 style real time swing via mouse. They force the need for an xbox style controller with its analog sticks for the swing or you can use of the old three click method which I've been trying. I used to use that method before ...

Re: Is EA getting things right? - Links 2k3 Threat Alert !

And amusingly enough a few days after my post, it's gone on sale from 70 to 10 bucks, laugh. I think I'll pick it up and take a look.
