Integrated Intel® UHD 730 Graphics

Links 2003 has graphic display issues using Integrated Intel® UHD 730 Graphics. Mouse trails stay on display screen. I have links installed on two PCs. One PC has latest Win10, the other has Win11. Same problem with both PCs. If I install my NVidia graphics card, that works fine. Are there known gra...

Course conditions for greens

Using the classic swing, selecting course conditions with green speed and hardness as challenging seems ridiculous. Ball roll all over the place if you miss the putt. I do not know of any real golf course that have greens like that.

Re: Classic swing issue

I have that happen to me in the past, and it seems it is usually an issue with the mouse not registering a click. So try a different mouse, one of the best for links (for me anyway) is older corded ones rather than the wireless ones. A corded mouse just seems to be more reliable with detecting your...

Classic swing issue

Using the classic swing, frequently when I click the mouse to stop at the bottom, the bottom marker stays green if I stop exactly on the mark and the ball slices dramatically. Not sure if this is a video card issue, driver issue, or software issue.

Re: Online Direct Connection

Thanks for replying about connecting online with IP address. After having connection issues with Gameranger, I was able to connect online with my IP address and not use Gameranger. It took a few tests, but got it figured out. No longer have to use Gameranger. It took 17 years to get it to work but a...

Re: Online Direct Connection

Using direct connection is far from straightforward I'm afraid. :fear: You need to get into your router's advanced settings to :- 1. Ensure your PC always has the same internal network IP. 2. Set up port forwarding for ports 2300 -2400 / 6073 / 47624 to point to the IP of your PC. How this is achie...

Re: Online Direct Connection

Does Links 2003 online Direct Connection still work? It certainly does. I played a few holes online with a friend just last Friday. Thanks for responding so quickly. I play Links 2003 with another person. We both have the latest identical version. However, neither one of us can make a Direct Connec...

Connection Failed Message trying to join game.

I am running the latest Links 2003 with all updates on a Windows 10 PC with the latest updates. Recently, now when I try to join a Links game using Gameranger, I always get ‘connection failed’. However, if I host a game, I have no problems. The PC I normally use connects via Ethernet cable. I switch...
