Re: In game crash

Glad that the suggestion worked for you Sage!

St. Andrews Golf Club looked like it had a lot of character when I did the DEM import. Looking forward to seeing it completed!

Re: In game crash

Is that course from a DEM? I don't recognize it but looks fun! :clapping:

If it is from a DEM it likely has too many verts in the reflective water. The water area internal verts need to be substantially simplified and flattened. I ran into a likely similar issue with Augusta.

Re: LACC

The USGA US Open twitter feed has the pin positions. I downloaded them if you want a copy. That first tee on the practice green with the flowers in front just doesn't look right to me. I would have expected the USGA to at least move the flowers for the week but maybe they didn't have permission. :la...

Re: LACC

Try this for hole 11: Define the hole to be about 260-270 yards. "center of tee" will be short of the desired back tee but "center of green" should be placed properly to get the proper scorecard yardage. Plant the tees and pin positions. This all needs to be done in a single APCD...

Re: Wasteland Texture...

Texture looks great Danny! It is soooo difficult to get a texture that tiles decently and both of your textures look great! I would add in some more brown to the colour but that depends on what you will be 2D planting on the texture. Off topic but I will ask it here, are you working on Shadow Creek ...

Re: Augusta National 2023

Hi nicodaft! That is not how most people play the 11th, that must have been a mishit! :rofl: I can move the pines in closer to the 18th tee corridor. Not many people ask to make a course harder but I am looking for this kind of feedback to help make Augusta as real as possible. As for the fringe run...

Re: Coming soon

Wow this is a nice surprise! I didn't think we would get to play along on the new Oak Hill for this year's PGA Championship! A hi-res DEM for the Oak Hill restoration is a no-go. The area was LIDAR surveyed in 2018 and the USGS finally released the DEM back in March, but it doesn't capture the resto...

Re: Augusta National 2023

I was referring to the shadows created when the surface is at an angle. The transition between a vertical face and horizontal face when they are connected messes with the shadows of the terrain. Have a look at the bottom of the bridges. AN2023.png AN2023v2.png The course does look better with the de...
