Hidden gems

Post by cloeks1 »

A couple years ago, after playing links forever, I enabled "profile camera" to see what it was. Today, I don't like playing without it. A few days ago, wanting to try something new, I tried EZ swing and it was more fun than I thought it would be. I still don't understand the short game in EZ swing but I'll figure it out. Another problem I had was, sometimes with the view I had, I couldn't put the aiming marker where I wanted. Today I noticed top view had a little green target icon. This icon changes the center of the top view. Using this fixed the problem I had with the aiming marker.
Links has so many settings and options I'm sure there are lots more neat features I haven't used. Anyone else know of some "Hidden Gems" and would like to share?

I'm not sure how many use this or if it truly "hidden", but if you have a mouse with a center wheel and before hitting your shot, press down on your mouse wheel and it brings an additional menu to pick your clubs. I've always liked that feature..

I like that you can print print scorecards, and other things to a text file and import them to a spreadsheet program.

True confessions? Only by following the Links 2003 Facebook group - Maurizio Tiso - do I now know about the Options > Graphics Settings > Dynamic Camera - Show Smart View. Doesn't work in RTS - something they actually tell you if you have your 'info' setting selected, but works for me in the Two Click World. I haven't crashed a game so far (two played) with it on, so I am assuming it's not a resource hog. And still more to learn...
