Danny, is this what your APCD course directories look like........A separate directory for each unique course.

Thanks

Sage....... :smile:
Seeing Sage's directory of 150+ courses he is working on, I thought this might be an appropriate time to ask: Is anyone working on Dorado Beach East, Sea Island, Mauna Kea, or Valderrama? These 4 "orphaned" courses I have long since wanted to see brought up to date. I am currently working Dorado Beach East (I can only endure working one course at a time) and am entertaining thoughts of doing the other three if no one else has them in the works.

To Sage: do you have a separate installation of the APCD for each of your courses you're working on?

Personally I would love to see new versions of all those courses, but I thought I should mention two things about Valderrama.
1. This may not be new info to you, but there is a 2008 beta version of Valderrama made by John Aherne. It is not officially released on Links Corner but kind members tend to share it around if someone asks.
2. I sent a pm to what seemed to be John Aherne a few months ago asking a couple things, one of them was if he would be ok with me making edits to and in a fashion try to "complete" his beta version of Valderrama. He has not returned to LC and hasnt seen the pm since, but I thought Id mention it to you at least.

As I said, I would love to see new versions of those courses, especially Valderrama, so Im NOT trying to say you shouldnt go for it. Im merely wishing to keep you informed. There seems a reasonable chance he will never see it or reply. If he ever replies and allows me to work on it I will let the forum know. I can pm you if he replies either way.
Finished Courses - Main: Amedal (fictional), Nine Bridges (real)
Other: Austin, Sheshan, Kauri Cliffs, Le Golf Nat. Updates: Whirlpool, Royal Lytham, Royal St George's, Chicago, Chambers Bay, Munchen Nord E
Working on: 2 fictional courses + a couple things...

Thanks for info Adelade, let me know if he replies to you. I was actually going to move on to Sea Island and then Mauna Kea after Dorado.

Wakonda Club Pictures - 1 thru 6

Post by Danny D »

Hi group...

Just about have the pins set. Only a few holes left. It's very tedious and time consuming to select good pin positions. shouldn't be much longer.

In the meantime, I thought I would post a few photos. I have 11. Since we can only post 6 photos per posting, I'll have to post them in 2 parts.
Hope you enjoy...
