Looking forward to great so far. I'm looking forward to trying it!

So apparently this course I'm creating has fallen victim to the prepatch file size limit. Cost me about 2 hours tonight unplanting a bunch of things. So now I still have 17,18, residual, and replanting while staying under this unknown limit. I have an idea based on where I was at on the plant meter before the could not save error started happening. Just means getting the last 2 holes themselves done and then add on with saving every 2 minutes now instead of 5. This course designer crashes more on me this edition than TGC1 ever did and the crashes in 1 kept me from ever making another course after only 2 attempts in 1.

My wife and I live on a golf course. We created our golf course in the game and the name of the course is Timberview if any of you guys want to check it out. It's pretty cool and is an autumn course.

That sucks...so you filled up the 'assets' bar up top?

No it wasn't even 2/3rds full but there was apparently a finite amount of space allocated to course files pre patch. This according to Keith from HB. There was one post on HB's forums about the issue and it wasn't resolved. I went back and spent 2 hours unplanting in hopes of being able to at least finish 17& 18 and will replant where absolutely needed to keep the authenticity of the course as much as possible. That shot posted above, all those bushes have been removed and I may only be able to do the outer ring instead of filling that area all in. Even that's 100% accurate but it's the closet thing the game has. Really wish they wouldn't tie assets to themes. Also hate that if you change the color of sand in one bunker, it changes the color of all sand throughout the course. The course above had irrigation areas that are a combo of sand/dirt and should be a dark brown while the actual bunkers use the white sand. So I had to make the irrigation areas with white sand. Local rule also allows for free relief from those irrigation areas but there is no way to do that in game. JNPerfect Golf's course designer is apparently much more user friendly in regards to assets, but as of now it's only on PC and isn't a full release yet even on that platform.

Published 2 more courses.

1. The Links at Alpine Woods

This is pretty much a direct legacy course upload from TGC1. I just moved a few sand traps and deleted a few trees. I'd give it a 6/10 as far as looks and difficulty.

2. The Links at Country Lakes CC

Now this one I spent some time on. It was a legacy course that I overhauled. I widened the fairways, changed all the bunkers and added 2 more tee boxes and 2 more pin locations through out the course. This one gets a 6/10 as well, because while it looks nice, the wider fairways make for an easier challenge.

So check em out.

Courses so far:

Lua Pele Island CC
The Links at Alpine Woods
The Links at Counrty Lakes CC
