First Total Pro Golf Course Designer screen released

[Gary Gorski]

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know that we finished the website for Wolverine Studios and it is now updated with the first screenshot from the TPGCD. There's some good discussion going on in the forums about the course designer so if you have a minute stop by and check out the brand new site and the screenshot.

Is this Wolverine Studios big scoop before E3? :)

Looks good, but we'll have to wait for the meat and potatoes obviously.

Um, Wolverine Studios? Did I miss something here? GDS?

Gary, do you have a date of release for the Course Designer?????

[Gary Gorski]

Its in beta testing right now - I don't want to throw an exact date out there just yet but it should be this month. I'll get some more screens up in the next week or so to show what it will look like to design some holes but there's a few things we're still changing in those areas so I didn't want to post screens of those yet.

That looks like a left-handed golf club. You might want to get that fixed. ;)

[Groundhog]

I see... best of luck with Wolverine studios, Gary. Your golf game has my interest, for sure.

Awesome website design, good work from Gary and Paul. Double congrats to Paul for the game interface design.

[Gary Gorski]

Thanks guys - Im looking forward to getting this out the door so the community can have at it

[moriarty]

Gary,

In the course desinger can you pick different types of rough? E.g. penalizing US open type rough, or less adverse Augusta type rough?

[Gary Gorski]

yeah there are three rough settings - light, medium and heavy and each will act differently. You can't set one heavy rough to be different than another heavy rough but the heavy rough will be like US Open type rough

[Anthony]

best of luck to you Gary. i've got my eye on your series of products, keep the news/updates frequent and plentiful.

[Gary Gorski]

Thanks HA - I plan on keeping new content on the front page of the site so make sure you check it out every so often

[Dutch]

I'm really looking forward to this one. A great untapped market that should get some international interest if it's done well.

[Gary Gorski]

bump for some news on the release of the course designer - check the front page of the site :)

Sweet! So.. how soon after release of the course designer will someone have a passable Augusta? Pebble Beach? :D

Good idea releasing the course designer. Whet a few appetites and ensure that there is a variety of courses out there for use when the game comes out.
