Here are the fixes in the auto-update:


Fix Dirty Disc Error seen after playing on-line then immediately playing career mode and completing a tournament event.

Fix to allow non-autoupdated Links 2004 to play with autoupdated Links 2004 via System-Link. While a very small customer scenario, it can come up.

Fix career skills exploit when turning off Xbox at rewards screen. Note: people who have used this exploit will have their skill points gained through this exploit removed from their point list. Any legit money earned is returned to the players bank account to respend. We debated hard on how to solve this issue. I think we have a fair solution.

Fix Live! and XSN Sports Pin Positions not being identical for all players. Now in all rounds, whether Solo played, or together, everyone will have the same exact pin locations

Fix Live! and XSN Sports not being placed at the correct tees for your rounds in certain cases. This was a rare case, only on certain courses with specific tee settings.

Fix to allow balls to be hit out of rocks or trees if they come to rest inside of one. We turned off collisions inside of rocks and trees. This should make it much more difficult to end up in one (most common case was a ball rolling under the lip of a rock that was not planted fully into the terrain) and in the cases a person is in one, they can hit out instead of having it bounce around.

Fix Game Freeze if system date has changed between log off then log onto Live!

Fix Premium Content Download of Kapalua. 5 holes, including the 18th were not using Championship tees. Now on the 18th hole you are &gt;600 yards away from the tee (our computation is using straight line, so it reads 601yds I believe).

Fix Live! leaderboard stats being cleared or corrupted during heavy load.

Fix XSN Sports data package posting issues during heavy load.

can't believe I forgot to add this one when I typed all the fixes above.... Fix AI Gimme shot so now the ball will never get stuck floating above the hole, with the AI golfer taking putt after putt after putt until it hits 12.


This one is for EvanXE and TRUCK!!!! Added rumble to controller when users join the lobby when hosting a Live! game. Now if you create a game, and are waiting for people to join, you can switch your TV to the news and when someone joins, your controller will rumble. You can then switch back from the news to start the game. Controller will also rumble in the lobby if the host leaves and host-duties migrate to another Xbox.

it's actually not that simple. you need an xbox to get the patch but you hate MS. you need links to need the patch but you hate Ms. the way you talk about MS one would wonder if you have the game at all and therefore wonder why you care what the patch does.

Re: Links patch is AVAILABLE!!

Wow, really, you need an Xbox to get the patch?
and wait, you also need the game?
Tell me more, what would I do with this... xbox.

But really now, I dont care to have a passport account, this doesnt mean I hate MS. Just dont want there passport.

So lets move on, and just get along.

Because im not down with microsoft and .net passport.

which leads me to believe you're "not down with microsoft".

and the reason all of this is relevant (and probably why nobody else is responding) is b/c you can't get on xsn without a passport account AND having a passport account doesn't tell you anything about any fixes. so your post made little sense. basically you want nothing to do with xsn and want to know about fixes that you probably will never notice anyway.

Re: Links patch is AVAILABLE!!

Having xsn and an xbox and logging into the network is much diffrent then sitting on my computer and logging into microsoft website fourm and giving MS the ability to logging into my computer with passport.
And does it make a diffrence if I dont have a passport account, and XSN account, Links 2004, or an Xbox, but still want to know what they fixed? Maybe I just want to know.

Also

Lets say they put out a copy of a mag. They even call it Xbox Offical mag. They put in this CD that has all kinds of stuff on it. Movies, demos, extra dl stuff, even patch stuff. who knows. If I was going to put that in my xbox would I need xsn, would I need the internet, would I need Win XP, would I need passport. would I need two controllers?

The point is, I asked a question. All someone had to do was anwser it. Say its this etc.. and some nice person did "BJ77LT".
There was no need for someone like you to come along and start pestering me about "hateing MS, blah blah blah,"

We all come to this board to talk about what we like and dont like about games and such. To just share in a common interest, not to bash eachother, or hound someone.

So please let it go, move on. And enjoy this board for what it is, and be thankful that you have such a place to chat.

I have nothing more to say.
