was just reading over in the clubhouse, about the different systems, and wondered, what does everyone play on here?
I know larry has switched over to PS4, I was reading that. Am I a minority, as a PC user now?
no biggie, just wondering.
R4 of last week, I did great, as I posted, hung right with you guys. But I had no tempo issues, was a good day.
Yesterday, I did pretty bad. But... the tempo monster reared its head in an ugly way. I was getting VS's probably every third or so hole, and simply couldn't scramble my way out of it this time.
And I thought to myself... here is the difference... When I don't have tempo issues, and the tempo is at least consistent, then I pretty much hung right with everyone else. But throw in the inconsistency of not knowing what tempo the game is going to want... and I do awful. I don't mind at all manning up and accepting that I'm not a great player. I can take making a mistake, and KNOWING I made the mistake and what I did. What gets me is when I play bad, due to not being able to hit tempo, because I don't KNOW what tempo to hit. if that makes sense.

Just curious what framerates do get and do you have vsync on ?.

Oh no, the “what system” infection found it’s way over here...
;-)
I Play on PC with a DS4 - locked at 60fps. My results are pretty realistic with that set up.

Larry still plays PC here Yep, I don't play ultra sim for the scoring, it's for the experience, and experience-wise I much, much prefer playing with PC visuals! For PGA, getting a PS4 was basically a shot in the arm to keep me playing on the tours as I've been inches away from quitting for a while now. Ultra sim is an entirely different beast, I'll keep playing that no matter how much the main tours piss me off Edit: case in point, just played my first 2 USE rounds, sitting at -1 and felt like I played brilliantly. Couple of monster putts, including one 45.8ft downhill 15 cups left bad boy, hammers1man if you get a chance to play my ghost, check out that putt on hole 2 in round 1, one of the best USE putts I've ever made

I honestly have no idea. LOL. I remember reading a post and I tried to turn on framerates one time, to see, and the number that I expected to be 40 or 60 or something said 800 or so. So I figured I had something wrong. I don't know without looking if vsync is on or off. Its whatever it defaulted to, I haven't changed it. I use a GTX 1070, with a Dell ultrawide monitor. I really like the nice graphics. LOL
And I was by no means trying to complain or infect us over here! I was just reading/posting in that other thread, and it got me wondering. It is very cool knowing you guys are sticking with it though, and over here its more about the experience.

Holed a beauty for a birdie 3 IRL on Saturday. 20 foot downhill all the way that dropped in the hole at a lovely pace😁. I get that same fist pumping feeling when holing a long USE putt😀🤜. Ultra Sim really captures that great feeling from pulling off that extra special shot with the0 added bonus of being able to watch the replay again and again 😊

I play on an Asus Ultrawide also 3440x2560 with a GTX 1080.This game can be quite taxing at that resolution I've had drops to 38 fps on full settings on some courses. Vsync causes latency so turning that off can help, my Asus is Gsync (variable refresh rate) so the game plays smooth no stuttering or bad frame drops. Steam has a built-in fps counter if you bring up the game overlay. If you find that you a getting low framerates, change fog shadow quality and fog quality down first in the advanced graphic options. You'll get a huge framerate boost without any visual loss that I can notice. Razer Cortex game booster is a great free program I really recommend it. It launches automatically when you start up a game.

hammers1man I figured out how to get the steam fps overlay on, and it ran 60fps pretty much 98% of the time I was playing. Occasionally would drop to 55, but then would go right back up in a half second.
BUT, also tonight, tempo seemed perfectly fine. The S's., F's. and the very few VS and VF's I had, I'm pretty sure were me.
I played much better tonight, my score was right in line where I thought it should be.
I'll leave that fps meter running and see if it changes on a night when tempo is bad.

Valhalla greens are diabolical to be fair, forgot how bad they were until I played my rounds, felt lucky with any putt I made over 8ft. Would be interesting to see others' 3-putt stats after this particular event, I reckon they'll be pretty beefy!
