Can this happen? I have a rainman kind of guy that will complete one perfect hole in his lifetime. But would love to augment my rudimentary courses.
however he is PC with Xbox controller and I am PS4

Pretty certain it's impossible, certainly is on a PS4 with no modifications.

You can only share courses on PC with other PC players. There's no way to get course files on or off PS4/Xbox.

So If you design and publish from a PC, you can't see or play it on a PS4 ?

They're saying you can't share in progress course files from PC to the consoles, only from PC to PC. Its all about how files are saved.

To expand on this, publishing on any machine puts the course in HB's completed courses database, which is crossplatform. There's some issue that could be either from technical limitations or unwillingness to share profile data across platforms, causing all courses published on other machines to have an anonymous publisher. For PC, courses that are still in the unpublished section of the course designer tab in the menu are saved unencrypted within the game files, allowing people to move it from computer to computer and open it in any three of the TGC games so long as they're saved in the right spot. This doesn't work for consoles as files for PS4 are heavily encrypted and, as far as I know, files for Xbox are still unknown, at least in this community.

Thanks appreciate the info. I was thinking of getting back into doing some courses and wondered whether it was better to do them on PS4 or PC. Its just there so easier to see with my older eyes on the PS4 and TV than I thought it would be on a PC monitor.
