OH MAN!!!!!

This is going to be amazing

chadgolf did more to update the designer than the whole HB team

[linkslover]

I would say HB should employ chadgolf but I'm sure they'd find some way to @!$# it up.

[chadgolf]

Let's be nicer to HB, at least in this section. I feel like they've done well for their resources and they scooped the PGA license, which I like, even if it's limited for now.

The tools are released completely open-source and royalty free in the hope that HB could adapt parts of it if they so choose.

Haven’t been on in a couple weeks but as soon as I saw this, I hit that login button to post... this looks super interesting for someone like me who has always wanted to make an RCR but simply didn’t have the time... can’t wait to check this out!

chadgolf I understand this wasn't intended for console use but i needed to try.

I was able to pull a course file from the PS4, get it on a USB stick and follow the tutorial.

Everything seemed to go ok except at the end, after Import Terrain, and Select and Import the Heightmap and import into course. I get an error message that it cannot locate the course file.

And this probably where it gets a little sticky for PS4 people. I noticed the filename for the course I pulled from the PS4 is "course@004" - it does not have an extension so I'm not sure the TGC Tools software is able to identify the PS4 file as legit.

Any ideas?

I see the twitch video tutorial in the OP is no longer working. I was looking to send it to someone who is just getting started.

Anyone know if an alternative video is available somewhere, like youtube or something?

This one is working fine for me.
