Looking forward to seeing more. Make sure you get those bunker lips pretty much flat to the ground, makes all the difference in the this game, also to flatten out the bottoms so that they're not "bath tub" bunkers.

Yeah I haven't even touched bunkers yet. I'm going to delete them and sculpt the land first before putting them back in. I think I made it through hole #5 touching up the fairway and green splines that imported in. I'm amazed at how well the LIDAR captures the green contours, like the biarritz #8, the description says it's tougher than a normal biarritz because a ridge bisects the green perpendicular to the swale, and lo and behold, you pull it up on screen and there's the ridge running right through the center, no sculpting needed. |

I think having everything in that #17 de-saturated color makes things look bland. There's only so much recreation of texture colors/conditions in the game, but I would definitely go with at least some green to make things pop if it were me.

If I may butt in, I think you'd should do an original version with the brown/dry look and a tournament version with the green grass and white sand. Best of both worlds. |

I do want to find some places to put a fictional tee set in to lengthen it some, and change the two <500 yard par 5's into par 4's. I don't think it will be very challenging in this game with how wide the fairways are and how short the course is for these club distances. But since you were interested in seeing some Eden pics:   |

I don't think it will be very challenging in this game with how wide the fairways are and how short the course is for these club distances. But since you were interested in seeing some Eden pics: Looking splendid, mate. Looks spot on. I think setting the lighting for this course will be a tough one, so many great scenic holes to show off with the low sunlight setting, I think the Eden just edges out the others. Another upside to having more than one version is also different lighting settings to show off other holes, I'm also in favour of putting in some fictional tee's as I'd really love to see this course on tour somewhere. I've always thought to myself that the biggest drawback to building Raynor/Macdonald RCR's is that an absolute majority of their courses are still very short and untouched from back in the day. Pretty much rules them out from higher tour play. Still by far the most enjoyable to play, in my opinion as Chicago and Fox Chapel have proven. |

And St Louis! Apologies, Mr Mayo... The Alps at St Louis is one of my favorite holes to play in the game.

Planting has commenced! I took my in game pics first so they aren't quite at the same angles as the real pics, but you get the idea. Hole #1 - Raynor's Start   Hole #2 - Redan   Hole #3 - Plateau   |

It's getting harder and harder to tell the reference photos from the in game shots....

The plateau green looks sexy, seeing the pushed up green on the horizon.

Any chance we can get a look at the double plateau and knoll holes?

Any chance we can get a look at the double plateau and knoll holes? I'll take some pics tonight and do a comparison from the flyover vid you posted. I'm hoping to finish up the planting and have it released by this weekend. I have a 4-5 course backlog that I need to chip away at now that it's so easy to import all the heavy lifting in an hour or two. |
