Formby Golf Club




Why? I just kinda dig the look of the place. :-) seems like my wheelhouse and could be fun. Thoughts?

For a minute I was about to type "Dang reeb you made that look like a real photo" then realized "This is a real photo"

But now questioning if I was right at either of those conclusions

That looks like a cool course to create..... Go get it

[reebdoog]

I e got the data but need to map it. There’s two tracks so trying to map one and leave the other. Images aren’t great but good enough I think

Formby is a great course and so is Formby Ladies which is the course inside of it. I hope you can recreate the heather and gorse sufficiently. It's only about 45 minutes from where I live

Will be interested to see how this goes. Depending on the initial import course file size, the designer lag time while building/editing everything else can be significant. Hopefully that's no the case here though!

[reebdoog]

Lag is a problem. I can say that already!

Not going to lie, seems like a small thing every time you apply a change, but that sh!t adds up.

[chadgolf]

Have you guys tried separating the terrain and the features and planting in flat mode? Is that a useful way to help reduce the lag for all but the final touches/terrain touches?

Check out the thread with instructions on how to reduce lag here:

Reeb,
To help you out I've started mapping the course out in OSM although if you would rather do it yourself then just let me know.

I am planning to get into it later today too but go ahead buddy. I imported the lidar but I’m not sure I have it right so putting the map on it will help.

Oh yes. I've heard lots of good things about Formby and always wanted to play it but never been able to as yet.

I'm looking at some pics and google maps too so I will be modifying things a little here and there so don't freak out.

There will be no freaking out here so nothing to worry about on that front . I've played the course numerous times and it's less than an hour from me so if you need any help or photos getting or anything like that then just let me know and I'll be more than happy to help out.

Gotcha. If you could take a peek at google maps too...it’s not easy to find the latest data as there are bunkers and fairway that seem to be different.
