I may or may not take on in the future, a fictional Detroit GC renovation.
As a big fan of Raynor Farms I absolutley await a fictional Detroit GC.

"Just went around HB's Detroit Golf Club. I have to say, for what the course is, they did a good job with it, and obviously better given the resources. There's slightly more nuance to the greens than I had with the Lidar data, and they added a nice touch with the Detroit skyline way in the distance. The clubhouse details and houses around the course are also better, no news there."
Glad I saw this thread! While I knew about the new pay-for-gear Chubhouse Pass, I had no idea that an in-house version of Detroit Golf Club was also released!

The HB version was apparently released yesterday...I haven't played yet, but I know it's the Rocket Classic version, which is a mix of holes from the North and South courses (mostly the North though). It's under the name "Detroit Golf Club". According to the clv, it's not too different from his, but it does have a few perks, like the downtown Detroit skyline (just like the Atlanta skyline in East Lake).

Yeah the tournament version, which is HB's Detroit Golf Club and my Detroit Backboard Classic, is 17 holes from the North and 1 from the South. The first hole on the North is eliminated in the tournament course, and you tee off from what is normally the North 8th, then play the North 9th, then play the South 1st. The North 2nd becomes the tournament 4th, and a new tee that actually plays across the green of the North 1st makes it a much longer par 5. From there you finish playing the rest of the holes on the North front 9, and the back 9 is exactly the same as the North back 9.
Try keeping all of that straight, lol.

Just published "Shoreacres (LiDAR)'. Mostly a straight port, only added some crowds.
Just wanted to say, every time I play Shoreacres, I love it more. What a fantastic course, and you've done really great work on this one, sir. Cheers.

Repurposing this thread. I'll keep a running list of the courses I've ported over. Here's the estimated order and status:
RCRs
1. St. Andrews (Regular version is The Auld Grey Toon, Tournament version is Her Majesty's Open at TOC, and the reverse routing is The Reverse Old Course. The reverse course has been censored, so if you search "The Reverse" you can find it, it will just say "The Reverse ********") 2. Firethorn/Augusta (Firethorn has been removed from the game, but is still playable from Favorites or Friends Played lists. A Course Has No Name is the exact same course. The par 3 course is available as Wednesday Par 3 Contest)
3. Chambers Bay (Chambers Bay and Chambers Bay (Tour)) T4. Pinehurst No. 2 (Pinehurst No. 2 TGC19. Revamped version coming some time down the line.) T4. Oakmont (Oakmont Country Club and Oakmont CC (Tour)) 6. Merion (Merion East and Merion East (Tour)) 7. Lahinch (Lahinch and Lahinch (2019 Irish Open)) 8. Erin Hills (Erin Hills and Erin Hills (Tour)) 9. Crystal Downs (Crystal Downs (LiDAR)) 10. Shoreacres (Shoreacres (LiDAR)) T11. Detroit GC (Detroit Golf Club (South Course), Detroit Golf Club (North Course), and Detroit Backboard Classic)
Fictional courses: 1. Old MacArthur Dunes (Published)
Bump. For those of us looking for the title of the course on tour this week…

theclv24 , any plans to bring Erin Hills across to 2K23 ?? It's on the Maybe list. I haven't looked at it yet to see what shape it's in, and I probably won't be in any position to do so in the next month, at least. Someday I would love to explore getting the lidar data, though, and putting in the Tom Doak routing to see what that would have looked like.
