How can I even begin to describe my screw up? Okay, let me start at the beginning:
So now I have two options:
Option #2 probably makes the most sense but my course is spread out and the whole area is supposed to be heavily forested. Do I need to add thousands of trees by hand? (Auto-generated terrain is essentially free, right?) The other problem with option 2 is that deleting those hundreds of removal brushes is going to take me hours and hours of work.
QUESTIONS
Thanks for any suggestions or advice!
- To start my new course I auto-generated all trees, bushes, grass, and water.
- Last night I added light rough to my fairways, but the editor auto-generated grass and bushes in the light rough.
- I spent hours adding HUNDREDS of removal brushes to get rid of the grass and bushes.
- Started on the back nine tonight and decided to turn off the automatic grass and bush generation. So when I add light rough it won't put anything in it! I'm a genius!
- Saved my course
- Realized that I had removed ALL auto-generated grass and bushes from my entire course.
- Turned the auto-generation back on but everything is in a different place... and the grass and bushes are all over my light rough again. :-(
So now I have two options:
- I can go through and remove all the grass and bushes again (adding hundreds MORE removal brushes)
- I can leave the grass and bush generation off and add it manually
Option #2 probably makes the most sense but my course is spread out and the whole area is supposed to be heavily forested. Do I need to add thousands of trees by hand? (Auto-generated terrain is essentially free, right?) The other problem with option 2 is that deleting those hundreds of removal brushes is going to take me hours and hours of work.
QUESTIONS
- Do the removal brushes count towards the object placement limit?
- Is there an easy/fast way to get rid of a ton of removal brushes? (Even if they don't count towards the placement limit, all the glowy yellow circles make it hard to work on my course. I'd like to remove them all.)
- Regarding #2, I can't figure out how to multi-select a removal bush and use the area select and area delete options. I get a red circle, but it doesn't seem to do anything...
- I haven't had any crashes or file corruption issues... so I haven't backed up my course saves. Is there any kind of versioning? Can I get any access to my save from two nights ago?
Thanks for any suggestions or advice!
