Bit of a rollercoaster ride, pretty lacklustre front 9 and watching the leaderboard and watching Bova's score getting better each hole I thought around par would be where I'd end up. As bad as the front 9 putting was it was very good on the back 9 with a huge breaking right to left 29 foot birdie putt on 17 the highlight. Would of been playing here long ago if I didn't waste so much pointless time on TST just to see it go back to easy swing difficulty again after about 12 tournaments.Anyway this is sim and SIM means zero aiming markers for me. I can set this up on PS if you want Bova, not sure if you'll get anyone but I have an empty society as The Legend Tour has finished and kinda joined up with TAN.

Hey Bova I've set up a couple of events on xbox . So I'll give it a go again don't know about anybody else on xbox don't know whether they can handle the extreme realism 🤣🤣 Cheers Neil... we can only hope that the those total nutters will come and join the fun. Neil you are one tough guy. Hate to run into you in a dark alley. Saw this today and will try to play some.

The tees and conditions for all Zone 2 courses can be found in that link in the Opening Post. Today I completed setting up Zone 3 and also posted that link in the OP. Zone 4 is being worked on at the moment and I hope to complete it and add it by the end of January. There are some well known courses that are on the visit lists that people will want to try at this wacky set up. No pressure if it is too much Paul, but hopefully Neil ( longpole) will keep doing Xbox and more dip their toe on PC we could match TAN with membership. Dave

I love to follow but will turn it off when playing here. At least I won't need to see the ball fly in a lake or creek.

It's actually fun with follow cam off. Rd 1 was fairly easy conditions and I shot -8. Bova KianIs it ok to press up on D pad when putting? I did this twice out of habit. Or can I use L or R on d pad to get a different angle when putting?

Dave I will set up on the PS for next tournament. Do you want to keep stuff like time of day/ wind speed uniform for each platform or random?. Different lighting for example can effect how we read putts.

Or can I use L or R on d pad to get a different angle when putting? it's great that your giving it a go Todd , I sometimes push up like u said by habit think sometimes pressing right on dpad looks great like watching your shot on the telly . Be interesting to hear bovas thought on it , I'll carry on regardless as I love playing legend now that we have a controller that plays the game correctly as intended.Also the set up is straight forward on the opening page , hopefully cross platform society's in new game will make this a lot easier .

Different lighting for example can effect how we read putts. I would have thought keeping TOD/Wind uniform for each platform would be handy for a comparison of the leaderboards at the end of each tournament and if you all feel that this could develop into a cross-platform challenge. The selections you see in the conditions spreadsheet have been selecting by using an RNG and wind direction/TOD are the only ones that can appear more than once in a tournament. Eveyrthing else has the four main selections appearing once in the tournament -- Default/Low(Soft)/Medium(Moderate)/High(Fast/Firm). I have kept away from very soft/slow and very high/firm as I didn't want to be a complete whacky nutcase.

Or can I use L or R on d pad to get a different angle when putting? Don't know about controller buttons Todd, I'm a mouser. However I decided when Paul (hammers1man) asked months ago that the green cameras were okay on the basis that IRL you would wander round the green looking at your angles for the slope and break, even though I don't use them myself. With the follow camera I wanted to be similar to what USE originally invisioned and that was what you would see when you actually played on the golf course, though I know you can overide it once your shot is away if you know which button or keyboard icon to hit to see at least part of your shot with follow cam. In the end the set up for Legend USX has been to end up with the maximum multiplier 2.50 in the game, thereby meaning the hardest difficulty with as near as possible totally random playing conditions. I am nuts or just NUTS!!!!

hammers1man Hey Paul, I think the front tees and nice weather for Round 3 at Kauri Cliffs was a little too friendly to me and I even rimmed three more possible birdies.

What I like about the set up also is that we're playing off all different tees so it's almost like were playing a different course every Rd . So there's lots to think about especially when u wanna risk the lots of short par 4s . As we're playing 2.50 xp surely it doesn't really matter about follow cam at the end of the day it's about trying to grab a few more to play . Honestly if u haven't tried it yet on your approach shots press right dpad it's like watching your shot on the telly . Quite like it .

I can see the desire to play just fixed cam as watching the roll out can be an aid and it is no harm to be that little bit different than TAN. Tbh I enjoy playing both ways but playing with a turn based ghost is not ideal with just a fixed camera so I play Legend USX solo and TAN with one or two ghosts. I do think we should be playing the exact same playing conditions on each platform though so we are all playing the same setups. Bova Kian if you go into the tournament that haven't started you can go into edit any tournament that hasn't started and take a screenshot of your settings, PM it to Neil and myself so we can replicate them on PS and XBox.
