So after seeing a thread/tutorial on Steam about using SweetFX for The Golf Club I finally got a chance to try it out the other day. Wow, what a difference it makes!

Haven't had a lot of time to play around with all of the filters yet but here are some before/after screenshots using only a single filter.....

Again, these are undoctored screenshots other than some resizing. Colors are much more vibrant in the game and the shadows now have some heft. The only downside I have noticed so far is that it's a bit more difficult to see what you are doing in the designer with this running. You can always save a second preset or toggle it on/off while in the game or designer at any time though.

So has anyone else here been using this? What filters are you running?

I've tried SweetFX on other games before without much success, but I'll have to give it a go with TGC...

Will look into this.

I set this up, but I need to really learn alot more about sweetFX settings -- the example on that Steam thread is just WAY too dark for me...

I'll update once a learn a little more and can come up with some settings that I like...

Prefer the default look.

since its a 3rd party program, i would imagine zero, the game is not rendering the changes, so its not much different than adjusting your monitor's settings either by hand or by software.

Ya b%&es!

sroel908: And as someone who's rangered/scheduled hundreds of courses, trying out a wide range of conditions, I can say with certainty that green speeds do have an impact and definitely matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:48 GMT -5 *

sroel908: Green firmness is more about how the ball interacts with the putting surface when you hit an approach into it. A soft green is more receptive, and will allow more backspin than a firm one. A firm green will have less bite and more rollout. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:00 GMT -5

meunier33: I have seen 135 greens that putt like they are 170. Therefore, we can conclude that green speed does not matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:31:35 GMT -5
