Re: Occasional blue water

I would be happy to post a screen shot. Could you remind me of the key sequence in Links 2003 to capture a screen please ?

Thanks :smile:

Re: Occasional blue water

Thanks but my graphics settings for Links are on the max detail. Often water shows fine but sometimes I am getting a featurless (no reflections etc) sky blue fill. It's my fault for playing with the graphics settings I guess but the jagged edges of distant bunkers etc have been improved so I am tryi...

Occasional blue water

I have been playing around with settings of my graphics card and with the Voodoo 2 settings. Overall I see less "jaggies" now but in return I finding that water sometimes displays as plain sky blue colour rather than the normal reflections. This is intermittent but annoying, particularly w...

Re: How to get rid of the 'Links green sky"

Thanks Dan. I have an NVIDIA Quadro K1100M card fitted as well as the standard Intel HD 4600 graphics but I can't seem to get the NVIDIA card to be active :mad:

Re: How to get rid of the 'Links green sky"

I run Links 2003 on a laptop with the same graphics card and the same processor under Windows 10 Pro. I have found that running the game in the dgVoodoo graphics "wrapper" sorts out practically all of the graphics issues with the game, including allowing the use of all the skies available ...

Re: Is EA getting things right? - Links 2k3 Threat Alert !

I hope EA don't go down the same line that they did with PGA Tour 2012 - The Masters and produce a product that is severely limited unless you are prepared to go online to purchase a whole bunch of stuff that should have been available when playing off-line. Off-line the gameplay options of the 2012...

Re: Is EA getting things right? - Links 2k3 Threat Alert !

It has been snowy here today so I've spent a quiet day at home installing and playing some old EA PC golf sims, namely PGA Tour 2008 and 2012 The Masters. They are fun in their own way but don't have anywhere near the precision accuracy, realism and "feel" that Links 2003 still has today. ...

Re: Returning to Links

I am a Links returner as well. It has taken me many years to get Links 2003 to run on my current laptop (Dell Precision M4800 with Intel HD 4600 graphics processor). Using the dgVoodoo graphics wrapper, as suggested earlier in this thread, was THE key thing that has made this possible. All the other...
