Re: Windows 11
In a way, I cannot blame M$ for cutting off support for older machines. I've heard some interesting stories about the kind of things they have to do so that old apps or hardware will still work. Most of the BSOD errors you see on Windows are probably from [old] drivers that have bugs. When those cra...

Re: Windows 11
An article on Slashdot writes, "Windows Users Surprised by Windows 11's Short List of Supported CPUs" Windows 11 will only support 8th Gen and newer Intel Core processors, alongside [Intel's 2016-era] Apollo Lake and newer Pentium and Celeron processors. That immediately rules out millions...

Re: Rolling Contoured Courses of Unpredictability
I have been mining this thread for courses for a while now and must say that I have really "enjoyed" playing some of the courses listed here. If it weren't for their being mentioned/recommended here, I might never have downloaded some of these. Now, I understand that most of these courses ...

Re: Nautilus Bay Tour Edition
Nautilus Bay Tour Edition course. I consider it to be one of the best links course designs. The course provides an interesting challenge with spectacular scenery. Thanks for the tip. I've been (slowly) working my way through all the courses I've downloaded (500+). I am never entirely sure which one...

Chicago GC (message to Sage Vanni)
Hey Sage, finally got around to playing this course in Links .. it is pretty nice, thank you for contributing it. Of course, it reminds me of The South Course at Arcadia Bluffs: https://arcadiabluffs.com/the-south-course (which was designed with Chicago GC in mind). If you are looking for another co...

Re: Shot Tips
Using the Classic swing gauge (I know, amateur hour :tongue: ), if you are in a greenside bunker that is not too deep, you can select to Chip from there rather than use a full swing. The benefit to this is that the progress bar on the swing gauge moves slower, so it is easier to hit the "mark&q...

Re: Courses with the Toughest Greens
Sorry. I had already included Augusta when I read your message. Maybe someone else might like to try it. 1) I've got 2 files for you, that you can play against. Two courses. You would be wise to play a practice round first. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ny6jkqfkc4pzgtz/pmgolf-LSPN%20CrookedCreekHD3%20w...

Links: The Challenge of Golf gameplay (PC Game, 1990)
Happened to see this video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5TPAxMfpbQ Shows someone playing 9 holes on the original, Access Software Links version. Trying to remember if I've played that version. I'm thinking not, the version which was the first one I ever tried was more likely the next...

Re: Courses I'd like to see in Links 2003 Part 2
With my Michigan bias at full steam, I'd love to see any of these: Crystal Downs (by Dr. Alister MacKenzie!) Greywalls (Mike DeVries course in Marquette) The Bluffs course at Arcadia Bluffs (right on Lake Michigan shoreline) The Bear at Grand Traverse Resort (Jack Nicklaus course in Traverse City) (...
