Thought I saw a post some time back mention that perhaps crz files could be moved to this game - obviously with some changes to file. If this is true, it would sure be great as some really beautiful courses are there. No doubt some of those designers are here. Would really like to see some of those courses here in future - is it possible? Just asking. :)

Yes it is possible using the Terrain Forge tool, which allows you to import the plot, elevations and overhead texture. I think this is how Mike Jones added his Links 2003 versions of Crystal Pines and Shadowlands layouts in to PG.

 

Work would need to be done on the layout using Course Forge and Unity to ready it for use in PG.

 

The one thing to remember is it doesn't give designers carte blanche to go and pick up someone else's Links 2003 APCD design and then import it in to PG.

Thank you for reply. I can see this game will continue to improve and pick up speed as it maneuvers through the tough part first  - and then all the little tweaks and goodies in future. Just Great !!!  :)

I have been trying to convert a few of my APCD courses for use in unity. Some have gone ok and allowed me a plot to work from, others create very strange plots and some seem to get stuck for hours as they are being converted.  TF is an interesting tool, but I still haven't figured it all out yet.

I am planning to import my version of Blackwolf Run over as well as one or two of my originals.... but that is a little ways off as right now I'm still trying to work with the basics of Course Forge.
