Regards the galleries, what would folks be expecting from PP?

Billboard spectators who were static or full 3D with reactions?

What does TGC have in the way of galleries as a comparison, as we know Rory has the full on tournament trimmings.

I personally wouldn't want crowds, but soundscripts from the golfer or other golfer's point of view would be great... or a caddy would be cool too.    IF there were to be crowds, then definitely 3D... I dont have the game, but from the videos I watched, the crowds in Rory are amazing.    TGC doesn't have galleries.. don't think it was ever term'd a "tournament" type atmosphere with crowds, etc.

3D galleries would/could be a burden on the fps no? For low a/o medium end users could this be more aggravation then fun? Maybe an option to have 'm static or 3D? Or, like in Links, an option for no, few and big galleries?..

This is an older video of Tiger Woods 2008. I did not add objects to this round but did allow some gallery sounds - cheers and applause. Also turned up the ambient sounds to hear the wind.

Personally I never cared for the animations in TW  for a bird or an eagle or a bog. I turned all that off. I did have the commentators and ambient sounds on though. The funny thing is after how many rounds I have played on the game every now and then McCord or David will come out with a new gem that I never heard before. I mean I must have at least  played over 5000 rounds on the game as I played 2- 4 round tournaments a week for at least 7 years plus the career mode completed  and qute often had a few causal rounds with buddies in between those . To hear a different comment after all that time just makes me laugh.

I agree on the player animations, but it was nice to  have so many options in that game.   Eventually I removed all the ambient sounds from the game except ball impact sounds, the wind and the waves on the oceans. I also disabled all golfer pre and post shot animations.  I liked to see the swing, here the swoosh, smack and watch ball in follow mode.

 

As for this video, I made it to show the animations of the golfer per a request of a player who had never seen the game played before. Same is true of Links. But most of my new videos will be of PG, especially when I play a hole like #17 on Schwartz. That's going to be a nice video when I get around to it.

I did not like the animations antics of TW 2008. The animations themselves were great.  I enjoyed building my personal character to.  I exercised my inner kid doing that.  One week I was over 7 feet tall the next week I'd be the size of a little person.  Just kept my friends entertained guessing how I'd look each week.   Was a fun thing to do.

Now on to the ambient noises that imo added the sought after atmosphere missing in Perfect Golf.  The ball impact with the club, wind, leaves rustling and crowd noise was well done and added a nice element of realism to the game in TW.  I am sure Perfect Golf will eventually have even better sounds once they develop and incorporate them into the game. 

The Dev's have a full plate, right now, and expect they have a plan for sounds for this great game.  So I look forward to improvements yet to come. Thank you!
