Drew a fairway with click click method so not too many adjustment points but Unity comes up with the above error. Deleted that fairway and re-drew with continuous draw method but error persists.

What color is the fairway spline?

[DPRoberts]

Can you measure the dimensions of your attempted fairway? With the default library, you are probably making the fairway too large or accidentally building it with something like the bunker layer. Sometimes when you build, if you forget to deselect your spline and think you are building a new bunker, you actually just changed the selected spline to a bunker. Then, when regenerating splines, your fairway becomes a bunker or has too many points error. The too many points error is a Unity thing, not a CF limitation.

It's yellow.

 

The fairway is 317 yards long by 38 yards wide,

Yellow spline is for the bunker. This will be why you are getting the error. CF thinks you are creating a giant bunker, based on your measurements you have given.

 

IIRC, fairway spline is Orange.

It looked yellow to me but maybe it's orange. Here's a pic showing the fairway in question.

Try smoothing the area and redraw

If you shift click drag that green shape out of the fairway shape, does it calculate?

[Mike Jones]

That's a wide fairway and an even bigger rough/semi rough shape! Just draw a few fairway shapes inside the main fairway and rough shapes inside the big rough spline to break up the one big mesh and it should calculate after that. It won't affect the way the shapes looks or plays at all. If I had to guess I would say the outer rough spline being too big is your problem.

 

You have a vert limit per shape of 65k verts so if you exceed it you will get the error message. Try my solution it will work.

Even better to reduce the size of the semi-rough ?

Yes, probably a good idea.

Before I try the solutions mentioned I saw two strange patches of terrain. In this image there is one at the bottom left of the fairway and the other is below the fairway as you look at the image. Neither have been drawn as there is no spline visible. Does this have an effect on the issue.

Lets deal with one issue at a time 

[clubcaptain]

Problem solved thanks with a mixture of shrinking the rough and drawing some shapes inside the fairway shape.

Greetings, all.  Happy Holiday season to you and your families.  I've been attempting to draw a bunker that runs all the way down one side of a hole that begins at the tips and ends just about 15 yards short of the green.  Obviously getting the "Too many vertices in one mesh" error as I'm trying to draw a huge trap, but is there a way to accomplish this?

First time user of Unity and CF and this is all new to me, but really enjoying it.

Mike Jones, thanks so very much for all the video tutorials, they are an invaluable resource.

Any help appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
