Hello everyone, I've been working on a couple of mountain themed courses for some time. Unfortunately been busy with my real work so progress has been quite slow. Need to do some visual improvements but have finally completed all holes and hopefully get the first versions out some time soon.

 

For those interested some pictures below and in the link. Any feedback, comments, recommendations are very welcome.

Mount Zanzibar Resort North Course

Fictional resort located in Eastern Africa. Wide slightly undulating fairways with some interesting bunkers and runoffs around the greens but nothing too bold.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Blackface Mountain

Fictional course set up at remote Scottish Highlands. This course is very rough and is only maintained by runaway Irish sheep farmer and his sheep. No machinery was used or any earth moved for this course. If you cannot handle a bad bounce or two, stay away from this course.

stunning work again!

Great to see you've got that magic wand back out. They both look like they'll be beauties.

You're going to have to get some trees to do that African one justice. Acacia and baobab maybe. Not sure if you've taken on Speedtree but you certainly have the eye to do it.

[Goran JoeMen]

Yes, looking forward to tee up on both from the georgious screenshots! But I must say the scottish one looks very rough and promising.

There are many talented designers but yours are probably my most played courses, all five of them. They have so much replay value, if I have bad swing rhytm one day and spray the balls it is almost more fun because of the wide playing areas. No round plays like the last one.

They both look fabulous Mike. I'm a huge fan!

Me too!!

The textures and colors in the Scottish course are just awesome, It all fits perfectly with your story of the course. Love all your courses Mika but extra excited about this one. If you need any aspect of these new ones tested PM me, would be delighted to help.

Goodness! Absolutely stunning views. Instant classic's if you ask me. Great River White is a masterpiece and a great billboard for your work, so adding these courses will only increase your standing threefold. Fantastic designs and many thanks for all the dedication and hard work. Hope to add these beauties to my collection soon!

Blackface Mountain sounds like Bumpy greens will be a must, lol.

Screenies look sublime.

[Jwheels9876]

My god, those just look like real pictures of beautiful courses.. amazing work as usual!!

[M Rose]

I especially love the textures on the bottom one... very cool. All of these are so different looking, but in a good way.

[Dazmaniac]

Are we sure Blackface Mountain hasn't been done in TGC2?

 

ROFLMAO.

Thanks all for the comments. I've got few pictures from the Mount Zanzibar South course. Thanks Larrykuh for some useful stuff now I'm trying to get both the North and South course out sometime soon. Still working on to make these look right.

All 3 of these courses look fantastic and will add some different elements to our course library. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to teeing up in South Africa

Incredible!

Wow! It seems you push the CF to a new limit with every release. Many thanks for your great work. It's much appreciated.

[granite00]

How are these two coming along?

[mikahenrik]

Things are moving on just adding some finishing touches to the Zanzibar courses now. Unfortunately it's taking little longer as I made some changes to the scenery to replace forest/trees with sand and wetlands to get the FPS better and I think it looks better as well. I don't think the African setting need too many trees and will remove few more before release.

If someone has or is interested in building a low poly "resort, hotel, clubhouse" for this one to use please let me know. Not asking anyone to go out of their way but if you have something that somewhat fits the Mount Zanzibar Resort theme that would be a big helper and will award you with plenty of gratitude and recognition

 

Location of the resort is on the hill between finishing holes, driving range and the par 3 course. The red drawings are just very rough description of the area available and the building(s) need not cover all of it.

I bet if you asked Justin nicely, he would jump at the opportunity to create a clubhouse for you. Just supply some images of something you had in mind. I'd give it a go, but I am busy helping DPR with a new version of his house builder.
