    Hey all. So the team is aware of this issue with the swing meter moving erratically for players on Windows using older/low spec hardware. I was working with Support, asking players that messaged in what hardware they were running, and seems to be affecting players that are using CPUs that have an initial release date of 10+ years ago and no dedicated GPU. Tried it on an older system of mine with an i7 from 5 generations ago (9700k) and a GTX 1080 and had no issues, even disconnecting my GPU and running on board graphics the game ran fine, but these older systems from 2008-2012 that players reported having issues on were experiencing this swing meter stutter. 

    If you are running newer hardware and are still seeing this swing meter issue, let me know and I can bring this up with the team. You can find your PC and CPU info by selecting the Windows Button, Settings, System, and then About. If you do a Google Search for your CPU model and "release date" this will give you when that CPU was released. For example, one player wrote in they were using an i3-370m, which was released in 2010. 

    Info was passed along to Q/A and they are looking into it. They are also aware of the issue with Callaway balls not rendering color correctly and avatar opacity not looking right (showing a dot/grid pattern when the avatar is translucent). Ball color and avatar opacity I would estimate being fixed in the next couple updates, but no news on the swing meter for these older systems.

    The female avator looks like she is playing with a broken wrist , particularly noticeable on the drive.

    Maybe she has a sprained wrist

    2016 HP Slimline desktop PC for me.

    Windows 10 is OS.

    My meter is awful. Even with fancy more expensive balls it is awful.

    Please get this issue fixed asap.

    Ridiculous to have a smooth meter with this PC and then after November update it is like this.

    Thanks,

    Michael

    Can i add some more, just in case you want to inform the team?

    1. The levels of the game are wrong. This one affects everything.

    2. Gamma is wrong.

    3. Colors are undersaturated.

    (These are coming from a calibrated monitor with ΔΕ<2)

    4. On the chatbox the letters are pale gray, instead of black. Combined with the wrong levels, it's hard even to read the posts.

    5. Inside the green the avatar hides the distance and the elevation of the putt.

    You nailed it !   Same problem here.   It looks like the game is going to load and then my screen on the IPad goes dark.   Haven’t been able to to play for three days now.

    I totally agree all they want is your money I bought Callaway balls paid 300 coins for them on the next hole something happened I was hovering above the ground and they took all three balls from me now I have to spend money to buy three more balls it’s totally ridiculous I would love to know if I could take my clubs and move them to another golf game this is the worst I’ve ever seen

    What's it been? Two weeks now? And still no fix... you can't blame it on older hardware, because many with newer hardware are having the same issues.

    It's your update! Unnecessary animations, no followup testing before dumping it on unsuspecting members. 

    I hear the frustration levels rising among players. I can't help but see this affecting your 'business model' negatively.
