  Your graphics are great and very realistic. What about some flag movement in the wind direction ?

  What about some random wildlife to catch you off guard ? This might sound stupid for a golf game, but if realistic is the key then this could add a little surprise. I can just see the late night player looking twice to try and believe what he just saw :)

  You can allow flag movement, alas not in sync with the wind IIRC.

  The real(!) pictures are a big plus of this game. Can you imagine photorealistic wildlife to be implemented? I can't, and I don't want any artifical elements to spoil the perfect optics.

  The flag dead still always makes me laugh despite a 30mph wind howling. Wildlife chirping and gators snapping - no, to many things to screw up the game and would look unrealistic. But I did have a monkey steal my ball from the middle of a fairway in Indonesia - could be a funny inclusion to WGT but imagine the complaints of lost balls then!

  FYI.. you can turn on the flag animations in your options menu but you might experience a tad more jerky meter.

  Thanks, yes you can but I find the more options I have turned on the worse the meter is, some conflict with my laptop. Hence why I would be reluctant to have additional features enabled such as wildlife.

  Agreed, that is why I put my jerky meter add to my post....Less is better.
