    A few times I've played a blitz w/ someone who was hitting shots with 3 ft, or even dropping the shots, with many of the challenges. I thought maybe it was a cheat program which I've read about.

    But when I looked at their score history I usually see something like that they had just been playing Pebble Beach blitz 158 times in a row for the last couple of weeks.

    That is not a cheater or cheat program, obviously. But many people might mistakenly accuse a person like this of cheating.

    I see match play guys do the same thing - they will have about 20 rounds in a row at a course match play. I tell you, I would like to get in to their head and see how they keep their sanity playing the same course 20-30 times in a row.

    If you want to be any good at playing the short games,  this is what you have to do. 20,50,100 maybe 1000 times playing the same course mapping it out, is the norm.

    Apart from wind changes and maybe green speeds.,  where you hit is basically the same place for each game.

    I just couldn't be stuffed at doing that...lol.   I play all games the way it is and the only thing holding me back is my brain.  For me, I enjoy the game better too because I don't know what scores I will shoot.

    Everybody is different at their approach to the game.    Cheats or no Cheats...   I don't really care.  

    We should have a separate Tier, just for people using a cheat...  that would be good....lol

    Cheat engine does not work on WGT...even if you change the values the actual settings  are stored on a server and there will be no changes....

     

    Note that this is only a small FAQ covering the more common questions.

    Q:Will Cheat Engine work on online games?

    A:Most of the time, no

    Q:I tried editing my money in a online game and it showed on my screen that it worked. But when I bought sometimes with it my money was set back to what it used to be, minus what I just bought

    A:That is because the server knows how much money you have. You just changed the display value

    Q:I paid over $100 for Cheat Engine, and now I find out I can't use it on my online game. I demand a refund!!!

    A:...stupid idiot...

    Q:Will the next version of Cheat Engine be undetected for current anti-Cheat systems?

    A:Most likely not


    Q:Can you make a 'xxx' hack for 'xxx' game for me?

    A:No. And if it's for an online game, even more definitely no!

    cheat engine slows the meter down so u dont have to buy slower balls thus spend less money on this game - funny how wgt doesnt act on this as it is hitting their pocket.

    sigh.

    also love how some guys can shoot 54s 55s and 56s consistently in 500c bracket games yet has only played 250 odd ranked rounds.

    almost the end of the line for me here - hard to see this happen everyday and nothing done about it.

    Cheat Engine doesn't cost anything, I'm not sure what that person paid for, but it wasn't CE.

    There are certain values that are indeed stored SS and you can't effect changes, they aren't client window assets. Wind, meter, the green break, the balls are all client assets which can be manipulated within the game via CE. You are manipulating how your game window / UI interacts with data sent to it via WGT server/s.
