    HELPS!!! NO it doesn't, that's part of my routine on all shots!

    I have to carry 30 clubs in my bag and I am banned from courses with lakes...not by the course, by the Missouri Dept. of Conservation, seems that my corroding clubs were killing the fish!

    hi

    please try another browser. also, if your dots are racing, try waiting a bit, if they calm down, then it's something on your end thats messing with it.

    -wgticon

    Hmmm ???

    Worth checking I guess if an old system / v low spec / loads usually loaded. EDIT: Never harm trying another browser too.

    Allow me to expand with exactly how I see it:

    Most of the time these problems are entirely WGTs end, more precisely the fault of the clueless and hapless New Ideas Department.

    We had a meter and dots that worked really very well for most.

    New ideas decided that WGT should go in to the business of competing with Cheat Central, and so for 30 credits a pop you now get a comparable meter speed to the one used to get to a major final in an internet cafe.

    It was also decided that we needed more camera angles even though they were told there are not enough pictures to do it properly.

    To facilitate the above an overstretched engineer was tasked with reducing game page frame rates, all dressed up as concern for the customer by New Ideas.  Inevitably it was released horribly breaking what was once fine, and appreciated as such.

    To an extent the putting dots are again mostly, well, OK if you do not mind spending time working out how to hold a mouse down here or there / wait / go with that and slowly get used to greens and etc...

    Sadly the green dots remain sub optimal, and detract heavily from the experience.

    New Ideas did it again basically.  Great things that built the place replaced by hapless kids to reduce customer base?  Said customers successfully reduced  the remainder get the enjoyment reducing cheat focus, new camera angles based on too few pictures, and newly broken dots for every angle ..................Brilliant !  

    Bit harsh on the camera angles, which might sometimes be useful some say. Never worth breaking the dots for though, and need way more pics anyway to begin to do it well, but "well" and New Ideas don't mix. .................

    The Dots are like WGT QA ; Useless, Not Trustworthy and don't work as they should !!

    LMAO, didn't see my name there at 1st look. It looks like a wgt tech's kid after being promised a gimme, LOL. Or perhaps this is one of the techs.

    How the heck have you been, Ross. Hope things are going better for you here at wgt. Not so much here, but I keep banging away.

    All the best, Willy

    JLeary1:
    That's fine, I already understand all that, but it doesn't answer my question. The dots are changing speed every hole, every putt, all the time. Fast slow fast slow slower, faster fast slow.

    Same problem here my friend.  It appeared after one of WGT's "helpful" updates.  By way of a work around may I suggest the following.  When lining up you put, switch to reverse view.  Once you have done this switch from your putter to "chip" view.  I have found this tends to even out the speed at which the dots now move.  IMHO, it also gives you a truer indication of the amount of break involved as you can move the aimpoint back and forth to reveal dots that you cannot see with the putter alone.

     

    Hope this helps some, because I find it as frustrating as hell.
