  Since the last update a couple bugs have cropped up

  No kidding, Sherlock. Did you figure that out all by yourself by simply playing a friggin game? That's all you have to do, get 3 others and play 1 AS hole, just 1,and count the number of viewing bugs. Start with the missing reverse view of any other putt than your own. And try to ignore the annoying clack sound you get when new screens are loaded.

  I don't know what's more embarrassing-WGT letting this bugfest out or you trying to come up with workarounds. This is totally pathetic, especially given you admit there's a Q/A team. They are failing miserably and you are enabling them.

  NO such thing as a q/a team here ,  a zoo of monkeys could not get it more wrong these days.

  p.s At least I know monkeys throw *** at you!

  Kill the messenger? At least he's trying to help find ways around the crap they infested the game with until, hopefully, the devs fix it (w/o adding ANYTHING). 

  Now I see why the mods won't even acknowledge posts/complaints. Shamwow should pull a "sit back, shut up, and let everyone whine and whine and whine, and threaten to stop playing (BS), or buying balls/equipment (BS)".

  Hi All,

  Since the last update a couple bugs have cropped up. I just wanted to have a separate post with the bugs that have been reported and temporary work arounds until they are fixed. These are ones that we are aware of and our Q/A team is working on fixes for. If you find any others, feel free to post them here. Also if you find one mid game, please submit a bug report advising what happened by right clicking on the game client and selecting "Submit this problem to WGT". These go straight to our Q/A team and even though they are not able to respond, they are extremely helpful in tracking and fixing these bugs. 

  Putting in Practice Mode (Mulligan)
  Problem: When you take a mulligan after a putt, the grid dots switch direction with no way to change them back

  Solution: Take a practice swing, the ability to switch grid dot direction comes back and they revert to the normal left - right orientation.

  Fairway Camera View (Mulligan)
  Problem: When you take a mulligan after a fairway shot or drive, you are only given the reverse putting view instead of alternate camera views.

  Solution: Take a practice swing, camera function will revert back to normal 

  Unable to Switch Standbag Slots
  Problem: Cant select another stand bag slot, clicking on any other slot does nothing.

  Solution: Change a piece of equipment (clubs or ball seems to work) and without saving, select another standbag slot. They should be unlocked until you save. Next time you edit equipment you will have to do this again.

  Flashing "Play Now" Bar:
  Problem: The play now bar keeps flashing, cant select anything or make it stop

  Solution: Make sure you only have one tab/page open with that browser. Having multiple instances of the WGT website causes this. 

  Swinging from Avatar:
  Problem: After one practice swing from swinging the club from the avatar instead of the swing meter, you cannot swing from the avatar again.

  Solution: Swing from the swing meter or change clubs will allow you to swing from the avatar. 

  Multiple Practice Swings:
  Problem: Taking two or more practice swing/letting the meter swing out  locks club selection, ball spin, and mini map.

  Solution: Unfortunately for this one,  I have not found a solution. If you take two or more practice swings it will lock the club selection until you take a swing. The next shot everything will be unlocked.

  All the Best,
  WGTShamWow 

  Geeez Sham, good intention indeed : )))), BUT...... isn't clear to you a WGT moderator that WGT should use some of the HUGE budget to at least try to fix the game???

  WGT is a real money maker, we all know that, but WGT does not seem to make any REAL effort to fix the game.....plenty, I mean, plenty of bugs that seem to be there forever while WGT keeps planning new ways TO SALE its products.

  Bugs keep on mounting while WGT gets richer & richer.....not fair if you ask me.
