    Has  anybody found a solution ????

    Article below:

    Plugin-based content doesn't work on Chrome

    Plugins previously allowed extra features to be added to browsers. Most of these features can now be included by website creators in a more secure way by default as part of HTML5. Chrome support for these plugins ended September 1, 2015.

    Why NPAPI plugins don’t work now

    In the past, many plugins were developed using an old system called NPAPI. Today fewer sites are using NPAPI plugins and they have often caused security risks on websites.

    To make browsing with Chrome safer, faster, and more stable, we stopped allowing NPAPI plugins on September 1, 2015.

    Plugins that use NPAPI, including Silverlight, Java, and Unity, won’t work. If you want to use a website that uses an NPAPI plugin, you’ll need to use a different web browser.

    PPAPI plugins still work

    Plugins that use a newer, more secure system called Pepper API (PPAPI) still work. That includes plugins that come with Chrome, like Adobe Flash. PPAPI plugins that come with Chrome update when Chrome does, so there's no need to install anything extra.

    Fix Flash problems

    If Flash isn't working, try these solutions to fix the problem:

    Step 1: Turn on PPAPI plugins.

    1. Open Chrome.
    2. In the address bar at the top, type chrome://plugins and press Enter.
    3. Click Details.
    4. Scroll down to "Adobe Flash Player."
    5. Under "Type: PPAPI," click Enable.

    Step 2: Make sure Chrome is up-to-date. You get Adobe Flash player on Chrome automatically, and it updates when Chrome does.

    Step 3: Update Adobe Flash Player manually.

    1. Open Chrome.
    2. In the address bar at the top, type chrome://components and press Enter.
    3. Under "pepper_flash," click Check for update.

    Plugins that use NPAPI, including Silverlight, Java, and Unity, won’t work.

    Or don't use Chrome. There are around 80 other browsers out there if my memory serves me right.

    I use Slimjet, which is a Chromium browser (identical to Chrome) and have pepper flash disabled and NPAPI enable. Smooth as silk meter.

    Go to plugins and disable pepper flash, then go here

    slimjet://flags/#enable-npapi

     

    and enable NPAPI.

    Change slimjet to "chrome" in the search bar

    had meter stutter,  found this back door to WGT.  Log in first with normal browser then open this website in any browser or same. it will be you logged in to a CTTH.......end that round and back to the main lobby you go.  My point is......smooth as silk meter in every browser.....and have seen no disconnects..world golf tour monthly challenge game.jsp  Let me know if i have solved the golfing world's problems with stutter,loading issues, or disco's !!!!! It runs so smooth on memory usage....this is how WGT is supposed to run....smoothly....apparently through a different server or something?  Remember, log in first with any regular browser to WGT.com   then open up a new tab  with this new site and it should have you allready logged in to play smooth ass golf... good luck !    OH yeah....tried chrome with no changes to pepper or NPAPI...basically no changes to any browser......everything good on my end....please let me know how yours does..

    For crystal clear full screen on any browser use the direct link.

    I haven't used the 'Play Now' button for years.

    This is a weird one. Chrome has always been useless for me using the horizontal meter. But when I use the vertical one it works perfect. I would love to know if anyone can explain why it's like this.
