    Oh you wont get the avatar movements when putting on the new game version like on flash

    Oy, don't I know it. 11 years using that method and totally clueless now. Hack Central on the greens.  :-(

    That’s funny. . . .10+ years for me and I never noticed avatar moves while putting.  Nor heard of it til about a month ago.

    AD, That how I have always putted. I have putting charts for each tick of the backswing on every increment. Its pretty darn accurate.

    I have been using this method for over seven years...maybe it will take me another seven to relearn ...

    Well there`s good news you still can use the avatar movements on the new PCEA version . I was just playing some practice shots and noticed that the avatar still moves when putting . I have my putting feature set on classic setting . The thing is that the transparent avatar makes it harder to see when putting . It took me a moment to see it but then I realized that yes it does move as before . Maybe WGT will add the controls to turn that feature off like it does in the flash version . Then it will be easier to see and use again .

    I wasn’t doubting.  I just really do think it’s funny that I never knew/realized.  Funny on me!

    dedBuNNy:

    They didn't do anything to the images, the game looking 'nicer' is simply a byproduct of Unity, the fact that the game is utilizing more video card and monitor capabilities.

     

    Just take the time to watch the videos i posted (especially the second one). As for the browsers who don't do scaling (watch the first one). In an era of fiber connections and VDSL at least connections, it's so funny to talk about bandwidth for a true pick 1080. Remember it's just a pick and not a video which requires a lot of bandwidth or compression. Compressing just a RAW image around 2K in order to save bandwidth in 2020 it's just a joke...unless if they are using servers smaller than my bedroom... 

     

    Later on i will upload some image to see Unity vs browser and judge for yourself.

    dedBuNNy, below i put you 2 images in PNG (so no compression). I put them as a link cause forum can't handle big files. Which is A and which is B? And which one of the two is better?

    I obviously erased avatars, indications, grids, ball, arrows which are all extras. We are talking about the original pics.

    Its kind of like, we find what works for each of us and stick with it.

    This is what I use in the new app to putt. I hope it helps

    This is the same setup as my Nike putter used to be. My Sabretooth has the same increments
