Greetings golfers! Welcome to another update.
As mentioned in the progress update at the beginning of the month this update is centred on player profiles and avatar customisation.
Avatar customisation has now been reorganised, so that it is possible to create up to 64 unique profiles, from which up to 8 can be added to the game's roster. Each profile allows for its own model, head wear, ball and set of colours (from an increased colour palette) and can even have a custom mugshot image added to it.
Mugshot images are client-side only (they are not replicated in network games) which allow you to choose a custom image to display above your ball when putting or on the round summary screen. Typically this would be an image representing your avatar, however you can add any image you like. There is a modding guide available here, which explains how to add your own custom images.
However this is not all the update brings, as many quality of life improvements have been added. Graphical enhancements include updated ball trail rendering, and a coarse terrain grid on the green on approach.
The stroke indicator on the mini-map has been refined, and now reflects changes in distance caused by the current spin settings and terrain. For example it will display a shortened distance when playing from a sand trap or the rough.
Putting Assist has been re-balanced so that playing without it is a greater challenge and awards more XP, however with it enabled there is now also a stroke indicator on the mini-green map.
The menus and UI have been given some attention too. Under the hood improvements have been made to increase performance of the menus, as well as new information such as course stats and leaderboards are visible, both in the lobby and on the driving range.
And, when playing golf, it is now possible to skip the current turn to the end, if you are a local player to the client.
