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.

Game modes include:
- Stroke Play
- Stableford
- Stableford Pro
- Match Play

- Multi-target
Super Video Golf can be played either as couch co-op with up to 8 players using 1-4 compatible controllers or the PC keyboard, or online with up to 8 computers connecting to a single game. Super Video Golf can also be played as a combination of both allowing up to 16 players in a single round!
Players can customise their characters with a range of designs, hair styles and balls to choose from, with more available in the Steam Workshop. Computer controlled players can be added to a game either to fill out a team roster, to practice against - or simply to pit against other CPU players while you watch and relax. CPU players feature adaptive skill, so as the player's level increases, so does the challenge!
Solo features of Super Video Golf include Monthly Challenges which start at the beginning of each month, as well as a club league where personal progress is pitted against CPU players. The league consists of 24 round seasons, with awards given for top 3 placement and CPU players whose difficulty increases to match the player, season by season.
The clubhouse also hosts all the player's personal stats, such as time spent on each course, the player's score history and any awards received from completing monthly challenges and winning the league.
Every month a new set of leaderboards are created so players can compete around the world to win trophies for placing anywhere in the top 3. Player stats are tracked and broken down by year, month or week and can be viewed from within the clubhouse.
Steam Workshop support means that it is easy to find new customisation options such as new balls or head wear, and even upload your own creations to share.
Super Video Golf supports a wide array of resolutions, from as low as 640 x 480, all the way up to the latest UHD ultra wide displays. Full controller support means that big picture mode is fully supported, ideal for couch co-op play.
