Update 1.12.2 - Updated Workshop Tools

It's the first of the month, so let's see what's going on in the world of Super Video Golf! First and foremost, if you hadn't guess by the title, update 1.12.2 is now live! The update corrects a couple of bugs, but the biggest feature is the updated workshop tools. It is now possible to create your own player models to import into the game and optionally upload to the workshop. There's a full guide here - however, briefly, the tools allow importing rigged player models, and will automatically bake textures, apply animations and allow tweaking of attachment points used for headwear and club models.
And to round out the avatar theme of the 1.12 update I've also updated the in-game UI to display the new avatar images, both on the scoreboard, and on the bottom of the UI.
Here's the full (albeit short) list of changes:

Fixed scores not always entering on the leaderboard when playing online games
Fixed crash caused by network players leaving mid-game on the green
Increased time before AFK timeout
Updated readability of keybinds menu
Prevent drone from rendering on mini-map
Avatar icon is displayed next to current players name
Avatar icon is displayed on scoreboard
Added avatar support to workshop tools

[hr][/hr] Looking Forward So the next major update, as mentioned in the last post, will be aimed at increasing the variety in game modes. I've yet to fully decide which will make it in to the next update, however the open beta will continue to run - so you'll be able to try out new features as they appear and offer any feedback on their development. I'm also planning a series of challenges, possibly monthly, to add to the variety of gameplay. If you have any ideas or suggestions, do feel free to join the Steam chat group and get in touch! To add to the challenge of the game I've also been experimenting with weather effects, which will most likely become an optional selection when starting a new round. Here's a quick look:

While these effects will change the gameplay due to the decreased visibility, some other effects are purely aesthetic:

Unfortunately that's all I have to share for now though - apologies if it seems a little light on content, but please bear in mind it has been only a week since the last update! Hopefully this will still whet your whistle, and maybe inspire some new player-avatar based workshop content! Happy golfing!

Super Video Golf is a 90s styled turn-based golf game, with 8 player local and network support. Super Video Golf features a variety of full sized courses, pitch 'n' putt courses and mini golf - each of which can be played in a variety of weather conditions, day or night! It has a tutorial mode and a driving range for offline practice, with full online leaderboards for both the courses and driving range. Reaching specific milestones will unlock features such as the clubhouse or the course editor which allows arranging any of the available holes into a custom course, as well as new items such as clubs and balls.

Game modes include:

Stroke Play
Stableford
Stableford Pro
Match Play
Skins
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.
