Update 4 - Digital Caddy

Oct 31, 2016

Brand new in this update is the Digital Caddy, your guide to Golf Pro VR. With a glance at your controller you can see information about your current shot, course conditions, scorecard and settings. Also included is an overhead map of the course which includes markers for yourself, your ball and your target hole. This map can be zoomed using the buttons on screen and panned using the touchpad on your controller. I've left the old main menu in until the next update.

Swing impact physics were also tweaked. An approximation of dynamic loft was implemented which means that you should have more control over the height and shape of your ball flight.

The next update will be a tutorial and demo which will explain all the features of the digital caddy. As always, let me know what you think!

Patch notes

Added Digital Caddy
Modified swing physics to include something like dynamic loft
Clubs now wrap around: You can press left from the driver to use the putter and the opposite
UI pointer now comes out the bottom of the controller
Changed UI pointer from tentacle to laser. RIP tentacle.

Hey everyone!

Hope you like the game, please let me know if you run into any issues! Would love to hear any ideas you have about a golf game in VR. The first update should hopefully land this week sometime. I'll post again when I know exactly what will be in it. Looking forward to playing golf with all of you!...

Update 3 - Introducing Villa Angeles

Oct 20, 2016

Included in this update is a new course, Villa Angeles, and a bug fix for a crash-on-start bug. If you were one of the ones affected by the bug and this does not fix it please let me know!

High above the clouds, Villa Angeles is a fantastical course built to satisfy a wealthy clientele. A short course, its challenge lies in the narrow approaches and carries over mountain gorges. If you can hit it straight there are plenty of opportunities for scoring here!

The new course marks a change in the artwork process for Golf Pro VR. Previously we were using the Unreal Engine landscape as the basis for our maps. This had several advantages: quick prototyping of large levels, easy level and material design. The advantages came with some disadvantages though: restricted materials, even polygon distribution, LOD + performance limits. With the new map we have transitioned to using static meshes for the world geometry. The new process lets us distribute geometry where we need it (sand traps, holes, edges in general), use more complicated materials and have things such as clean lines between the fairway and rough. It also frees up some performance that is now used on more sophisticated lighting. The downside is that it takes longer to create maps and this format is less amenable to a course creator. There is still work to be done on it but I think it’s an improvement. The existing two courses will be transitioned over to this new process.

Let me know what you think!
