Does anyone here know if this will happen? Aside from the mountain background I think the textures would look incredible on the course!

  I am working on a Highlands version, it does look nice . Mountains are not an issue , I am using the backdrop with no mountains. I put a lot of effort into making it look like the course is continuous (on one coastline). It is actually two coastlines side by side, one for the front and one for the back. The plot was not long enough to capture the 2 miles of continuos coastline  like the real course. When you extend the plot 50 yards at a time the bunkers on the course begin to skew and look terrible. It will be tougher than Links theme version as the green speed is a bit faster in the Highlands theme it seems.  It is almost done but  to eliminate confussion I'm not going to publish it until after TGC tour PGA championship event. I don't have time to create four new tee's and Pins in the Highland theme in time for that event.
