Hey there Golfers!

Thank you for your patience as we have worked to resolve a few issues from our last update! We have now released a hotfix for the following issues:

Linux:
Resolved graphical issues on Bouncy Castle Course.

Level Editor Fixes:

• Objects will now respect the state of the Snap setting when initially placed from the palette.
  
• Softlock resolved when testing a course containing the 6x6Ramp+2_Base_deep object.
  
• Manipulating planes in the object movement widget now respects the snap setting.
  
• The Workshop course select menu can now display over 50 subscribed courses.
  
• Quick-place functionality reimplemented for objects already in the scene.
  
  This differs slightly from the original implementation. Upon pressing the quick-place key (default alt), a new copy will immediately appear on the cursor and can be placed freely.
  
  Known Issue: Only the first copied object will retain height/scale/rotation values. This can be worked around by re-pressing the quick place key after placing a copy, and will be fixed in an upcoming update!

Hey there Golfers!

We are aware of some graphical issues that are occurring with the Bouncy Castle update for Linux players. This has lead to an inconsistency in version numbers that meant Linux players were not able to play with Windows and Mac players.

A patch has been deployed to fix this, however the Bouncy Castle Course still has graphical issues on the Linux setups we have tested. Therefore, we have temporarily disabled the purchase of the new course from Linux devices.

Whilst we work to resolve these issues, we would recommend that Linux users avoid playing the new course with PC/Mac hosts, feel free to continue to play all other courses and game modes as normal.


FAQ:

Can I buy the Bouncy Castle Course?

We have disabled purchasing from a Linux device whilst we look into this, but you can still purchase it from a Mac/Windows device.

I am a Linux user, what happens if I try to play the Bouncy Castle Course?

You may experience graphical artefacts that substantially hinder your play experience. You can play the course in full, but your gameplay experience will not be what we intended, and you do so at your own risk.

Can I play with the new cosmetics?

The Racing Pack and Summer Party Pack are separate to the Bouncy Castle course and are working as intended on Linux.

When will the Bouncy Castle Course be available on Linux?

We are currently looking into the issue and will provide and update when we have one. In the interim feel free to place your bug reports on the Report A Problem sub forum.

That's all for now, Golfers! Keep an eye on our page for any further updates!

Following reports from our players, we have become aware of an issue with our error reporting in Golf With Your Friends since yesterdays patch. Specifically, this was sending us the games entire debugging file by mistake - per error instead of the individual error alone. This of course means the data files were larger than necessary (eg. 360kb per error report instead of 60kb which is normal)

Our team needs to investigate the issue, so we will be temporarily turning BackTrace reporting off while we do this.

We apologise for any inconvenience or confusion this update has caused and will keep you updated with any changes and fixes we make.

Hi golfers!

Weve released a patch to address some reported issues and also add in some metrics that will allow us to get a better understanding of how players are interacting with the game.

Weve implemented analytics tracking purely so we can get a read of how players are interacting with the game! For example, it will allow us to see which course is the most played.

In the event that you see [noparse]ads.t17service.com[/noparse] in a filter pop-up, this is nothing to be alarmed about. This is not an advertising feature ads stands for Amazon Directory Service. This is simply the service we use to manage configuration data in game, for example: links to social media channels, or authenticating multiplayer services with our provider.

If you do not want to have analytics tracked in your game, you can choose to opt out of this in the in-game options menu.

If you encounter any issues when playing Golf With Your Friends, please post in our forum or submit a support ticket through our website.

A full list of changes can be found below

[h2]Patch Notes[/h2]

Added:

• Added in game metrics to help us understand how players engage with different parts of the game.

• Fixed an issue where front end music will briefly play at the default volume when first loading into the front end
  
• Fixed an issue with anti-aliasing setting not retaining its state
  
• Fixed an issue where an offensive player name doesn't become censored after a player enables the profanity filter
  
• Fixed an issue where the game does not register the ball is in the hole if pushed in by another ball
  
• Fixed an issues where the player was unable to continue if another player hits them into the hole
  
• Fixed an issue where you could not press 'enter' to join a password lobby, only the mouse

First place goes to unskilled | LeOssi with the map Santa's Sleigh. This map is an exciting trip that takes players down hills, through caves and into a warm cabin by the frozen lake but most importantly Saint Crumbz has just landed.




2nd Place

Second place goes to herbstwerk with the map Freezing in the Woods. This map is a nice chilled out experience, take in the views and witness the activities of the snowmen.




3rd Place

Third place goes to RinTooTheTiger with the map The Christmas Climb. Experience great views on slippery slopes suspended above a frozen lake.

We hope everyone is having a great start to 2019!

We just wanted to take the time to wish everyone a great NewYears! We live in Brisbane Australia so It has just hit midnight! We wanted to thank everyone for the amazing amount of support and love we have received in the last few years, this is our very first game as all 3 of us are self-taught so it has been a crazy experience.

We never intended to put Golf With Your Friends on steam or even make it our full time jobs as it was only intended for our close friends around Australia as we had moved a lot throughout our lives.

It was originally free on itch.io however many people pushed for us to jump into steams greenlight and develop the game further we are so thankful for that as after a very nerve-wracking greenlight period we made it to steam!

We are so very happy for the community that has grown around the game, the amazing workshop maps people have created and for the tremendous amount of friendships we have acquired throughout.

2019 will be amazing for Golf With Your Friends and we will not stop until everything is ironed out, we understand there is many issues currently with the game and we do hear you, these will be addressed in the new year along with a lot more!

Stay safe and have a great night! We hope 2019 is an amazing year for everyone!

Workshop Event
We want to thank everyone for being a part of our first community event! We didnt give as much time as we would have liked but we are happy to see so many great maps.
We currently have another event on the way so keep your eyes open, as much as we would love to award everyone with a trophy for their great work and participation however there can only be three winners.
Now these three winners are not only just judged on the popularity of their maps but also on the hole designs, scenery and our own thoughts, if your map is not a winner dont stress too much as we have another event just around the corner! AND all Halloween maps will now forever (I hope) be under that 2018 tag for the community to see.

All winners will find their trophies in their steam inventories soon! They are not yet usable on maps however we are working on implementing them under a special tab. Again, thank you to all our map makers! There were so many great ideas and good maps! We are excited to see what the community comes up with over . CHRISTMAS!

Additionally in the next patch we may also include a new game mode which may or not may pit you and your friends against each other in groups.
This patch will come soon.
Have a great week everyone!

Halloween Event
The Halloween event is now live! We have hats, trails and floaties to collect until oct 31st!
We would like to thank everyone for the insane amount of support from our lovely community and we are blown away by the number of amazing maps that have been created. We have a secret idea we may possibly go ahead with to reward popular map makers but that’s very hush hush for now.
We have 10 new Halloween items for 2018, Please remember that these items are only obtainable this year much like the 2017 Halloween items.



Level Editor
Skybox's and Music

Currently the editor is still in an early stage I have added a few new assets and in the coming months I’ll be focusing on fleshing out the current themes, Terrain manipulation is on its way :) we currently have a very rough version working but its going to take a while to flesh out.

But what's new in this update?
Skyboxes and music, finally!

To access these just press escape then use the sliders, just don't press exit :) sorry about that.


Floaties!
Finally, we have floaties in game, currently we only have 10 floaties but I will be adding more as we go.
As for skins they may be a while off due to the amount of work needed on the level editor and upcoming theme.



Our Social Stuffs
If you want to keep up to date with what's going on we post a lot of sneak peeks and WIP stuff on our social networks.

Where have you been?
Hey all!
We apologize for being MIA for a while, we didn’t have all that much to show for last month due to working purely on the editor but here’s what we are currently up to.
- Updated unity to 2018! (soon we will be able to make shaders and cool stuff a lot faster).
- Base foundation of the editor is done!
- 3 of the 6 themes are fairly populated with assets.
- Currently in the process of getting an office (this means we can possibly hire more developers!) the 3 of us are extremely excited about potentially growing our team, however this wont be for quite some time.

PLEASE READ!
Yes, the editor works, but it's still rather buggy so please save your maps often, things may go wrong so please be patient and we will get fixes out when we can, for now the editor is for you all to play with and get creative. We wont baby you with the editor because we know you are all intelligent human beings, however a tutorial will come along with many stability fixes and new assets to work with!



What is in the editor so far?
Glad you asked, currently its bare bones but useable (fingers crossed) this is early access and including everyone in this process will help us fix and evolve the editor as it progresses. (NOT ITS FINAL FORM!)
- One terrain (grass). No terrain manipulation just yet.
- 6 themes with 3 being populated a lot more than others.

What’s to come?
We have many crazy ideas and things we would love to add but here is the current list of things we still need to add.
- Music selection
- Skybox/theme selection + terrain type
- Terrain manipulation (painting and sculpting mountains, etc.)
- MORE assets for the current themes
- Even more themes!
- Special asset items
- Currently I have taken animated animals, etc. out but they will return
- Game mode types
- Heaps more! But ill keep them a secret for now!

Known issues
- Possible issue with mac saving and loading maps
- Sometimes controls may freeze up in the editor
- You need to save before you publish
- Camera sometimes removes itself
- Items getting stuck when scrolling
- Some objects dont rotate
- Location, rotation and scale numbers dont update when initially placing objects
- Pars dont update in the editor
- No way to adjust custom settings just yet

Hello Everyone!

Super sorry for the delay, ran into issues that needed to be sorted out.

Testing Developer made workshop maps! No editor just yet :(
So, a few of you might have noticed the GWYF workshop visible with a few maps on there, these are made by us to test the editor.
In this update you'll be free to play these but expect a few bugs, we'll sort these out over the next few days.

We will also be adding more to each of these maps until they are full 18hole courses along with other maps for testing.

I would like to say a big thank you to everyone in the experimental build for testing extremely glitched versions for us.



Once this build is stable I'll be finishing off the editor so you all can make maps, you can check out the progress every week on our livestreams here.

Late Easter items
Due to the delay we have officially changed Easter to today, we have 5 items and will run the drops until the end of May.



Changelog
[Added] Workshop menu
[Added] Ability to play workshop maps
[Fixed] Par popups flashing on screen
[Fixed] Hockey achievements
[Changed] Selecting map now automatically takes you back to the lobby
[Changed] Tons of assets have been re-worked and fixed for the editor

Known issue
- Scaling of UI elements is off for different ratios

Hey everyone
Yes, its another boring news post.

We are still hammering away at the level editor, obviously we would have wanted it out months ago but building an editor from scratch does take time.
However not much longer ;)
As stated in the last update we have most of the foundation built for the editor there’s just a few annoying glitches and things to add.

Video example
Here’s a terrible video I threw together tonight to show 5 holes being made in the editor (yes they are bad) also excuse my video editing skills :)

https://youtu.be/cK0fJAkCSEM

Assets
A lot of themes are now in the process of receiving even more foliage, course pieces, Etc Which again takes a very long time, (model asset, sculpt details, bake said details, paint asset, make prefab in unity) the whole process takes quite a while and we would much rather build everything in house so you get a unique experience worth your money instead of buying hundreds of assets that dont match and every other game uses.



Once I feel the 6 themes have a substantial amount of assets to work with I will be working on new themes, so please let me know what you’d like to see. And yes space is on the list :P
Here’s a list of themes id like to look further into
- Space or space station
- Volcanic
- Actual golf courses
- Tundra/Snow
- Carnival
- Medieval

But we want the editor now!

Now I’m not saying we will release it sooner but there may be the possibility of us either releasing some workshop maps we have made for players to play in the mean time or exposing our closed beta testers (mainly our moderators) to the editor and allowing them to make you maps for now… however, I completely understand how unfair that sounds.

Easter Event

Another thing to note is I am currently unsure if I will have enough items for the Easter update, so please do not be too disappointed ill make up for it during Halloween.


Twitch

I just wanted to do a short update to stay transparent with everyone :) also please join us on twitch 10am AEST ( Australian Eastern Standard Time) every Tuesday we show off new stuff and the editor :) - https://www.twitch.tv/blacklightinteractive

Thank you <3

Hey all!
Sorry for the lack of updates recently, the main reason behind this is the progress on the editor, I also want to thank you all for your patience and for still supporting us! We are working all day every day and understand the pain of waiting for things you want super bad, This weekend we have to fly across the country for a wedding and i think you are all entitled to know whats going on and when we are out of the office (tiny room in our home xD).

We will still be working while over there (book work and sketching) so don’t stress too much!

So, what is to come?
We now have workshop working with the ability to save/load and publish maps to the workshop with images (taken using cameras in game) Publishing maps takes no time at all maybe a second or two and downloading maps also only takes a few seconds which now allows players to join custom workshop maps instantly.




Assets?
We currently have 5 themes working and will have 6 very soon once the Graveyard set is ready.
Along side the assets we already have in the classic game we now also have a ton of extra assets which is super exciting, these items also include revamped old assets such as the housing in forest!
;) There will be hundreds more to come as well!



Forgive my terrible map but this is a quick example of what you can currently build, We still need to work on backgrounds, skybox’s and more visual assets to flesh out the environments.




So whats left?
Currently we need to get the loading of maps working in the game so you can play multiplayer, a lot of bug fixes for example scaling of objects is glitched but still works with T and drag, we want to include a CTL-Z feature hopefully that wont be too difficult and we also want a butt load of assets per theme so there is a huge variety for you all. :)

Fingerscrossed all of this goes perfect and we dont run into too many issues but as usual i cannot give an ETA on the next update or the editor due to everything being trial and error.

Hockey achievments will come next update!
I want to thank you all for the support and for waiting this long, we know its taking a long time but this is our first game and there is only 3 of us making everything from scratch. it will be worth the wait!
LETS SMASH THIS OUT! :)

<3

Hey everyone, I hope all is well.
Valentine’s Day items are now live, I know its super early, but it’ll give everyone a chance to get their hands on them.

There are only 7 new items this time 5 hats and 2 trails due to work on the editor but don’t worry Easter will be a good one ;)
Have a great week and thank you for the support we have gone through all reports and are working around the clock to get fixes in, more cheat prevention and work on the editor! Please be patient we promise the wait will be worth it.
I also want to thank everyone again for the continued support, understanding and helping us in the development on gwyf, this is our first game and we have learnt so much! Thank you for being a part of this it means the world to the three of us.

Hey all
Hope everyone had a great holiday.
Sorry for the delay on this build, holiday theme lasted a lot longer than it should have.

This update is to prepare the menus and UI pieces for the coming level editor, which is why it has taken some time considering we have rewritten the menu, leader board, etc. (also for team modes)

So please don’t be too mad at us we are trying our absolute best to get everything done, it takes a long time with only one programmer, also modelling and hand painting everything your selves. However, we hope it pays off in the end with a unique style, composed music (soundtrack release soon), a ton of themes especially for use in the editor and so much more.

Again, thank you all so much for the support and being a part of our first game!

[Added] New menu for level and mode selection
[Added] New leader-board

We just wanted to thank everyone for the support and to wish you all a Happy New Year!

We are super excited for 2018 and what it will bring, here is a list of things we are going to focus on for 2018. ETA’s will vary.

- Level editor release! + more themes and additional assets for the current themes!

- Skins and Boats

- Additional game modes (Hockey is ready to go, Others are secrets for now)



- New menu to accommodate workshop/level editor, it will also make creating lobbies easier and more customizable (already ready to go)



- Controller Support

- Community days – We already stream 10am GMT +10 but we would like to play custom maps and vote together along with other events!

- MORE MAPS! (Themes) we originally promised 6 but I went and made a 7th however I want to continue making themes for the editor alongside that classic maps.

We have so much more coming but are keeping our lips sealed for now.

From the 3 of us at Blacklight Interactive stay safe, have a great new year and we will see you all in 2018!

Quick update
Sorry for the delay on this one, let me know if you still get this problem or if anything else pops up.

Changelog
[Fixed] Fin hat
[Fixed] Issue with game settings not saving
[Fixed] Weird bouncing issue on walls

Hey Everyone!
Hope you're all in the holiday spirit!
Today we've got a small update for you guys and a bit of a dev update.

Holiday event!
During this month you'll be able to unlock a selection of new holiday themed trails and hats, we have made these more likely to drop than what their rarity shows, we'll more than likely extend this into the new year, so you have more time to pimp your golfing rock.

For people concerned that the creation of these items has halted progress on the level editor, fear not! DominantDino has solely worked on these items just as he did for the Halloween event.



Editor progress
The Editor is coming but we want a solid and decent editor before we release the first build.
I’m still learning quite a bit but also working on ways to prevent people from ruining games.
Check out our twitch channel for video of the editor in progress and other development related content.

Thanks you!
From the 3 of us at Blacklightinterative we want to thank everyone for the support throughout this year and for the future, positive or negative feedback has helped us more than you can imagine.

As most of you are aware this is our very first game and we want to give you as much content and uniqueness as we possibly can, we will not stop until this game is amazing and has hours of content!

Happy Holidays!
Blacklight Interactive wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Safe and Happy Holidays!

Hello!
Hope you’re all doing well.

We’re releasing pirate cove into experimental as we’re heading to Pax and won’t be able to fix anything major, we think it’s better to not rush it to public just yet.

We are still missing sound effects, achievements and a few things.
Let us know of any bugs or suggestions here and we’ll sort them out when we get back.

Thanks for the help, sorry for the delay.

How to access this build?
Swap to the experimental build under the games Steam settings in the beta’s tab.
Make sure you’re not running the game when you do this.

As we all know Halloween isn't far away, so we decided to run an event all throughout the rest of October.
Don’t stress about the large download size, we are just getting files ready for the next level and level editor which now has over 300+ assets to use!

We were rushed a little for this update so let us know of any issues and we'll get them sorted as soon as possible.

The event will run through October, We have changed the lobby/practice area to feel a little bit spookier (If that’s even a word) and we have 13 new hats/trails that are available only during this event!



EHMGERD file size is so large!
Its unfortunate but not all bad news!, the large file size is due to the amount of assets in the level editor and also the files for the next level.
Please don’t cut our heads off over the updates file sizes.

Next Map
The pirate level is nearly ready for testing :) I have hole 18 to complete and then we can push to experimental! who's excited?

Level Editor
You can now add spawn positions and hole detectors in the editor and test the holes you create from start to finish. Video

We are up to adding workshop support aswell as saving and loading local maps.

If you have nothing better to do, follow us on our Twitch or catch-up on our Youtube.
We show off what we've been working on for the week and have an open discussion with chat.

Feel free to drop by.
Take care.

Hey all
Again we would like to thank everyone for the support it means so much to us.
Wheel and I have been working super hard and even mazaski has taken some time out of studying to help transfer assets to the editor.

Pirate cove (Name still unsure)
I currently still have the last 4 holes to go which may take some time considering what I want to have at the end, I still need to do a ton of assets for around the map and then we can test, add bounds, etc.
These shots are not the final look to the level there is still a ton to do and also a ton of visual things to go in.







Level editor
Here’s a few shots of some of the assets. We still have a ton more to add and will also be making more to include so there will be a lot of choice.







Sorry for such a short update but the rest is all programming and rather boring, on a side note im also working on the items for Halloween :) (Hats,trails,etc).
Heres a sneak peak of one.


We hope you all have a great weekend and we will keep smashing this out.
Thanks a bunch!

Hey
This update contains a few fixes for the last few updates.

"Why add trails, work on the editor!!!!"
Art and code are completely different, stopping art from being created wont speed up the code being written.

It’s hard to balance what we work on and with 3 devs (1 learning code) it takes some time to add and fix everything, we are trying our best and appreciate the patience.

We won't stop until we believe the game is up to the community standard.

Thanks!

Quick Update
Hey all we thought it would be a good idea to give everyone an update so it doesn’t seem like the game is dead.

We are currently working on a ton of stuff such as offline mode, Hats, level editor and more as most of you are aware we are a 3 person team so things do take longer ( Mazaski is also learning code to help wheel who is the main programmer ). We would have had an update out with a lot of bug fixes, slight changes to maps, pars, AND HATS! But we are currently waiting on the green light for hats to be available on steam which might take some time.

Again I’d like to thank everyone for the amazing support and we know early access can be a tedious and annoying phase for video games but I assure you we will not bail on the game, Even once out of early access and completed we plan to keep adding themes and other fun content to the game. We are also gamers and know how devastating it is when a game just goes quiet and eventually gets left behind by the developers.
This is another reason why we haven’t gone towards releasing on console just yet (If we ever do), we would like to complete the game and provide more than enough content for the price of the game. Then we will work towards console, Even I’d love to have the game on console.
To make up for how quiet we have been ill share some secret images of upcoming items :) and yes the rarer items are animated.

After hats there will be trails, skins and boats/Floaties.


Cheers everyone.

Update: Fixed Forest lighting issue and Lobby password join issue

First off, sorry you have to deal with this.

Currently we are unsure why some people are having their games crash.
After a lot of testing we have not yet found a cause.

I will be updating a branch called crashtesting found in the betas tab in the games settings, if you can test that and give me the results, it will help us greatly.

Some things you can try:
Update Windows
Update Graphics
Run Steam as admin
Verify game files
Restart

Im trying to work out whats causing this issue, it seems to affect windows 10 more so than any other but because all our systems run fine I dont have a computer to troubleshoot.

If you could send any crash reports to blacklightinteractive@hotmail.com
Along with:
Operating system.
32 or 64 bit

If anything works for you, please let us know here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/431240/discussions/0/357287935540516933

Again, real sorry guys.
Im trying my best, thank you for your patience.

Attention: Some settings will be wiped when you first launch the game.

Today we are releasing our third level twilight.
We still have work to do and lighting to fix but ill update in a few days with fixes for the current lighting and issues you guys bring up.

Due to trademark limitations and conflicts, we are starting the process to change the game name from "GOLF WITH FRIENDS" to "GOLF WITH YOUR FRIENDS".

This is completely out of our control. To limit the negative effects of a name change we have kept it as close to the original as possible.

Over the next few days we will be making changes to the game and our respective social media networks.
This will set back our development but we can’t avoid it.

Please dont suggest additional names, this is the most logical for our situation.
Everything else will stay the same, there will just be a name change.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Sorry guys no level update yet, Just another hotfix.

I have created vibration/bouncing coping methods for the game.
This should remove any instances of Infinite bounce and prevent the slow roll of death. Let me know if you come across any weirdness and ill get it fixed right away.

[Fixed] Bouncing issues
[Fixed] Slow rolling issues

[Adjusted] Bouncy ground levels. Adding the bouncy ground modifier is now a lot more fun.

Note: There maybe some slight slow rolling on very low angles, ill continue to work these out. They are a side effect from stopping the ball.

Small update to fix some issues with physics and network.

[Fixed] Network issues
[Fixed] Physics issues

Please let us know what you think.

Sorry for the late update.

This update should fix the out of bounds and bouncing glitches.
We tested this but cant fully know until we have people test for us.
Please let us know if you still have these issues.

Physics has also changed.

We have also been at work on a 4th map, using assets from forest to speed up the map creation process.
