This course is another terrific CGX offering. However, on the 14th green I get multi-colored rods of light surrounding the television tower. But, only at certain angles.

Since it's only at 1 or 2 specific angles it's not that big of a deal, but maybe it's happened before and there's a fix somewhere.

So I ran a test based on your tip and the extended lines are a function of putting grid over-run. Many thanks Mike, cheers.

It's an unfortunate side effect of the custom objects in TW08.

If you set them up as solid objects in the library creator, they render as very dark or black in the game.

If you tweak a few settings in the library creator, you can trick the game into thinking the objects are actually tree leaves or part of the landscape and it will light them properly (like the tv tower in your pic). But this means the game does weird things, like place the putting grid on things it shouldn't because it thinks it's part of the ground.

It's an annoyance, for sure. Best any designer can do is try to keep objects away from the immediate area around the greens, but that's not always possible.
