Next issue...my sand bunkers. The ball bounces off of them as if they're just a part of the fairway. I've made them bunkers, so they've got the depth. Is it the type of sand I selected, or am I forgetting to do something needed to make them actually act like sand?

Thanks!

You need to make sure it is sand. Not all sand is created equal lol

Perhaps selecting a texture defined as "sand" is not what you really want. Try selecting a texture designated as "bunker" from a stock course.

Ok, I'll give that a shot. I just presumed that either "sand" or "bunker" type would be essentially the same...in other words, I just figured that the individual "texture creators" named them differently for no real reason.

Ok, I just checked and it was a bunker type (specifically "bunker 4xdp (shannon tex)").

So I'm still confused.

Try one of the stock textures like Cog Hill or Firestone or TPC Boston, etc.

If I remember correctly Sand has a different color text. Or it could have been path, unplayable and playable textures that have colored text.
