Need some help here. I have Windows 7 64 bit and I can play the game fine, but when I use the Course Architect and try to compile, the compile screen hangs at the point shown in the below pic. I have tried running in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2 and disabled desktop composition and desktop themes. Anyone know anything else to try?
Thanks in advance.
Steve |

"]Hey Steve,

Thanks for that, Boze. Actually, I already did. According tho the article, you must have either Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate to be able to take advantage of that. I have Windows Home Premium. No way I am paying $199 to upgrade - lol. I will just keep my dual boot with XP as the 2nd OS and use it when I need to compile a course. It will be a pain, but I can manage. Unless someone comes up with a way . . . .
And Axe - NO, I am not working on a new course - lol. I have just been busy installing all my software onto Windows 7 and trying it all out. So far, compiling in the CA is the ONLY thing that has not functioned correctly!!!

| Did some more experimentation. Seems I can compile using Windows 7 but only if there are no objects on the course. Hmmmm . . . . . |

Yea, I think I remember compiling without tree lighting checked, was the only way it worked for me. The plantation did all sorts of strange things as in blocked out, disappear, then re-appear when I went to hit the ball lol. I just gave up with windows 7 for that..
Steve, if you figure out away, Please let us know! ; ) |

Got the software installed and am able to run XP inside of Windows 7 through it. Later I will install CA and try making a simple course with lots of objects to see if it compiles correctly. Will get back to you . . . . . . .
later that same evening . . . .
Okay, got everything working. The only thing is that it is on a virtual drive which is invisible to the Windows 7 OS and the normal hard drives are invisible to the Virtual Box XP OS. So yes, I can create a course and compile it using this software while still running my Windows 7 but then I would need to burn it to a CD so I could use it on the other OS. I tried using a thumb drive, but the virtual box does not see it, either. If I could get that working then it would be a good way to go. I will keep looking at it to see if there is a way to get a flash drive to work. |
