Ok, can I have some help, please.

I understand why the MyZip feature is not working. I do intend on helping out with a donation soon, cause this site is quickly becoming important to me. However on a strict budget its hard to donate right now but I do intend to budget in for it shortly.

Now in the mean time, what do I need to do to install a course. Currently I want to install Summerlin. I've downloaded all the necessary files, the course and all associated libraries. They all downloaded as individual zip folders. My question is what is the next step? Do I unzip the folders and zip up everything together? Or do I simply zip up all the zip folders and open it with the Caddie?

Thank you in advance for any help.

My personal rule for putting: If it looks straight, shoot it straight- 7 times out of 10, itll go in. However if there is any contour at all- screw it, itll be a 2 putt Par :D

a myzip file by any other name is a zip file

check the help guide included
myzip and zip files are handled the same

click on one, drag and select several, highlight one and use shift and mouse click to select additional ones

Hi......
First find a custom course you want to download.

On top of the course page you will see: Download
On download page you will find the course file+ all required libraries.
You will have to download the course file+ all required libraries .
(;Download course + all required libraries to any location on your PC, but NOT in TW08 game )

To download the course file:
On left side click text: Coursedownloads.net.... and download to your PC

To download all required libraries:
On right side click on each library name (; text) and download to your PC

When you downloaded course+libraries it is time to install course + libraries in TW08 with automatic installer: TWCaddie08
On your desktop click the shortcut: TWCaddie08
And now on right side choose: Install
In next popup screen you will have to browse to/find the downloaded libraries+course zip files
When you found it....dubble click one of the library zip files and library will be installed in TW08 game .Do the same for all other library zip files and they will be installed in TW08.
At last dubble click the course file...and course will be installed in TW08.
Note: it is important you first install the libraries and at last the course file.The course file is the one with the highest number.

Important: You have to download the libraries only once. When you want to install other courses that are using the same libraries, you don t have to download and install the same libraries again.

Success!! Thanks again. I had turned on my True admin account on Vista the other day so I had to redo a bunch of stuff to get access to the Caddie program but I had no problem installing Summerlin, after that. Thank you.
