  • GCQuad with TGC up and running

    I listed the steps I took to get this thing going. I just got done playing a round at a famous course down South where a big tourney was supposed to be held this weekend.

    Step 1: Buy this: https://golfsimulatorstore.com/colle...13246583636067 - this part is a pain because you need to install protee and TGC and wait for all your licenses to come via email.

    Step 2: Configure protee as instructed in other posts. Basically - you need to just change 1 setting to configure it to external data

    Step 3: Install GQSX.com - pm me if you need this

    Step 4: Connect the Quad to the computer via wifi

    Step 5: Connect to internet either via ethernet cable or another wifi card and bridge connections - this allows to connect to internet and qcquad at the same time

    Step 6: Launch Protee then GQSX (click on connect) then start TGC

    It should now work. No needing all that other stuff like you do for the GC2.

    Can't you disable it? For instance, I noticed in the GQSX interface, there is a checkbox for "club". Assuming that means club data.

      From the previous posts, it can be disabled, and it reduces the delay. I want to see how it performs with the lower delay. I have used TGC with my GC2 and the delay is significant. I now have a GCQ and am considering TGC2019, but the delay is one of my concerns. Since getting FSX2020 I really appreciate the low delay but the graphics aren’t great and paying for courses isn’t either. I’m considering paying the $2500 for E6, but if TGC2019 performs comparably, the upgrade cost is much lower, albeit with some risk of not working.

        Ah, I see.

        but let me ask. Why even want club data while playing TGC2019? In the post shot screen where it shows the shot data, would that info come from the Quad club data? Or is that still TGC’s algorithm?

        When watching live streams of guys playing with GC2, I notice they have this little window on the screen which I assume is the interface which shows shot data (including club data) but don’t see that on the quad interface.

        • For me, I use TGC for sim play and the shot delay is completely unnoticeable.

          I do select club data on GQSX, but that’s just a habit as I don’t believe it’s displaying on the shot data screen on TGC (seems like its inferred from the ball data and club selection).

          I saw above that there might be another option to select in TGC to display club from the Quad, but if it causes a delay then I wouldn’t bother with it. All the club data is right there on the Quad screen.

          • The delay is almost nothing but if club data is on it’s 2 seconds, maybe 3. It’s horrible and it just gives you the data that is on the screen of the quad.

            • I was able to find a few videos online, the delay looks acceptable for sure.

              • When you start fsx do you actually connect to the quad? If so is it connected via WiFi like the connection to gsx and tgc?

                  PC will often auto connect to Quad wifi on startup, otherwise manually. Then just startup FSX.

                  TGC simply requires a few extra mouse clicks.

                  I get TGC working by starting ProTee first (Be sure that external data is selected in settings), then GQSX (In GQSX I will hit the connect button and wait until all three turn green). I then start FSX2020 (I immediately minimize it without doing anything once it loads), I then start TGC 2019 and everything works for me!

              • Just bought a gc quad. Want to make sure that tgc 19 works with gqsx can someone confirm it works before I buy the program?

                  Presumably you also got FSX2020? TGC will work as long as you fire up FSX first.

                Its working if FSX runs first. Will that change with a new firmware? I don't know.

                • I originally bought my version of TGC 2019 for my skytrak. I am currently selling the skytrak and bought a GCQ. Is there going to be much to do besides download the GQSX file? Not sure if there is anything else I'll need to do as I'm using the same gaming computer to run the GCQ and TGC 2019 is already installed on there.
                  Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, please feel free to message me directly if preferred.

                    Pretty certain you will need to contact protee to get a different user key for the GCQ even with the software being on the same computer. You may or may not have to pay a transfer fee. Also, do you have FSX, it looks like it's needed if the GCQ has been updated to the latest firmware.

                • I answered my own questions LOL. ProTee said I just have to pay the $100 transfer fee when transferring from one piece of hardware to another.

                    Random Question: How long did it take for you to receive the Quad after ordering it?

                      • I got mine in 6 days. Bought the par package.

                        • This is pretty interesting. I was "this" close to buying a GC2 today, (I even have the invoice from Foresight). I like the GCQuad better, but want to play TGC with my friends. This has me completely second guessing. With this, any reason I shouldn't upgrade to the GCQuad? Any input is appreciated.
