StormGolf73 i know you have the rmotion; i just got the full version. I followed the instructions but seems like the userid keeps going back to my actual name. Were the instructions on here the same for the r-motion. I am about to start my q-school rounds and want to make sure i have shot recording on. In the settings this seems to be saving, any thoughts?
How to turn on SHOT RECORDING

You change your name in TGC (edit player). The name shown in your settings file is your registration name and can not be changed.

I had everything working in January and played a few tour events. My computer died and I just rebuilt it, have everything working again except shot recording. I've followed the first 5 steps, but no new shots are being recorded. Did something get messed up when I rebuilt my computer?

Got it working. On the TGC screen with Settings/Server/Start Game/etc. there is a button called 'My Profile'. On that screen I had to enter my Tour Nickname (Abirdie4me). I guess that was erased when I did the reinstall. Looks like I'm ready to rejoin the Tour after 3 months away from golf...big numbers ahead for a while!

I can see my name under "net" on the fall tour but not under gross, is there something I am doing wrong.
Due to the visibility when I first was entering my name on the projector to fix the initial issue I could not see that I had caps on, and my name was dtRAIN24 instead of DTrain24, so maybe thats caused an issue?
Thanks for the help

Hi, sorry for the question but in the settings file there is a field 'User Name' which for me is my full name (Alan Chatfield).
I also have a TGC Nickname, not sure where I entered that, I think on a TGC website? In any case, I'm pretty sure my TGC Nickname is AlanC.
I set my Shot recording to ON (Shot Recording=ON in settings file) & copied my User ID (i.e the XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX format ID) into the TGC User-ID field on my profile here,
what I'm not sure about is if I should change my User Name in the settings file from Alan Chatfield to AlanC (the field in the settings file doesn't say 'User Nickname' but I have a feeling, also from reading some posts n here that it may need to be the nickname to match what I have entered here in my profile settings, which asks for a TGC Nickname & not a TGC User Name).
Please could someone advise whether I should also change my TGC User Name in the settings file to my TGC Nickname?
many thanks,
Alan
P.S. I haven't hit any shots yet but will do that this afternoon but did check and couldn't find myself on here after entering my TGC user ID & Nickname in my profile, thought I might but now wondering if a) it takes a bit of time to appear, b) I need to hit some shots first or c) the User Name in the settings file needs to match the TGC Nickname

I just set up my account. When I first set it up, I used the TGC nickname "Joe". That is obviously too common a name. I changed it to "mitch1588." When I look at my recorded shots on golfsimulatortours.com, the shot are being recorded, but they are under the tour player name "Joe" with the TGC nickname "mitch1588". Can this be fixed so the tour player name and TGC nickname are the same ("mitch1588")
Never mind. Everything is working now. Patience is a virtue.Last edited by mitch1588; 10-30-2018, 02:30 PM.

HELP! I followed the directions, but shot recording does not seem to be working. I played a round of q-school but shows no shot recording! My TGC user nickname is Swiggs. I feel like I have quadruple checked everything! Hopefully this can get resolved so I can play another round of Q school! Thanks!

Here are the instructions from the first page of this thread and what I have done:
Play at least 1 live tournament event or official Q-School event in order for your tournament user profile to be created on golfsimulatortours.com .
I went to the Tournament section of TGC and played 2 rounds of Bethpage yesterday, 1 round of Magnolia today. Should this qualify for shot recording or do I need to play the other 2 rounds of Magnolia for my shots to start showing up?
1] Turn on Shot Recording by changing Shot Recording=OFF to Shot Recording=ON. Save the file. Did this prior to playing the above rounds
2] Copy the USER ID. Did this prior to playing the above rounds
3] Edit your Forum user profile and paste the USER ID in the field: TGC User ID. Did this prior to playing the above rounds
4] Edit the field TGC Nickname in your forum user profile. Make sure its EXACTLY the same as the nickname you use in TGC (case sensitive). Did this prior to playing the above rounds (nickname is "MarkO")
5] Save you forum profile and hit a couple of test shots on a random course.
I cannot sign into the "Tournaments" section of the forum, and my nickname does not show up under Tour Players so I cannot find my shots. When I click "sign in" it just kicks me back to the regular forum (on a new web page).
Question: Does my forum name (currently SMO) need to be the same as my TGC nickname (currently MarkO)? If so this is the problem. Or maybe I am such a lousy golfer I don't qualify to be a "Tour Player"?

Your shot recording is on. There’s recorded shots under your name. It’s better if both names are the sameOriginally posted by SMO View PostHere are the instructions from the first page of this thread and what I have done:

Hi
how can you tell if shot recording is setup properly?
read the instructions many times, thought I had set it up correctly, but appears I didn't.
tgc player name (in Tgc) entered into forum profile (under Tgc nickname) and Tgc user id (xxxx-xxxx etc from Tgc settings file) entered into the forum profile (under Tgc user id)
Seeing my name in the tour players directory but getting errors when I try to click on it to drill down.
Seeing my scores for last two tour events and can see my scores for two q-school rounds I did today (did things a little backward, tried a couple of tour events before starting q-school)
thanks
