  • Skytrak and E6 (demo)

    Been testing the Skytrak with E6. Connection is easily done through wifi. Bill data is measured and fed to E6 using its algo's. Delay is about 3 seconds. Probably ok with most folks but those that expect it immediate may be annoyed. They are working on improving the shot to show time. Chipping works fine. No putting as of yet. One thing that is critical is having the unit exactly aligned to the target line. If off it will affect the horizontal azimuth. Right now they don't have the alignment assist option available within E6 but I suggest they allow it to make it easier to align. Overall however it works fine.

      I am using an old laptop to run E6 and I would say it was a 2-3 second delay. A lot faster than WGT.

            Ryan,
            Have you done the PC beta upgrade? I have not and am wondering whether or not i will have to do it before trying to play E6 demo.

            I just played 18 holes!!!!!!
            It was awesome.
            This worked for me using E6 Demo 1.6
            Had issues with shots 25ft and under off the green - a lot didn't register.
            Putting worked with 4 or 5 unregistered shots though.

            Awesome.

              What were your thoughts on the distances of clubs? I knocked a couple drives 300yards(usually 265 outside), but did have the wind at my back.

              I only have room to hit 2HY down.
              I played without wind and the 4i was averaging 205 carry. The 2HY was around 215-220 i think. So fairly close i reckon.
              I did have issues on the lower end though (always seem to be 7-10 yards shot on the 9i and PW compared to real life with the iPad App too)

              Yep - all 18.
              I have a GTX680 and it was very nice. I rushed downstairs to try it out so didn't mess with settings as I had to get back to the grind, but will check later on the graphics bit.

            Can you do multiple players or is it limited to one player only?

              I only see an option to play local like if 4 friends were over the 4 of you can play you and I can't play against each other.

                I didn't need a USB driver. Make sure your Skytrack is on before you connect to PC and it should pick it up

                I'm only able to play the first hole. After I finish the hole it resets to the first tee again. When I try to 'Advance to next hole' in the options, again it goes back to the first tee.

                I'm also not getting any sound from the demo and am unable to find any settings to alter graphics.

                Any help would be appreciated.

                  I had the same problem with the 1st tee. i closed out of the program and went back in without any issues.

                  OPTIONS CLICK THE HOLE YOU WANT THE BOXES CORRESPONDING TO THE NEXT HOLE YOU WANT. 1 is 1, 13, is 13, etc... It takes a few seconds but works.

                It's clear that somebody messed up something somewhere. So get it while you can since there's no way Skytrak will allow this to continue considering that you can play it without the GI package.

                  I can confirm it worked for me, I do not have the SkyTrak PC Beta installed or firmware update, for me to get it to work, I had to connect the SkyTrak with usb to my laptop OFF, then turn it ON after I opened E6. I did record some footage with both my shot footage and the E6 gameplay footage, I'll try to upload it to YouTube later today.

                  I did have the program crash a couple times, and another issue I had was when I wanted to putt on the fringe, I couldn't, it registered as an iron shot.

                    I noticed that when I had E6 open and running after playing a couple holes. I didn't CTL ALT Delete and I saw a CMD prompt up with ball metric. I am not a scientist so I don't actually know what any of if it means anything at all
