The 3 stickers on club, I guess I have missed something I have the single sticker is this something new to help the monitor? TY love your videos helped me out alot on my simulator.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos I have the GC3 you answered it for me, I never looked into the Quad I was thinking same dot for it as well. Thank you for clearing that one up for me.
As someone who uses it primarily for coaching I love using the chipping green for full shots as well as short game. I’ve found though when I choose a short location such as on the other side of the water to the back left pin it’s very difficult to return back to a position where we can hit straight in 150 yard shots for example. If you simply choose a yardage it takes you back on the direct line as your previous shot and not back down the fairway from the original location. . It would be nice to have a reset button that sets you back to the original start location instead of trying to slowly pick your way back there using the mini map or restarting the session altogether.
Our local place just switched over to FSX Play this week. Definitely looks great, but lacking some features 2020 had. We play a weekly 4 person league. The mini map used to show your ball when you hit and you could get a good look at where it was headed because the camera angle is too zoomed in. The mini map also used to show other players ball locations. This helped with knowing who's shot may be next by quickly looking at the map. After each shot we used to get a shot summary that let you know who was up next as well. These small things would make a big difference for group play! Love the software.
Continuous play Especially if playing with left handed players. Continuous play even if playing right handed players. Auto putt. players /right handed you shouldnt have to swipe up from bottom to change when switching back and forth with left handers. Especially if you signed up fsxlive... Should do it automatically. Players hits.. Show his distance.. But underneath should show whos up next and what there distance to pin is. So we can play faster. Skills competition chip shot kp trouble shots With live leaderboard for you and your friends with points for every shot.. I know you can make your own challenge. But fullswing golf has showdown (there best feature) Mulligan in scramble mode guy hits out of turn 17th hole into water.. Big match... Cant hit mulligan. Thanks Shane Keep up great vids
I also think it would be a good option in on-course practice to be able to set a hole location anywhere on the green as opposed to just the pre set pin location. It doesn’t even need to have in depth hole characteristics, just a target hole you can simply place in a different quadrant of the green to hit shots towards. It can be tough mentally to convince someone to hit shots into an empty section of a green when they see the hole on the other side of the green.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos Yes, moving the pin seems like a very easy and obvious feature that should be included. The other thing that annoys me, and this might help, I want a perfectly flat putting green, or at least the ability to hit 10 foot put with zero break, as far as I can tell, there is no such thing.
Would be nice to be able to choose which side the Minimap & Vertical tiles were on. I am a Right hander and having a limited width with my simulator setup, have an offset within the Room Configurator for GC3 & ball position for alignment & putting. If I could move the Minimap to the LHS, I would have a better view of the target area.
I have to minimize mini-map for every shot because I hit over to the right side of my sim, because of my ceiling constraint. So switching mini-map to the left side would be Amazing!
That was their plan from the beginning. From what I understood most all of the features will be coming and most likely more new features as well. I will be sure to keep everyone as posted as possible. Thanks for watching!
This is a great update. It blends swing analysis into game play which is exactly what I’m looking for. It’s making me think about swapping out my EyeXO for a Quad.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos yes, but not like skills challenge. That's progressive and not really practice. I mean a yardage randomizer. You pick a yardage range, then the system will give you different target distances after each swing. Forces you to switch clubs and refocus on a new yardage after each swing. Best practice you can do. No idea why this isn't a staple in this system.
@@ClintWilber Yeah I guess some might do that, I prefer just practicing one club at a time and I can set whatever yardage I want so I am not always changing clubs during practice. The best for me is finding courses/tees that play similar distances I normal play outdoors and just playing rounds which forces me into so many distances and the most common I would see. But, this could be something they could add I am just not sure how much demand this is for it. This would be the first request I think I have heard for it.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos I understand what you're saying, but practicing one club over and over again is ineffective practice. The best practice is randomizing yardages and having to pull different clubs. That is more realistic to actual gameplay.
I’m trying to be supportive of FSX Play, while the graphics are much improved i still prefer the ease of use of FSX 2020 for practicing and offline competitions In your video of just practicing at Pebble #7 how do display actually distance to pin? Have a few friends with the GC quad we love having par three competitions off-line, but have yet to figure out a way to easily navigate different holes and show actual distance on FSX play
just updated today and from an instructors perspective FSX2020 is still superior in my opinion. This analysis side of the play software has been in the works since I first installed Play in April '22 what took so long? I'm hopeful this side of the software improves but in the meantime I'll stick with 2020. Love the vids keep em coming 👍
Yeah I’m not saying this covers it all, but based on the amount of instructors I hear from that want to use it, hoping as more releases come out they get the full functionality from 2020. Thanks for watching and sharing you thoughts!
I love my quad and have FSX play and 2020. As a coach I prefer the range options and ease of use for 2020 even though the appearance isn’t as good. I’d love to have the 2020 range in play. Also, for as good as play is, and easy to use for those new to sim, I find the GSPro gameplay so much more enjoyable. Perhaps it’s the number of courses? It’s definitely better because of discord and online play.
Yeah, it is all personal preference of course. I know several coaches that like to use the on-course practice of FSX Play, for instance, put a student behind a tree 120yds out from the green and teach them how to hit a push draw hook around the tree. Now they can do that in the new software with the full club data graphical display where they could not before. Once again, software is 100% personal preference, I can't tell you how often someone tells me how one is better than the other, almost ever day! :) Thanks for watching!
@@GolfSimulatorVideos all the software has its uses for sure. I love the auto align of FSX play. I love that you play into the screen whereas GSPro has the ball on the screen already. The versatility of the settings in 2020 so you can change green and wether conditions minutely. I guess I have all bases covered. Thanks for the reply and keep up the good work.
@@GolfTechstudio Yeah the first person view and the ball taking off where it hits the screen is probably one of my favorites for sure. Keep in mind, there are a lot more features coming to FSX Play, this is just another release. The initial plan they told me was to bring most all of the 2020 plus more. Thanks for watching!
@@GolfTechstudio That is my biggest gripe with GSPro (second biggest gripe is the mini map is too small, and not adjustable). I should NOT see the ball on the screen. It should certainly be a toggle option to be able to look at your lie, but when hitting a shot, it makes no sense. The ball is at your feet, not 10 feet in front of you. That said, until scramble mode is working in FSX Play, GSPro is going to be my go to most of the time for full rounds with friends.
Software and hardware needs to be able to automatically switch from righty to lefty based on the player profile. WITH the GCQUAD you have to manually click on lefty or righty once you move the Quad. That’s ridiculous for a $15000 LM. My Skytrak did that automatically.
Nice features, but the real question, did they fix scramble mode with this update? I still use FSX 2020 for practice most of the time, but this might make me switch to FSX play for practice. That said, I do sim nights with friends 2 nights a week, where we usually try to play 36-54 holes. FSX play is completely useless for that without scramble mode, especially when you have people that aren't very good or new to a simulator. They introduced scramble mode in January, but it is completely unplayable. You are randomly required to take a penalty drop for balls in perfect position (on the green or on the fairway). And once you take the drop, it randomly puts your ball at one of the shots you didn't select, sometimes, requiring a second drop if it was a bad shot. We tried it, and I spent the evening apologizing to my friends for software that cost north of 3 grand. Four of us got through 9 holes shooting like a 55 because we had two or more penalty strokes per hole. It was nothing but an exercise in frustration. I ended up subbing to GSPro, and will continue to do so until scramble mode is fixed. I am beyond frustrated with Foresight. I should have bought a BLP instead of the GC3 and just subbed to GSPro. The software in its current state is not worth the money.
Always enjoy your videos. What laptop computer would you recommend to run FSX play? I have an AMD Ryzen 7 processor with a RTX 4060 graphics card. I have been told the AMD processor will not run with FSX Play.
So it’s definitely going to depend on the resolution you’re running. As long as you are running 1080 P that should be plenty. This AMD issue my knowledge from years ago and shouldn’t be a problem any longer. I haven’t verified this myself, but I think they’re going off of old information where the older cards had potential concerns
They never said for sure they were going to do it but said it would be possible now with Unity. I think it’s one of those things where the more people that request at the higher up. The list goes so I would suggest submitting the feedback and having others do the same if they are interested.
Hey mate. Couple questions 1. Did you select what club you were hitting for both shots? I noticed it showed GW and SW for both just wondering if you inputted the club for each shot or the quad somehow picked that up? 2. I’m still having issues where I have to sign in to fsx2020 to do my 30 day online registration and can’t do it on Play. Is that a known issue or something that’s just happening to me? Not a big issue it just gets annoying to do. Good little updates. Always improving. Keep up the videos great work
Yes if you listen in the video, I said I am going to change from GW to SW for the second shot, that is why they are separated. I wanted to show how that works. Not sure about that, I have no issues with the online registration. Have you reached out to support?
I think foresight should try to push a weekly tournament like sgt. And the weekly course should be free to download for that week only. Maybe make it so that course can only be played in the tournament. That way they can still charge the big money for courses, yet us blp users can still play tournaments. Winter tournament leagues imo is the best part of having a simulator. I don’t use fsx because the 10 courses got boring after a week or two. I feel like they are missing out on a huge part of home sim golf. Maybe this is already a feature?? If so, I couldn’t find it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and watching! I think they do allow you to play courses that are in the featured league that week, it started out that way, I will have to double check.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos hmmm. I’ll have to check aswell! If fsxplay does have a tournament, I’d definitely join. I do like that software, and I don’t like using just 1 software. I like switching it up and playing something new.
from an instructors perspective FSX2020 is still far superior in my opinion. This analysis side of the play software has been in the works since I first installed Play in April '22 what took so long? I'm hopeful this side of the software improves but in the meantime I'll stick with 2020. It would be nice to be able to move the aim line for right and left handed golfers like in 2020 fsx.
I know they said they place on brining most of lot all of the 2020 features over and hopefully all of what everyone needs can be implemented soon. Thanks for sharing your feedback.
have gc hawk want to add swing cameras what is the best one we are a retail simulator spot want to know if its worth to get the club data or is there a camera or another software we can add and use that for the club data instead of the stickers kinda a pain to have customers put the stickers on when they come in
When you teach with force plates you can not move the aim line for left or right golfers. My FSXPro has the same issues. Hit 1 shot and the aim line goes back to Center. Given up on pro and play. Support doesn’t know what is going on.
Why doesn’t FSX play have a swing camera? Also, when will FSX Play integrate a swing cam!?!? Ideally, FSX Play should allow native integration to use a mobile phone/device via usb/wi-fi as a swing camera. The IVCam app enables me to use my iPhone Camera via wifi as a swing cam in FSX 2020, but it limits me to 60 fps; even though my iPhone pro max can shoot 1080p at 240 fps. This feature would be excellent for game improvement! Thanks
For those of you who use FSX play regularly, how are the bugs? I’m in the market and have heard of people not using FSX play because of all the bugs. Thanks!
This latest release seems to be very stable and also moves through the menus faster than the previous one. But I also don't get to play as much as other users, so I will let them chime in if they are seeing any in this latest release. Thanks for watching!
I still run into quite a few bugs with league, the new closest to hole online multiplayer, and scramble. Some aren’t the end of the world but some simply don’t work at all. Support has been non responsive to the bugs I submitted last update. My friend is purchasing full swing after playing here due to all the kinks we run into but if you are just playing by yourself or practicing like this video, there aren’t any issues at all.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos do they have a formal bug submission program or is it just submitting tickets online? Fsx pay has a ton of potential but bugs are killer for people looking to host tourneys or do competitive things, especially when entry fees are involved
@@travisnelson8011 you can email them to me and I can get them into the developers hands. The feedback is important for sure and hopefully they can get a bug reporting tool in the software. Try to include detail or even screenshots if you can. My email is a98cr125@gmail.com
I have the most recent update but cannot figure out how to skip a player as you mentioned. All I see is “skip hole” and takes the entire group to the next hole. If anyone knows, please advise. Thanks.
All of these FSX Play enhancements are just as shown. There are other performance and bug fixes but nothing changed to the main platform of graphics/textures. That major change came from 2020 to Play. Thanks for watching.
So they state the required is 3060 or optimal 3070ti. If you are running 1080 P resolution, I would think it could handle it. You are definitely going to be on the borderline based on their stated specs. Prices are definitely coming down on GPUs, so maybe it’s an opportunity to get something slightly better?
Any idea if analysis changes will come to fsx 2020 or are they pretty much done there? Even showing the number of shots with a club is a huge improvement (and a giant miss to not have in the first place tbh)
I can't imagine them putting out additional features for 2020 at this stage. I am sure the resources are going towards Play. But if you like 2020 more than play for some reason, share why and maybe they can get those features to Play soon so you can just be using it.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos I think Play looks terrific, but I don't have the computing power to take advantage right now so it would be throwing a lot of money at an upgrade, and 2020 is still a terrific product overall
@@PJo336 Ahh, gotcha. Well good news is GPU prices are falling fast! Maybe you can snag a 3080 or something soon and you will be good! I think even my 3090 full 4k 60 with recording running pushes the GPU a bit.
Hey Jay, can you provide instructions or offer any help for me to be able to get the latest version of FSX Play? I believe I’m still running the older version and I’d like to upgrade to the latest. TIA
Sure it’s easy. Just go to this page and go to the download link and install. It’s a blue button. www.foresightsports.com/fsx-play-download-and-installation
1 year later and still the same problems of no dual screens in FSX play. FSX Pro target line is a joke still. Since 2002 have not done a single lesson with this junk of a software. So disappointed with the software side of Foresight Sports.
I'm looking at "upgrading" my Mevo Plus to a GC3. However the inability to play a round on either an Apple laptop or IOS device is a deal breaker. Not everyone has or wants a PC. I'd be very interested if they provided support for FSX Play on any apple devices. Any word yet on whether that will happen and if so the potential timing?
So I know that some people having been using a Mac with either the latest ability to run APPs and/or bootcamp/parallels. I have not tested it myself but many have said they did it and it worked.
Make a fast play option. When we want to play quick we dont want to watch the whole ball flight and roll out. Make it so we hit, the ball lands and stops in a few seconds. We’re trying to rip through 18 holes before our wives tell us to come home.
Interesting I’ve never really had anybody say they didn’t want to watch the ballflight. I’m not sure if there’s enough demand for something like that, but I know that some software out there allows you to press space bar to fast-forward the shot. So it’s definitely something they might be able to add.

@@GolfSimulatorVideos I have the GC3 you answered it for me, I never looked into the Quad I was thinking same dot for it as well. Thank you for clearing that one up for me.
One feature I really wanted FSX Play to have is the dual screen mode just like FSX2020. I've just kind of given up with FSX play because of this.
I think that is a good suggestion that I’m assuming is coming but good to remind them of for sure. Thanks for watching!
Yes dual screen is long overdue. FSX Play and FSX Pro are not a patch on FSX 2020 when it comes to functionality when teaching.
As someone who uses it primarily for coaching I love using the chipping green for full shots as well as short game. I’ve found though when I choose a short location such as on the other side of the water to the back left pin it’s very difficult to return back to a position where we can hit straight in 150 yard shots for example.

Our local place just switched over to FSX Play this week. Definitely looks great, but lacking some features 2020 had. We play a weekly 4 person league. The mini map used to show your ball when you hit and you could get a good look at where it was headed because the camera angle is too zoomed in.

After each shot we used to get a shot summary that let you know who was up next as well. These small things would make a big difference for group play! Love the software.
Continuous play
Especially if playing with left handed players.

Skills competition chip shot kp trouble shots
With live leaderboard for you and your friends with points for every shot.. I know you can make your own challenge. But fullswing golf has showdown (there best feature)
Mulligan in scramble mode guy hits out of turn 17th hole into water.. Big match... Cant hit mulligan.

Most important thing is to be able to track performance and areas of strengths and weaknesses over time to work on.

It will be for GC3 too, but of course will only show the club data provided by GC3. Thanks for watching
Software and hardware needs to be able to automatically switch from righty to lefty based on the player profile. WITH the GCQUAD you have to manually click on lefty or righty once you move the Quad. That’s ridiculous for a $15000 LM. My Skytrak did that automatically.
You should be able to enter the dexterity for each user during the round set up. Let me know if that doesn’t work, but it should.

Not the exact same but it’s nice. It’s called the Foresight Sports Practice Facility in the course list.

I think foresight should try to push a weekly tournament like sgt. And the weekly course should be free to download for that week only. Maybe make it so that course can only be played in the tournament. That way they can still charge the big money for courses, yet us blp users can still play tournaments.
Winter tournament leagues imo is the best part of having a simulator.
I don’t use fsx because the 10 courses got boring after a week or two. I feel like they are missing out on a huge part of home sim golf.
Maybe this is already a feature?? If so, I couldn’t find it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and watching! I think they do allow you to play courses that are in the featured league that week, it started out that way, I will have to double check.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos hmmm. I’ll have to check aswell! If fsxplay does have a tournament, I’d definitely join. I do like that software, and I don’t like using just 1 software. I like switching it up and playing something new.
from an instructors perspective FSX2020 is still far superior in my opinion. This analysis side of the play software has been in the works since I first installed Play in April '22 what took so long? I'm hopeful this side of the software improves but in the meantime I'll stick with 2020. It would be nice to be able to move the aim line for right and left handed golfers like in 2020 fsx.
I know they said they place on brining most of lot all of the 2020 features over and hopefully all of what everyone needs can be implemented soon. Thanks for sharing your feedback.
I would like to see the green heat map on the mini map
I agree, I think it could be useful as should be easy to implement. Thanks for watching and sharing
Can you take practice shots around the actual green on that hole?
In practice mode you can.
have gc hawk want to add swing cameras what is the best one we are a retail simulator spot want to know if its worth to get the club data or is there a camera or another software we can add and use that for the club data instead of the stickers kinda a pain to have customers put the stickers on when they come in
I can explain the options and share some information and discount codes with you via email. Feel free to email me at: a98cr125@gmail.com
When you teach with force plates you can not move the aim line for left or right golfers. My FSXPro has the same issues. Hit 1 shot and the aim line goes back to Center. Given up on pro and play. Support doesn’t know what is going on.
Why doesn’t FSX play have a swing camera? Also, when will FSX Play integrate a swing cam!?!? Ideally, FSX Play should allow native integration to use a mobile phone/device via usb/wi-fi as a swing camera. The IVCam app enables me to use my iPhone Camera via wifi as a swing cam in FSX 2020, but it limits me to 60 fps; even though my iPhone pro max can shoot 1080p at 240 fps. This feature would be excellent for game improvement! Thanks
I think they wanted to focus on the simulation and data aspect so they partnered with Swing Catalyst to handle swing camera recording.
Is there a way to change the view on FSX Play so it doesn’t follow the ball at all or at least delay the follow?
There are different settings for the ball flight.
Do you know if this update is valid for Bushnell Launch Pro?
This update should be valid for any compatible launch monitor. Just download and run the new installer. Thanks for watching!
Where can I get set up instructions for SIM-IN A -BOX PLAY? Just bought one and it doesn't have instructions
.
You should have received an email with everything. Who did you purchase from?
I have a video showing how I assembled everything. It should be pretty helpful.
For those of you who use FSX play regularly, how are the bugs? I’m in the market and have heard of people not using FSX play because of all the bugs. Thanks!
This latest release seems to be very stable and also moves through the menus faster than the previous one. But I also don't get to play as much as other users, so I will let them chime in if they are seeing any in this latest release. Thanks for watching!
I still run into quite a few bugs with league, the new closest to hole online multiplayer, and scramble. Some aren’t the end of the world but some simply don’t work at all. Support has been non responsive to the bugs I submitted last update. My friend is purchasing full swing after playing here due to all the kinks we run into but if you are just playing by yourself or practicing like this video, there aren’t any issues at all.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos do they have a formal bug submission program or is it just submitting tickets online? Fsx pay has a ton of potential but bugs are killer for people looking to host tourneys or do competitive things, especially when entry fees are involved
@@travisnelson8011 you can email them to me and I can get them into the developers hands. The feedback is important for sure and hopefully they can get a bug reporting tool in the software. Try to include detail or even screenshots if you can. My email is a98cr125@gmail.com
which connection method is the best? usb connection or wifi direct?
I always run USB. It’s just easy and never a worry about a solid connection.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos Thanks for reply :) I just got my new GC3 today and will run after work. I will try USB.
Thanks!
I have the most recent update but cannot figure out how to skip a player as you mentioned. All I see is “skip hole” and takes the entire group to the next hole. If anyone knows, please advise. Thanks.
You should be able just to click on the player name in the upper left
Having issues w fsx play finding (reading )my ball..sometimes works sometimes doesn’t….always works in 2020…any thoughts… the gc3 reads it fine
Sounds like possibly a connection issue. Try Wi-Fi vs USB etc. Are you on the latest firmware for gc3 and latest FSX Play version shown here?
@@GolfSimulatorVideos
will try both of those ...thank u
Does this just add functionality to FSX, or is it also an upgrade to any graphics in the courses?
All of these FSX Play enhancements are just as shown. There are other performance and bug fixes but nothing changed to the main platform of graphics/textures. That major change came from 2020 to Play. Thanks for watching.
Will FSX Play run on a laptop with the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti?
So they state the required is 3060 or optimal 3070ti. If you are running 1080 P resolution, I would think it could handle it. You are definitely going to be on the borderline based on their stated specs. Prices are definitely coming down on GPUs, so maybe it’s an opportunity to get something slightly better?
@@GolfSimulatorVideos Thanks for the quick response!
Any idea if analysis changes will come to fsx 2020 or are they pretty much done there? Even showing the number of shots with a club is a huge improvement (and a giant miss to not have in the first place tbh)
I can't imagine them putting out additional features for 2020 at this stage. I am sure the resources are going towards Play. But if you like 2020 more than play for some reason, share why and maybe they can get those features to Play soon so you can just be using it.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos I think Play looks terrific, but I don't have the computing power to take advantage right now so it would be throwing a lot of money at an upgrade, and 2020 is still a terrific product overall
@@PJo336 Ahh, gotcha. Well good news is GPU prices are falling fast! Maybe you can snag a 3080 or something soon and you will be good! I think even my 3090 full 4k 60 with recording running pushes the GPU a bit.
Hey Jay, can you provide instructions or offer any help for me to be able to get the latest version of FSX Play? I believe I’m still running the older version and I’d like to upgrade to the latest. TIA
Sure it’s easy. Just go to this page and go to the download link and install. It’s a blue button.

1 year later and still the same problems of no dual screens in FSX play. FSX Pro target line is a joke still. Since 2002 have not done a single lesson with this junk of a software. So disappointed with the software side of Foresight Sports.
I'm looking at "upgrading" my Mevo Plus to a GC3. However the inability to play a round on either an Apple laptop or IOS device is a deal breaker. Not everyone has or wants a PC. I'd be very interested if they provided support for FSX Play on any apple devices. Any word yet on whether that will happen and if so the potential timing?
So I know that some people having been using a Mac with either the latest ability to run APPs and/or bootcamp/parallels. I have not tested it myself but many have said they did it and it worked.
Make a fast play option. When we want to play quick we dont want to watch the whole ball flight and roll out. Make it so we hit, the ball lands and stops in a few seconds. We’re trying to rip through 18 holes before our wives tell us to come home.
Interesting I’ve never really had anybody say they didn’t want to watch the ballflight. I’m not sure if there’s enough demand for something like that, but I know that some software out there allows you to press space bar to fast-forward the shot. So it’s definitely something they might be able to add.
