VI.  Running Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001 in 3D Acceleration
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001 supports both 2D and 3D accelerated video drivers.
You will be prompted to select a video card driver and resolution at the end of each install. You can also change video card settings at your preference by selecting START\PROGRAMS\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001\3D Setup.

If you are having problems running the game with 3D acceleration, we recommend you download the latest video card driver. Contact your computer manufacturer for assistance. Also, we recommend reinstalling DirectX 7.0a.

When running Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001 in 3D acceleration, the game automatically detects your video card and select settings for Terrain and Object detail.  Depending on your computer's processor, RAM, and video card, you can increase the Terrain and Object detail within 3D Options in the front end of the game. Note: by changing default settings for Terrain and Object detail, you may experience 3D rendering problems as well as long load times between holes. 

In addition, if you decide to either change Fog, Terrain Detail, and\or Object Detail, you will be prompted to restart the game. The game CD needs to be your computer in order to complete the rendering process.  As you attempt to run the game at a display resolution higher than 1024x768, be sure your video card and monitor can support 3D acceleration at this resolution. Please consult with you computer and monitor manufacturer for hardware limitations. If you experience problems running the game at a high resolution, we recommend that you run the game at 800x600. You can change game resolution within the Option Menu located in the front end of Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001. Note to Voodoo 2 video card owners: We recommend that you run the game no higher than 800X600.

VII.  Reinstalling DirectX

IX.  Using Pro Swing and other game related issues
--------------------------------------------------
Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001's Pro Swing calibration is based on your current mouse setting in Windows 95/98. While calibrating Pro Swing in the game, you may experience difficulties adjusting the mouse movement as you attempt to hit the contact line. To make additional adjustment, exit the game and change the motion under Mouse Properties (located in the Control Panel). 

Note: It is designed that the contact line is removed for Pro level golfer settings.

Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001 saves your game settings into a file called Lastgame.dat located in C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001. The game will reset to its default settings if you delete this file. 

Before you begin running the game, you should end task all running programs and applications that are in the background. Any reminder applications that pop up windows to the front at regular or scheduled times may cause interruptions while playing.  

You will need the game CD to start the game. Once the game is loaded, you can remove the game CD. This is effective if you want to play a LAN game with one CD or music CDs in the game.

We strongly recommend that users do not ALT-TAB or run memory-intensive programs in the background. 


---------------------
X.  EA SPORTS Net
---------------------
Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001 supports both IPX/SPX and TCP/IP LAN protocols. Depending on your network configuration, all computers that you want to link must use the same protocol. You can change LAN protocol IPX/SPX or TCP/IP in the Options menu located in the front end. If you are having problems connecting to a LAN game, contact your network administrator for assistance.

In order to play LAN games with one game CD, all computers are required to have a Complete install. Insert the game CD and start Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001. Once the game has loaded into the front end, eject the game CD and insert it at another computer. 

You are required to have an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to log onto the EA SPORTS match up server.  Before you begin playing on the Internet, log onto your ISP before you run Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001. To play on the EA Match-up server, you will need to sign up for a name and password at http://tiger2001.easports.net. We recommend that you install all golfers and courses onto the hard disk for Internet play. The game will search for a substitute animation if all golfers are not installed on the hard disk. This is also helpful in order to decrease latency over the EA SPORTS match up server.  

Note: There is no voice chat feature for Internet play in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001. 

------------------------------------------------------
XI.  Modifying Roster and Tournament Schedule
------------------------------------------------------
You can change the names on the Tournament Leaderboard by modifying the .rst files in C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001\Schedule. Select a .rst file and open it with Windows 95/98 Notepad. Replace the names or initials originally in these files with your own names. Be sure the new text you entered are between each brackets. For example, it should be displayed as [John Doe] once you finished editing a name on the roster. 

You can also change the tournament schedules for Multi-Course Tournament (MTourney.dat)and PGA TOUR season mode (PGA. All schedules are identified as .dat files in C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001\Schedule. To open a .dat file, use Windows 95/98 Notepad. Do not include spaces in the folders of courses to be played otherwise they will not cycle through properly in swing mode.  EA SPORTS and Electronic Arts will not support customer modified files.  If after you've attempted to edit any of these files, you are having problems in the game, we recommend that you copy over the originals from the program CD.  They will be in ../TW2001/data/schedules/..

Once you have opened a .dat file, you can change name of tournament(s), number of rounds, and course. The name of tournament is located with text between brackets. If you want to change the name of the tournament, replace the text in the bracket with the name of your event.  When selecting number of rounds for a custom tournament, the maximum amount of rounds is five and the minimum amount is one. To select a course played at your tournament, enter the name on COURSE line. For example, if you want to play at TPC Scottsdale, enter  "Scott      /TPC of Scottsdale" on the COURSE line. 

This is best used if you want to change the names on the Leaderboard, Tournament Swings, or PGA TOUR schedule.  

Commands used and parameters allowed:
[TOURNAMENT NAME] -- A text variable that names the tournament. Must be in brackets. Recommended string length max = 32

ROUNDS -- Take a single digit between 1 and 4, this command sets the number of rounds played at a given course.  This product does not support playing rounds greater than 4.

STARTDATE -- Takes abbreviated months and start dates to the tournament you are editing in the following form: JAN/1

COURSE -- Takes the folder name of the course you would like to add.  You can find the folder names of the courses you have installed in C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001\Data\Courses.  This is followed by a TAB and /full course name/

Example: 

;	This is a comment about modifying roster, schedules, and tournament swings.


---------------------------------
XII.  Golfers and Statistics
---------------------------------
We recommend that you do not select your created golfers as CPU. If you want to play against CPU golfers, use the pre-installed golfer for a challenging match. As you play with a created golfer, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001 tracks your statistics for all events. However, the statistics system does not track pre-installed golfers.  If you want to play the game while tracking statistics, then playing with a created golfer is the alternative.  

The game will update your created golfer's statistics after you play an event. 

----------------------------------
XIII.  Importing a Custom Course
----------------------------------
When creating a custom course with EA SPORT's Course Architect, you can play your created course in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2001. In order to upload your custom course into the game, select FILE\COPY TO GAME in the Course Architect menu. The course tool will automatically install the course into the ../data/courses/.. directory of the game. Do not use spaces in created courses' name nor the destination folder since it may not properly work with certain game modes in the product.

Note - your custom course is not intended to play with CPU golfers. Thus,you may experience problems while attempting to play against CPU golfer on your custom courses. Please see documents for Course Architect for further assistance.
