If you grow tired of playing solo, you can head online for a greater challenge. There are daily tournaments, ranked and unranked rounds, as well as alternate game modes, such as best ball, battle golf, three-hole minigolf, skins, one-ball, four-ball, and alternate shot. For the most part, everything ran smoothly when playing online, but it took a little while to get used to it because the swing was slower. The only problem we encountered was on the Xbox, where chips and putts that clearly didn't go in the hole were counted as if they had.
Unlike in NBA Live, where you could hear updates and view the ticker while playing offline games, these features are available only if you're in an online lobby. Creating your own golfer is still one of the game's highlights. The thing that makes these game modes so addictive year in and year out is the ability to create a golfer and make him the greatest golfer on the planet. Tiger's unrivaled character creation mode is back and is as deep as ever.
There are subtle changes to the process this year, but by and large, it's the same as in Tiger Woods If realism's what you want, it's a breeze to create a golfer in your spitting image, and you're limited only by your imagination when it comes to making zany, off-the-wall characters. Should you grow tired of your golfer's appearance, you can go back and change it at any time, or simply purchase the brown paper bag from the pro shop and stick it on his noggin.
You can also customize your player's swing, making it as smooth or as ugly as you like. After completing a round or challenge, you're given points for individual attributes, based on your performance. These points can then be used to upgrade your golfer's power, accuracy, putting, short game, luck, and more. You'll also earn money for your wins, which allows you to purchase new clothes and equipment.
As was the case last year, you can outfit your gear and clothing with equipment modifiers, giving your stats a slight boost. Once again, there's no course designer--still a glaring omission after all these years. You can put together your "dream course," using holes from any of the 21 courses in the game, but this doesn't make up for not having a true course editor.
Also numbering 21 is the number of courses, both real and fantasy, in the game. All of the golfers look fantastic. As for how the game plays--it's as enjoyable as ever, but you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between Tiger Woods 06 and Tiger Woods In fact, it can best be described as a mix between the 05 and 06 releases because you can now use the swing and putting mechanics from either year.
Swinging your club uses the tried-and-true method of pulling down and then pushing up on the left analog stick. With the standard control scheme, you can add a draw or a fade by moving the left analog stick down at an angle during your swing.
The alternate swing controls take advantage of both analog sticks by requiring you to push the right analog stick left to add a draw or fade, but you still perform your swing with the left stick. Both methods work equally well, but it's nice to have the option of an alternate scheme if last year's didn't jive with you.
The standard control scheme for putting works just as it did last year. An overlay is placed on the green, and you'll need to read the slope by how fast the white dots move along the grid. The ideal putt-cam that shows you the ideal putting line is back, though it appears to be facing downward a bit more this year, making it more difficult to "cheese" by lining up your putt with objects in the background.
The alternate putt method is similar to Tiger Woods You're shown the path the ball would travel if you hit it without any adjustments.
Your caddy will give you precise directions for how far to the left or right you need to aim and how much power you'll need to use. You can also use the ideal putt-cam here, but it doesn't show your best line when zooming toward the hole. It seems like most people are having the same problems. Can anyone post an idiots guide on how to get this game to work? I can get as far as unzipping the large. None of the autoruns work. I need a no-cd crack for Tiger Woods 08, anyone know where I can find it?
It asks me to insert the CD.. So mount the disc image in daemon, open the virtual disc and grab the cracked exe from where the nfo says you to.
I hope this helps some of you! Hi TC, I did exactly the same. I have no idea why. It is 4 Mb as opposed to the original 8Mb one which i thought was considerably less.
Mastaace, u will get the wrong disc error if you dont complete step 5 in TC post. Why are there so many identical? It would seem that extracting the files I needed from the hatred folder using Power ISO was not working.
Yes the cracked. The htd-tw08 files are all the same RAR archive containing the. Game crashes randomly for me. Sux when you just got a birdie and your opponent is putting for double bogey and it crash causing you to have to replay the hole from the tee..
Ok the dialog, and re-run setup by double clicking the Autorun. Copy the entire contents of the disc to a temporary directory on your local harddrive e. Then, Windows Explorer, browse to this directory, then into the Autorun directory.
Open the file Autorun. Save the file and re-run setup using the Autorun link retain the Win2K compatibility. Everyone do not waste your time downloading this game. The graphics look awful cartoon like and even the main menus are awful. I also noticed after unpacking, there is another RAR file 0compressed which has a few more folders.

Thanks very much for this tip!!! Install now runs as it is supposed to. The keygen codes to get the game to work does not work online? Any help please.

I just installed worked fine and that is where I am at. If anyone has cracked that issue, please post. I have managed to install all the files and used daemon to load the file however when i open the hatred file run keygen and try to open the game i get told engined. Thanks pete. TW caused an Access Violation in module Engine. Exception handler called in main thread. Read from location caused an access violation.
The engine. So the error could be something to do with you graphics spec. Hello Titi, you probably downloaded a bad torrent the same as me as there were some DLL files for the course missing.
Can U help me pls with an valis serial numer to play this amazin game online? This is the second torrrent ive installed. Its becomming a total pain in the ass. Anyone got the same deal or any bright ideas. Has anyone figured this out. It is doing my tits in. Im almost ready to just go and buy the thing. This goes against all my morale fibre however. I call on you guys to help me suss this out. This might help — i have a vista laptop game loaded then crashed when i started a round and an xp home computer came up with the Engine.
All i did was download diretx 10 from the microsoft web page and now they both work. The game says it only needs directx 9. I have an image of the original disc written to DVD. It starts the installer fine, but after selecting install location the installer disappears and browser opens to register online. How do I avoid this? I had a look at the NFO file. It appears that all I need is the keygen and crack. How do I get these files only. I had a look at the torrent and it, unfortunately, is made up of RAR files.
I seem to have a problem. However, when I double-click, it says I dont have Engine. What do I do? Can some one post a full guide to getting this game installed, no jargon, no messing about. We all want to play this game. There has been posts, upto this point including mine and the question, has anyone actually played this game yet, must be posed. Plays smooth, no crashes yet. Copy all those files excluding the TW It should work.
Before extracting check your downloaded folder has these files: - 29 zipped up files of 48,kb on of 12,kb - htd-tw Then to install: - extract contents of downloaded folder to somewhere safe - winrar should create one large rar file - extract this to same location - run setup the one with the ea logo , NOT AUTORUN - open keygen in hatred folder, use generated key when prompted.
It should automatically fill in the number for you. Game works perfectly for me in all formats, I have nothing special on my pc. I have tried everything to play this game. It installed just fine, but every time I try it tells me to insert correct disc. I am running Vista ultimate. Has anyone played this with Vista?? If someone could tell me how to fix it, that would be greatly appreciated Cheers lads.
I went out and bought the game tiger and on two of my computers i kept getting missing dill files so after about ten of these i decided to try to reformatt my harddrive guess what it worked no problems after that. I dont know why it took reformatting my hard drives to get it to work so dont ask. Im running windows xp pro. I spent less time reformatting then i spent looking for dills I would like a no cd crack so i can stop putting in the cd everytime i switch games.
Ill take that link if anyone has one. Found a solution to engine. Have the same problem with the game crashing when you try to load a course… Just seeing if anyone has figured out a solution to this. I install everything fine, but from reading some of these comments people are loading the game via the desktop icon. I have this game installed on Windows Vista, 2. Anyone else have this problem? I previoulsy had running on XP, 3GHz pentium 4 and it was much faster, and no crashing problems.
Only thing i can think of is to crack it but not sure how. Ur key worked a treat tho!!! For others its here:. Just played my first round, could even leave 2nd monitor running without probs. GUY you asked…. Unbelievable how many people on here cant get it to work.. Is this a problem with my video card? I am having the same problem the game crashes the minute the load is finished. Just shuts off without any comment or details.
I have single handedly read every post here in regards to all the problem people have been having with the game. Unfortunatly not one has seemed to be in regards to this issue particuliar issue. Very perplexing…. So the dvd is burned, install, and when asked for keygen just double click the keygen file and it will automatically fill in the key-otherwise just write it in manually!
Hi guys. I get an error report saying something bout libavcodec. What is wrong with this? Any help would be appreciated.
Never mind I found a solution to my problem on a easports forum. I had to removed ffdshow which allowed the game to load up. Hi all this has been driving me craaazzzyyy for months, literally since last August since it was released. I contacted EA website and they tested my computer and all passed, supposedly all enough spec to play game, I really am At a loss as to what to do next.
Have closed all pograms, shut down security even had a computer expert round which has cost us a small fortune I am with windows vista I have read all comments on this site and I am beginning to believe EA Sports are making a small fortune, because something somewhere stinks. Sorry first timer your games are not worth it for this hassle. I await your replies from all who have a bit more knowlegde than me!!!
A very bewildered newbie EA girlfriend of a golfing fanatic fanatic but only if he could play the game!!!! Exausted phew!! After spending 2 frustrating weeks trying to get this game to run and reading for hours on differnt forums etc I stumbled across a set of video drivers for my Nvida gs card. I cannot belive EA Sports or nvida do not know about this site or is this guy just a bit cleverer than they want to admit.
By the way the specs for my system are vista home premium P4 3. Downloaded it from 3 different torrent sites now, and the last one is definitely supposed to work. After reading all these posts… i finally figured out the problem for the crashing…. Then when I try to restart it, it asks me if I wanna resume my game and I say yes, and it crashes again. Like I said it was working fine for the past 4 days I bee playing it. I have the retail version, and Windows Vista HP 32 bit.
Scattaman, tried your idea to stop crashing right after loading the course, I even turned all options to low or off, but it still crashed on me. Any other ideas? So can u help me plz? Add my name to the list of people who get the warning about not being able load the selected course.
Every mode I select, even the driving range, has a blank course list. Created my golfer just fine and configured all settings without a hitch. Just that one problem. Take care everybody… [D]. Im really needing some help…Ive been playing the game on VISTA with no problems at all…then suddenly it crashed and have not been able to restart the game…tried reinstalling and so on with no luck…basically when i run the game it just jumps to the EASPORTS intro but all i get is a white screen and then the game freezes…can anyone help with this one?????
Just right click on My Documents, Properties, then restore default. This worked a treat for me. When i am playing it does not matter which course it is sometimes the game freezes, but i can hear the sounds of the game.
