I’ve done a test plant to areas in front of the clubhouse as the two images below reveal. It isn’t necessarily the final look this part of the course will have.
I’m in the process of getting the garden next to the swimming pool ready now.
I”ve been working on the area around the clubhouse and the huge waste area between the 9th and 18th holes. This terrain is a has huge slopes, first is the from top to bottom right down into the gorge and has as big side slope with the 18th hole being on the high side, the 9th on the low side.
I’ve also been tidying up the area around the clubhouse including laying down the various lawns in front of the clubhouse and finishing the paving tiles on the northern side of the building.
Here is an image of the clubhouse and it’s surrounds as it currently looks:
At each end at the front on the corners a small garden will eventually be planted. The whitish colored path will be replaced with a hi-res texture.
The image below of the 4th shows the two cuts of rough. The heavy rough was the main rough until I substituted it for a more suitable texture.
I changed the main rough on the course with a much more suitable texture that bear a close resemblance to the real course. The previous texture will now be the heavy rough.
Here’s some images of how this new rough looks:
The 8th hole
The 10th viewed from the start of the fairway
The par 3 12th hole
The area adjacent to the 17th green
The view next to 18th green showing Pat Auge’s imposing clubhouse.
The rough texture will get some more tweaking so it’s not in it’s final quite just yet. Remember to click any image for the full size version.
I’ve been working away at knocking the terrain into shape. Most of the actual holes are in a very advanced shape now after much refinement.
The holes in question are on the back nine:
10th and 11th: The retaining wall has been put in place next to these two holes. The wall separates the marshlands from the actual golf holes.
12th: Yesterday I did the final shaping of the tee box area
13th: This hole has had a lot done to it the last week including the final modelling of the tee boxes and some very detailed work on the five greenside bunkers and their surrounds.
14th: This hole is the northern most hole on the course. The tee boxes and most importantly the slope on the left side of the hole has been finished.
15th: Most of the work has involved again doing the tee boxes and a lot of tidying up.
17th: Tee boxes and the terrain around the green has had a lot of smoothing out.
Here is a wireframe view of the aforementioned 13th green and bunkers complex: 
The terrain around the 18th still needs advanced shaping especially the area to the north of the actual hole.
Here’s some screenshots of bunkers with a new high resolution texture I’ve been playing around with.

Thanks to Vulture for creating the original texture.
Most of the bunkers on the course have had their final shaping and sculpturing.
Here are four screenshots, (click any of the images for a full size version):

Greenside bunker on the 15th hole.
Green and bunker complex on the 17th hole.
Note: The bunker lips have to textures assigned to them hence the red color.
