Cloud services – saving unfinished game onto server
CG3D 2.5 allows you to save unfinished games not only to your computer, but also to a cloud server. This allows you to continue playing on any computer or simulator, anywhere. To use this feature, you need to set up an account.
Account set up
Creating an account lets you sign in easily without the need to type in your name, HCP and other data on any device with CG3D. At the same time, you gain access to cloud services and tournaments.
Cloud tournaments
Players signed in with their account can join tournaments listed on the tournament server. Tournaments are created worldwide by Datacrea and authorized “Golf House” operators. Thus, they can compare their skills with players across the world. Not only standard golf games are available, but also various special games aimed at players’ skills, and entertainment, such as Target Golf, Minigolf, Demolition Golf and, of course, Nearest to Pins and Longest Drive.
In order to play, you need a player account, internet access, and the course (installed) for which the tournament is created.

Saving an unfinished game is available for all game types, including practice and entertaining games. Thanks to new cloud feature, you can continue playing anytime and anywhere. The player decides whether to save the game to the computer or the cloud.
