PLAYER SUBSTITUTION TUTORIAL for PGA Tour Golf TEAM CHALLENGE Edition
I will do the best that I can to write this tutorial in the simplest of terms so that everyone can follow. I recommend reading this tutorial all the way through before performing the actual steps. This method will allow you to replace any of the current golfers on the player select screen with any of the 43 golfers that are within the game! I recommend making a back up of your current PGA Team Challenge hard drive in the event something goes wrong as I will not be held responsible if any damage occurs.
This should take you only a couple minutes to complete. The tutorial looks extensive but it really isn't. I tried to dumb this down so even a 6 year old could do this so please don't take offense to my attempt at simplicity. I know that I would personally want TOO MUCH information versus having to try to fill in any gaps. With that being said...here we go!
Step One- Connect a PS/2 style keyboard (not USB) and a mouse (I used a USB mouse) to your PGA Tower and power it on.
Step Two- Allow the game to fully load into attract mode.
Step Three- Hit the WINDOWS button on your keyboard (located next to your ALT key) and a menu will open.
Step Four- Use the down arrow key to highlight gvr close and hit enter. (You may have to hit the WINDOWS key again and click on CONTROL PANEL).
Step Five- Click on the folder up arrow icon on the top left of the page.
Step Six- Double click on the C: PGA drive
Step Seven- Double click the pga_tour_golf_2006 folder
Step Eight- Double click the Players folder. Once opened you will see a list of players.
Step Nine- Scroll through the player list and find the players.ini file and double click it to open it. Another list of golfers will be displayed with numerical values next to each golfer.
Step Ten- Below is the list you should be seeing BEFORE you make any edits. I have placed the players that are currently available in the player select screen in BOLD. These will NOT be in bold on your actual screen. We can change the names associated with these BOLD numbers to any golfer we would like on this same list.
For example, if I don't care to use Tiffany Williamson (Player34) as a golfer I can assign a new name (say Arnold Palmer) to her numerical value. To do this I would replace her name by erasing it with the backspace key and entering a replacement name so that it reads Player34=Arnold Palmer for example.
Player00=Adam Scott
Player01=Adriana Dulce
Player02=Alastair McFadden
Player03=Aphrodite Papadapolus
Player04=Arnold Palmer
Player05=Ben Hogan
Player06=Bev Bouchier
Player07=Billy Hightower
Player08=Bunjiro Tanaka
Player09=Caesar Rosado
Player10=Charles Howell III
Player11=Colin Montgomerie
Player12=Dion Douglas
Player13=Gary Player
Player14=Hunter Elmore
Player15=Jack Nicklaus
Player16=Jeb McGraw
Player17=Jesper Parnevik
Player18=Jim Furyk
Player19=John Daly
Player20=Johnny The Hustler
Player21=Justin Leonard
Player22=Justin Rose
Player23=Justin Timberlake
Player24=Kendra Lovette
Player25=Natalie Gulbis
Player26=Notah Begay III
Player27=Raquel Rogers
Player28=Reginald Weathers
Player29=Retief Goosen
Player30=Rich Beem
Player31=Ricky Barnes
Player32=Seve Ballesteros
Player33=Stuart Appleby
Player34=Tiffany Williamson
Player35=Tiger Woods
Player36=Ty Tryon
Player37=Vijay Singh
Player38=Dan Reid
Player39=Shawn Powers
Player40=Vinnie Sioti
Player41=Kazuo Saito
Player42=Alexa Everett
Step 11- After changing the name from Tiffany Williamson to Arnold Palmer we will then close the window by clicking on the red "X" in the upper right hand corner. You will be asked if you want to save your changes and you will choose YES.
Step 12- Hit the WINDOWS key once again and a menu will pop up.
Step 13- Select gvr boot and the game will reload with your saved changes!
At this point we took Tiffany Williamson's golfer out of the game and replaced it with Arnold Palmer. However, when you go to the player select screen you will notice that Tiffany is still there. That's because we aren't 100% on how to change the profile pic to represent the replacement golfer as of yet but we are working on it. When you select Tiffany Williamson and select your course, Arnold Palmer (or any other golfer you choose) will show up and will be playable while you are golfing.
You can do this with any of the golfers to customize how your game plays. Personally, I will be replacing all of my fantasy golfers with golf pros. Once we figure out how to change the player profile pic and the game face overlay that is displayed during play it will be complete. PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU REPLACE A LEFTY GOLFER WITH ANOTHER GOLFER, THE NEW GOLFER WILL ALSO BE LEFT HANDED (EVEN IF THEY ARE NORMALLY A RIGHT HANDED GOLFER).
We are also assuming that there has to be a way to allow ALL of the player numbers to be recognized in the player select screen. That would give us over 40 golfers to choose from! Have fun and if you have any ideas please contact me so that we can finish up this part of the project!

Awesome work. I have all access cd do i need to just copy it to add to dropbox for ya. As for adding player pic during selection i think you will have to grab that image from the tiger woods game and reassign it in tne player art folder (?name). Has been a little while since i sat down and messed with the files.

lilshawn:
so what's up with this "all access pass" kit I keep hearing about? I realize it's an upgrade, but where does it stand in the scope of things? does it use it's own dongle or is it an upgrade that...say for example, uses the dongle from PGA chapionship edition to add additional stuff?
