This guide will help you through each process of downloading
and installing a GBC course, from chosing which courses to download,
through loading the course into your game.
Currently you have two options for downloading courses, you can either
download some of the Jack Nicklaus 5 courses and convert them to GBC,
or you can grab some of the recently released GBC courses from
the links below.
If you want to download some of the many JN5 courses available, and
also most all of the JN6 courses released since the release of JNGBC/JN6,
the best places to do so are :
GBC-Downunder
Puhman's
Course Index
Gus
& Golf
Also you will find that Gus 'N Golf
will have most if not all of the JNSE courses as well.
Now that you have chosen a course to download, you have to actually
download it onto your computer.
The download link is likely available on the review and/or quick look
you will find at one of the sites listed above.
So simply click on the link and save the file to your hard drive.
Depending upon the speed of your modem and the number of current downloaders,
it should take to long to get the files you want, with a slow modem
and on Dial-Up connection, to download the course. But faster with
faster connections that are available now.
Sometimes you won't be lucky enough to have the link right in front
of you to download the course, so you may have to do a little bit
of searching to get it.
The best place for this is Warren 'AussieRules'
site, which contains links to most all JN5 and GBC/JN6 courses sorted
by release date, course name, and designer name.
Once you have a course downloaded, you will need to extract or 'unzip'
the files needed to run the course.
The course file that you downloaded probably ended in the .zip extension,
so head over to winzip.com
and download the evaluation version of WinZip.
Once you have WinZip installed, you are ready to unzip the course
and start playing!
Open up your zip file and extract the *.course file into your:
C:\Program Files\Activision\JN6-Golden Bear
Challenge\Data\Courses\
Or what ever Drive you have installed the game onto,
C:\, D:\, E:\, etc.
The next time you load Golden Bear Challenge, your new
course will be available in the course selection menu.
ENJOY!
