- Update 1.11.0 Changes - 23 December 2025
Happy Holidays everyone! Took some time to add a couple options related to camera transitions and the sound effects that play in the interstitial that show you if you got a bogey/hole in one etc. These are available in the settings menu under gameplay and audio. Camera movement should also be much smoother by default in some situations now as well. Thanks for playing Golfinite! Changes Significantly reduce camera jumpy-ness when going from when the ball stops rolling to showing the new aim location. This should be much smoother now, particularly around the greens. Add option under Gameplay settings that allows for instant camera transitions. This will change any camera transition from it's current version to a direct cut. Add an option under audio that can be used to disable the horns / other chimes that show up after you complete a hole, or challenge.
