Re: Create Miniature Golf
Funny idea! smile

It's probably feasible but not so easily: straight and curved tracks can be designed with their borders thanks to rooms and walls. More complicated stuff like bumps and hollows could be designed with curved walls exported to OBJ format then reimported and rotated 90° during importation.
On the other hand, I don't see how you could design banked turns with Sweet Home 3D, but as far as I can remember, this kind of track is generally not found in a miniature Golf.

Re: Create Miniature Golf
Challenge accepted for amusement's sake.

I made a simple example in Blender

You will need to import mini-golf.zip yourself. I haven't seen how well it looks in SH3D. It needs a lot of cleaning up as the curve conversion created way too many vertices. Worth a test drive to see if it works for you though.

Since most mini-golf is really just a bit bit of grass surrounded by a kerb with a hole in one end supporting a flag, you would be better off making the course in SH3D and just adding flags.

So here is a hole with a flag in it.

Re: Create Miniature Golf
This is a mini-golf hole. I used a low wall with baseboards on both sides to give the impression of a profiled kerb. Rooms with the roof turned off to texture the floor and the start line. Add a flag and voila.

Re: Create Miniature Golf
Thanks for your tests. Any volunteer to design the next hole?

Re: Create Miniature Golf - with a windmill
Just for fun, I threw together a windmill obstacle, because, you know, it's not minigolf without a windmill.
Feel free to improve it.
