Game crash after adding cyclist
Master_Mind
So I edited my savegame (a weekly save from 1st season in November) and added a new cyclist to it without team. I searched it in the game and he's there. When I click his name the game crashes.

Can anyone help me? I must be doing something wrong while editing him (I'm using PCM Fast Editor) but I don't know what as this is my first attempt to create a rider in a savegame (I've done this before but only in DBs and never had a problem).


Sorry if this is not the proper thread to do it.

Make sure that the value in the column fkIDteam is 119.
 
Master_Mind
That column doesn't exist.

Don't you have to use the usual save games? C:\...\Document\PCM2013\Users\Database\Solo\DB you are using

Of course that column does exist in DYN_cyclist.
I don't know which editor you are using. Maybe it is called differently in that editor but you just have to assign a rider to a team, in this case an dummy team where every rider without team is in.

It's the same as using the weekly save games. It's a savegame.

Well, team then.

Just don't put him in team - , but him in the 'free agent' team. Which might sound weird, but just search for some free agents and put him in the same 'team' as the free agent is Wink

If you don't select any team for him, then it'll crash if you click his name, indeed Wink

It is not the same. The weeklysaves are only backups. The most recent file will always be the save. Therefore editing the weeklysave is only needed if you want to go "back in time".

All the other free riders as "-" as Team.

I want to go back in time so I can hired the freeagent cyclist I want to create to my team as I tyied to had a new cyclist to my team directly from the Editor and I couldn't.

I solved it!!!!! I had to put a trainer on him, in this case "-" as a trainer Grin

It is normal that it crashes if you don't fill all columns.

And it is easy to add a rider to a team, you only need to assign the team and add a contract.
 
Master_Mind
When I thought everything was OK, the game crashes loading a race (even simulating).

It crashes everytime I try to put the creater rider in the startlist. If I don't include him the game works fine.

So the question is, where did I mess up in the editor? Sad


Edit: I think I identified where the problem is. I opened the save in PCM Fast Editor, and in the Cyclist I saw he wasn't in any race (despite the other 7 riders I added to the Roma-Maxima race). Furthermore instead of having a State of InRace, he had FREE. So I changed this manually in the save, added him to Roma Maxima and InRace. Tried to play but got the crash again.

All other values in Dyn_Cyclist are the same as the other 7 that will be in the race so I have no idea where's the error

Make sure that all the columns of that rider are filled out. Certain columns might only need a 0 but still, empty is bad.
Also make sure that there is a contract linking that rider to your team.

But I am pretty sure that you cannot add a rider to a race using that approach. The columns you mentioned will be filled by the game, therefore the problem is somewhere else.
 
Master_Mind
All columns has values except the one that don't need (like Photo, Specialisation, Injury, tga_skin, etc.). Other riders have nothing on this columns too (and there isn't such "-" option there Pfft).

Rider contract is correct imo:

Why did I had to add a rider to my save? I was really enjoying this save and now I blow it up Sad


Edit: So, he didn't race in this season, but ingame I have this:

Days Raced - 11 Shock

I click in his name and there you have 0 Races:

In the editor there's 0 days raced. Can this be the problem of the crash? Where can I fix this Sad

It is always possible to delete that rider or just don't use him in races until his contract runs out.

If you really want to have a certain person in the game, you could rename an existing rider and sign him. After you have signed him, you could change his stats and potential to your liking.
 
Master_Mind
I edited my previous post, can you check it please?


The problem is that I planned the season with him, and not being able to use him will make me in trouble with my sponsor Pfft
 
Master_Mind
Sorry for double post.


I'm tired of trying to fix this, can I upload the savegame for you so you can see for yourself if you can find the bug?

Well, I uploaded it anyway Smile

OK, I had a look at your save.

One thing I noticed is that Bruno Santos has less lines in the table DYN_cyclist_fitness_data. I don't know what this table is for but you could try to add the missing lines by copying or comparing other riders of your team.

Also he has no line in DYN_cyclist_satisfaction.

Other stuff I have noticed is that there are entries in the tables DYN_leader_program and DYN_race_status which both link Bruno Santos with the race Roma Maxima although he is not participating in that race according to fkIDrace in DYN_cyclist. Especially look at fkIDcyclist_chief in DYN_race_status because I think this links other riders as helper for B. Santos.

BTW: You did all of this because of your sponsor? Maybe you should have tried to please them a little less. Would have made you a little more happy I believe.
 
Master_Mind
I think DYN_cyclist_fitness_data is from past season, and that show the fatigue from my team. Riders as Brandão are not him my team this season and rider as Kelderman only join my team in the end of the week thats why he, like Santos, have few lines and only in the last weeks.

I deleted entries for Bruno Santos from DYN_leader_program and DYN_race_status. I changed the leadership for Kelderman in tha race status and changed the ID from Santos to Keldeman (on the workers).

Launched the game, selected Santos to run in Roma Maxima, and then crash loading the stage.

I'll try to add a line for his satisfaction and see if its solve the issue but I dont think so Sad




I didn't added him because of the sponsor, but with him in the team, the sponsor asked to do better results in some difficult races (like Giro del Trentino) Pfft


Edit: I almost forgot! Thank you for the time spent helping me Grin
