Tip for stage makers.
MikeS369
Maybe everybody already knows this but I just came across it.

If you want to make small movements of an selected point, click on one of the movement arrows and rotate the mouse wheel. You will get what I call micro-movements.

Just discovered that you can use the directional keys on your keyboard instead of the mouse wheel to make the points move.

Didn't want to start a new thread just for this question.

I'm planning on creating my first ever stage and will probably go with a 1 day semi-classic as it will be easier to do.

Question is how long roughly does a stage take to create for a beginner, so I have a rough idea on how long I should be spending on it?

Handsball explained everything perfectly if you need some tips. It also gives an idea of the time it'll take:

Part 2

@Matt thanks,

Just started to watch that video but the recommended site tracks 4 bikers since that vid is no longer functioning with most of its features. Can you recommend another bike route site. I've seen Bikemap but not sure how good it is.

I want to do Omloop Het Nieuwsblad with a standard route and then change one or two climbs for example.

I'd reccomend STRONGLY Eseifrancesi by our italian user emmea. Another nice site is Openrunner.

The first site I couldn't find an official page but found Openrunner. Most of these you have to register with before using them. Before registering want to make sure that it will offer me the right option I want.

For example I want to do the Omloop Het Nieuwsblad but with the Koppenberg included, which means I need to be able to use the map of the actual race and then extend it to include the extra kilometres to include the Koppenberg.

Maybe I just need to create the whole route it might be easier than adapting an existing route?

After reading this thread I am having a go at making a stage, and I can assure you that openrunner works for that. Smile

I'm making one that runs through the alps, it starts in Grenoble and climbs Chamrouse, Col de Mort, Col d'Ornon, then it climbs Alpe D'huez, continues up the Col de Poulan, descends and climbs Alpe d'huez again. Smile

If you start with a mountain stage, I recommend lluuiiggii's slope corrector. It helps you make your slopes realistic.

I got a fast simple question (I think)
I haven´t ventured into full stage creating, only trying to fix minor problems when I get the benefit of a zcts file.

My question is that on several stages the irritating issue of having the riders to race through the spectator stands close to the finish line.
Can this Stand be DELETED from the finish, since it´s sometimes even blocks the entire road, OR is this something that is just added in-game close to all business ends of races.

Give me a hint if you got what I mean ....

uncheck merge finish line -> Borders -> Borders Parameters

Thanks mates
I give this a try, when additional XML stuff is ready. (That´s 2.1 and 2.2 races)

So that was the picture Margh ( I remember, but didn´t understand, sorry slow mind)

When the issue you discribed looks somewhat like this...

(red underlined and circled)

After unticking it should look like this:

(klick "generate" after unchecking to see if it worked)

The proplem appears with unconverted 2012 stages or (in rare cases) when the stagemaker forgot to uncheck "merge finishline" when it's needed.
