Still great work, keep it up!
Maybe a nice idea would be to include an option to change the sponsor of other teams aswell, besides only your own team.
Maybe it'll work when i change team, change sponsor and change back to my original team but an easier option might be better? |

And an option to generate the 3 letters abbreviations that never change based off the actual sponsor names.

Version 13
New screen: Scout Report of U23 cyclist
You can now request to view the scout report of an U23 cyclist (in the cyclist popup window, click view -> scout report). The report shows you the pro's and con's and gives you a summary what role would probably suit him best and how good he would be at it if he succeeds in reaching his potential. An ideal screen for people who want to know more about cyclists then offered ingame, but without cheating and looking at their exact potential and max stats. The screen also contains a prototype of a new "Cyclist Header" that will probably be incorporated in the other cyclist screens in future releases. The new header also loads the cyclist' photo when you run the tool on a PC where PCM is installed.
Finetuned MIlan Sanremo preview calculations
Tuned the favorite calculations for milan sanremo so sprinters & baradeurs that will probably do well in the 3D race will have more chance of being selected as favorite. (it was to sprint-stat-minded for now)

both good idea's.
I was already working on that abbreviation, but it's difficult to find a good "algorithm" for what the 3 letters should be. (offcourse, anything is better then keeping the old short name)
I think I'll go with this:
Sponsor is 1 name: take first 3 letters
sponsor name contains a space: take first 2 letters of first name, and First letter of second name |

I run it on windows 8.1 at home, so that should work. The only thing I can think of is the antivirus blocking the application because it makes an internet connection to check for updates
You were absolutely right! I turned off my anti-virus and it started up at once. Thanks! Looking forward to be using the tool.

Version 13.1
Added options screen
You can now configure some options: Do you want 23 years old to be in the U23 lists, do you want potential color codes for over 23 year olds and do you want to be able to get a scout report from over 23 year olds.
Latest results & upcoming races
When the savegame is loaded, the initial screen now shows you the 3 latest results with the top 3 of each race. Clicking on a race name will bring you to the full result screen of that race or stage in case it's a multi-stage race.
The screen also shows you the upcoming races, with the result of last year (if available). same here, clicking on the race will show you the full results of last year.
Update Team Short Name (abbreviation)
Over the years the name of the team changes when they make deals with new sponors. However the team 3 lettres abriviation is not updated and always stays the same as in season 1. With this feature you can automatically update all abbreviations of which the tool think it's wrong, or you can choose yourself what teams need to be updated (and if you like even update the proposed new shortname)
Updated Grids
Updated some grids with the color code of the potential (and also for older then 23 years old if you have checked this in the options) and also added "column freezing" in some grids so the cyclistname is always visible.

To be honest I'm not very keen on seeing apostrophes in the abbreviation. May be a good idea to only include letters and numbers in the proposed 3 letters abbreviations. Other than that, obviously great stuff again.

Yeah I was doubting about that to if I liked it or not
Anyway, for now you can easily update the proposed value in the grid
I've tried to make the inital propasal of what teams need to be updated and to what value as good as possible so not alot manual interventions are need.
EDIT: I was talking about É for example in Vérandas Willems -> VÉW
obvioulsly, the single apostrophes like the one visible in the screenshot should be removed, I for now only checked on "-" and "."
thanks for pointing that out |

Can we remove the & symbol as well?
It wants to change AT&T to AT& instead of ATT at the moment.
Obviously I can update it myself but it would be nice to remove it for anyone that wants to just hit the change button without looking through them all.

In the meanwhile I've updated to 13.1.0.2 where I've included some extra characters to be automatically removed and not included in abbreviations. |

Version 13.2
New screen: Create custom difficulty levels
You can now finetune the difficulty levels in PCM. Is Extreme to easy for you? is Normal to easy, but hard to difficult? No problem, you just create your own finetuned difficulty level to suit your personal needs
Finetuned Favorite calculations
Update favorite calculations when alot of people are very close to eachother
Options should be saved after update
From now on the options you've selected should remain the same after an automatic update is done

A little present just before the weekend, 1 new modifier, 2 new overview screens and some usefull links added:
Version 14
New Modifier: Update contract length of staff
Also tired of having to renew your staff's contract so many times, or be 3 months in the new season and see that you have no trainers because their contract was ended last season? With the new modifier (found under modifiers -> team) you can now update the contract end of all your staff with 1 click, and even give them a +10 year contract so you never need to worry anymore.
New Screen: Country Overview
You can now see a general summary page per country where you see the best three cyclists per role, you can see the champions of that country, you can see the three most promosing youngsters of that country with their best potential role and you can see who the best cyclists of that country are in terms of palmares (wins, gt stages, classics and season wins)
New Screen: World Overview
Same of the above but without country filter. So you see the best cyclists per role, most promosing cyclists in the world, world champion and champion ITT, and the best cyclists palmares-wise.
Extra links
You can now click on country & teamname in the cyclist popup. the country will bring you to the country overview screen, the team will bring you to the team roster. the same two links have been activated on top of the cyclists report page
