This does those type of changes. Those attributes are controlled by these XML files, which I have adjusted to be more realisitic (or at least more playable).

Which parts of the .xml's do you have to edit to make similar attributes correspond more realistically?
To avoid i.e. a rider with proloque limit 77 and TT limit 62 or MO limit 75 and hill limit 61. |

Many parts. And you can't really tie things together without basically creating just 7 cookie cutter builds.

Okay so just doing a new update, I adjusted the starting attributes of young riders to be much less predictable. Higher potential riders are still more likely to be the best in U23 races, but by no means is it guaranteed.

It might be a good idea to alter the number of good young riders in a set region.
A good example: Send any scout to the US and you may find sprinters/TT riders. But no climbers, yet the US has some very good young climbers in real life. Just think of Colorado as an example of where a great climber could come from.
Yet the game favors places where major races are. France (Alps) good climbers, Italy... So if there is a way to make the scouting more random, that would be a nice improvement.
Right now, if you scout the US you may locate a 65(est) climber...but scout France or Italy the stat jumps to the 70's.
Not sure if this can be done, but it would be a nice switch to make talent location more random. As it is, you know where to scout (if you use scouts) for each stat area.
Nice stat improvement, once I have my team for my story set...I shall be using them.

Well, that's decided in the .cdb I think, not with the XML files.
So it's up to the DB makers, I think.

Not sure either my friend, but that would make scouting a better part of the game. As it would be more random.

It's 100% decided in the .cdb (STA_region) where you can determine how many riders come from that region, the odds for what potential they get, and the odds of what type of rider they are.
For example right now the USA is set to have ~30 riders.
Potential 1 | 20% | Potential 2 | 20% | Potential 3 | 25.5% | Potential 4 | 20% | Potential 5 | 10% | Potential 6 | 3% | Potential 7 | 1.4% | Potential 8 | .1% |
Stage Racer | 25% | Climber | 10% | TimeTrial | 20% | Sprinter | 15% | Puncher | 10% | Northern Classics | 5% | Fighter | 15% |

you don't have to start a new career but the files will only come into effect on riders generated from next season onwards, any riders who have been generated by the game between it's start and now won't be effected by these as their limit's will already be in the database from when they were generated.
if you start a new career then all under 23 riders will be generated according to these.

That's a bit weird. As Jesleyh and Kentaurus said, this is defined in the DB: but at least in PCMDaily's Real Name DB (you were playing with that one, right?), like Kentaurus posted, you should have the same amount of sprinter/TT riders as stage racer/climbers in the USA (35% for both).
As for how good these riders are, it's (again as Kentaurus posted) related to the region, not to the type of a rider. The chance of a pot 8 stage racer is the same as a pot 8 sprinter, pot 8 TT, etc (what may change is the frequency at which you get TTs, sprinters, etc). So I guess you just have been a bit unlucky

@Kentaurus working on a new update or not? (I'd like to use your files in my own DB, only if you're working an update I might wait) |
