Hi friend!

I have tested some of your stages and I have to say that they are really, really good!Wink

Congratulations! You're doing a very good job. I'm waiting for the complete package to play your variant.

Thanks for your work!

I'm just home from hollyday at Jausiers close to Parpaillon and i took that road for a walk and i can say you that road is just crazy sh*t for cycling. But in PCM it will be great.

@Camacho: Thanks! Great to hear that to tested and like some stages Smile That's always appreciated. The tour-variant will be finished soon!

@sam1196: Yeah, I know about the Parpaillon and it's "road" Smile Saw it on the pictures, which I checked while making the stage. It's maybe a bit unrealistic, but, hey, it's a game and let's say, Prudhomme gave some money to renew the gravel-sections Wink

NOTE (especially for the ManGame-administrators): I've now converted the Tour of Geelong (which seems to be part of the ManGame-Div2 this year) into PCM11-format, you can find it in post #2!

I will post next TdF-stage soon! And I've now updated the tour-facts in post #3, including a complete list of all stages!

Stage 12: Foix - Sigean
img714.imageshack.us/img714/1050/stage12profil.jpg


As the peloton leaves the Pyrenees behind, we have now two flat stages until we reach the Alps. This 12th stage with the depart in Sigean (at the Mediterranean Sea in the south of France) is completely flat in it's second half, but the first half features some smaller climbs and may suit a breakaway group. The sprinter-teams will have another chance to go for stage tomorrow, but it could become interesting today, as it's definitely a perfect finish for a mass-sprint, too.

Stage 13: Narbonnes - Arles
img600.imageshack.us/img600/9213/stage13profil.jpg


Another flat stage until we enter the Alps. This stage is definitely a perfect suit for the sprinters and we will most probably see a mass-sprint in Arles. The stage is without any difficulties and the sprinters, who 'survived' the Pyrenees, will have very good chances today.

I like your stages.

A good mix of classic stages aswell as a few new experiments.

It seems very realistic.

I think we might actually see the cobbles in Robaix used in time trial for real some day! Nice idea.
 
tsmoha
Thanks, Iguwell! I wanted to find a good mix between classic and new stages Smile So I'm glad, you like the route!

Stage 14: Aix-en-Provence - Mont Colombis
img705.imageshack.us/img705/4131/stage14profil.jpg


Welcome to the Alps! After two days of 'recovering' from the Pyrenees, this Tour is getting interesting again. And the first Alps-stage finishes on Mont Colombis! But the riders only have to climb the first 4kms of this climb.. it's a hilly stage, but it's definitely a climb, which could lead to small gaps. You won't loose the Tour here, but you can hurt your components!

Stage 15: Gap - Col du Parpaillon
img155.imageshack.us/img155/7286/stage15profil.jpg


The first mountain-stage in the Alps! And the riders will face to HC-climbs: the Col d'Izouard and the final climb up the Col du Parpaillon! The gravel roads on Parpaillon had to be renewed for the TdF. This stage will be one of the most important in this tour, that's for sure. There's only one summit finish left (Mont Ventoux), so it's a crucial stage after some of the favourites may have lost some time within the tough Pyrenees-stages.

if you do the Izoard that means i's the north side of parpaillon?
Great stage!

This might just be me, but I get a crash with the 4th stage of Tour de San Luis. I can view the profile, but during simulation, the game crashes.

I tried to replace it with the Tour TT, and that worked, so it's not a DB issue.

@CrueTrue: I will have a look at this issue. With PCM10, the stages worked fine. But I didn't tested the TT in PCM11 yet. I will do now Smile

@sam1196: Thanks! I don't remember, if it's the north side.. but what I do know is: it's the side from Embrun, so I guess it's the north side Smile

Next stage soon!

Tour de San Luis Stage 4 fixed:

I guess, I found the problem for this stage crashing. There was no finish-line, though the stage-editor didn't say there was an error Smile It should be fixed now! Here's the new stage 4 (and I will update the link in post #2 later, too):

Stage 15: Embrun - Le Bourg-d'Oisans
img715.imageshack.us/img715/9643/stage16profil.jpg


Two famous climbs today, but it's most probably not a stage for the GC-favourites. Though the riders have to climb the Galibier and Col de Croix de Fer, we can expect a bigger group of favourites at the finish. This stage is a perfect day for a breakaway and maybe some guys fighting for the Polka dot.. the finish at Le Bourg 'dOisans will also be tomorrow's departure: for a tough timetrial up 'Alp d'Huez'!

Thanks, baia! Really appreciate your idea Smile Glad you like it!

Stage 17: L'Alpe d'Huez (ITT)
img155.imageshack.us/img155/3738/stage17profil.jpg


Another crucial stage in the Alps: and the riders do have to climb the world-famous Alp d'Huez within a timetrial! It won't be the last timetrial in this tour, but it's a great chance for the better climbers to gain some seconds on stronger timetrialists of the GC's Top-10! If there's no Lance at this tour, we probably won't see that big gaps between the top-riders, but it's still a very hard ITT.

Like the TT. I feel the TT profiles never give the gradient justice though.
 
tsmoha
@valverde321: Thanks! And yes, such short ITT's (especially mountain) always look way too easy in the profile.

@Pellizotti2: Thank you very much! Means a lot Smile

Stage 18: Le Bourg-d'Oisans - Montélimar
img824.imageshack.us/img824/3789/stage18profil.jpg


A last flat stage until the two crucial stages (Ventoux and 40km-ITT in Avignon)! Today's stage is without any difficulties except of it's length of almost 200kms and it's another chance for the sprinters to get a stage or to battle for green jersey.

Stage 19: Montélimar - Mont Ventoux
img195.imageshack.us/img195/4618/stage19profil.jpg


It's not the hardest stage within this TdF, but it's definitely one of the highlight-stages! Finishing on the famous Mont Ventoux is always fun to watch.. and tough for the riders! The unique landscape on the top of the Ventoux will be an awesome scenery for the last battle in the mountains in this Tour!
