You can't edit wind? Then how it is possible that in Oman there is always so much windy? But I never made a stage before so that was just my imagination  |

However, I must say it's quite unplayable, heavy slopes etc.
I'm planning to make a second, much better edition of that race, with some hills and a final mountain. I'm quite busy these days but will start on it after my exam next week, probably. |

Okay so I've successfully created a route on Bike Route Toaster, and saved it on the site. Now how can I get it on my computer and into the stage editor? |

You shouldn't save it on the site, you should export it.
After creating it, click the "Summary" tab and then choose download as .gpx file.

Hello to everyone reading this.
I've decided to try and make some National Championship Variants, more specifically French (and Belgian) National Championships. Had a question though, will those stages be transferable to PCM 2013? Otherwise there's no use in making them now, I'd better wait two weeks then.
Made one French one already, but I'm not real happy about it, so I won't upload it. I learned a lot from it, though.

Alright, thanks. Then I can get to work. Do you know if there's an interest in French NC fantasy variants?  |

Does that mean fantasy route or also fantasy environment etc?

Completely fantasy. I start with a blank canvas and just start building roads etc.
Though I'd like to work with gpx, but I don't seem to get that right. I get the map all right, but I see no way to figure out where to roads would have to go to have the real roads in the map, if you understand what I mean? |

First of all you go to top view. Then you go to the right of the editor, where on top are 4 bars. You take 2nd to the right. From there, you load GPX. Then you follow the black lines for the road. You can keep intersections and roundabouts in mind?
I hope this is what you mean

And if you mean the roads not covered by the GPX make them up or roughly guess based of a map open in another window

Okay thanks! I'll do some tests first, and maybe hold off my final variants until PCM13, that way I can use the new, hopefully improved, stage editor with new IB's to create some NC variants and maybe even some stage race variants, or WC variants.
Am thinking about making a mountain NC/WC. That's pretty rare these days and I like that idea, not necessarily a mountain finish, but with a big mountain right in the middle maybe  |
