Do they go to the same folder? Well that's quite odd. Yeah they should obviously go into stages
There is an empty "Documents" in C:\Users\ that creates a Pro Cycling Manager folder with just 2014\Mod\Database and 2014\Mod\Stages
But I think this directory is not linked to the game at all. The game can't find the information there. Because both folders are called "Documents" the installer chooses the wrong folder, and it should be choosing the D:\2014\Mod\Database and D:\2014\Mod\Stages instead. |

Ah. Looks like you have got the Documents in a path that is not the one chosen by the installer (and that couldn't be changed while making it). You'll just need to move those 2014/Mod/Stages and Database to your actual Documents directory, just like you posted above

Yeah, I got all the stages now
But there is a new problem. Whenever I click "next day" and I'm on a race day there is a big chance it will crash to desktop. I often have to reload the game 4 times before being able to enter the race menu to click "3D race".
The crashes seem really random, because it works sometimes? Is this happening for anyone else? |

Strange problem. Well, open dyn_cyclist with an advanced editor like pcm fast editor or lachi's editor, under the column that has a name similar to "champion jersey", iirc it's somewhere near gene_i_will_retire (no editor to make it sure sorry). If you're using fast editor tick the "national road champion" option. Otherwise with any other editor input "32" under that column.

Hello all together.
I am also having some heavy issues with the extension packs. I will try to provide all necessary information.
Installed PCM 14 via Steam 3 days ago.
Downloaded and installed PCM Expension v.1 and v.2 in this order.
I have installed them in the correct steamapp/common/pcm folder.
Default my documents on my pc is C:\users\username\Documents
OS is Windows 8.1
After the installation I was not able to find the appropriate career and single race databases in Settings/Database. Only the defaul database was there.
I managed to resolve this my copying the database files from the installation folder PCMm DB Backup into Documents/PCM/Databases
Now I am able to choose the appropriate database.
However the biggest problem is that all new races have only Plouay - PLouay stages. And the stage files for new stages are not present neither in Documents\Mod/Stages, nor in the install folder in CM_stages.
On the other side, the new form indicators icons are there in the game, the new loading bar, the new jerseys. i can start 3D races and they seem to work.
Can you maybe assist in getting the correct stages for the new races?
Don't know if You already found the solution, but i had exactly the same problem and it was because the files that should go to (C:)/Users/MyUsername/Documents/Pro Cycling Manager 2014/Mod/Database and /Stages went to (C:)/Users/OtherUsername/Documents/Pro Cycling Manager 2014/Mod/Database and /Stages

Is the db into your documents/pcm 14/mod/database?
Also did you start the game before installing the db?

Hi
I have an issue with the Tour de Romandie in the second season. Specifically the Leon40 variant... I cannot play or simulate the first stage as it crashes. If I try and play it gets stuck on the Road geometries screen (have let it sit for 15+) it doesn't hang as the slides for favourites/teams/fitness still move. If I try and do a quick simulation it crashes instantly. I have also tried to skip ahead to the start of the Giro but again it crashes instantly.
Is there a way to fix this with an editor or by some other means, I really want to continue this career.
Thanks |

Try replacing that stage with another one. In documents/mod/stages look for that stage and rename another one with a similar profile or whichever other you want to the same name as the other one and delete the bugged one

Hello,
I have two simple questions:
- I have read around that a 2.1 expansion pack was in the works. Is this still the case? I have downloaded the exp. pack some time ago but since I was already a few years into my game I never really started it. At this point, I guess I would just wait for this 2.1 version to fix the bugs reported, is there any ETA?
- I did not understand what exactly is in the Variant DLC. Basically, I am not too interested in it if it's only about alternatives for Giro d'Italia\Tour\Vuelta. I would download it, instead, if it offers variant courses for various races. |

All speculation on my part!
There is no work on Daily DB at the moment. We don't have anyone to lead the project.
Saying so, I am helping Jesley with the stats so I would treat JESDGB stats update after LBL like a usual 'Daily' stats update
Our best hopes seems to be the Jesgd db. |

It's variants for most of the wt races and some minor races as well, besides the 3 gts.

oh no... that's really unfortunate. I was hoping just for a tiny bug-fixing patch:
I personally don't care about the stats update, the reason I was interested in this DB was only to have more races instead of the same routes used over and over by Cyanide, and more teams. Nothing more.
At this point I'm not sure what to do... :/
If only there was a place where I could download only the tested races that were added to that DB, I'd download them and add them as variants.

Hmm that's kind of a cryptic non-answer I guess haha. I'll dowload it and try to check what's in there myself.
However, now comes another issue: would the alternatives for races that are already in-game work without the expansion DB?

Yes they would, they work with any db.

I found out that the file is made by an .exe and .data files though... dang. I'm not sure I want to risk installing it this way as I don't know what it's doing, and I don't have the expansion installed. Oh well. I guess I'll have to search for the stages one by one on the forum |

Well if you don't like the way it's installed I'd suggest you a larger pack that doesn't use the self installation like A.S.O. Stages Pack, can be found in the pcm 14 dl section. If you really want to choose what to install by yourself that has to be choice.

Hi
I tried to find whether someone asked this wuestion before, but I could not find it. I have the problem that I don't have a second folder in my C:/Programs(x86)/Cyanide directory. But when I installed the Database into that one folder it didn't work. But then there was a second folder after I installed the DB. But even when I tried to install the DB again into the right folder after removing it from the wrong one it did not work. So now I reinstalled PCM and I have just one folder again. And I started the game in both cases before I tried to install the DB.
Can somebody help me? |

You need a tool like 7-zip to download this, someone has a link to download this for free? I tried via the link for Lachi, but without success. |
