Denmark
Estonia
Great Britain

So, still a lot missing, but I progress rather fast, as I have some good data for most countries |

Today I have done: Slovenia, Netherlands and 80% of Poland
To go: Italy, Spain, Belgium, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Slovakia, Portugal, Czech Rep., New Zeland, South Africa, Austria, Ukraine and Moldova.
I have lots of data for most countries, so basically it's just a matter of the time I put into it
EDIT: This only goes for surnames. I am done with given names

If you do the New Zealand names take care that there are lots of Maori names around.
But most NZ cyclists aren`t Maori different to Rugby for example.
So the names should be quite common "British" names like Jack Bauer, Hayden Roulston, Greg Henderson and not Aata Akuhata, Eruera Atutahi... |

Yeah, I am aware of that . Luckily they are pretty easy to spot |

Another update on my progress. Yesterday evening and today I have done:
Czech Rep.
Germany
Luxembourg
Moldova
New Zealand
South Africa
Spain
That leaves Italy, Belgium, Russia, Switzerland, Slovakia, Portugal, Austria and Ukraine
I should be able to finish them by tomorrow. Then I can test it in game, to see if anything is wrong |

Quitting for the day now, and managed to do Slovakia, Switzerland and Austria.
That leaves me with 5 countries to do tomorrow, and that should be managable |

I'm looking forward to this.
Another question that is in the same topic i think: is there a solution for e.g Russian cyclists being "Black"? Not that i'm racist but it's sooooo unrealistic. I think it's even unrealistic to have a Italian black cyclist.

Well, then I just hope it won't diasappoint anyone As I said before, this will not be perfect. But it is a serious attempt to correct Cyanides halfassed effort at this. |

Unfortunately, that's not possible. |

even just delete that skin type isn't that possible? Sorry if it sounds racist.

Not sure if you can delete it without problems. But you can definitely edit the skin. Just take another default skin and name it like it. |

Last stint of editing has begun. Finished all countries but one. So, my plan for tonight:
Do Russia (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
Test in-game to find errors (typos etc.) |

Again, this is not perfect, but it is way better than what Cyanide had. I made this with the data that I could find, and the knowledge that I had, so there might still be some weird names, but I have cleared most of them.
Enjoy!

EDIT: This is an edit of the local.cdb from the PCMDAily 2011 DB, so I think it will only work with that

Downloading now... Really great work.
Edit: Could you make it compatible with 1041? or is it already like that?
