I cannot understand why the flat stats are so high. It seems to be messing up the career. Many riders are considered fighter, which then results in wrong training. (1)

The potentials are weird too. The riders have much development potential on their weak stats. Don't know what this is for. (For example J. Tschopp has 77 on FL and 4 stars left, so he could reach 85 on FL, are you kidding me?) (2)

Also there are no scouts for the small countries.

Did anybody play a long career with this DB already?


(1) This was caused by an error with the converting of the PCM 13 FDB 14 to the PCM 14 FDB 14. We will fix this very soon. I think this week.

(2) Perhaps you've selected the random potentials. Cause otherwise there could be no problems. Tschopp hasn't got the potential to be better in the future. Smile

Some guys on our community are still playing, like in the fourth year for example, and are still happy. It will all improve after the next update. Smile Wink

this are examples from 2014 database for pcm 2013

says enough i think. its only the first version and the problem whit fighet and all the rest will be fixed in a new version
No, it says nothing to me. Like I said, the game cannot handle high FL stat, so what are you trying to show?


I also hate it if a "database" changes the looks of the game. How hard can it be to create a separate graphic pack? And who added these round flags to a interface which has straight lines.

And the stages don't belong in the CM_Stages folder, especially not overwriting the original stages of the game. Stages belong into the mod folder.

Furthermore I don't need 35MB of music. Please concentrate on creating a good DB before you add more stuff nobody needs.

And please be respectful. Cause after this post, I'm hitting myself in the face for kindly answering your stupid arguments (even more stupid if you're someone who makes database editors). If you don't know anything about the stats, don't speak about them. I don't know much about database editors (I use yours all the time btw), so I don't speak about them either.
 
Lachi
Stupid arguments? It took me at least an hour to install your DB because I had to compare all of the files in your pack to the original files to prevent messing up the game.

I don't like to be forced to look at your images and to listen to your music. You are unrespectful to force me to use them.

And no, I did not use random potentials. I checked it several times and I tried it several times. Also it happened to all riders, young and old. It must be related to potential and/or your XML files because it does not happen with other DBs + other XML files.

I do not understand how could you come up with that
Michal Kwiatkowski is a worse time trialist (78) than Rigo Uran (79) ? When did Kwiatkowski lost to Uran?
 
hbttw
Rigoberto Uran won a time trial in this years Giro. Kwiatkowski wasn't there, but still Uran is a good time trialist!
 
Dusen
Don't have this DB, but Uran made an amazing timetrial in the Giro, and i think he is basing his stats on that.

Kwiakowski i also very good, but he seems to be a lot better on prologues or shorter timetrials on 15-20 km

Uran also went second in Tour de Romandie last timetrial, only 5-6 seconds slower than Froome.

So can't say i disagree completly with his choice Smile

You are free to use this database, so I don't understand why you are talking about 'being forced'. At least you can show some respect, mister Lachi.

So in your opinion I am not allowed to tell my opinion out of respect for their work?
Be assured, I respect their work, but I don't like it.


It is OK to release testversions but please tell us so. It would have prevented me from using an hour to get rid of all the images and music which came with this "database" but are not needed to play with this database.

I'm sorry Lachi but what the hell is your problem? You don't like the graphics, which are some of the main features and are shown on the screenshots. You evidently don't like the stat matrix which has been used by the PCMFocus DB for a long time and which is basically the thing that makes this DB unique. That is all well known, and yet you download the DB and complain about it? Or maybe just to complain about it?

No doubt that you can tell your opinion, but as someone who has spent quite some time recently lecturing people in the PCM14 General forum, you might want to think about how useful it is to entirely dismiss the very basic features that constitute this DB.

I think that tha only problem is that almost every ryder is a Fighter, and that is false: they need to change that
 
ruben
the fear of every rider getting trained as a fighter is wrong though.

I've played through a lot of seasons in PCM 2013 with the same matrix. New GC talents, hill climbers, etc do appear a lot even if they get dubbed 'fighter' immediately

They mentioned realistic statistics but 80% of all riders are fighers. In my opinion, and I am not the only one, this is not realistic and ruins the career.

Of course we can continue to argue about my dislike of their graphics and music but that does not improve the main features of this package.

@Lachi Did you read the comment of Matthijs_Valverde (our Statter)???

He Said that the problems with that fighter thing of ypo are caused by a little bug in the db caused by converting from PCM 2013 to PCM 2014

You could show some respect and read the answers.

@Everyone stop spoiling our thread and try our db first before you give bad comments.

I tried the db, do I have your premission now to post bad comments Rolling Eyes

This will be my last post here.

1. I checked some of your files in Gui\race_logo and I found outdated images. Some images are redundant (tourduportugal is used in your DB but voltaaportugal is also there).

2. You deleted some german text from the local.cdb which made the game unplayble.

With these additional problems, you made me lose my respect for your work. And stop blaming me for negative comments, you published that DB.

I'm looking forward to play a database which is made by you.
