Hi
I'm playing with a custom team on a customized DB based on the latest PCMdaily expansionpack.
I am now in 2005, on October 24th. As you might know cyclist change teams and all on October 25th. The problem that I have is when it turn October 25th my teamsponsors differ (even though the contract expires in 2099). I get 2 new sponsors (Joker & Euskatel) and the very nice budget of these sponsors of € 0.
Has anyone experienced this before? How can I handle this?
Here is the weekly save: https://uploading.com/files/ecf1d243/C...10-24.cdb/

The issue is simply that you have signed two sponsors. You can only sign one.
You can change your finances in DYN_manager, gene_f_solde or something like that. |

No, that's just the thing, I didn't do anything about the sponsors. Every sponsor contract only expires in 2099 (like said in the first post), so both sponsors should sponsor me until 2099.
And because none of these sponsorcontract were done this season I never contacted and certainly not contracted other sponsors... That's what the strange thing about this is.
- Edit -
Just tried to remove my secundairy sponsor but the game still gives me both sponsors Joker & Euskatel, which I don't want...

Did you edit the sponsor contracts? Because normally the contracts don't last until 99.
If you did edit something, then obviously you did it wrong. Same goes for your edit about removing the secondary sponsor. What did you edit? |

All I edited about the sponsorcontract is that every team has it's sponsor until 2099. I did not want any sponsorchanges so I've set them all to expire in 2099 (+ year_max to 2099).
For the secondairy sponsor removel I just removed the sponsor from the DYN_team table, and I know the contract still runs then, but it was just to test if that secondairy sponsor was messing up the sponsorchange... I think if you look inside that weeklysave that I uploaded you won't find much irregularities when it comes to sponsorcontracts... Feel free to tell me if you do though |

You don't have to edit the weeklysave, that is just a backup. If you want to edit your career, then go to: my documents\pcm11\users\your name\database\solo\name of DB\ |

Yes, I know, but I wanted to check if it was my secundairy sponsor who messed everything up the 25th, so I edited the backup (thus weeklysave) since the last weeklysave was October 24th but when it turned to the 25th I still had the same problem.
Where can you see if there would be any sponsorcontracts for next season? I've looked in DYN_sponsor but Joker was only there once for the team it is sponsoring this season.
I just checked DYN_team on October 25th, it seems that it changed everything: Joker is now my sponsor but also someone else's, it changed my teamname, main sponsor, co-sponsor, country... Everything, without any reason =/.
My sponsor (Nokialized) has disappeared even though my contract lasts until 2099. So I know it's possible to edit things again but if I could just delete the next years sponsorcontracts or something so that it doesn't change things could be solving itself, I think.

So you are saying that the game messed up your team at the end of the season.
I have seen this before when running some tests. In my case it was because the team was in huge debts.
So this might held:
Open the weekly save from before the end of the season in an editor. Fix the budget. Load this fixed save in the game.
And to answer your question, the information about the next years sponsor contracts are in DYN_team in the two columns value_i_sponsor_future. It is a calculated value. You can find the formula in this forum. (use the search) |

I will check the formulathingy, thanks!
I'm not in debt at all, I have like 8 or 9 million euro's! If that's in debt big time on my bankaccounts 
-Edit-
Alright, so if I understand correctly (not good with numbers) and I apply what is said in this post: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....pid=457039
if I want to keep my sponsor and I want for example 10.000.000 from that sponsor next year, I'd have to put 65536.10000 in that column. Is that correct or not?
I just checked what's in that column and I had only put the budget I wanted next year

Your suggestion seems totally off.
I never did this but I am pretty sure it works like this: 65536 multiplied with the sponsor ID + Budget
Example:
Sponsor has the ID 20 and pays 500000
(65536 x 20) + 500 = 1311220
BTW: Now you know why the game did it. You told it do to so by putting a strange number in there.
