I am playing PCM 2013. I am using the PCMdaily Database with British teams and NC from 2012. I am playing as Raleigh.
I played through to August 2014 without a problem, when it crashed in a race free period in August. The precise date was 12/8/14. I read on the forums and wound back to December 2013 and this time got to 12/8/15 before I experienced the same problem. Again I wound back to December but this time I had the same problem.
I then gave up on this save and started again. I uninstalled PCM and the databases and then did everything all over again. This time I got to 16/8/15 when it crashes.
I cannot see any reason for this. Again I have a race free period in the calendar. I extended my sponsor (Raleigh) for another 2 years. I have a positive balance.
Please help me, I am quite furious with the game and feel like just giving up on it.
A small hint: You can edit your post. So no need to double post.
I am not sure if I understood your description correctly.
Does it alway happen with the same race (Namur ITT) or is this just the latest crash?
Does it happen with the official database also? Or did you never try it with the official database? (If it only happens with the pcmdaily DB, then please post here: https://www.pcmdai..._id=29983)
Generally there are three main reasons for a crash: 1. The stage files are broken / 2. The classification file is wrong / 3. There are two many teams or riders in the race.
If the crash doesn't happen on the same race always, this rules out the first two. The third one normally only happen, if you edit your save but maybe there is also a bug in the game.
The easiest solution to check either of these problem is the following:
1. Try to play the bugging stage in the single stage mode. If it crashes, replace the file with a working one. If it still crashes, replace the classification file.
3. Open your save with an editor and check the team participation in the table called DYN_team_race. (I forgot how many teams are allowed, so cannot give you more detail here.)
I tried playing the offending Namur ITT stage in single player and the Kemmel ITT stage and both cause my game to crash. They are both on the Eneco Tour. It was the Kemmel ITT stage that was causing my game to crash last time.
I will post on the pcm daily db thread to notify them of the problem. Though if it is corrupt stages, then I'm surprised no one else has come across it.
Please can you help me further Lachi and explain how I replace the file with a working one. I'm afraid I am a bit of a noob when it comes to doing things like this!
If the problem is in the Eneco tour, then you can download the fix here: https://www.cyanid...mp;t=14981 (in case you don't understand french, you can find the download in the last post)
You're welcome. But it would have been very easy for you to find the solution yourself.
There are two threads about the very same problem only 5 and 9 threads below yours.
