You can name it anything you want. If you want you team name to be Pac Man - Walmart, you just type that into the box. Many on this forum can make custom jerseys for your yeam. So be original...dont let us name your team. Think of a company or product you like. Start with something like that, if nothing good comes to mind...try another idea. I named on of my 1st teams I ever made after my cats....Shadow-Wraith. And at one time it was 2 names I found in a magazine.

If all of this isnt helping, not sure what to tell you. Maybe Google roman names or something like that. Just be original and open to names you/ideas.

Youll find a name you like, just look inside yourself.

Oh, ok you want to make it appear in the database as a formed team. To do that you have 2 methods, and the 1st isnt a 100% sure way it will work (you can alter or create a rider this way however).

Open the database, when start the game. You see a list of things that you can do. Play, Manual, DB Editor, Stage Editor. They appear in the box when you 1st click on the game to get it to come up.

Instead of clicking Play as you have been, you click DB Editor (I think thats what it says). It takes a min or so to comeup, so dont worry when it seems like it isn't loading.

Next, it will be a white screen with options on the top left. 1st you need to pick the language. I am guessing your from the USA, so in that case you want English.

Now, once your language is picked so you can read the file. Click on File. It will give a short list of things you can do. You want to click on OPEN CDB...meaning you are opening the games rider/team database.

Now, you'll have a list of riders on the left, and 3 tabs on the top of that list. 1 tab says Team (or similar), click it. And now your into the Team section of the database.

I have never made a fresh team, I always alter a current team. Just easier I think ,like I said this way is ALOT harder than method 2, and this one maynot work 100%. So pick any team you like, for an example I will say you pick SKY (also short for me to type lol).

You will see that SKY has many things like name of manager and stuff like that. You have the name you want for you team (I hope Wink ). Where it says SKY, backspace that and type your name in that spot (Team name).

Now, where it has spots for the shorter version of the team name...you guessed it type in you shortened team name.

Next you can pick a jersey, be it one someone made you or one already in the game.

I'm fast forwarding, because if you make it this far...you will see what needs done. At the bottom after everything is how you want it, click that nice button next to delete...but don't click DELETE!!!

Goto file, and click save CBD (might be CDB it's been a long day). As well as after you save it you have to name it. Then save the XML file, be SURE you have the XML saving to the same name you just put for you now changed CBD file.

Your now done, and if your lucky you can exit out of the editor, close the game out. Then restart, and Sky will not be in the game but the team you just switched it to will be. This works MOST times with riders, but not as often with teams.


OPTION 2, much easier and faster.

Download a database editor. https://pcmdaily.c...p?catid=81 There is a link to the one for PCM 2013. Take it for a test drive, as you can alter almost anything about a rider or team with it. Or, ask in the Database section how to use it right. Alot learn by trying stuff...others by a step by step guide.

TRUST ME, use the 2nd option. May take a day or so to get to the point you understand it well. But if you don't use it and try the 1st method...you may take an hour altering things. Then reload PCM and not 1 item you altered has changed...that is one of the worse feelings, and you wasted all that time too.

However to create a rider for a custom team, either work. Just don't alter the database too much. That is why I said use the editor. If you do too much editing, the database may not read things right and you will have freezing of the game, crashes and my least fav...having to uninstall and redownload the whole came and start from day1. NOT FUN!

Upload the database you want to use and the jersey(s) and name of the sponsor and the team, then I'll add it to the database.

Wait...you can do that? If so, I have a full team kit (minus frame) that I would love to have in the DB. Im in the US, so it pretty late. But tomorrow(later today) I plan to work on a frame to recolor and add it to the kit. Can you add it to the DB?

Here is the link for the kit. I havent been able to put it in game. But JAKSTAR created it, and he did it correct. Has to be where I have tried putting it. All you have to do is download and change the XXX in the file name to PVP.

The team name is PVP-YOUTUBE...only the pvp and the "Y" in youtube need to be in caps.

PCM would be great. Ill have to uninstall it, and reinstall the link you give me. But to have my team in it...it is worth it.

Thanks
