Rider generation naming problem
The Hobbit
I have edited my database using Lachi's editor so that countries with 0 weight like Iceland and Indonesia can produce scout talents by changing 0 to 1. It sort of worked and now young riders are produced but for some reason all riders are called TODO FIRSTNAME TODO LASTNAME. Could someone please tell me what I need to edit do the game can attach names randomly to these talents as everything works but the names, and I would rather not rename them all manually each season as I am not very creative name wise. I am exceptionally greatful for your response so I can sign them with realistic names.

You have to add a list of possible names for each country in the Regen.xml file. But this will only work for riders generated in the next seasons.

Already generated riders have to be edited manually in the save in the tables DYN_young_cyclist or DYN_cyclist (if the already received a contract).

The file is located in Program Files/Cyanide/PCM12/Xml/YoungRiderCarac.

You could check if the names are in davidov's regen.xml, if yes you can just copy them to yours:

I'm sorry I have opened this file but it appears to be a web page for some reason.

Not only can I not edit it I find it rather confusing, this is an example:

-<OMA>
- <default>
<rider>NAME</rider>
''
"
"
Then default then it says
OMA again. Now this is just Oman, but I am confused, is there an order I must place the countries in or something?

If I understand correctly I have to repeat this code into new countries but where and more importantly how?

Thanks for your patience, I recognise I am stupid with these things so I thank you for your time!

The file can be opened with notepadl

As for how it works, isn't there an explanation in the first lines? Pfft

<!-- format is :
<country_CONSTANT>
<region_CONSTANT>
<rider>rider1</rider>=> rider names of the region
<rider>rider2</rider>
</region_CONSTANT>
<rider>rider1</rider> => default rider names of the country
<rider>rider2</rider>
</<country_CONSTANT>
<rider>rider1</rider> => default rider name if the country is not well provided
<rider>rider2</rider>
-->


Few regions have it's own names, though, most countries just have the country one.

So for example:
(first half of the file = last names)
<ICE> (or whatever Iceland's constant is in STA_country in the DB)
<default>
<rider>Iceland surname 1</rider>
<rider>Iceland surname 2</rider>
<rider>Iceland surname 3</rider>
...
</default></ICE>

Then the same for the 2nd half of the file, but there you'll add the first names. And the same for Indonesia and the other countries.

There's no irder in which the countries have to be placed. Just make sure that they have surnames added (between the "<gene_sz_lastname>" and "</gene_sz_lastname>" - first half of the file) and first names added (second half of the file).

Any ideas what CUW stands for, or at least where to find out.
Never mind, its CuraƧao apparently, and I remember where to find names for all constants local.cdb.
