I tried a search but it seems nobody has experienced this.
To put it quickly, this is how my strategy window appears: (see attached file)
I have also tried to play the game anyway, but in-race it appears blank too. Everything else works fine. If I set the cyclists to auto, they simply keep their position all the time.
Even after playing the race, on the 2nd day the strategy still appears empty.
I have tried to keep simulating and I can take part at the Quinghai lake road just fine (I mean that I do see the strategy there).
So after some thinking I used Lachi's editor and went to check:
DYN_race_status
and, indeed, there is no trace of my riders at the tour de france for some reason.
So my last resort seems to be to manually compile it... except it looks pretty hard .
I've tried to look at how that table appears when you're doing other races but I couldn't get anything from that =(. In particular, my main concerns are fkIDsimulate_status (for example while doing the Qinghai I had one cyclist with a "3", one with a "4" and the others with a "1". fkIDprevious_simulation was a mirror of the previous one, and fkIDsimulate_tactic also leaves me confused (I had two "6", two "4" and the rest "1".
Last, I have fkIDcyclist_chief with all "23" and two "24" and two had "0".
I guess these numbers indicate who's the leader, maybe... and in the end, the main mysterious one is bit_orders where I had various "32", one "42", one "52".
Once again this was me looking at data while racing the Qinghai Lake Road.
So it could be not useful at all.
Anyone has any idea?
I don't know what to do, it's pretty much a pain to play the whole TdF without ever being able to let them on auto :/
p.s. yes, I have already tried weekly saves. No matter what, when the TDF comes I always get an empty strategy panel.
Did you plan your riders for the TdF?
If not, try to edit a weeklysave from before the TdF and edit your riders in DYN_team_race. The last column should hold the list of riders you want to send to the TdF.

Thanks a lot, you were spot-on it seems! That fixed it!
edit: I think I understand what happened now: months ago, I forgot to ask for the wild card to the TdF. When I realized, it was too late as I realized it when the card list came out >_>
I had several cyclists who planned their season on it so it was pretty though to just ignore it.
So I had to go on and edited my team in changing the 7 into a 9, but I guess I messed up something there, maybe I edited another team ? =|
So it was probably my fault, but I did not know I had to put in my cyclists in that field, and now everything is fixed. Thank you ^_^
