Hi guys!
Yesterday, I wanted to edit the PCM Spain DB for changing some teams.
But everytime, when I want to play the "new" DB the game crashes...
When i take the Cyanide DB, and change the same things - it perfectly works!
Is it possible, that some DB´s cannot changed by PCM Kicker?
Maybe they (which doesn´t work) were edited by Hannes Converter?
I hope you can handle with my bad english and the problem!
thanks a lot!
Greetings from Germany

You can edit any database in the Kicker, but it must be unpacked. If the size of the database is large then this is an indication it is unpacked, and can be used.
I think the PCM Spain db is already unpacked though, so the only thing I can think of is that you made a mistake whilst editing and caused the game to crash. Plus, the PCM Spain db is a lot larger than the original db so will b more prone to crashing after editing.
What exactly did you try to edit?

I simply edit all cyclists into new teams 
=> Fantasy Draft!
I tested the original Spain Pack DB and changed only the name of Bodrogi into Bodrogio.
After editing i save the access file -> Update selected (dyn_cyclist) -> Create new CDB -> import the new file into the folder (My Documents/Pro Cycling Manager/Database).
Select the new DB in the Game and the DB crashes when i have to choose the race...
Thanks for your help!

Why change Bodrogi into Bodrogio?
and yes I have resorted to asking "why" because I have no other explanation

It was simply a test. I also could change something else...
When I edit the PCM Spain Pack DB, it crashes...
When i do the same things to the original DB it perfectly works!
my logic: if the problem is the Kicker, it wouldn´t work with the original DB.
So it had someting to do with the Spain Pack DB. But when PCM have worked logically?

Hmm. One idea:
When you make changes to PCM Spain, make sure to save it as something else than OfficialRelease.cdb, for example MyDB.cdb, and put it in My Documents/Pro Cycling Manager/Database instead. |

I rename the DB everytime, so that isn´t the solution! But something else I recognize...
When i edit a DB a few times - every save procedure the DB lose 3-5 kB!
Maybe it´s nevertheless a Kicker problem?
Where could I find the Kicker Lite version to download?

You haven't downloaded the Kicker Lite? Oh well, that'll be the problem, maybe. I've always been under the impression you need the Kicker Lite installed first and then install the Kicker NG for it to function correctly. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what I've thought.
Anyway; click somewhere around here
I'd recommend deleting the PCM Kicker folder you have at the moment, installing the Kicker Lite, and then installing the Kicker NG

Today, I made a ultimate DB test with Kicker...
I took the DB´s of Sattlerei,PCM.daily,Wanka and PCMSpain Pack...
I changed the team of Bodrogi from Credit Agricole to Ag2R.
And this in every DB!
The result:
Spain Pack => Game crashes, than I have to choose the race!
PCM.daily => runtime error, at the same point!
Sattlerei => overflow error in PCM Kicker
Wanka => works perfectly!
But I want to edit the Spain Pack DB, because my friend and I have already pick our cyclists in a Draft. And he is going to kill me, when we have to draft again!
Every DB another phenomenon - I really go mad! 
Anybody an idea?
P.S: Do you all use Access 2000 to edit the DB? I use Access 2007, but it should be compatible...

Are you just switching rider's teams?
If so, just stick to using the Hannes Convertor, and if you don't/can't use it, just tell me what you want doing, and I'll give it a go

My goal is it to play against my friend in multiplayer the national championships...
So that I could play against him in multiplayer, I wanted to create 15-20 DB´s for each country...
For 20 teams a 20 cyclists is this not so much work, but the problem is the so called "nomination bug".
For example: When I create the DB of the Austrian championships (4cyclists), I only could nominate 2 cyclists (same for CPU controlled teams). This bug is obviously created by Hannes Converter. Somebody of the German Community said, that the problem isn´t available when you create the DB´s with the Kicker...
But you know the Kicker is also no choice for me!
very complicated...
I hope somebody has an idea!

To be honest I don't really understand what you're trying to do. i know you want to play multiplayer with a friend, but after that, you lost me.
I'm sure if I understood what you wanted to do, I could do it for you, or if indeed someone else does know what you want, they could do it as well. It's just a case of the Kicker liking some people and not liking others.

In a career you could play the national championships!
German champion, British champion, Italian Champ etc.
In Singleplayer or multiplayer you could only play the normal races like Tour, Vuelta Amstel Gold etc.
The difference is, that in national championships for example only Italian guys battle for the Italian championship and so on...
So i create an Italian DB, where only Italien guys pedal for their team.
So most teams have no cyclists or 1-5 guys. But this is obviously a problem in combination with the Hannes Converter.
I hope you could guess, what I mean...
If not, so look into this thread. Maybe the pics helps you to understand my problem... B)

So can't you just go into Hannes Convertor and delete all the, for example, non-Italian riders for your Italian DB
and then save it with a different name to the db you edited, then do the same for other countries?

Maybe it´s better you just look at my CDB for the Austrian Championship...
Their must be 4 cyclists in the DB...
B. Kohl => Rabobank
B. Eisel => CSC
G. Trampusch => Gerolsteiner
R. Haselbacher => Gerolsteiner
But you only could play with G. Trampusch, R. Haselbacher and sometimes B. Eisel -
B. Kohl is never available!
But please check it out...
Maybe you or somebody else have an idea to solve the problem!
