Hi,
Not sure if this is the right forum but I was unsure as I don't know what I'm going to be doing. I'd like to create from scratch an all Aussie cycling team on PCM 07 and I don't know where to begin. To explain it a bit more clearer this is what I want to do:
Create a completely new team (if possible, or I'll just 'edit' a existing team to my requirement).
Use pre-existing Australian riders (eg Evans, Rogers, O'Grady etc)
Create the team strip from scratch (I'll need photoshop but what else?)
Create or insert my own coaches,scouts etc
Create new sponsors.
So basically I just want to know what things I need to download to do this and what if any guides I need to read to learn how to do this. Also I'm currently using the PCM.DAILY 2.1 database and would like to retain that - would that be possible?
Thanks for you help,

Photoshop, maybe Paint.net if you want to as well. 99% of the work in Photoshop though

I don't like the guide I made for adding a team, that's why I didn't link to that one but it might help you...

Right sorted that problem out although now after looking through all the different tables etc its left me even more bamboozled. Sure I can 'add' a new team but I can't make any understanding of all the other coulmns, do you leave them blank and just fill in the first few? Really confused by it all. |
