The PCM.daily database proudly presents our Expansion Pack for Pro Cycling Manager 2021. With this pack, we aim to give you the best mix of quality and quantity in content to improve your playing experience as much as possible.
Career Mode and Gameplay
- A total of 173 teams with up to date rosters and stats (as of June 23rd)
- More than 220 additional races - Correct dates for all races as far as they're available - Races that have been moved due to Covid retain their original spots in the calendar (e.g. Paris-Roubaix, Mallorca Challenge etc.) - Races that have not been held due to Covid in 2020 and/or 2021 remain on the calendar (e.g. London, Canada) - 2021 routes for many races, as well as many additional variants
- Tens of thousands of new authentic regen names covering all countries - More realistic distribution of new regens among countries; every country produces at least one rider per year - Slightly lower starting stats, but more variance / higher chances of hybrid riders
Graphics
- 2021 shirts for all WorldTeams and ProTeams (including many accessoires and NC shirts) as well as for most Continental teams - Updated rider photos for all WorldTeams and ProTeams as well as some Continental teams - Updated logos for many races - New logos for WorldTour and ProSeries replacing the CWT and PCT logos
Recommendations
To further improve your experience, we recommend taking a look at Davy Depuydt's Career Explorer as well as Jacky Durand's Sponsor Kits. To be clear, we did not have any hand in the creation of these tools, but we think they add to the enjoyment of the game. Check them out!
For both graphics and stages, so many files have been amassed over the years that it's impossible to give a complete list of contributors. If we've used your work without naming you in the credits, please contact us and we will add your name immediately!
In general, this work would not have been possible without the community at large that is putting in so much time and work to improve all of our game experience. Thank you all!
Note: For the first time, we've made our full Database available through the Steam Workshop. Take a look at the Steam installation guide further below if you're interested. If you want to install the DB through the forum as usual, follow these steps (there is zero difference in content or functionality):
2. Extract the files you downloaded. Everything from the Program Files folder goes into your main PCM directory, which is usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pro Cycling Manager 2021. When asked to overwrite files, say yes.
3. There is no longer a PCM folder in My Documents this year. Those files are instead in the hidden AppData folder. Type %AppData% into the address bar of your Explorer or while having the start menu open to get there. Then, open the directory Pro Cycling Manager 2021 and paste the folder Mod from the downloaded files in there.
4. In game, when starting a new race or career, select the PCM.daily Expansion Pack.
5. And that's it! Enjoy the DB. If you have any questions or issues, please use the Support Thread.
Be aware that replacing the local.cdb and the xml files concerning generated riders (in the RiderCharac folder) affects all running and future careers, not just those with the PCM.daily Expansion pack. We have included backups with the original files for both of those in the pack so you can replace our files again if you wish.
2. Click on "subscribe" and wait for the files to download.
3. When the download has been completed, go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Workshop\Content\1453850\2525741405
(or whatever the equivalent on your PC is if you did not install in the default directory)
You'll find a folder called Additional Files. Paste the three folders inside it into PCM's main directory (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pro Cycling Manager 2021). You need to complete this step to unlock our custom regen system as well as the changes from CYA World Tour to UCI WorldTour etc.
4. In game, when starting a new race or career, select the PCM.daily Expansion Pack.
5. And that's it! Enjoy the DB. If you have any questions or issues, please use the Support Thread.
