Pretty basic tool for creating startlists for the new PCM game. You can either build one from scratch manually or you can let them be automatically generated from Cyclingstartlists.com. It's not very thoroughly tested nor coded but it does the trick. I promised this tool to Aab-ern already some time ago but never got to it (sry for the wait dude).

Things you need:
- .NET Framework 3.5 - download here -
- SQL Compact Edition 3.5 DLL - download here -
- Eyolfur's Advanced editor for PCM4

Getting started
First thing you need to do after you installed the tool is import the DB for wich you want to create startlists for. You only need to do this once, the values are stored for the next time you start the tool. I always use a savegame for importing, so just start a new career if you need to. Click the 'Import new DB' and the steps shown there should be pretty self explanatory. (You'll need to tell the tool the folder in wich the exported XML files reside)

Creating startlists
As stated before, you have two options; start from a blank list and manually add/remove riders by doubleclicking either the selection panel on the right(adding) or double clicking rider names in the startlist itself(removing). You can also let the tool automatically generate a list from cyclingstartlists.com. To do this click 'New startlists from web' and browse to the appropriate race you want a list for. Click Import this startlist and the tool will try to analyze and match the cyclists on the webpage with the ones in your DB. This takes some time (on an average PC about 2-3 minutes). After the analyzing is finished you'll see a grid with all the teams in the list first and then the riders. For each team/cyclist there will be an icon on the left that will tell you if and how accuratly a match have been found. 4 or 3 green bars are direct matches or synonym matches (synonyms can be added by checking the synonym box when a match has not been found and selecting the right team/cyclist from the drop down list, obvious examples are: Team Colombia = Team Highroad, Scott - Beef = Saunier Duval, Denis Menchov = Denis Metsjov etc.) Any matches with less bars are approximate matches.

Due to the fact that the site uses another html markup for about every race it sometimes will fail to analyze the page properly. For ex. for the latest races on there change the 'style tag of teamname styles' in the configuration menu to style13 instead of style18. There are a couple more variables you can change should the analysis fail.

Exporting the actual startlist xml files
Simply click the 'export startlist' button and the xml file is automatically created. No need to rename it either since the file will get the appropriate name from the XML Name column for the race you selected.
