Even though I have been a little ill last week we still have the weekly news to do ;)
Story round up Last week was a little sad for our newly started story section. The most viewed story, the T-Mobile Story by Alex134, was stopped because of a PCM-reinstall. We also had to say goodbye to the Red Bull Cycling Team-story by SportingNonsence, because it was too time-consuming.
On a more positive note, Crommy has now started his 2nd story. The new one is about Credit Agricolé and is more visually based than any other story so far. Check it out here.

New, interesting 2007 DB Another 2007 database has been released. I haven't heard other people mention it, but it does actually seem quite good and substantial. "Stanosbase07" is made by a Dutch forum member called Stanos Libre, and it contains - apart from the traditionals, of course - lots of graphical extras, the new World Championship-route, new sponsors, manager photos, 2007 calendar, etc.. The only con seems to be that the race names are in Dutch.
The DB is currently not available from PCM.daily, but it has its own website where you can find a lot more information and the download link. The website is in Dutch, but it should be partly understandable. Visit it here: http://www.stanoslibre.com/
05 Titan DB to be released soon A pretty ambitious historical database project is close to be released. The Titan05 Database will be a database based on the year of 2005 and will contain around 140 teams, 2500 riders, new equipment, more secondary sponsors, criteriums and much more.
The beta has just been released to the beta testers. It's expected to be released around the end of May.
Another ambitious 2007 project As announced on our forum, the German CyM Team has decided to make a 2007 database. With the database, they will open up a new website which - apart from hosting their database - will contain articles about how to make jerseys, databases, and more.
The database will contain a huge rider pictures pack, real faces of a lot of the riders in-game, 2007 race calendar, 2007 profiles / editions of a lot of races, and a lot more.
You can read more on our forum or by clicking here.
Rasmu89 finishes his DB Yep, it actually happened. Rasmu89 has announced that the v5 patch for his 2007 DB is the last one, and he considers his database completed .... but (yes, you guessed it) - a bug has just been found with the salaries, and that requires a new patch to be released.
Whenever he's done we will host his complete project here. But as long as the DB has a new patch out every day we will just wait until it calms down ;)

Thanks a lot for reading. And since you have used time on reading the above I have a little gift for you ;) During this week, we - the crew - hope to announce a new initiative which we have been working on for a few weeks. Look forward to it - it's innovative :) |
