Weekly News #95
Weekly News

With the awaited Daily DB released last Thursday, there's little doubt regarding the biggest news of this week. However, I'm assuming most (if not all) of you are already aware of that, so no need to include it here, I guess!

Windows 8.1 and older PCMs no good mix

The new Windows 8.1 operating system may bring some new features, but for those of you who are still enjoying PCM12 or an even older version - it might be worth thinking twice before updating. Why? It's simple - the games wont run. The problem was first noticed by emmea90, who reported to Cyanide - who confirmed the issue.

PCM13 does on the other hand work with 8.1, but only through running PCM.exe and PCM-protection.exe as an administrator.

Buckle up - the European cycling season is over

For those of us living in Europe, it's time to say goodbye to the 2013 season. Today's Chrono des Nations events marked the final stop on the calendar. While Tony Martin enjoys yet another win, us fans will have to start preparing for how to survive the next couple of months without any races to watch. Is it January yet?

Plussbank reaches 2014 while The Comeback makes a comeback

After starting out all the way back in late July, Froomedog99's Team Plussbank story has now built up an entire season's headstart as the Norwegian squad advances into 2014 after a first year steered by the talented Sondre Holst Enger. The new year's racing is yet to begin, but there are some great-looking squad previews to check out before then. Click here to have a look right away!

In the meantime, an (not so) old friend has made its return to the site: Mresuperstar's "The Comeback"! After rapidly speeding past 30 pages during June and July, the popular story took a temporary break to wait for the Daily DB to be released. Stop by and welcome Travis Newton back!

In the News Grin

Thanks for the mention Pelli. Hopefully the story can kick on now that I've finished a season.

Finally no Man-Game or Stages/Stage makers in news. Pfft

European season over, but wait... whats that!... It's the (as made famous by tsmoha) NRS!!! Awesome action throughout the winter months
(also i appear to be ad man for other peoples stuff now o.O)

If Cyanide are clever they'll cut PCM13 prices for a bit and cash in as people are more willing to switch the new version. Simple economic theory which will work out best for everyone!

While it's nice to see stories mentioned, especially when they've reached a big milestone (such as Plussbank) but just because it's started up again, not such a fan of that. Why not Rapha-Rouler by the_hoyle? Why not Telecom-Ecobank? Not being picky but i'm not a fan of singling out one story when a few others are doing the exact same thing. And also why not mention the NRS entering 2014? (mentioned for fairness... now it looks like i'm ranting... sorry)

Also EPIC actually kicking off as well is pretty cool.

Yes, EPIC should've been included Wink

Still a nice article once again, Pelli Smile

Is TMM ever positive?

It's perfectly fine to tip Pelli throughout the week.
#7 | timpiej on 20. October 2013 21:44
No races? Check the cyclocross races!
#8 | TheManxMissile on 20. October 2013 22:39
I can be very positive... but yeah that didn't quite come off as intended. As always it was very well written, and those two stories are great, just reminding people of some other great stuff they might not have seen.
Great writing Pelli (as it has been for the last 9 weeks) hope i didn't offend you, as that was not the intention

Don't worry about it, Manx Wink

I should really research the stories forum a bit more for these news articles, but I just don't have as much free time as I did a few years ago. Will do my best to have a look through the threads a little more frequently in the future.

Thanks for the bigging up of the story TMM Wink muchly appreciated
#11 | roeney98 on 21. October 2013 16:25
At my computer, pcm2013 doesn't work either. If i run as administrator it gives an 'internal error'. Does anyone have a tip?
#12 | 547984 on 21. October 2013 23:09
Win8 SUCKS!

(sorry for being Capt. Obvious)

In the off season, just do what I do - download and obsessively watch through all of the classics from the season just gone. It gets you excited for next season and also refreshes your memory.
