It's weekend, everybody - you know the drill!
Show your PCM skill in the online league
For those of you who'd like to try out your PCM tactics against other PCM.daily members: good news! Thanks to a new collaboration project launched last week, you will be able to do that, on a weekly basis. The initiative slipped past my eyes when putting together the last edition of the news, but I hope this push will make the creators forgive me for the miss! ;-)
Every Saturday night at 8 PM (GMT), an online room called 'PCM.daily Online League' will be open on Armada. Anyone who feels like can join and compete for the points that will be given to the most successful players. Those will then be put together in a ranking, to decide who is the best PCM player on the site. What are you waiting for? Go check out all the details and prepare for lots of fun!
'Cycling Manager Evolved' poised to give Cyanide some competition
After previously working with both stagemaking and creation of PCM databases, Danish member T-Photon recently announced his latest endeavour - which is possibly also the biggest project ever on the site: a brand new cycling game!
Using his knowledge in the field of software technology in combination with ideas and wishes from other members, he intends to build everything from scratch - with many of the things that we would like Cyanide to fix or add to PCM included. Imagine a cycling game with not only 3D graphics, but also a realistic gameplay and a detailed career mode! Show your support and leave good ideas and potential features in this thread, and it might become reality within just a few years!
Plenty of 'new' DBs now available from the downloads section
Whether you're looking to improve your career mode, play with riders from a different era, a different universe, or even cartoons, movies and other games - you can now find everything you need in the site's downloads section. Earlier this week, CrueTrue uploaded a whole bunch of DBs you might previously have overlooked, so go take a look!
Leon40 takes realism in stages to a whole new level
One of many struggles when it comes to creating stages is getting cities, climbs and other locations in game to resemble the way they look in real life. Generic cities just wont give you the distinct look that certain places have. However, Leon40 (toto40) seems to have found a way to successfully adapt real places into PCM, in stunning style!
After spending what I can only assume was an insane amount of time spent on every stage, the French member has started putting together a Vuelta a EspaƱa variant to add to an already finished variant of the Tour de France - among other things. His thread takes a bit of time to load, due to a large amount of pictures, but believe me - it's worth the wait once you get to see the landscapes they show! |
