The first version of PCM.daily's 2014 DB has now been released.
The package is released as an upgrade to the existing Expansion Pack and thus includes all the features from the previous work. Needless to say, you will also find plenty of new 2014-exclusive stuff in the latest release.
The database comes with 92 teams, all with fully updated rosters. 61 of them will be riding in their new, shiny 2014 shirts - and you might as well take them around the new Giro d'Italia route of 2014 which is one of 18 updated races.
You will also find some new equipment and rider statistics of 2013.
We have also been working quite a lot on the rider stats of Continental riders, updating a lot of them to match their recent performances. In addition to this, we've revamped the free agents, deleting the retired riders and adding in new talents and great riders who were not already in the DB.
Lastly, it's also worth mentioning that we've been improving the generation of young riders. It's still in its early phase, but it should definitely make for some even more realistic career gaming now.
Convinced? Well, go straight to the download here.
As always, a huge thank you to the community for providing shirts, equipment and stages - and a special shout out to Jesleyh (stats, testing, a lot of database work), lluuiiggii (database work, graphics), Alakagom (palmares, stats), Maddrengen (graphics), Zecha (graphics) and Ruben (XMLs).

The PCM.daily DB team will now move on to the V2 which will include more of the same: more teams, more shirts, more equipment, more stages - and probably a few bug corrections. We aim to release this in March. |
