Adding Races and Stages
By: lluuiiggii | Average Rating: 4.71 | Game version: PCM12 1. Export the stages from the Stage Editor, which should give you a .zces and a .cds file.
2. Open the DB with an editor (not the Official one, as mentioned in the description), more specifically table STA_race. Add a new line with a new (unused) ID, and fill the tables: gene_sz_race_name: Name of the race gene_sz_race_name_nolicence: Just put the same thing of the above one gene_sz_race_abbreviation: Abbreviation name of the race which will appear in the Calendar + Season Planner (it can't be too big, check with the other names to have an idea of the word size) gene_sz_filename: the names of the stage files. Check here to know how to name it correctly. fkIDcountry: well.. the country - see STA_country for the country IDs fkIDnewUCIclass: choose the category of the race: 1.HC, 2.1 - see STA_UCI_class for this fkIDseason_class: 0 First and last stage: the IDs of the first and last stages (if it's a classic, they'll be the same), which should be IDrace + 1000*stage_number gene_f_popularity whatever you want the popularity of your race to be gene_i_number_stages: number of stages of your race, 1 if it's a classic game_b_isactive: make sure it's ticked/has a 1 gene_sz_mail_organisateur: email of the organization, put whatever you want gene_ilist_fkID_team: list of teams that will appear when you play your race in single play and choose 'Real teams' fkIDLastRaceLeader: 0 constant: whatever you like - basically it only defines the name of the race logo file, if you have one (* the race logo file should be placed on Program Files/Cyanide/PCM11/Gui/race_logo) local_temp_count: 0 gene_sz_classification_xml: the file that will set the bonuses (points for points/KoM classement, time bonuses, etc).. normally each race category has one, and the major races have their own. gene_f_organisateur_coeff: 0 gene_b_aso: organized by ASO or not; gene_b_ForceProTour: if ticked (1 instead of 0), Pro Tour teams are forced to participate in the race.
3. Now go to STA_stage. This one should be much easier: IDstage: same thing -> IDrace + 1000*stage_number fkIDrace: ID of the race fkIDregion: region of the stage (see STA_region) Gene_i_day and month: well... day and month gene_i_stage_number: number of the stage in the race, if it's a classic it's 1 gene_b_selected: 1 fkIDclimat: the climat of the stage, take a look in STA_climat for the values All others: zero, or nothing in case of the Constant column
4. Place your stages (.zces and .cds files) in Program Files/Cyanide/PCM12/CM_Stages (a different path to the main PCM folder if you have the Steam version, but anyway it should be Main PCM folder/CM_Stages).
* If you've read somewhere that the stages should go to My Documents/PCM12/Mod/Stages, that was the original plan, but Cyanide never got it to work and the last patch that theorically would change this (1.3.0.5) was never released by Cyanide, so CM_Stages is where you should place the stages.
5. Export the DB, place it in My Docs/PCM12/Mod/Database and choose it in game. Good luck!
If you have any questions, you can ask in the forum, where it's easier and faster to see and answer
#5: fkIDtype_tour is the type of race it is (cobbles, flat classic, stage race with mountains, stage race with mountains + time trial, etc) , for the AI to settle favorites, etc. The values which correspond to each type can be found in table STA_type_tour.
"I followed these instructions but i just can't find it in the game, i have no idea what i have done wrong" same here... the new stages are abble to play as Single Stage, but not as Career Mode. I think there's something worng about the calendar plan, but i can't understand what if someone could help that would be appreciated
It's fantastic that it can have an impact on something as significant as college entrance. I also value any input that would enable me to become a better player. Such knowledge is really beneficial to me as a student in improving my writing abilities. I also utilize research proposal online to get ready for challenging tasks. However, I want to keep improving as a writer. And in this case, your suggestions would be really beneficial.
