put them in PCM 2006 as the Local.cdb

that's right, "Local.cdb", I know it sounds strange.

start PCM. it won't start, but a file will now be on the main PCM folder called "decompress". rename it to whatever you want. it's the unpacked DB.

- I put the pcm07 DB in the "solo" folder of the pcm06 game

- I start the pcm06.

- I click the "1 player" button

- The game crashes

- I go to the Pro Cycling Manager - Saison 2006

- I found the "decompress.tmp" file

- I rename this file to xxx.cdb (xxx= the name I want to put to my DB

- I open the DB with de Hannes editor.

Yes, that's right. You can also put the DB in PCM 2006 named 'OfficialRelease'; no problems there...
 
benna
Can you unpack the database if you don't have PCM06?
 
CrueTrue
Nope, but you might be able to convince some of us to do it Wink

What do you mean with that?
You make a tool for it or something?
 
CrueTrue
What I mean is that if you want a database unpacked you can ask here, telling us which DB to unpack and then someone might do it for you.

no, you could ask for CrueTrue (own-back for your 'bye-bye Britain' comment in that national rankings thingPfft) to unpack a db for you and send it to you, so you don't have to do it yourself

just had a look, can benna use this unpacked db

https://www.pcmdaily.com/infusions/pro...hp?did=178

if so then i will use it alsoWink
 
CrueTrue
It's the unpacked version of Cyanide's real name DB, so yes, that would work.

nice i'll use that, i might have to edit it a lot to make it almost acceptable thoughPfft
 
CrueTrue
Which means potential 8 to Cavendish, 85 in TT to both Millar and Wiggins, etc., ... Pfft

no, i'm not Sporting

Cav to 7 potential
Wiggins to 77 TT
Millar to 81

still may be too much in your eyes, but i only have my eyes to work with unfortunatleyWink
 
Addy291
man this things hard to work out
even after watching the 'tuto' i can't do it

What I really want is to unpack my saved database because the morale function in this game is way off. I let a young rider ride the Giro, and after some stages he gets depressed. He was very happy when the Giro started, he should have been "over the moon" for me letting him ride the Giro.

I guess im not Sporting either then. Thats what I would give them ~ although I did put Wiggins to 79 tt in SNDeluxe so that he would de fairly well in the prologue.


Whatare you stuck with Addy? I found it pretty easy to work out how to edit the basic stuff. German knowledge or not.
