Help adding variants
Flanker
Hey guys, I'm in the fourth year of my career and I tried to add a variant pack.
So I put the files in the correct locations, started a new career and copied the "DYN_Variant_date" table to my existing career. But since I was in December 2014 I thought I had to change the gene_i_date in DYN_variant_date to somewhere in January 2015 using UNIX timestamp right?
I did this, but I didn't get the ingame message that the new courses were available. And at first glance, the TdF is the same. (Starts in Rotterdam)
Any idea what went wrong? Or shouldn't I have changed the gene_i_date?
Or do I have to change something in the rules.xml files?

You have to continue in the career. the variants should be presented by mail. they don't just change at the first of January.

Thanks, but I already continued my career, I'm now riding the Tirreno-Adriatico, so I'm in mid-March. Should I have gotten the message already or is there nothing to worry about (yet)?
 
Lachi
I do not know the variants you added but normally it should have happened already.

Oh wait a minute, I looked at the rules.xml from the Tour and I saw this:
<defined year="2011" variantMin="2" variantMax="2"/>
<defined year="2012" variantMin="3" variantMax="3"/>
<defined year="2013" variantMin="4" variantMax="4"/>
<defined year="2014" variantMin="1" variantMax="1"/>
<defined year="2015" variantMin="2" variantMax="2"/>

I'm in 2015 now, and I guess this means that this is a rotation system and this year I get the same stages as in 2011 right? Hm, than it's just bad timing on my part and I'll have to wait for next year...

Also it`s not just DYN_variant_date.
It`s also DYN_Variant_stage.

You need to copy both tables.
 
Flanker
Yeah I forgot to mention, but I also did that Wink
I guess my problem is just the rotation system though.

If you haven`t started the January races yet, you could try to load a weekly save from December and then change the rules and do it again.
