With this hotfix we have addressed a few issues and tweaked the new resource preview panel's visuals a bit. Beyond that, a long-standing issue with the game not starting up for players of early versions should have been fixed.

Start-up Issue Fix

This affected anyone who had played the Demo Version 5 or earlier and wanted to try out the game in Version 6+. The simple solution to the game not starting was to remove the savegame folder, but the game did not do so automatically. It now should. So fingers crossed people coming back to check out the game again will not find it not starting up at all!

If you were playing the game just fine and you don't see your savegames anymore, they are safe and you can move them over to the new savegame folder to continue playing where you left off.

Your old saves are in: %LocalAppData%\\Cyclist\\legacy_saves
You new saves go here: %LocalAppData%\\Cyclist\\save_games

You can copy-paste that path with the % into your windows explorer path bar and hit enter to get there directly. Just copy over your savegames from legacy_saves to save_games if you know them to be working.

Note: We just hotfixed the hotfix with a little change to this startup fix. So if you still had problems, give it another go. :)

Demo Update 8.1 Hotfix

• Made the resource preview panel have bars for the stat use relative to the current max use
• Made the detailed resource preview have the respective datafield coloring unless it is maxed
• Implemented game startup routine that cleans up old-version save files
• Fixed issue with recovery not being shown correctly in the resource preview
• Fixed issue where rider group and position would go weird after interaction with the peloton
• Fixed tutorial 9 not being marked green after completion
• Fixed menu music restarting when entering the main menu after the splashscreen
• Fixed issue where relay riders in an A group merging with the peloton would go to P0

That should be it for Demo Update 8 and we're looking forward to getting the next set of improvements to you in the next few weeks.

Cheers!
