Currently working on a global combined schedule, similar to the one I created for SO4, however I have a question.....after much experimenting, I found that by restricting all the G3's and G2's for older horses (3UP,4UP) using the condition "notwongroup=1", it made the G1's much more competitive. Would I still need to do that for SO5, as the game engine has changed from what i've read in the posts?
Also, I will be editing all the showcases, as well as the Sched_fj file, so what's the best way to make these available on Mediafire, so that it's easy for others to download and use??

P.S. I only play the Combined Schedule, as I enjoy having the best of both worlds

It is now built into the game's AI that in a given season if a horse is placed in the top three in a race of a particular grade, it will only concentrate on races of the same grade or higher for the rest of the season. This works particularly well for 2yo and 3yo races.

Thanks Panther, thought i'd seen that somewhere on the forum's.

Anyone advise whether you can have more than six races at a meeting now??

Yes, you can now have up to eight races at feature meetings.

So have you got a combined schedule for so5 working? How did you do that?

prob designed from scratch fair play to you mate

Got a combined Schedule working, but just to warn everyone out there working, or thinking of working on one, I had to abandon it after about 5 seasons, as the jumps side of it went into meltdown, with runners in the feature races I created, but no runners in the supporting card!! Eventually this caused the game to crash repeatedly

Playing a flat only game at present using the shared bloodlines, until the combined game is fixed, to be fair SuperCat warned me it was buggy, but like I say it was fine to start off with

Post this on the bugs page, hopefully it will get fixed.
