The artist does this themselves. Various reasons for this. You can only do this by sending them to training, they return once that has finished.

So what the game does just so you know. If you select a file outside of the folder it will make a copy and place into the cdcovers folder and refer to that one.

Defiantly bug! I will need to fix that. I'll add to do on Fridays patch. Apologises

So its a mixture of things to produce the end song as its the whole process. Without giving a full breakdown we have: Artist themselves - various stats Producer Studio Mixer Vocal producer Genre type To name the main ones. I am by no means saying its working perfect as you the players feedback will direct where this goes I will just need to get a bit more information to tweak anything. As for adding mixers, this could be a problem with the editor. If you load the database do you see the mixer you added in the editor now?

Ok thats real info love it. I'll have a look. The manager will push for more if high greed on artist and also if manager is like that. Looks a bit OTT though.

Music world - solo or bands - financial - offer contract. some will do quick deal others might have other offers and consider for few days.

Any problems with saves email me them and ill see whats wrong. admin@theroad2success.co.uk

Believe both things are fixed next patch

There is a chance the problem is related to the threading issue and creating new saved games. So please send me the save and if it is that then I will have to sort out a change in how the game saves.

Believe fixed singles problem. Wendy one is lack of news which im looking into but longer term problem from looks of it.

Was this artist Taylor swift in your save as I see no problems here at all. 23 songs listed on the list. You have to click down to add to lower list to keep going. One of your bands had 10 songs but then again they only had 10 songs.

Just tried this and worked. Can you confirm if it moved a copy of the file into the CDCovers folder?

The second part is a bigger concern. Can I see a save of that and you tell me what artist?

I can do very little with posts like this, wont move forward until get more information. Was database edited? Did it ever save? Can you send over the save?

New stock is working, I will sort the tick boxes at later patch as im prioritising other things.

I know its impossible for him to create a real life database if the game is free. As an example, none of the sponsors are real, but it doesn't bother me, it's easily editable, but I criticize the fake artists forcefully inserted in the game. I don't think it's fair when you're playing as Eminem to sell less records than a fake Portuguese rapper in the United States and to lose a Grammy to a fake Lebanon rapper who has 100 ability. There's also a lack of polish when it comes to the database. Graham Norton and Jonathan Ross are there, but none of the American late night shows are in the game. Ellen DeGeneres is a man and not contracted to her show, X-Factor is in the game, but none of the judges are and that's just what's crossing my mind. I think it would have been beneficial for the game to have a more polished database instead of the gossip show, because it's almost a miracle for it to involve a real life talent and not two random Kenyan pop singers. I understand Mark is working all alone on this game and he did a tremendous job for the game in general and I'm happy to play it, but these little details bother me. I've asked the community for their help in the database, but not many people expressed interest. I love the game, I truly do, but I want it to be even better. Let me give you an idea exactly why this happens. I know I cannot sit here and produce 2000 artists and make the database balanced enough for various things to work so I have to think what can I do. So random artists yes, random artists that cover the continents/countries yes, multiple criteria to try and add realism yes. UK is more prone to have certain genres such as indie but Afgan artists are unlikely to do indie music. Age ranges, balance of sexs, maybe one genre prefers one sex to other. What people dont like is people they dont know but for this game to work they must exist unless someone produces a well balance genre list of artists/bands. I have to think of the bigger picture im afraid. Finally data entry mistakes will always happen, those I will correct as and when mentioned. Cant wait to see any databases you (or others) produce, it will be great to see and play games with them.

Ive added a safetly net to mixer selection,should sort this one.

Fixed next patch

I believe ive found your issue and fixes for tonights patch.

Ive made next version force user to run in administrator mode.

It does happen but it works like AI artists its regulated so to speak but I can assure you it happens. Remember most artists release one album per year maybe 2 on average. Releases come off of the back of this album.

hmm ok not sure if I can make it do that by default ill have a look into it.
