http://www.noos.fr/animat(...)patch12r_install.exe Mirrors: 
Mirror 1 - hosted by CGC (www.c-g-c.dk) 
there are mainly bugfixes. 
improvements of AI and gameplay will be in the next patch! • (Database) In the race interface the Young Riders rankings were shown, in some races, in place of the sprinters ranking 
• (Database) Hed Jet 40 wheels. Correction to texture display 
• (Database) In the calendar, for the Tour of Catalonia, the first stage (Team time-trial) was not shown and only 7 stages were displayed, even if the team time-trial is, in fact, in the game when the Tour of Catalonia is ridden. 
• (Database) Correction to Meta Volantes sprints on the Tour of Catalonia which gave neither points nor time bonuses. 
• (Database) Several modifications to rider attributes 
• (Editor) Possibility to change weather preferences, rider potential, initial team budget, ……… 
• (Team time-trial) Starting order decided by reverse race ranking and not alphabetic order 
• (Backup) Backups are themselves backed-up for increased security. The game no longer bombs if a back-up is corrupted. 
• (AI tour) The game’s AI now fights to protect the sprinter’s jersey. 
• (Management) Rider recovery was not correctly updated when a player simulated the first stage of a tour or a race. 
• (Management) Staff contracts finish correctly. 
• (Race) Putting the game into the background no longer cause it to stop. The host cheat whereby a player used an Alt-Tab to slow other players no longer works 
• (Motor) Correction to slow loading times (several minutes to move between days) with certain low-end video cards. 
• (Multi) In the ladder, all current players are now accounted for and those having disconnected are no longer shown. 
• (Junior rider rankings) 25 year-old riders are now counted in junior rider rankings. Those who’ll be 26 during the season no longer appear. 
• (Race) World Cup podiums no longer bomb 
• (Race) The correct jersey is shown in the team rankings 
• (Management) It’s no longer possible to have more than 25 riders. The bug that prevented the “dismiss riders” pop-up from appearing has been corrected.
