Incoming Mail

Whenever mail comes in, the New Mail indicator will be displayed at the upper left of the World Tour Map screen. Press the tQ button to open your mailbox and CV to select the mail to read. Your coach and other players will often mail you

Tour Calendar

offered by other players will also automatically be placed in the schedule, identifiable by the player’s icon.

Finishing the Game Mode

Press the START button and select Yes to exit the mode and return to the Main Menu. Remember to save your progress first, as any unsaved changes will be lost.

HOME

Come here to rest your player, change gear and manage your World Tour Player Data. The complete player status and parameters are displayed on the right side of the screen for your reference.

Change Gear

Select Change Gear from the Home menu to change clothes and put on accessories received as prizes, and from players, sponsors, the coach, and the SPT Administration.

Rest

To recover your player’s stamina select Rest from the Home menu, then select from the following:

Energy Drink: Instant recovery, but increases player fatigue.

Home: Takes one week of your schedule.

Reduces fatigue slightly.

Vacation: Takes three weeks of your schedule. Reduces fatigue.

Managing Data

Select Save to write the current game progress to your storage device or Load to continue with a different World Tour Player Data. Please note that this is the only way to save your World Tour Player Data. Progress will be lost if you exit without saving.

STAMINA

Attempt training and competitions while your stamina gauge is at zero and you will not be able to play to full capacity. Continue to push your player in this state and the additional fatigue can easily lead to an injury or worse.

Make sure your player gets sufficient rest when stamina is low.
