Posted by kroppyer Posts 346 Registered at 2010-02-05 15:25:55	2016-04-02 19:42:47 - Re: Converting a QtVLM route to brainaid DCs
	The dates need to be in English, so "arv." is not recognised. The solution is to get QtVLM to export the routes in English. I have quickly added an option that might help you. You can use this link (so long your DCs are in april): http://sol.kroppyer.nl/qtvlm2dc/?date_regex=/avr\./&date_replace=apr It automatically replaces "arv." by "apr" in the date field. This is a quick and dirty solution, and it won't work for many cases, just when "avr." needs to be replaced by "apr". But I can give a link to replace practically anything by anything else, when you have a new file that doesn't work. At some point I might add some kind of language support for dates, but right now you either need to supply English dates, or you need to use the work-around.

	I've heard from people that in this new month QtVLM may use "maj" instead of "may", causing the date conversion to fail. I've updated the converter to automatically translate "avr." to "apr"; "mai" and "maj" to "may" So this link should work for you: http://sol.kroppyer.nl/qtvlm2dc/ (Tech note: the date_regex and date_replace variables can still be used to override these translations to something else, when the new month comes for example) --- Last Edited by kroppyer at 2016-05-04 10:53:28 ---

	qtvlm 5.3-4 If you export a route to .cvs in qtvlm no longer the name of the month is exported but the number. That's nice but be sure that in the qtvlm configuration screen your choice of day/month or month/day is right. using brainaids dc-editor there is a big difference between 08/05/2016 22:26:00 cc 100 and 05/08/2016 22:26:00 cc 100 my excel macro's worked because 08 mei 2016 was recognized as date where mei 08 2016 was not. Conversion to 2016/05/08 was somewhat different for both. If I choose in Qtvlm day/month all works well. If you use http://sol.kroppyer.nl/qtvlm2dc/ you no longer have to worry about the maj, may, mai or whatever this month is called in your language.. (in my excel macro i plan to check whether todays month number is te same as qtvlm's month.. ) --- Last Edited by krimpvrij at 2016-05-09 14:10:52 ---

	I think I'm reading my converter works with the new qtvlm date format? Be sure to let me know when it fails (if possible, send me the file that makes it fail). I haven't tested with the new qtvlm date format, so double check the output dates.

	After changing to version 5.3-7, I now get the date format as yyyy/dd/mm? Qtvlm shows correct format on route details as dd/mm/yyyy any suggestions please

Newport Bermuda Race 2024

The 636-mile biennial Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet Race and the Sydney to Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. Founded in 1906, this 53rd running of the Bermuda Race can again also be participated in online.
Entries are invited for one of the four divisions:
Double-Handed Division:
Jeanneau Sun Fast 3600
St. David's Lighthouse Division:
Santa Cruz 52
Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division:
Judel Vrolijk 62
Finisterre Division:
Riptide 50
Details for each yacht are available in the ‘Particulars’ links below. As in real life, you can only sail one boat in one division, so choose your virtual yacht carefully, and because of the unusual (for SOL) 4-division nature of the event, please note results will not count towards any Sailonline rankings.
