	Just downloaded the new qT version and installed it. Only worked immediately after the installation. Now, it keeps crashing every time I try to start the program (Windows 7 Ultimate, X64, yes, with all the updates). Rolled back to the 5.3.5 patch 1 version. Sail Fair.

	You are the only one reporting that.. Did you install it in a clean folder and if yes what setting did you changed after the installation?

	No it wasn't a clean folder, alias, as all the previously installed qT versions went all for the same folder (“C:\Program Files\qtVlm”) without any problem. I didn’t change any of the previous version (3.5.1 patch 1) settings. I’ve just inserted a new setting for the Performance recovery time (it’s a new option in the 3.5.6). Anyhow, I’ve made a clean install to a new folder (“C:\Program Files\qtVlm1”), losing all my previous qT configs, routes made, barriers and waypoints, where you, as you well know, spend a lot of time implementing. It’s working now. Thank you Philipe. Sail Fair.

	You can always recover your pois, routes barriers and such by copying poiReal.dat and boatAccReal.dat from one folder to another. Did you set again the new parameter for tack/gybes penalty and is it ok?

	Maybe we should tell QtVlm users where to download it!!! Here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qtvlm/

	You found a problem indeed. I am generating a patch
Posted by JB Posts 305 Registered at 2013-03-07 08:54:34	2016-06-20 15:06:56 - Re: qTVLM new 5.3.6 version
	Philipe, The problem is precisely in the “poiReal.dat” file as the new version crashes when I load the one used in the 3.5.1 patch 1 version. So, exporting from the old version to the new one, via the “qtVlmExport.zip” file, doesn’t work and you lose a lot of the previously made work, as mentioned before. This problem, as also already suggested, will be solved the day we can generate (exportable/importable/compatible between successive versions) separate files for routes, barriers and waypoints. The new qT config for the Performance recovery I still have to test it but, it will be difficult to match or get closer to the “SOL formula”, which in my opinion is a mess. Again, thank you Philipe. Sail Fair.

	This is due to a bug linked to this new parameter and a last minute modification I did, my bad. A patch will be posted in less than one hour and you will be able to recover your routes, poi, barriers etc.

	All qT users will appreciate, Philipe. Sail Fair.

	Patch 1 ready. Can you confirm all is ok this time?

Jakob's Birthday BBQ Race 2024

Sailonline had two founders and Jakob, the more senior of the two, has his birthday in April which we always like to celebrate with a race through the Stockholm Archipelago from Revengegrundet Lighthouse to his mooring at Baggensfjärden. Traditionally also, like other celebrations this time of year, this feast has been “moveable”, so on this occasion we will be racing on a Wednesday in one of our latest high-performance 40-footers, the Carkeek 40. Please join us then for this always tricky 30nm race. Grattis på födelsedagen Jakob!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

Welcome once again to what these days is Sailonline’s almost annual virtual Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race. In real life, this double-handed 5500 nm race between these two sister cities, one deep in the southern hemisphere, the other high in the northern hemisphere, is run every four to five years, and is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

The Beagle in the Straits of Magellan 2024

Both before and after visiting the Falkland Islands, the Beagle extensively explored the south eastern coast of South America, hither and thither, from north of the Rio Plate to the tip of Tierra del Fuego, but it was not till the end of June 1834 that the ship made it into the Pacific Ocean, transiting via the Straits of Magellan. Online in 2024, the choice is yours - passage the strait or round the cape; 400nm or more in your Class B Tall Ship.
