Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 Next

Running XP SP2 with AMD Athalon 64 Processor 3200+ 1.00 GHz 950M Ram.

When the client starts up the boats are there breifly, then they chance to colored dots only. There are no wind arrows, iso or pressure lines or traces. The download was 7.12MB V0.00
Beta6 Changing items in the "SHOW" dropdown box makes no difference.

What am I doing wrong? Something stupid?

Thanks
I've heard this before. If you go to Show->Overlays, and set it to none, can you see something then?

Are you running 64-bit windows or 32 bit?
Selecting no overlays changes nothing.

I am not sure if running 32 or 64 bit, it is on my home PC and I am not there now. How do I check that?

I am having the same problem on a Toshiba laptop at home also, but not on the laptop I am using now (ACER)
Can you think of some kind of software you're running on the two troubled PCs, that you are to using on the computer that is working?
No,

Two different machines, one with virus protection one without. Different Processors and different programs. The only thing in common would be the Internet connection DSL One is hardwired, other on netwok router.
Does the clock in the top left corner keep ticking?
I believe so, But I will check later and post a new reply
Clock is ticking
The clock was still ticking, I checked and I am running 32 bit, changed to 16 bit but it made no difference.

I deleted the program,restored my computer to another date and ri-installed the program, still the same problem.
These are the errors I recieve when I shutdown the client, Does this shed any light on my problem?

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
