Special characters are not supported in the current version. Fixed for the next version.
I use an old version of AGL. Only for the easy nmea output to port 5010 for any race I choose. For routing I use 'BlueWater Racing'.
But for the grib files I have to use brainaid's tools.
AGL and Brainaid use the same named grib-file but I get a load of errors when trying to load the AGL-grib into BWR. Something about being semi-oblique. Brainaid's grib works flawless.

Apart from this grib-annoyance, the latest AGL versions, that are introducing an "own JAVA version" do not work at all with me.
(I have installed the latest JAVA version because I need that for JAVA based apps.(for example brainaids 'NMEAproxy.jnlp') maybe that is a cause of AGL not working?).

I am trying to set up AGL on my WIN 10 Xi CAD home workstation to permit logging the fleet of CCA/SOL cruising simulation passages. Zorba pointed to AGL as a means of documenting optimal selection of departure windows and routes to achieve minimal fuel burn and most comfortable sailing weather. I do not see the AG14installDir.bat in the windows_bat\ subdirectory.
I also do not have race folders set up yet.

Bill, I sent you an email yesterday. Did you get it. Please check junk folders.

AGL 14 uses it's own runtime environment (the new requirement post version 8, which is no longer supported) and has nothing to do with the installed versions. If you have set it up right as per the instructions, it will work.

I have no idea what the issue with Bluewater is. The grib is written according to the specification and works in qtVlm, Expedition and other viewers with no issues. If you can identify what is wrong with it, I may be able to fix it.

re grib in BWR:
"For all records BWR shows following remark:
grib: Record 0: Thinned or quasi-regular grids are not supported."

re "own runtime java":

I have installed since using brainaid's nmeaproxy the most recent version oracle runtime java environment.

All AGL versions worked until the "own java environment" was introduced.

Installed latest agl. Got it working. Still same grib errors in BWR.

Thus uninstalled AGL and will rely on Brainaid's tools.

Kipper,

I did not get your email and undoubtedly tossed it with the flood of junk mail. Please resend and let me know at least the first part of your email address so I can watch for your message.

THANKS!
Bill

Windows does not show file extensions by default. In that case you should see only 'AG14installDir'
Clicking on it should work.

I've put up a new version which is available here called AGL_14_3_0_update.zip and is an update as per the install instructions in the manual. This version includes the ability to insert and move DCs. I have also finally fixed the http 403 error and getting token infinite loop, plus special characters are supported in passwords.

The user manual has also been update to match this version.

The full installs have also been updated to this version.

Enjoy.

Port Huron to Mackinac 2025


First run in 1925, the race from Huron to Mackinac is considered to be the world's longest consecutively run freshwater sailing race. Let's go - 260nm in X-362 Sport's awaits!!
Throw away unnecessary ballast from your boats. Fresh water has less buoyancy, which means greater draft and greater resistance to movement, which means lower speeds, etc.😊

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!

Camel or Balloon 2025 - Khartoum to N'Djamena


As there is a lull in the calendar, your PRO has decided to risk an experiment – a balloon race over land, using a workaround to eliminate the recognition of water/land transitions. If it fails, the server may crash, and we abandon PDQ, hopefully after leg 7 of the ABS race to Suez has been decided, and before the start of the 1st OCC of Q4. Camel or Balloon – c 1000 nm from a field on the north bank of the Blue Nile at Khartoum to a field on the north bank of the Chari River at N'Djamena!
