I appear to have an issue with the graphics when I upload the latest version. The land appears to be a moving starburst.

Please disregard this issue. I completely restarted my computer and this corrected the display issues! :)

Hi Kipper,
Not sure why but I am having the graphics issues again on AGL 23. I restarted my computer and it did not fix the issue this time.
Any thoughts on what I might need to do?
Thanks

All I can think is that you may need to update your graphics card Open GL drivers. Also, you are fully up to date with all windows updates?

I reopened AGL14 and there are no issues with the display.

2024-12-09 22:54:15 - AGL23 landshape polygon fill rendering issue
There is a low level issue rendering the landshape polygon fill with the latest libraries used in AGL23. This only occurs when the graphics is processed by the integrated graphics processor (in software by the CPU) rather than by a dedicated graphics processing unit (GPU) on a graphics card. If this is happening to you, make sure your graphics processing is set to use the GPU if you have one, and not set to "Integrated graphics".

If you don't have a dedicated graphics card in your computer, I have a work around in a patch that I will be releasing that will allow you to turn off polygon fill. This will still show the coastlines, but the land won't be filled.

Hey Kipper - just back from several months off, and noticed the new AGL version. Are there compelling new features that would make me want to switch? I use a laptop that probably does not have the advanced graphics I see being discussed.

Thx.

Install AGL23 as per the instructions and see what happens. Both 14 and 23 can coexist on your computer and run in the same race folder, just not at the same time.

You can keep using 14 whilst getting 23 working.

Kipper - just so you know: I installed and ran AGL23_1_5. Without making any adjustments, everything seems fine except that the land masses are simply outlines (no fill). That is what I expected, I think?

Thanks again for sharing your work (and genius!).

Beketov by Balloon 2026 - In Siberia


Way-back-when France and England, and Spain as well, were squabbling about who should control what of North America, only to lose the most of it to their own insurging colonists, their eastern European neighbour empire, Russia, was quietly assimilating vast, thinly nomadically populated territory of its own – Siberia! Amongst the many explorers and adventurers that served Russia so well in these conquests was the Cossack hetman Pyotr Beketov. Let’s pretend we’re he and eschewing horseback, let’s travel by balloon from Yekaterinberg to Krasnoyarsk – just a short 2000km (1100nm) section of the Trans-Siberian Express’ 9289km!

West Papua to Oregon 2026

Our next race in our Ocean Championships is the first of a series of great natural migrations we will track in 2026. The leatherback turtle is the most widely distributed marine reptile on planet Earth, and chooses to breed in warm tropical waters, but prefers to forage in more temperate habitats, travelling thousands and thousands of miles effortlessly annually to maintain this way of life. Our race will follow one of the typical trips of this turtle, from breeding grounds in the seas off West Papua to the coast of Oregon. It’s only 5900nm, so to keep up, but in comfort, we’ll follow in our Gunboat 90.

Race to Up Helly Aa 2026

A-OI!!! The fiery spirit of Shetland’s legendary Up Helly Aa returns, and Sailonline’s annual race to Lerwick is once again upon us. Covering 383 nautical miles from Aberdeen, SOLers will tackle winter waters steeped in Viking tradition. This year, we race the classic Frers 33, a proven cruiser-racer born from the golden era of offshore racing and still a sturdy performer both on the virtual and real water. Can you master the course and reach Lerwick in time for the flames?

SAILING NOTE: Gruney may be approached from any direction but must be passed for rounding purposes as indicated on the chart.

Red Eye - Hobart Convict Run 2026

Back in 2010, one of our SOLers of the first hour, AUS_Scott76, came up with this ‘Convict Run’ out from Hobart, past Cape Raoul and the penal colony of Port Arthur, round Tasman Island, up and back down the east coast of Tasmania, to finish with a tight technical run – so Scott called it – up the picturesque D'entrecasteaux Channel, home to Hobart once again. It’s 250nm, ideal for a bit of ‘Red Eye’ in comfortable Finngulf 43’s, and if the original idea was to pick up some convicts on the way for a bit of R&R and sea air, you may always drop’m back before returning to Hobart!

New Ice Age 2026 - Longyearbyen to Browerville


Although we have by no means exhausted the possibilities of ice boating on lakes at high latitudes or high altitudes, it was noticeable that as our 2025 Series progressed, there were calls from time to time for longer-distance challenges, and so in response to these calls we will pretend that global warming has reversed and as a result the coastal waters of Antarctica and Russia and Canada have fully (and smoothly!) frozen over offering us the possibility of a 4-race New Ice Age series in our trusted no-PL DN machines. Our first leg takes us 2600nm from Svalbard’s Longyearbyen east to North Alaska’s Browerville. You’ll be a few days on the ice, so dress warmly and take some provisions; go!
