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!).

Azores Challenge 2025


Another almost forgotten race at SOL. For only the second time we will sail the Jester Azores Challenge route from 2016.
What is the Jester Challenge?
Every two years a group of singlehanded sailors heads for Plymouth to sail the Atlantic. The Jester Challenge is not a race in any way, shape or form, simply an opportunity for skippers to test their boats and their seagoing mettle in a supportive and non-competitive environment. Skippers can make stopovers in other ports or harbours if they so desire, and there is no stigma attached to retiring from the event. Each sailor takes full responsibility for him or herself, their boat and the equipment they carry. There are no entry fees and virtually no rules, although there are guidelines.
Our rules are a bit different and we have a 60ft trimaran at our disposal and we have 1200nm to cover. Let's see what our yachts and their skippers can do. We wonder what you will take on board?

Melbourne Osaka Cup Double-Handed Yacht Race 2025

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 this year is such a year. So, this year’s online version is in sync with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organised by the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. We’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat which should be a good match for many of the boats entered in the real race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across our course, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Dondra to Toamasina


Above you see a stratospheric balloon, that if only we had gribs at that altitude would get blasted along quite rapidly and predictably. Alas we just have our SOL balloon that sails rather lower to the sea and that we have crossed the Atlantic in, west to east, last year for the first time in the southern hemisphere. So much fun was had by all, that this year we will attempt the Indian Ocean, but in four legs. Another great piece of fiction, the voyages of Sinbad By Balloon not magic carpet, although you may need a bit of magic to make any progress at times. Pack your wicker basket full for your first leg of at least 2300nm from Sri Lanka to Madagascar; it’s not a picnic hamper, you could be in the air for longer than you hoped!
