Board » Technical Support » Sailrace Crashing

Hi I hope someone can help me,

Since the start of the Volvo race, sailrace keep on crashing. There is no pattern to it, it will sometimes crash when scrolling around the map, other times the game will just hang when the game is doing nothing. The hang starts with the cursor turning into a cross and all buttons failing to respond, next all the boxes empty and turn white and then the program says that it is not responding and must close. I have had the occasional crash in other races but this is happening all the time.

I have the same problem on two machines (both using Windows XP SP3)I am using Beta 7.
Is this happening other people?

Many thanks

Grumfoss
May the Foss be with you...
Got same problems with XP and Vista64.
I have the same problem. Almost every time I move around the map the program stop responding.
Well its working for me fine until i move map. Im just click to center my boat from toolbar and then zooming in and out. Dont scroll your map on your mouse.
Same Problem since this race. Reinstall the client still the same problem.
Looking forward to the flash client.
Same here, scroll around the map and the software crashes.

Both on XP and Vista, with high spec machines.

Roma per Tutti 2026


Sailonline are honoured and delighted to have been asked to partner an online first Roma per Tutti yacht race with organizing yacht club, Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . In real life, this will be the 33rd edition of this 540nm offshore race from Rome’s Riva di Traiano to the Aeolian Islands and back. Online, the race will not only be our first partnership with CN Riva di Traiano, but also the second race of our Magical Mediterranean series. A number of Mini 6.50s have been entered for the 33rd edition of the Roma per Tutti; so our own vintage Mini is also our virtual yacht of choice for this one.

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Guam to Ouvéa


The third race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us southeastward now down the Pacific, from Guam’s Apra Harbour at 13.5 degrees North, back across the Equator to the glorious New Caledonian resort island of Ouvéa, on the edge of the Tropic of Capricorn at 20.5 degrees South. It’s 2400nm, and there’s more than a few other islands in the way, so mind where you go in your Ocean 50s. Race #1981
