    This has been fixed by the Ops team. Just use the New button in AGL when restarting it.

    Please note that there is a problem in the race description that is causing AGL Wx downloads to fail after the first one. I have fixed the race info file which can be used for this race. Do the following.
    1. Download the attached file into the SOLGribXml folder of that race and unzip it there, overwriting the copy that is there.
    2. Restart AGL.

    Alternatively, if there is a race message to the effect that the description has been fixed, restart AGL and use the New button.

    Kipper, I have downloaded the 14.6.0 AGL Manual. What I am worried about is corrupting the existing files that allow me to continue using Version 14.2.9 if I follow the First Time instructions in order to Update to the latest version. I am assuming that there is some modification required in the First Time instructions when you are already using AGL. TX again.
    .
    .

    Skipping so many updates does mean you really need to do a new install. But you can overwrite the old install, if you don't want to make a new location.

    This is what I suggest you do.
    1.Create a new folder for the new version.
    2. Download the AGL14_5_9_full.zip and unzip it into your new location.
    2. Download AGL14_6_1_update.zip and unzip that into the new location.
    3. Edit the environment variables (or batch files and run them) to point to the new location and version.
    4. You should be able to run AG_pause.bat to make sure it is working and you've set the locations correctly.

    If you are not happy, you can simply point back to the old version and old location.

    ...and I don't know what is the red route in AGL? I may have missed it in the manual???!!
    .
    That's the additional course waypoint created when you load the DCs from qt through the DC Data Table. Have a read through that section.

    I suspect your first DC was earlier than now when you checked it, and has been removed. Or there is a bug with DC's before the race has started, and the boat is not moving.

    There is a problem with AGL 14.6.0 in that it will hang on first creation of the map if no level 3 polygons exist in the race area of interest. A fix has been released, see https://www.sailonline.org/board/thread/16719/agl14-releases/?page=11#post-18141

The Beagle in the Bay of Islands 2024


And west the Beagle went again to reach the Bay of Islands on the east coast of New Zealand’s North Island on the 19th of December. Darwin was not nearly as impressed by the inhabitants here, commenting that the Maori natives were “savages with the character of a much lower order than the Tahitians” and many of the English settlers were of “the most worthless character” and “included runaway convicts”, not anticipating that less than 200 years later a blend of these characteristics would combine to create a nation of serial Rugby World Cup Winners – evolution, eh, Charlie! The Beagle sailed on swiftly, but we will stay a little longer and explore c 200nm of the North Island’s glorious eastern coast, up and down, as ever in our replica Tall Ship Class B.
