	Post annotated by RainbowChaser : This thread was moved from the category General Discussion. To improve the development process for the sailonline client application, it would be good to know a few things about the systems people use to run SOL on. There are just a few categories of specifications we are inteerested in, so please fill it out and we can hopefully develop the client to better run on the higher end systems, while still being ok on the lower end ones. ************************************** ************************************ To make life easier for all, I found a small free benchmark program that is available for both PC and Mac. Called NovaBench it will reduce things to a few key numbers, and you can simply cut and paste the system specs from the report page. It is approx 11Mb download and tests take about 1-2 minutes. Please Post what you see on result page (you can just select all text, including overall result, and copy & paste - HDD info not necessary). [This also allows better comparison between Win & Mac machines] ************************************ ************************************** Please also indicate, whether your machine is a desktop or laptop, screen resolution and size, and a rough age in years (or < 1) Also your Internet download speed: Use the http://speedtest.net service for 'real-world' results, as often you are not achieving what your ISP claims as their connection speed. Example NovaBench output: NovaBench Score: 287 21/11/2011 10:51:14 AM Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ @ 2094 MHz Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS 3072 MB System RAM (Score: 87) - RAM Speed: 1945 MB/s CPU Tests (Score: 182) - Floating Point Operations/Second: 47251978 - Integer Operations/Second: 119100712 - MD5 Hashes Generated/Second: 513754 Graphics Tests (Score: 13) - 3D Frames Per Second: 48 Hardware Tests (Score: 5) - Primary Partition Capacity: 49 GB - Drive Write Speed: 15 MB/s If using this please also highlight the overall score (or include in post) Thanks --- Last Edited by Aaron Gage at 2011-11-21 04:03:02 --- I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

Neumayer Station to Biscoe Wharf 2024

It’s Autumn now in Antarctica, the sun is permanently below the horizon, but during the day, from c 0900 to c 1700 local time, there is some twilight – nautical twilight, not to be confused with civil twilight which is brighter. The penguins are starting to huddle together to keep warm and the sea ice is growing. Time to get back to Biscoe Wharf then, before the water becomes impassible. Including a detour past Argentina’s main two Antarctic stations, it’s only 1900nm, so, although we’ll be in a hurry, we will take the bigger, better ice-classed Paratii 2 once more, just to be sure!

Melbourne to Osaka Prelude 2024

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 is planned to be held again in 2025, so this race is a Prelude in partnership with the Melbourne Osaka Cup 2025 organising committee collaborating with the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria (ORCV), and the Sandringham (SYC) and Osaka Hokko (OHYC) yacht clubs. On this occasion, we’ll be racing the well-known First 40, a popular size of boat for a long-distance double-handed race. With the doldrums unavoidably lying across the track, you can expect to be at virtual sea for at least a month!
