Not sure. I think it can't find C:\SOL\Java14\agl14_1_0_1.jar. Try upgrading to the new version and see what happens.

I have no Current Boat data tab. Unable to add AIS Boat List. No display of DCs with PL loss.
Unable to set DCs, therefore unable to refresh DCs in game.

Hi guys, I'm at a bit of a loss with setting up this version on a Mac. In particular this passage in the manual about setting the 'execution bit set'. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

6.For Mac and linux users only:a.Navigate down to /SOL/Java14/macOS_linux_shfolder. The files will have a .shextensionb.These files will need to have the execution bit set using the shell command chmod +xbefore they can be run.c.It is preferable to add the export AG14InstallDir=/SOL/Java14/export AG14Version=agl14_2_1export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Dfile.encoding=UTF8into you /etc/profile. That way they will be permanently set.d.Once the profile has been updated and saved, open a new shell and type echo $AG14InstallDirYou should see /SOL/Java14/returned.

For some reason it has tried to access a button which has not been defined yet. I can't reproduce the error. Have you waited until the initialisation is complete and the DCs have been loaded before trying anything? You will need to restart and try again.

--------------------------
It is driven off shell scripts. Have a read through this this which will explain everything you need to know about creating and running shell scripts. Pay particular attention to environment variables, in particular, how to set them permanently as the system relies on them at run time as well.

Thanks Kipper I will have a read.
Still no joy Andrew.
I downloaded 14.2.1 Version (without maps).
Carefully carried out install instructions.
It loads but with same Pointer exceptions.
As well as greyed out "Current Boat Date" tab, the Mayday respondents and AIS contacts are also greyed out.
It may be due to my PC not being able to use Open GL.
Is it possible to provide a link to the previous version files? That worked with Use "Open GL Engine" not selected.
Regards
Dave

The previous version should still be there unless you deleted it (AG14_1_0_1.jar). Just edit AG14Version.bat, change AG14_2_1 to the old version (AG14_1_0_1), and run AGVersion.bat. If you don't have AG14_1_0_1.jar, I've put a copy on OneDrive. Download it and place it in your Java14 folder.

That being said, you should seriously look at why you computer does not support OpenGL. It's been around for years and is supported in software even if you don't have graphics card support. Alternatively buy a cheap graphics card with OpenGL support and install it.
Thank you Andrew.
14_1_0_1.jar now downloaded and working well. I will look into getting a new graphics card. I will just have to be careful with PL.

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Sao Tomé to Tristan

The fifth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back south down the Atlantic from Sao Tomé on the Equator to Tristan da Cunha on the edge of the Roaring Forties. It’s 2500nm; in your path the Benguela winds and current along the south west African coast, and behind that the St Helena High stretching halfway to South America. So, mind where you go in your Volvo OD65 version 3 (based on sampled real-life race data by kroppyer)!

New Ice Age 2026 - Neumayer Station to Scott Base


For a second-half of long-distance ice-boating, we take our DNs to Antarctica for a circumnavigation of that continent in two legs clockwise, in harmony with the prevailing winds (such as there are), beginning with a race from Germany’s Neumayer Station to New Zealand’s Scott Base. It’s about 3500nm, which, if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Tall Ships 2026 - Aarhus to Harlingen


Welcome to the first of four virtual Tall Ships Races in European waters which are concurrently being organized in-real-life by Sail Training International . The course for this first race is from Aarhus in Denmark, through the Skaggerak and down the North Sea to Friesland’s Harlingen – a proper tall ship training adventure of circa 450nm, which online this year you will race in Sailonline’s classic Clipper 240.
NOTE: Starts and Finishes in tall ships racing are always offshore to avoid conflict with shipping and shipping lanes; online and real-life may not match exactly.

Viareggio Bastia Viareggio 2026

Our sixth race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil - was planned to be our third buddy-up with another incredible Italian event, the Viareggio Bastia Viareggio (or BVR for short). Unfortunately, in-real-life the BVR has been cancelled this year. But online we shall race it never the less. It’s a quickie – a 160nm roundtrip there-and-back in classic Class 40. Have fun, and if you’re planning a BBQ, piccola isola Capraia halfway across is simply lovely!

Shetland Race 2026 - Leg 2


After the thrill of the first leg, we don't linger long in Lerwick, Shetland. Following brief but joyous celebrations, it's time to set sail back across the North Sea to Bergen, Norway, for the gripping second leg of the Shetland Race 2026!

Covering another unpredictable 190 nautical miles, tactical depth and fierce competition await. This year, we take the helm of the Linjett 33. Designed by Mats Gustavsson in 1994 for Sweden's historic Rosättra Båtvarv, this sturdy, quality cruiser-racer has been a Sailonline favourite in northern waters since 2010. Whether you are chasing victory or savoring the voyage, hoist your sails and let the journey home begin!

Newport Bermuda Race 2026


The 636-mile Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet and the Sydney Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. First raced in 1906, now in its 54th biennial, the Race can again also be participated in online. In real life, the race is open to entry in four different division – Double-Handed, St. David's Lighthouse, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, and Finisterre Division – which in the past we have also offered online. This year, however, our online race will be all-in one-design in silky swift Club Swan 50 yachts, so that your results can count towards SOL’s SUPerBUDdy title, whilst hopefully still giving you a chance of overall line honours against the fastest yachts of the real-life Gibbs Hill Division, especially if you can find some forecast winds that don’t quite work out that way on the real water!
