  • Re: Error in CMD Prompt Accessing AGL
    Board » Technical Support
    @siaki
    I think you see that warning in a DOS window.
    Nothing to worry about.

    Maybe your internet-connection was temporarily somewhat slower.

    Does patience the job and is your AGL after some delay working? All is good.

    link info reads:
    https://sol.brainaid.de/notice/notice_1704.html When you click on it, it returns message not being able to make connection.
    should be:

    resulting in:

  • Re: SOLVED_No (2) digits behind the comma
    Board » Technical Discussion
    I was lucky because I use qtvlm wit english language. dot as decimal separator is then standard.

    I never used kroppyer's converter but excel & macros to get dc's into brainaids or autogribloader. And there was the same problem with dots and comma's.

  • Re: No (2) digits behind the comma

    You write
    "(COGs have 3 digits before the comma and 2 digits behind)"

    Use dot . as decimal seperator instead of ,

  • Re: QtVLM and SOL
    Board » Technical Support
    @Arno1966:
    I assume you are talking about seeing AIS-targets in QTVLM.

    question: what do you use to get your boat position into QTVLM?

    When I use brainaid's nmea-proxy then after some seconds the whole fleet around me is shown. Using AGL nothing is shown or after a very long time. Maybe I am not long enough busy with qt to see that happen.

    I'm on windows 11
    I uninstalled openwebstart.
    I installed Icedtea-Web
    brainaid's .jnlp files opened/worked much quicker than with openwebstart.

    (I do not know what IHM is but since you 'have never seen' it how do you know it is 'the worst'}

    Maybe hitting the 'GO TO RACE' button instead of
    '▶ Flash' button solves all your problems.

    And if hitting this button does not work then come back here with more specifics.
    - which operating system do you use?
    - which browser do you use? (opera, firefox, internet explorer, edge to name only a view.

    An adobe flashplayer that works in windows will be difficult/near-impossible to find. (Adobe no longer supports it since December 31, 2020)

Cross the Convergence 2026 - St Helena to Cape Verde


The fourth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us out of the Pacific into the Atlantic for a 2200nm race in Judel Vrolijk 62’s, from the desolation of St Helena, there where Napolean Bonaparte saw out the end of his life, to the even greater desolation of Fogo in the Cape Verde’s. You’ll have to cross the equator, with the coasts of Africa and South America your only navigational restrictions.
