    Hello,

    Following my previous post, I eventually figured out how to connect qtVlm to a NMEA source. Brainaid's server definitely doesn't work.It sends a feed and qtVlm receives it, but it seems almost empty and qtVlm doesn't display any data.

    I had to install CDchecker to sort out the question. Finding and installing on Linux the right version of CDchecker turned out to be another endeavor but I eventually managed it :-)

    Ready now to give a try to SailOnLine :-)

    Hello,

    I'm new to SOL and I am trying to connect the game to qtVlm ... with some difficulties :-)

    I am using the brainaid proxy server to export NMEA data to qtVlm. The server is properly running and qtVlm receives now a NMEA feed (NMEA raw data window shows it).

    The brainaid server receives data from a boat that is sailing in the "Shetland race 2021".

    The problem is that nothing happens on the screen. The race WP are not shown, my boat is not positioned and all instrument are inactive.

    Once qtVlm receives properly the NMEA feed, is there any other setting that is to be activated so that the feed can be processed concretly? Or maybe the feed itself doesn't contain the proper data?

    Has anyone of you already had this kind of problem in the past?
  • Installing AGL in Linux
    Board » Technical Support
    Hello,

    I would like to install AGL in Linux.

    I tried to launch the AutoGribLoader 3 2 3.jar through the java -jar command, but got a bunch of errors. I suppose that there are some parameters to adjust first (paths?), but I don't know which and where. Could someone help?

    Thank you in advance.

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Baia de l'Oiseau to Carnarvon


How ever shall I return to report with clarity to my Great Sultan – asked Sinbad. It needs be told this island and all its fables shall be expunged from the annals of every thousand and one night. The wind howls – and sun be none (it’s Winter, Sin’bro, ed.) – and all days from the west, but let’s launch anyway and see if we can work our SOL Balloon north as the days pass aiming for Asthralaya, where The Mahabharata tells the ancients once tested mighty weapons, about a quarter and a million qasbah away (2500nm, ed.), perhaps one month.
