Hello Cvetan

Do U have a point of view about the new VR will be shown for the next ≠VG2016 ?
- Winds on real time
- No more wind shift
Best regards

Sorry the article is not translated into English

Since we have to abide by the new "CGU" (General Conditions of Use) which prohibits us from making use of info downloaded from the VR servers, could zezo be slightly modified such that a user enters his lat/lon manually as well as stating whether he is using pro sails.

From there zezo can continue doing its magic without having touched VR servers. :)

Cheers,

John

Hello,
The cheksum is ok as it's possible to be connected on VRTool ;)
And the polar are also avalaible ;)
The only problem is how to get the winds...

Post by sonofabi | 2016-10-23 | 01:13:25

really? where do you find the polars, if I may ask?

Post by BlackD06-Danfers-AVL | 2016-10-23 | 10:51:34

They are the same of NY-Vend�e ;)

Post by sonofabi | 2016-10-23 | 16:18:42

ok, great...and where do I find these??? :-)

please excuse my ignorance, but until now I never used external weather routing...and I am terrible with computers...but now with the seemingly totally useless new interface I feel I have to use some external tool to at least get a rough idea on where to go...

but I am struggling because I have no idea what routing software to use and how to get the necessary input data, like polars etc...

do you think it make sense to use the standard noaa wind data set to get meaningful results, because VR seems to use their own wind data, as they claim it will be constantly updated and not every 6h...

forever grateful for your help!
cheers, oliver

For the moment, the best is (thanks m�t�oNiort) :
http://zezo.org/jv_imoca/chart.pl

And it's to you to choose your position etc etc...
Put this polars are the same ;)

Cool �a... mais o� dans VRTool ? Merci

Post by zezo | 2016-10-23 | 13:20:26

The interesting thing is how the forecast is interpolated over time, but we'll have to wait a bit more to see the implementation details.

Post by BlackD06-Danfers-AVL | 2016-10-24 | 00:34:54

Yes, wait the Sod�bo chalenge opening tomorrow ;)

Post by BlackD06-Danfers-AVL | 2016-10-24 | 00:31:25

Post by fab | 2016-10-23 | 14:22:43

the real question is about gusts.

Post by piguey33 | 2016-10-23 | 20:04:25

Thank you for your answer and your work Cvetan. Many people hope that you will find a solution.

Post by mak08 | 2016-10-29 | 15:58:07

The polars are easy to find: Point your Browser at virtualregatta.com, press F12 to launch the debugger, and log in to the game. Observe the Network tab in the debugger.
You will see these requests:

Hi Cvetan !

Could you in place to "enter boat name" put two boxes to set geo position ?

It would be a good idea to continue to have fun with your sexy router ;-)

HELLO.
To install a blank card with the updated winds and polar voucher is can be a band-aid solution

Post by firestorm | 2016-10-27 | 12:27:00

le nouveau getuser est un fichier binaire crypt�

Post by BlackD06-Danfers-AVL | 2016-10-27 | 12:50:13

The winds are GFS 1� by step of 3hours interpolated each 20 mns.

So we have world map, manual positioning, if we can have a menu to choose the polars it's OK :)

Post by Mandranova | 2016-10-28 | 10:39:03

Hello everybody...

I have the impression that VR broke us our best tools: zezo!

I am on MAC... Is it possible to place the boat manually as well as the destination (right click does not work on MAC)?

Post by Mandranova | 2016-10-28 | 10:51:23

Sorry I find... Control buttom and clic...

Hello Cvetan !
Is it possible that the weather to be updated every 3 hours instead of 6 like today?

That would be perfect !!

Long live to zezo :)

Des news ?

Post by firestorm | 2016-10-29 | 14:00:36

les vents ne sont pas interpol�s toute les 20 minutes mais bien toutes les dix minutes

Post by BARBEBLEUX | 2016-10-31 | 20:49:00

Merci pour les cartes 2015.
Thanks for the maps (2015)

Post by GrandSteph | 2016-11-02 | 21:15:52

MIchel,
Les 7 fichiers de polaires repr�sentent les diff�rentes voiles?
Aussi, ce sont les polaire du Vend�e ou du challenge Sodebo?
Et puisque n'abuse compl�tement, :), c'est en noeuds?

Merci!

Post by Fast_cubed | 2016-11-05 | 20:56:59

In the new Vendee Globe VR User Interface wind forecast selection tab, instead of being able to choose "0H" hour for winds, I have "04:02 +1d". Does anybody know what this means? Is it the same as "0H"?

Et � mes amis fran�ais:
Dans le nouvel onglet de s�lection de pr�vision de l'interface utilisateur vent VR Vend�e Globe, au lieu d'�tre en mesure de choisir le moment "0H" pour le vent, je re�ois "04:02 + 1d." Est-ce que quelqu'un sait ce que cela signifie? Est-ce la m�me chose que "0H"?

~Thanks
~Merci
