Great! Thanks for your support Cvetan.
Maybe a 'Donate' button on this page would also be helpful :)

The winds seem to be different in the game compared to the charts here, any thoughts anyone,

Hello Cvetan,
As stated in the post "Virtual Regatta introduces new wind systems.", from Monday 29 August at 8:00 GMT +2, the winds will not be used for the 09:00 GMT and 18:00 GMT but 06:00 GMT and 18:00 GMT
You will have the ability to perform the update for Monday 08:00 GMT?
thank you Cvetan

Hi

I'm on a little windsurfing vacation on a Turkish island, but have net access here and will take a look at it. It should be a one line change - commenting out the condition around '$gfs_offset_broken-=3;' ;-)

Thanks Cvetan, and good surf ;-)

Post by Paula | 2011-08-29 | 13:23:05

Many thanks Cvetan - what would we do without you!!

Enjoy the rest of your holiday :-)

No going back

Hi Cvetan,
With the time change (currently GMT +1), there is a time lag of one hour between the actual time and zezo :-(
Could you look at it if you have time, please?
Thank you very much Cvetan ;-)

Post by ultimateboat | 2011-10-31 | 10:20:54

Thank you very much Cvetan, you're the best ;-)

Hi Cvetan,
Sometimes the routing calculated by zezo not displayed, the map is "empty".
Could you look at it if you have time please ?
Thank you Cvetan ;-)

Post by zezo | 2011-11-06 | 00:28:28

I fixed this particular problem, but the site will probably become quite unresponsive at peak hours during the next week with 5 races running.

Post by ultimateboat | 2011-11-06 | 08:35:23

OK, Thanks :)

Post by ultimateboat | 2011-11-05 | 22:36:38

Hi Cvetan,
If possible, could you to add as destination "Tauranga" (NZ) please ?
Thank you very much Cvetan ;)

Post by zezo | 2011-11-06 | 13:55:10

Ready. Added few points to the Jacques Vabre races too while at it.

Post by ultimateboat | 2011-11-06 | 19:15:58

Thanks Cvetan :-)
On the map of the clipper, it seems that there is a difference between the winds displayed and those taken into account in calculating zezo ... Could you look at this please ?

Post by BMS | 2011-11-06 | 19:25:23

Am I mistaken, or have the expected winds changed? Compared to other sources the fcst winds and hence track advisory are incorrect, it seems...

Best regards,
BMS

Post by BMS | 2011-11-06 | 19:38:45

Hmmmm... Fcst winds are good... But the winds taken in account for the calculations are different? Expected winds (checked e.g. at Pacotool) are about 14kt approx. Calculations are done with winds approx. 5-6kt... Careful every1!

Post by zezo | 2011-11-06 | 19:56:59

Yeah. Made wrong change - divide by 1.852 instead of multiply. Should be ok now.

Post by BMS | 2011-11-06 | 20:05:52

Thx m8! Had me going there: was already into calculations, triangles and polars... ;-)

Thx Cvetan

Post by ultimateboat | 2011-11-06 | 21:19:14

It's ok, thanks Cvetan ;)

Post by BMS | 2011-11-14 | 23:50:24

Thx Cvetan... ;-)

Hello,No routes are being shown on the Clipper chart since 1900 GMT. Only a short yellow line and the destination flag. Clicling on the VOR tag shows a suggested course for the two chosen points but of course the speeds are not correct for a Clipper yacht. 20 knots? Noway!
Otherwise the site has been a great help to us all. Thanks
