Volvo Ocean Race - Beta

[Neptune]

I was asked to participate in the BETA race which just started - http://beta.volvooceanracegame.com/play -
Does anyone know what the setting for VRTool are for this race ?
ie Server info ? The location of the "Plug -in" is the same as before but the folder is empty.

Im Beta testing the Volvo as well. It would be great to be able to use VRTool on that site as well.
We would need polar files as well as import data. Any help out there?
Thanks

Also in the VORG 2011/2012 would LOVE to be able to use this tool again for the race. It was amazing last time.

I tried to log-in in that one, but it asks for a "beta key",
which I don't have

[koolin]

email info@volvooceanracegame.org to get a beta key, not sure what sys info they are using myself

Hi Omar,
if you can't get a game key, let me know. You can use my entry to set up what you need.

I asked and got my "Beta Key".

Data files are in a different format from MPs.
Vrtool data import module will not work in this case.

So what are the options then? I mean we have a long way to go till the real thing starts in Oct/November. That should be the realistic goal of getting things working in VRTool. Beta use is a nice to have.

From the comments I have read on the beta site they are stepping up their own tool features a bit but no where near what VRTool brings. Us hardcore virtual sailors need some VRTool for VORG 2011/2012!

Hi Omar,
do you expect to look into a modified module to run on the next version of VOR game?
