You can create your account for free. And I will keep the basic functionality free, too. But Map data isn't free. Ayvri is offline because they couldn't afford to pay for the data usage without any paying users. I don't intend to make big money off this platform, but I need to pay the bills and, if possible, get paid for at least some of the the time I invest into this project. So if you like Ogoy, please consider getting a subscription. It makes a big difference for me. See Pricing for more details.
Is it really that big of a deal? It just makes a lot of things so much easier for me. Some boring tech stuff about security or abuse protection. Also, it makes it a lot easier to conform with EU privacy regulations. And it's necessary to make my pricing system work. However, with the Ultimate subscription or by spending some credits, you can make your scene available without login.
When creating a scene, just make sure the top left icon is a globe icon instead of the account icon . This will cost you 1 credit per 3 tracks within a scene. And with the Ultimate subscription, it's free for up to 3 tracks per scene. If you have bigger scenes you want to be accessable without login on a regular basis, please contact me for a custom plan, I might be able to give you a discount.
It's just me. One single developer. And I am just doing this as one of my many projects. I've spent far over a thousand hours to get the project this far and do not expect to get paid for that at all. However, I have a lot of ideas and if I can find the time and Ogoy is being used by more and more people, there may be much to come. Make sure you are subscribed to the newsletter so you get informed about new features and updates.
Let me know! I already implemented a lot of features because of user feedback. So just use the feedback form and send it to me. Of course, my resources are limited and often, feature ideas stay on my list for years - so I cannot promise anything. But I will read and reply to every message and consider every suggestion.
A track is the representation of one uploaded *.igc file. It can be uploaded and displayed as a part of a scene.
A scene consists of one or more tracks and is the thing you can watch. You can create a scene by uploading tracks or by adding tracks from existing scenes. Or by a combination of both.
At the moment, you cannot do that by yourself. If it's really important to you, you can kindly ask me over the contact form to do it manually for you.
Please send me a message over the contact form, then I will delete your account manually. Make sure your are logged in when sending the message, so I know it's really you. Note that you will not be able to create a new account with the same email address after deletion.
No, this unfortunately, this is not possible. Ogoy is built in the browser. To enable automated video export, I would need more or less a game engine on the server and a completely separate project. This would be absolute overkill for this platform. Also, I would need different licensing for the map data, which I believe is financially not viable. That_being said, there is a very good alternative: Screen Recording. Use a software like OBS Studio to simply record your screen while playing the scene. This also solves the issue of changing perspective and zoom level during playback, which would make an automated export look rather bad. Also, with the pro subscription, you get a special screen recording mode, which shows you an optimized view for screen recording, especially for the usage in videos.
