New info on G@H/F@H3

Post by emobley3 »

Originally posted by Vijay Pande:

Our current idea is that the user can choose which stats they want their WUs credited to. The following is not implemented, but it's our current plan. Note that G@H team #'s are all > 100000. If you put a G@H team number into your client, you would be sent to a server giving out G@H WUs and your credit will go on the G@H stats.

If you use a F@H team # (<100000), your credit will go to F@H stats.

We hope that should satisfy those worried about the issue of keeping G@H stats while still having a G@H in the F@H architecture.

I just found this info on the new F@H3 forum. It looks like we will be able to keep our G@H team together and still run the new core.

Thats great news. Is the new core out or still in beta? I'll probably switch over when our team reaches 500,000 units...but hopefully using your information and run G@H!!

The new core is still in beta now. I think Stanford will release the final version around the 24th of this month.

I am running the new core, ie. command line F@H 3 release and entered the Genome team number. I am currently on my 3rd genome, yet my G@H stats have not changed and taken into account the previously completed 2 genomes. Not sure if they take some time to move across, ie. Folding holds the stats for a few months and then passes them across as a batch (maybe quarterly, or so), or if the stats are still supposed to be updated in a timely manner.

I assume if the stats don't move in the next few months, I will move back to the old client. And I checked at Folding, no stats have been registered there for me either.

Looks to me like they are hitting. According to this as of 2 AM you had 2 genes.

FYI that is the last time is shows an update for me also. It does take a bit before results show in the various stat pages.

You are right Lukeman, they are now showing, but it appears as though I have 2 accounts with the same name now, the one that I run with the Genome client and the one I run with the Folding client and the Genome account number. Not really the result I was expecting / hoping for.

And DOH, it looks like it is case sensitive :)

Yep, it is case sensitive. One of those little things some of us learned. In .99 you could edit the config file and change things.

Not sure that will work here. If nothing else copy the F@H exe file to new directory and fire it up it should ask for info again and enter the name right.
:D

There is a config file as well in the Folding 3 directory, which seems pretty idiot proof to edit. Thanks for the tip. :)
