These WUs will go directly to the classic clients running with -advmethods. Non-classic clients (eg SMP, GPU, PS3) will not be affected, as all of these calculations will be run via the AMBER core and only the classic client supports the AMBER core.

To reward users for participating in this exciting project, we will be giving a x1.5 bonus in the points awarded. What's the catch? These projects will be less rigorously beta tested, so there will be an increased risk of Early_Unit_End errors. We believe the risk of this is minor (there will likely be a higher rate of early unit ends, especially very early in the WU, but we do not expect client machines to become significantly less stable). However, if you do not wish to participate in this project, just remove the -advmethods setting from your client.

Is this the standard install for F@H or do you have to modify your setup to take advantage of it? If you do have to modify it, how? I run 2 pcs with Win2k

I use the console versions, so I need to fire up a GUI for comparison.

In the console version using “-adv” is NOT the default. You need to enter the “Changed Advanced Setting” during installation to get there.

Which version are you running?

If the GUI, I would change the icon that points to F@H and add BritYank’s code:

C:\FAH1\winFAH.exe -local -verbosity 9 -advmethods

(changing C:\F@H1 to the location of your folder).

By using his code and restarting the system you will be able to start using the -advmethods setting.

I turn it on for all but the systems with the lowest memory in them.
