For those who want to install r_3584 ( setiathome_8.22) manually, its available now on my website. You have to replace every instance of the old app in your app_info with the name of of the new app with Notepad. Same for .CL file. You have to use the Find function with the Replace All option. DON'T try to type the name yourself, use a Copy/Paste of the new app name from the Properties page of the new app. Raistmer has a tendency to change his naming conventions from time to time between revision releases. He caught a lot of people off guard with a double underline between the revision number and the SoG part of the name once. Was very easy to miss the double length of the underline which caused everyone to dump their work because the app_name was called out incorrectly in app_info. Best plan to avoid dumping and "ghosting" work is to run your GPU work down to nil and then edit app_info. You can also change the version number of the app if you want to if you have run your work out but it isn't really necessary, Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours ![]() ![]() A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

Yes, I believe you are correct. Didn't mean to put the blame on Raistmer by mistake. Just wanted to point out the dangers of trying to input the app name manually. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours ![]() ![]() A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |
