| Quote: | SETI@home: SETI@home Version 8 has been released.
This version finally gives us the ability to process data from multiple sources, including the Green Bank Telescope. That means we'll be ready for data from Breakthrough Listen when it's available.
We're releasing the versions for CPUs first. We'll release versions for graphics processing units (GPUs) and Android devices as they come available. We're releasing slowly so as not to overtax our download server. This update will happen automatically, unless you use a special version you got from another web site.
We've also made small changed to our science code to improve the Gaussian fitting routines. This means version 8 results are not compatible with version 7. So if you use a version of SETI@home you got from another site, or if you compile your own version, you'll need to get or build a version 8 application. I'm sure link will be made available in the Number Crunching forum.
A shout out to the volunteer developers (especially Urs, Jason and Raistmer) and all the beta testers for helping out.
Happy New Year!

I have been trying to run a few of those V8 but can't seem to get any.
I have playing around with tweeking the Lunatics optimizer and carefully added a section to the app_info.xml.
Also grabbed libfftw3f-3-3-4_x86.dll so it would run on my 64 and another file but so far all I get is an error:

Guess I'll just have to wait until it gets optimized - let someone else do the brainwork.

Someone posted working app_info.xml templates and download links to the non-optimized berkeley versions over in the number crunching forum at berkeley. |
