BMG@home

[Bryan]

A new project ... need SUSA setup pretty please.

BMG@HOME (http://bmgathome.science/bmgathome/index.php)


Read the REQUIREMENTS ... you need a certain vintage of C++ redistributable or all WU will immediately croak.

WINDOWS ONLY

The one on their homepage :D That could be interesting ... I tried creating an account by just hitting "acccount" but it doesn't have the option to create. I used BTasks to attach and create my account. I know that TSBT and SG have somehow created teams.

The create "team" page is HERE (http://bmgathome.science/bmgathome/team.php)

[Bok]

try this one.

http://bmgathome.science/bmgathome/team_create_form.php

for Free-DC I usually go to that page that Brian listed prior, then put some garbage in the team name and search and it gives a page with the create team link on.

[Al]

Team is now created

[shiva]

so I take it you need to download all three files on the download page. and then do what with them.

[zombie67]

Only 2 of the three. x64 and x86. Ignore the ARM version. :)

Then double click them to install.

I didn't find a lot, but you do occasionally end up as your own wingman on this project.

I got my 100 hours yesterday so I'm done =))

[Shandia]

Another new project to take me away from my goals. :)) I can always use it as a filler of 100 hours towards another bronze star.

[shiva]

well so far I have had 3 wu's error out and all are showing 4 plus days to finish some as long as 7 days. not running the fastest computer here but it is an i7 2600k. they really taking that long.

[Shandia]

Not sure if shiva's experience is normal. I have 3 pending and the others appear to want to take longer. (no errors so far) Some could go a few days. We'll see how these work out. Not picking up any new ones as of now. I just wanted to get on the board with 100 hours. ;)

[Fire$torm]

Okay, I've updated our team info on the project's website.

Crunch on!

[shiva]

well I'm still getting junk. I'm showing 1051 hours on WUProp but I have no credit on BMG. every wu has errored out. don't know what is going on. guess I'm at least getting hours for it.

I did good for the first few. Had 3 that kept going up on hours to go. Dumped 2 of them to let my other projects work. The third I'm using for wuprop hours and will expire before it finishes. It actually passed the deadline this morning. 119 hour in....10% complete.....1100 hours to go and climbing. Yeah, they have some buggy wus.

Ive been doing a couple BMG, all went to pending.... but 1 finally did validate (qurium)
2 days, 1 work unit, 168 credits...
piss pour credits, they must be using the default in the Boinc server of 1.5 credits an hour.

The problem is the the guy running the show does not know how to change credits or give credits on a checkpoint. he asked for help on those but nobody replied that made sense or he understood how..

[Shandia]

So glad I manage to do all but 3 of the ones I got. Yeah, they are piss poor credits. lol Still humping away on the one I'm working for wuprop. Over 200 hours on his one alone and.......3000 hours to go and climbing. Up to 11% now. This project needs more than just a little experienced help on all levels if it wants to survive. =))

BMG is retired, according to Boincstats
