Folding Forum

Thanks for the advise! I'll stick with v7 to keep it simple and will look for V8 in the future (at least when all will be OK with my account).

Hi there :) Any news :?: By the way if I want to create a V8 account to fold on another computer using V8, I must then create an account with same passkey, team and mail. The ">" character is denied in the username field form as stated by @calxalot before . What will happen if I create a V...

[...] "[AF>Libristes]Maeda", it contains three characters that are not officially supported for folding. The stats database has been more permissive in accepting unsupported characters.[...] Does that mean the squared brackets will also be denied in the future? If yes, I hope you will pla...

OK thanks for checking for me. Let's see then what solution they offer.
If I could change the username to solve this issue, I would have done it .

No problem, I'm not in a hurry. Just want things to be set correctly :mrgreen: BTW, my WU has just reported and has correctly increased the same account data (database record I would say). Nice! The only side-effect is that I will never be able to use the Bonus web page check (cannot match the usern...

@Joe_H: I have followed your advise. Folding is in progress. I will see if WU correctly reporting and maybe bonus will come too. I keep you posted.

So what about generating a new passkey on my own (I know the webpage should generated one for me, I'm searching for another option) but with 32 char (hex to match bac...

I just finished the remaining WU's and stopped the activity. So I tried to put the username and email but I got a "ERROR: error" as a result on the web page. I tried both "[AF>Libristes]Maeda" and "[AF>Libristes]Maeda" (latest is what is in config.xml) but got th...

OK then which of the below step is the best least effort/risk approach to keep current account statistics ? 1- Change the passkey using your link and set it in the config.xml? What about the username with special character (as the bonus API has trouble with those ones)? 2- Change name in the config....

Hello, User since years now, but first post here :). I cannot see my bonus state and based on contacts I have (on Boinc), my Bonus seems to be gone. I tried to check on the Bonus web page but my account is not found at all (:!:)... My estimated PPD per GPU on the FAHclient (V7) is stable and like I ...
