Well, you can't have played many different games the last years if you've not met atleast one game refusing to run on non-admin account.Napoleon wrote:If you (have to) compare FAH v7 installation to BOINC v7 installation (on Windows)... well, OK, perhaps FAH install still needs some fine tuning, but at least FAH doesn't try to sell me the idea that I have to run it on an admin account in order to be able to crunch numbers on a GPU. That'd be like... Want to play this game after installation?
Really? I doubt that it's OS-dependent, so I'd be surprised if it was. What browser? Internet Exploder?Rattledagger wrote:BTW, it's interesting to see according to the FAQ, FAH-v7 doesn't work under Vista...

Not true. Please provide a link to said FAQ and statement for correction. Thanks.Rattledagger wrote:...

Hmm. I just opened FAQ-V7 in Firefox 17.0.1 under Linux Mint 14, and it looked fine to me. My first thought is that you're running an older version of Firefox. Could you check the version please?Rattledagger wrote:Firefox.Jesse_V wrote:Really? I doubt that it's OS-dependent, so I'd be surprised if it was. What browser? Internet Exploder?
Where's only one FAH-related FAQ on the development-web-pages.7im wrote:Not true. Please provide a link to said FAQ and statement for correction. Thanks.
Please do post the link to that page, there are a number of out of date pages that exist on the web site that are waiting to be updated. Some are not directly linked from the current main pages, but are reachable from old URL's. Stating that it is the only FAQ on a certain page may be obvious to you, but does not necessarily give enough information to locate the page.Rattledagger wrote:Where's only one FAH-related FAQ on the development-web-pages.7im wrote:Not true.

Well, I wouldn't expect to find any info about v7 from any old links, so followed the "Get Help"-link from the FAH-home-page under the 3rd. step, "Fold"...Joe_H wrote:Please do post the link to that page, there are a number of out of date pages that exist on the web site that are waiting to be updated.

The above should have a smaller or lower profile. Most new folders probably won't care about Project Development or APIs. They would want to know how to install the software and where to get help if they have problems, but the above quote is listed before both of those links. Making Install 1st, Forum 2nd, FAQ 3rd and APIs last would probably be more helpful to the first time folder and possibly lessen confusion for some.On the Client Development Project page you can find information specific to the new v7 client, report bugs and learn about the 3rd-party development API.

BTW, apparently where is this forum-post about various config-options and how to add them, but unfortunately it's hidden-away in the archive-part of these forums meaning it's unlikely most users finds this info.
In addition to this being untrue, I still cannot see that you have provided a link to any web page that states that this is true.Rattledagger wrote:BTW, it's interesting to see according to the FAQ, FAH-v7 doesn't work under Vista...
