How's it goin' kid?

There must come a point when you decide to buy a stronger chain or go for a polyester fibre rope.

Na, we love the links too much to discard them.....

How's it goin' kid?

Pretty well, thanx:) Give LSM my regards:) Hi Chris!

LSM smiles and says: "hello" to you both.
:)

I always think that Seti and its kit are like a chain, in that it is only as strong as its weakest link. That breaks and you mend it, then the next weakest link breaks. There must come a point when you decide to buy a stronger chain or go for a polyester fibre rope.

Evening Julie :-)

That is when the anchor point the chain is attached to brakes, which is much harder to repair.

Happy mid-morning all.

Everything is as expected. SETI is down, there is no work and there wont be for a while.

*belated boinc in* Hello you lovely lot! :) How is everyone? :) Well I hope... or at least improving if not quite up to par :)

Oh look! :) *Big grin* our leader and playground monitor is... busy :) I wonder what kind of racket would... *cast gaze ALL around thread* ...get his full attention...? :)

Outta here!

Chilling with some music here:)

Game is unplayable due to big bugs like mouse acceleration that cannot be disabled, very stuttery gaming, crashes to desktop, a memory leak and that was only the first 2 hours. Ah, and online play is impossible as the Ubisoft server dropped off line after more than 3 people connected to it.

Got those glorious Elderscrolls Online Launch Day feelings all over again. ;-)

So to get rid of the stuttering, I am unindexing the hard drive the game's installed on. But since that's a 2TB drive, it takes a while.
Anyone know of an easy way to deselect all the file types in the Advanced Options of the Windows Indexing Options?

Did some Google searches but could not find anything...
Just turning it off (Disable) via the System Services menu (services.msc). I have found it be just another MS resource and disk hog.

Yeah, I am unindexing all hard drives/partitions now. But even that doesn't deselect all the file types. Maybe during a sleepless night I'll go sit clicking on all those check boxes one by one. Or not... :)

:( Sorry Jord I don't. Hope you get to play it without glitches soon though!

Apparently you can disable the indexing of all files on the hard drive(s), but not the searchindexer.exe which indexes everything so you can search them quicker. When you disable or uninstall this search indexer, you can't search anything in Windows anymore.

Of course this searchindexer.exe is also making the game stutter. Even though I told it to only do indexing on the C: drive and then only select directories, none of which I have my game installed in.

Ah I give up. Tomorrow's another day.

Try
"Far Cry 4" jerky
in a search engine. There's a few results that may help.

Although possibly not the ad for Jim's Beef Jerky.

Thanks for the welcome. :)

Seti is back up but I've only received 2 units since the outage. At least the boards are back.

Sounds familiar. IIRC nothing I tried helped, but the light at the end of the tunnel is that once the index is built it only indexes stuff that changes. Oh, my issue was that the search indexer was messing with the BOINC heartbeat. I can't say for sure, but I suspect if you change what is supposed to be indexed, it throws the old index away and starts from scratch!

I know. I think most of us will be lucky to snag more than a couple work units a day. The only thing available are resends, results don't match or timeout no response.

I've already posted a couple of things in the Far Cry 4 forum.

unemployed setizen seeking a "go" on Jord's Far Cry :)

Hope you're getting somewhere with resolving that...
