AMD Users Team - http://eternity2.net/team_display.php?teamid=1
(that's right, we're the #1 team! :))

Applications for Windows and Linux are available.

PROBLEM - Seems like right now there's a file missing and the workunits don't run. :icon_neutral:

Interesting. I joined you. I was able to dl a wu, but like you said, it wont run.

You have to read the fine details of the Project holy cow, this one is going to be difficult, you actually have to do some external work here in assembling a text file. This text file is explained here:http://eternity2.net/definition.php

You should have purchased the game so you will understand what puzzle pieces you are referring too in your quest to write the perfect algorithm~! :sad5:

Link to actual GAME => http://uk.eternityii.com/competition-rules-eternity2/ This does not start till 7-28-07

Ah, I see. I didnt buy the game. Here is a online demo of a working puzzle to try.
http://uk.eternityii.com/try-eternity2-online/

The Online DEMO is too much I can't solve this blasted game! God this is frustrating, nerve racking, ball busting~! It is tormenting my mind into submission..... Why do I frustrate myself over such a trivial $1,000,000.oo US Dollars as a prize to succeed with figuring out this game! :icon_twisted::icon_mad::icon_razz::icon_lol: :blob3:

Your not the only one. That online demo looks easy. That's when I had 1-2 pieces left and they don't fit. Gave up after 10mins. :lol:

I don't get it... following the instructions, won't everyone create the exact same pieces file every time?

And if not, how many times would we have to create new text files? Once for each workunit?

That sounds like a good question to email the developer and ask There NeoGen?

I left a couple of posts on the project's boards. Will wait a day for a reply...

Heh, played the online demo again. Finished it in 4mins 34secs. :)
