Preferences > CPU Affinity

When I set this to ON, in the preferences for WinEQ2, it stays selected as ON or OFF. However, when I close WinEQ2 and then load it up again, the selection is blank. I had a look inside the "WinEQ-EQ.ini" file and am not sure where it's saving the ON or OFF setting.

My guess would be this line here...

MultiThreaded=1

If this is the value that changes, it's not updating in the .ini file. I manually changed the value from 0 to 1. Changing the ON/OFF setting in the preferences still had no affect on this string value.

Yes, I am aware of the display issue with the general settings in WinEQ 2 preferences. MultiThreaded is not the setting you want. The setting is SetCPUAffinity, and you can set it to 0

Hmm, the SetCPUAffinity string doesn't appear in my WinEQ-EQ.ini file. I'll add it and set the value to 0 which should = ON right?

What did the MultiThreaded=1 value do? I had changed it from 0.

Err.. Now that you mention it, it is supposed to be in WinEQ2.ini which hasnt been being created, and now I think a mystery is solved. Also, it would be SetAffinity and not SetCPUAffinity as I had said

i'll get this fixed this weekend, but you CAN create WinEQ2.ini and put this in it, and it will read it.

WinEQ2.ini

Code: Select all

[General]
SetAffinity=0

Nice. 0 = ON or OFF?

0 is off, 1 is on.

Excellent. What does the MultiThreaded= option do?

Nothing. It's not used anymore
