Next Protein?

[Dark-Paradise]

I am new here and this is the first time that I experience a protein change.

How many days does it usually take the DF team to switch to a new protein?
When will the next protein update occur?

Thanks

It generally takes an hour or two, barring the unforeseen.

Changes (almost) always happen on Tuesdays, so probably next Tuesday, at the current rate. You can get a good idea by watching the big thermometer on the main DF "Stats" page.

I have heard about the the protein change occuring on Tuesdays, so that is why I assumed that it is going to take a couple of days for them to switch, but if it is only just a couple of hours, then it's all good.

It's usually painless.

The only thing I deal with here is ZoneAlarm will recognize the executable has changed and stops internet access to foldtrajlite.exe until I re-authorize.

(I usually just turn off ZA or un-plug my cable modem on protien change days until I get home from work)

You have 24 hours to get your old folds uploaded for full credit or 48 hours for half credit after tje change is released.
