hi guys, id like to know for this distributed project if my computers need to stay connnected ? cause maybe my twin can start this distributed too (he's on dialup). he has a XP 2400+, which that may help.

Yes, you can Fold Offline. The easiest way is to run the Client with a shell like DFGUI, found here

It lets you set it as to be run Offline in the Config Menu, and then Stop it and Upload when online. I am not good at explaining so I will leave that up to my Peers It does have good documentation, but someone should point you to extra help that is dead easy to read .

You can run offline just with the configuration you'd use when running online. Everytime the client tries to upload (and fails) you'll lose some seconds of crunching but I guess that's not really worth mentioning.

Of course you can fold offline (as Grumpy said). If you don't use the GUI, just add the "-if" switch to the foldit(.bat) file. If you don't know how to do that, it's easiest to use the GUI
