<p>Dear Gate users,<br>
1.<br>
Does the *.rndm file in Gate 3.0.0 have a different from the previous Gate versions format ?<br>
The random seed numbers in the terminal window still looks the same as in previous versions of Gate, but the saved endOfRun.rndm and beginOfRun.rnmd files are quite different.<br>
instead of usual:<br>
"<br>
9876<br>
0.51493573188781738 0.049409210681915283 0.81944370269775391....<br>
"<br>
now it looks<br>
"<br>

7969698696969869869889679<br>
707097097<br>
1312312<br>
....."<br>
Can I used somehow the "old" *.rnmd files?<br>
My system: 64bit RHEL4<br>
CLHEP 2.0.2.3<br>
Geant4 8.1.p01<br>
Root v.5.13.02<br>
gate 3.0.0<br>
2. <br>
When I run my macros file, I have:<br>
" I/O warning: failed to load external entity "Materials.xml"<br>
GateMaterialsDatabase : did not find the Materials.xml file: no properties read for material 'Water"<br>
... (and so on... for all used materials)"<br>
<br>
What does it mean? Is it some additional properties for optical transport ONLY and all materials are defined from GateMaterial.db?<br>
Although I disable the optical transport, I have Materials.xml in $GATEHOME. Why the program is still looking for *.xml ignoring existing one?<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
