NeuroFly 2.2.0

Download: NeuroFly-2.2.0-win-x64.zip, a portable build for Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit). Unzip it anywhere and start NeuroFly.exe; nothing is installed and nothing connects to the internet. The build is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may warn on first start: choose More info → Run anyway.

What is new in 2.2.0

• Much faster. The Live view runs at about twice the frame rate of 2.1.0 on a 4-core laptop with integrated graphics (26 → 56 fps): the interface only redraws what changed, the terrarium's scenery is drawn in far fewer passes, and the 3D connectome view needs 6 draw calls instead of up to ~85. The simulation keeps real time.
• Reproducible sessions. A session — the terrarium's layout and the fly's starting point included — is rebuilt exactly from the seed shown in the header.
• More rigorous experiments. The activation screen compares every cell type with its control on an amount or a proportion (Mann–Whitney or Fisher, Holm-adjusted), labels exploratory matches and lets the network settle before each trial. Walking can break off grooming only when the walking command is held.
• Sentience map checked against the primary source (Gibbons et al. 2022), with a row that states plainly what cannot be measured: felt experience.
• Complete German interface, tidier sentience criteria, and an eye-image regression test in the standard test gate.

Wiring and synapse counts are measured (FlyWire FAFB v783, MaleCNS v1.0); neural dynamics, senses, body and behaviour are models. Full validation notes: windows/VALIDATION.md.

NeuroFly 2.1.0

The first public release of NeuroFly for Windows.

Download: NeuroFly-2.1.0-win-x64.zip, a portable build for Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit). Unzip it anywhere and start NeuroFly.exe; nothing is installed. The build is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may warn on first start: choose More info → Run anyway.

What is in it

• A 7,270-neuron FlyWire FAFB v783 brain circuit (784,219 signed synapse-count connections) and a 1,045-neuron MaleCNS v1.0 walking circuit, in closed loop with a modelled body at 120 Hz.
• For every takeoff, grooming bout, backward walk or proboscis extension, the causal chain from stimulus to neurons to movement.
• Virtual genetics and pharmacology, ten guided experiments with statistics, and recordings with run manifests and data fingerprints.
• An anatomy explorer for BANC v888, MaleCNS v1.0 and FAFB v783.
• Runs entirely on your computer: no account, no telemetry, no network connections.
