Dear Nick,

nice to hear that you want to use SCIP for your project!

Whenever you start SCIP it checks whether there is a "scip.set" file in 
your working directory. If this is the case SCIP uses all values 
specified in this file as the default.Otherwise, SCIP is using it's 
default values for all parameters.

So, if you see your parameter changes in the *.set file everything 
should be fine. Which parameters did you change? Do you see any changes 
in the *.res or *.out files?


Regards,

Benny
