OpenFold3 Parameters

The list of parameters available with OpenFold3 are as follows

Checkpoint Name	File Name	Version compatibility	Number of training steps
openfold3-p2-155k (default)	of3-p2-155k.pt	>=0.4.0	155,000
openfold3-p1 (deprecated)	of3_ft3_v1.pt	<0.4.0	78,000

Which parameters is OpenFold3 using?

If a specific parmater file path is provided, OpenFold3 will use that file. Otherwise, OpenFold3 will first check default directories for previously downloaded parameters.

The following schematic describes the resolution of paths through searching default directories.
