My Living DNA Results Are In - Blog comment by jbissett - 8 Aug 2018

Thanks Louis. I received the same email, and I will be uploading all of my dna kits later today. Your blog post was very relevant. How is DMT progressing? I have not had the time to use it lately, but based on what I'm seeing for my orphaned GM in DNA Painter, I'm going to need to do some new downloads ...

DMT Now Reads @MyHeritage DNA Segment Match Files - Blog comment by lkessler - 3 Aug 2018

From Ancestry DNA, the DNAGedcom Client can only download the people you match to and the people you are ICW (in common with) along with the total match length. But Ancestry DNA does not have a chromosome browser and does not make individual segment match information available, so there's no segment match data ...

DMT Now Reads @MyHeritage DNA Segment Match Files - Blog comment by cp - 1 Aug 2018

And I know that the raw AncestryDNA from my friend was indeed downloaded in 2017. I am no expert here, so must be missing something!

DMT Now Reads @MyHeritage DNA Segment Match Files - Blog comment by cp - 31 Jul 2018

So... you are saying that DMT can't use Ancestry DNA data because it can't be downloaded. But two weeks later you say "At AncestryDNA, you need a 3rd party tool to get your DNA matches downloaded. I used the the DNAGedcom client tool.". So, if you can download it, can DMT use it?

Another attempt with Genome Mate Pro - Blog comment by lkessler - 11 Jun 2018

Thanks, Joe. I'm trying to see what capabilities GMP has and if there's any way I might be able to share information to/from it with DMT. I'm not prepared to spend the time right now to go through a 300 page User Guide but I feel fine following Leah's tutorials instead who is as close to a guru on GMP as you ...

Another attempt with Genome Mate Pro - Blog comment by jbissett - 10 Jun 2018

Hi Louis, GMP is complicated because it does so much for you. I have been a user since the original version years ago, and I must admit that there are times when I have to go to the manual or consult a guru. The beauty is that an up to date GMP file really supports my use of DMT, DNA Painter and Visual ...

Revisiting Speed and Balding - Blog comment by barryrsmith - 11 Apr 2018

The lack of information is possible, but I think unlikely. I have complete information back 5 generations, except for three ancestors who are all in Switzerland, and none of the three matches I am thinking of have anyone near Switzerland. At least two of my matches have similar completeness of records. So ...

Revisiting Speed and Balding - Blog comment by lkessler - 8 Apr 2018

Barry: You said: "for the handful of weak matches for whom we have traced a MRCA, the generational difference has usually been larger than had been predicted by the model". I would expect that is because the one MRCA you identified is one of many MRCA's that you and your match have. Neither of you has ...
