; ''Save Arrays Using Binary Files'' : Choose this option to save all 2D arrays used as MODFLOW input as binary arrays in external files. If this option is not selected, the 2D arrays are written within the respective files in ASCII format. The binary option results in more files, but uses less disk space. There is also a time savings during running for MODFLOW models with large grids. | ; ''Save Arrays Using Binary Files'' : Choose this option to save all 2D arrays used as MODFLOW input as binary arrays in external files.

; ''Enable saving of computed flows for all source/sink objects'' : This option allows GMS to create a flow observation for all sources/sinks that were created using the '''Map→MODFLOW''' command so that the user can see the computed flux through the group of boundary conditions. If the user is doing a transient simulation then having this option may cause MODFLOW to crash because MODFLOW attempts to allocate more memory than any of us have available. Turning off this option in this situation is the best course of action. | |||
