You do not need this to run Firefly in parallel.

Assuming you are using Windows version of Firefly 8.0.0 RC on a standalone
multicore system, you need to launch Firefly as follows:

Firefly8.exe -np 2

This will launch Firefly in parallel with two processes.

Firefly8.exe -np 4

will launch Firefly in parallel with four processes etc...

You may put some command line options before the -np command line
switch, e.g.

Firefly8.exe -r -f -p -i test.inp -o test.out -np 4

Note the samples above are actually for nt-mpich-smp bindings
that are the default for Firefly v. 8.0.0 RC.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Alex Granovsky
