Not much of an update, since most people aren't playing the actual game and are actually just using the bot, but anyway. If you replace the games image files with these, it will make the game look (IMO) a bit nicer. grass.bmpground.bmpsky.bmpHunterMinerCrafter is going to add theming features. Well at least was.

got the qt up and running with the blocks and the chain state. still starts up at 92 weeks out. Is this ok or did I do something wrong? Qt is downloading right now at 90. thanks
When I did it the first time I noticed I had a blocks folder within the blocks folder, and so obviously the files I downloaded, copied and pasted were not being used and new ones had been created... Not sure if this happened because of my own mistakes or misleading instructions, but I had to repeat all the steps under "Wallet download" in order to get it working, paying attention to where the files needed to be, which ones I needed to delete and such before running the qt. I am 100 percent sure I did what the instructions said. But whatever. I suggest someone get on this because it just deters people away. Im a knucklehead so I will just wait it out but I know people now a days don't want to wait more than 10 mins. Go to %appdata% and check what is in the blocks and chainstate folder. If it is another folder that is also blocks or chainstate respectively, then cut the contents of the second folder and paste them into the first folder. This might solve some issues you're having. I think what is happening is people are extracting the zip file into its own folder that holds the contents. This is what is creating the "double folder" issue.

Good there is action here again, it looks as a new life for MOTO.
Yes, we hope so. Though we do need someone as a developer.

Does this mean that if your CPU only had two threads it wouldn't work? That might explain the problems one person was having.

It's gonna be in the next major update. Why? Do you need it right now? As far as I've checked this a few months ago, it's not necessary to change this line of code to make it compilable with boost > 1.58. Just change how boost is handled in the Makefile. Anyhow, there is going to be a decision with the next update about what minimum boost, Qt, etc.. version we will require and why. Ok, I don't need it now, I was just wondering why it hadn't been merged.
Also, something kind of off topic with spreadcoin but kind of not...I was just messing around and was wondering if this could be a suitable reward expression: nSubsidy = 20 / 3 / (2 ^ (1 / g_RewardHalvingPeriod * nHeight ) )
I'm not sure if power is represented as ^ or pow(x, y) in C++ so if it's pow() then: nSubsidy = 20 / 3 / pow( 2 , ( 1 / g_RewardHalvingPeriod * nHeight ) )
The main question is, will different CPU's round differently (or something) and cause a fork to occur? If not, then we could upgrade spreadcoin's "smooth" reward halving to an even smoother one like this. Edit: I'm trying to understand Spreadcoin's reward calculation. If you graph the reward over many blocks, is the curve made of many straight lines like this: https://i.imgur.com/pZdUuBH.gif Or is it an actual curve? Edit2: Ok I figured it out, Here is a graph. Red is current block reward over time, Blue is proposed Block reward over time. I just need to make some small adjustments so that the sum of all block rewards of the blue curve match the sum of all block rewards of the red one (at each halving). Does anyone else like this idea? Edit3: Ok after a long time of trial and error (I know, pretty stupid, but I couldn't be bothered thinking about other ways) I finally found the perfect formula: nSubsidy= 6.9314718514867 / (2 ^ (1 / g_RewardHalvingPeriod * nHeight ) ) Now at each halving, using the proposed block formula, the sum of all previous blocks matches with the old formula's sum of all previous blocks. Top Number is Block Number, Second is the sum of all blocks from the old algo, Third is the sum of all blocks of the new algo. I know it's 6 decimal places, it was coded in Lua and I don't know how to change that.

I plan to update the wallet so that in the game tab of the wallet there is a button for the bot to mine and a button to play the motogame to mine. Then we can bundle the bot with the wallet.
It may take a while because I don't really know C++ or QT very well, but I'm sure I can work it out.
Just look at your nearest C++ for Dummies book & Qt for Beginners. Start out by learning to create a basic click button window tab. Hey Nthused, yep that's what I'm doing! I was following tutorial for QT and since I live in Queensland I get a free pass to Lynda.com so I'm looking at tutorials involving C++ on there.

I am finding a block ~every 2 minutes. When the bot is running it makes my computer freeze up. Chrome doesn't respond very well. So I made it only use 3 cores of my CPU instead of 4. Now everything is smooth again.
If you would like to do this here are the instructions:
Open up Task Manager. Find the motogame.exe process. Do this instruction if you're on windows 10- right click > go to details. Right Click > Set affinity
Then deselect the 1st core or select only the cores you want mining. I leave the 1st core unchecked so that my computer has a core for the other processes.

ok is it 100% mining? i dont want to leave it on all night if nothings happening, as i said its at 90% cpu, keeping the wallet open, just wish there was something to reassure me its actually mining lol.
I am not 100% sure that it is mining. It probably isn't worth it for you if you've been mining for 1 hour and haven't found a block yet.

ive got
AMD E-450 APU with radeon hd graphics 1.65ghz
ram 6gb
they good enough or too slow?
It might be too slow, I'm not too sure. You'll probably hit a block soon if you keep mining.

ive been mining for the past hour and haven't got any moto coins :/ any ideas whats going on? process is defo running using 90% cpu nearly constantly, wallet is all up to date on blocks... no idea... Did you launch the bot through the wallet, or just launch the .exe? Oh wait, it wouldn't work if you launched it directly through the .exe. Is your CPU fast?

I just noticed, we're coming up to the halving, at block 1 000 000.

I noticed that their wallet is not synchronized. It is stuck at the 966749 block. Now the last block is 970310!
YES I've done that and they told me if I can post the proof of the transaction on the block explorer!
Damn, this is why I don't like c-cex, we need to get onto bittrex. That is a shame, there is not a block explorer. We had one, but it isn't working anymore. It never fully worked. I withdrew quite a huge amount of coins, so if I can't get them, I won't be very happy. Do not worry. The coins are not disappeared, only that the wallet is not synchronized! I sent the link of the new thread and a dozen new nodes to synchronize the faster the wallet! They have had problems with the wallet with an old node. Now we have to wait that their wallet is synchronized! They said to me that in order for them the change the link to the new thread, we need to update the OP of the old thread to match this thread. At least that is what I got out of it, it wasn't in the best english. I told them it wasn't possible and I am waiting on a reply.

Hello, there is a functional block explorer? I have a problem with c-cex. I deposited 3320 motocoin, but they do not see my transaction, how come? Status: 1457 confirmations Date: 20/02/2016 12:12 To: MoXMH8ZyjuovN4aNBoyH7LSgsvxLDCqgFRe Debit: -3320.091 MOTO Transaction fee: -0.013 MOTO Net amount: -3320.104 MOTO Transaction ID: 161ca2d976d574546c7fddb39f5f93068bba391b1c17a2b049f6ad057915b2b4 I also checked here but I do not know if it works: https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/BlockExplorer?coin=MOTOCan you help me? thank you I just withdrew from c-cex and I have not recieved my coins... Maybe this has something to do with me asking them to change the link to the forum from the old one to the new one. Edit; No I don't think so. Send them a support ticket. There is a spot to put the txid.

bot working only with amd?
The bot uses CPU only and is compiled for x86 processors. needed to install additional libraryes? msvc or ..? on my virtual machine bot dont wont work.. When I run the bot, I always open up task manager and see the process using 90% of my CPU. If you open up task manager, you should look for the name of a process called motogame.exe. If you see it, that means the bot is running.

Here is the complete blockchain! Downloaded in 3 days! Maybe you could upload your chainstate folder if you didn't sync since then? P.S. Some observations: We have at least 10 new miners and hash rate is pretty much distributed now. I added the chainstate folder to the OP, and yes, I put my computer offline, because I already knew. People having issues with the blockchain, please try again now, as we have fixed everything.If we want the rescanning process to not happen, then we will need to create a zip folder of not only the blocks folder, but also the chainstate and database folders. I will do this now then upload these folders so that the process is quicker.
Make sure you are offline during that rescan so your chainstate folder will match that blocks folder. Also, as I've already told you, database folder is private and should not be uploaded. Haha thats funny, I realised this and edited my above post before you posted your comment.

After I extract block.zip to %appdata%/motocoin/ the wallet fails to load up, it hangs infinitely. Hang on, I'll check out what is wrong. Edit: The wallet seems to be rescanning the blockchain from block 0. This process is known to take days... We are working on a fix. Edit2: Ok the rescanning process isn't actually taking that long. If you look at the debug.log file in the %appdata%/Motocoin folder you can see the progress at the bottom. (after the wallet is started) Look at the tx=<blocknumber> When it gets to the blocknumber of around 970000 it will stop rescanning and the wallet will start. If we want the rescanning process to not happen, then we will need to create a zip folder of not only the blocks folder, but also the chainstate and database folders. I will do this now then upload these folders so that the process is quicker.
