this is way cool but it won't let a mining schmuck like me apply... hhrruummpphh.
Need one or more lead devs to apply ASAP.

                ]
         },

This is the whole shebang. I deleted everything but for the BTCZ config and expected symbols on the config page file. This is all of it after most recent try. I have tried with and without the comma at the end. It still reads (json parse fails)./user_config.json(17): expected key string


thank you all for helping

Thats odd ... Linux or Windows? I was just mining BTCZ with it ...

Still nothing. (can't parse json error7) Using win10 with the same 4xXFX 580s currently hammering away on v42. Tried this config most recently

update... error says missing a ":" but I can't see where I am missing one.. this config is twin to the one running v42 except for EXAMPLE … thanks

I just deleted all the old and downloaded v5 again and same result. Is there a new download I didn't see? Thank you for your hard work!

thanks, but still nothing. but now the error number is 41 instead of 15. I even matched my v42 config and that doesn't work either.

i'd insert a screenshot but no one in this house can figure out how to do that. even the 12 year old...


update: still no v5 functioning so I went back to v42. At least it mines and the difference in hashrate is so little that I have lost everything I might have gained had I suceeded in getting v5 to run. One note for others. v42 runs 4x8gb 580s just fine. When I added 2x6gb 1060s after some struggle it would read all six cards but only 5 would mine at Very Low hashrate. I go back to 4x580s and running solid again. Disappointed why I can't make v5 work at all but sadly none of the fixes resolved the situation.

this absolutely will not get recognized. will not run.  I keep getting the same Error: ./user_config.json is not found or no valid configuration file (json parse fails)

                                                                                       ./user_config.json(15): expected '}' or ','

(and every time I try to paste my config here it changes it, but the config is the match to the v.42 I have been running for months now except that on v42 the "EXAMPLE1")

Yes, thank you for responding but, I keep getting the same Error: ./user_config.json is not found or no valid configuration file (json parse fails)

                                                                                       ./user_config.json(15): expected '}' or ','

Great Big News, Lolliedieb!

can't make this work though? can someone paste a BTCZ config that works? anyone?

Thank you for all of the hard work.  Anyone? Thank you, again!

So, can I add a couple of Nvidia GPUs to my AMD lolMiner rig without altering my config?
Thanks for responding!

And terrific news on the v.05 release! Looking forward to that release and many thanks to you for all the hard work! I mentioned your upgrade over at BTCZ.


update: So, I added 2x6gb 1060s to my 4x8gb 580s rig and the lolMiner isn't reading the 1060s. Devices says "Auto"  Is there something in my config I need to change? Thank you for responding.

I lifted this quote from a post by Lolliedieb earlier today regarding his lolMiner v0.5 miner upgrade due out Tuesday or Wednesday next week as I understand....

"I never claimed of doing an better job then the other miner devs, especially I really respect ewbf, because he did an insanely performant and stable miner for Nvidia GPUs that is a really tough competition (But in fact my 0.5 144/5 implement is hashing 4% faster on my 1080 test sys  )"
 (Lolliedieb post #288 @ lolMiner)

WooHooo! Things are getting faster and faster for those who are patient.

Or maybe he is one of the schmucks that bought an ASIC hoping to get one over on BTCZ. eh? 

I wonder where someone like this guy gets his brilliance? This "know it all" knows nothing. No one has any idea which coins will or will not succeed just yet as any crypto is a long, long way from stability.

Personally I wonder why anyone would bother to come around just to trash talk other than to demonstrate how foolish you are.

Thank you Vandar for all the hard work!

Since you are using a USD symbol ($) to denote the pricing, you should know that when using the $ symbol it is always used Before the numeric value as in $1.00 being one USD. And, use a period (.) and not a (,) when indicating a portion of a USD as in $.36 meaning 36 cents or 36 US pennies or $1.05 meaning a "dollar and five cents." I only say this as US folks who don't know what you are on about may be confused in your pricing examples as in this country (US) we do a lotta stuff bass akwards. (backwards)


In my opinion the most important use of community money would be to advertise advertise, advertise as most of the world has no idea what a crypto coin even is, much less that they have different attributes and how to use them. Until folks know what this BTCZ coin is and what you can do with it, we won't get very far. God bless you and thank you again for your hard work. It looks terrific to me!  

All the fake and repetitive chatter on this forum give this thing a total look of scam. Too bad the scammers always get out front first.

I set up a friend with LolMiner a couple of days ago. Running fine and smiling except his miner has colors and mine is black and white. Was there an upgrade or am I missing something? Thanks.

This miner is "running straight, steady and true" but none of the colors. Just black and white. Is there a setting I missed? Thank you!

your miner won't allow me to edit the config file. I had it running once and now it will not restart. If I DL a new copy it runs fine but it won't allow me to edit the config file. when I try to cut your sample config and try to paste mine in it's place it always pastes in your sample again. any answers?

Hi, all. Does anyone know or want to volunteer how much power an AMD 580 8gb is consuming or a 580 8gb rig is drawing at the wall? I hear STAK is a low power miner and am very sensitive to wattage at the wall. Any help is appreciated.

I'm under volting my 580s 10% with TRIXX. Anyone else? How low can I go. No changes to clocks and hashes seem unchanged at this point. Just tryna lower wattage at the wall. Wattage was 100 before now 990. Thanks for any help, eh?
