Help making a new Altcoin (my plan explained inside)

Yeah the small change made it pretty easy he linked to the difference page in another thread making it easy to see what he edited in the code for small change. Editing the code doesn't seem to bad, it's compiling where I feel ill hot a wall since I don't how to compile a windows client (since I run 64 bit windows 7).

I also dont get what is diff between tenebrix and ltc source code, seems its nearly same. Mark you want someone to restart tenebrix under some new name?

tenebrix was the first scrypt coin.  ltc copied it from tenebrix (sort of, could be said it copied it from fairbrix which in
turn copied it from tenebrix).

It also might have the fairest distribution, since it has not been limited to people with huge GPU farms; anyone has been able to pick some up all along even with just a CPU.

So it is one of the coins that have all along been providing the much asked-for feature of being accessible to ordinary machines without even needing a GPU.

Would it be able to maintain that if it received more attention, or is it just it's obscurity that gives it this benefit?  Did Litecoin change the scrypt drastically or something?

[markm]

It has enjoyed the benefits of obscurity, just like bitcoin did in its early years.
