unfortunately, that's the original repo. We don't have access to it, and rather sporadic contact with one of the devs. I'll try to get them to point it towards the newest repo, which is here:

https://github.com/gamecredits-project/GameCredits

Sorry about the confusion.

ok... but now i have a new error....

i use CentOS and the makefile.unix is missing.

and with autogen.sh and configure i become the error

Code:

configure: error: libdb_cxx headers missing

But i have it on my system.

Code:

locate libdb_cxx
/usr/lib64/libdb_cxx-4.7.so
/usr/lib64/libdb_cxx.so

You need bitcoin ppa, and llibdb 4.8. Just like Bitcoin core. Wait, Centos... Not familiar, but it's RPM based, right? Not sure the procedure for adding the bitcoin version of Berkeley db to that. Anyone else can help the man out?

Or if you have a binary file from gamecreditsd for linux.

For bitcoind i can download it from the main site....

noise23 was workin' on that. I'll check.

Use qt creator.  The second link is in testing stage and not recommended to use.  I wouldn't touch it.  If you need the rpm for the berkley db http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/server/db.html   

qt creator should be able to build it for you on any linux distro.

Install qt creator,
clone with git, failed
create new, kit request, (what a kit? No Kit found, cannot select any kit) cannot create qt....
uninstall.

To be honest, I always compile my own wallets, and rarely have had a problem. this one usually compiles in around ten minutes. I personally don't know how to use the QT creator thing, but I might give it a shot later in the day. Meantime, I'll try to find someone who can help you. I want things to be perfect, we have a long way to go.

download the zip.  open qt creator.  go to open file, choose the qt.pro file.  then when it opens, build.  The kits are the compilers you choose to use to build your programs.  I assume your using gcc.  It tells you at the bottom what your supposed to do.  With red thingys for errors.  All gui is based off qt widget tech for linux.  You should learn to use it.  For gui stuffs anyway.

Is there a noob guide available for mining GMC? I'm brand new to scrypt mining, and I'd like to dip my toes in first by starting on my PC and then moving to a miner, assuming I get all my ducks in a row. So hopefully you helpful folks can help get me off to the races.

I downloaded GameCredits Core and ran it, but it didn't seem obvious what to do to get started. When it runs, I see 'No block source available' in the bottom left, and on the right, if I hover over the icon I see '0 active connections to the GamerCredits network'.

I also downloaded cgminer, registered for a pool, and was having trouble running the batch file that's supposed to start it on a Windows machine. I knew that it wouldn't quite work since I don't have a dedicated graphics card installed just yet, although I have a couple laying around that are nothing special but would at least function as training wheels. But I don't see the 'cgiminer' file in the folder that I extracted; only cgming-nogpu. Not sure if this is related to the fact that I don't actually have a dedicated GPU installed yet.

Anyway, I would certainly appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. I'm sure there are detailed instructions around here somewhere...

Please join our forum (there's a help section) or irc chanel for guidance.
And welcome to GMC!

Thanks, shavers! I appreciate the good word.

I came across this video in the meantime, which cleared things up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gASgyuXUoF8

At least as far setting minerd (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55038.0) up to use my CPU instead of something else like cgminer, which I think is for ASIC GPU miners.

Believe it or not, I had already checked out the IRC channel, but there didn't seem to be anyone around. And the 'mining' forum is pretty much empty. It's all good though, I finally have things off the ground.

Out of curiosity, assuming you do your own mining, what kind of equipment do you use, and what do you mine for exactly?

Our forum is brand new Still getting the kinks out, but I'm on it every day. So are at least a couple other of the core team.

As for mining, for Scrypt you CAN do it with a CPU, but you won't get much, Scrypt is pretty much an ASIC algorithm at this time. I've never used minerd, but since cgminer and BFGminer were both derived from it, I can probably help. Please do visit our forum, and invite your friends.

I currently mine exclusively GMC (as you might expect from part of the dev team) and my pool is gmc.cryptocloudhosting.org. That's the landing page, where you can also find a bootstrap file and a block explorer

Is it viable to rent a rig anf to mine GMC? I am quite a noob at mining so want to see if I can also rent and mine. I am glad to see it is on my favorite exchange POLONIEX..Blog post coming tomorrow as well for GMC..I like this coin for the future growth of crypto..

That is one of those "it depends" sort of questions. If your goal is acquiring coins, yes, it's doable and with our ongoing promotion will probably be profitable down the line. If you're looking to turn them instantly for BTC, you have to do cost calculations of the mining rig vs. number of coins you'll likely generate. I always take 10% off of the advertised hashrate for safety. Usually the variance isn't that high, but there are a lot of things that can affect it at any given moment.

Hey guys, I have some Gamercredits, but I can't see them in my wallet.  I can see them on the block explorer, but I have sync'd, re-sync'd, transferred wallet between platforms, and still nothing.  I am using what I believe to be the latest wallet, and I'm dumbfounded.  I even did -salvagewallet and still nothing.  Am I missing something?

I used the bootstrap, as well as let the wallet sync from scratch.  What else can I try?

Thanks in advance...

Send me a PM, I'll try to help. I caught this very late.
