Okay, so up till 0.3.3.1 we had wallet.dat in the main folder. I agree until Sia is more sophisticated with features the wallet file
is best left in the main folder because if you want to host large amounts you are going to want to run Sia from a dedicated large
drive. Anyway, I'm sure the devs know what to do with that in the long run.
So now for 0.3.3.1 where is the wallet.dat? I swear I'm not lying I had a 0.3.3.1 on one of my computers with the wallet.dat in
the normal spot. Now when I zip a new 0.3.3.1 to a new location the wallet.dat is no longer there. I have several wallet.dat with balances
backed up but they are all from 0.3.3. So now I deleted everything sia related including the roaming folder. I now unzip 0.3.3.1 and start Sia.
Wallet.dat is not in the usual spot and is neither in roaming.
The wallet.dat file is in the same place. Did you keep your old wallet.dat? If you haven't run siad yet, none of the folders have been created - they don't exist until you run siad. (Sia UI will start siad if siad is not already running).
ok, tried the latest GPU miner, but do not like it because its set to mine at about 50% of what old miners do? not sure how or why that is. So anyways back using one of the early released (miners) at full set speed.
Apparently some of my "optimizations" are only good for nvidia cards. My GPU is running 6x as fast. I'm sorry that yours has slowed down as a result, I haven't been able to test on amd cards and so I'm completely in the dark when I'm making changes.
My guess though is that you've got a 64bit gpu, but many of my optimizations catered to my 32bit gpu. I'm not sure how to write a program that does both, this stuff is tricky. Your best hope is convincing someone with more experience to open source an optimized miner. We've got a lot of other things we need to focus on.
We'll nonetheless continue to try making incremental improvements to the GPU.
This coin is the absolutely hands down, the fastest transferring coin in the world! you blink and its there
Careful with that. All transfers have 0-confirmations. The default mining pool software will refuse to acknowledge double-spends but someone could possible re-write the software on their own machines. (this is why exchanges can't use us yet, btw). The next release will be able to report balances with X confirmations (0, 1, 6, etc.) - much safer when moving large amounts of money.
Hey I'm getting the error calling /host/announce : host address not reachable; ensure you have forwarded port 9982 error message when I try to announce some hosting. Thing is I know port 9982 is forwarded and not blocked so anyone know the trick to get it to work?
I haven't heard of anyone getting that to work right? You could test it on that link to IP port tester website, pages back or even try turn off firewall briefly to see if it opens then? I am still waiting for more guidance on that.. announcing" I think its bugged. lol
As they develop the wallet they really need to correct that, and make it user friendly. I don't see the masses one day port forwarding to easily lol
We're planning on having upnp enabled in the next release or two, masses for the most part won't need to worry about it. For some people, port forwarding doesn't seem to be sufficient. We're not sure what's up with that. Maybe your router is only forwarding ipv6?

The current state of the wallet and network is just the beginning. Over the next 3-6 months we have a substantial number of upgrades planned.
