[ANN][YAC] yacoin: yet another altcoin. START is now.

[tacotime]

For shits and giggles, finally compiled this on unix too.  Was able to get 400 KH/s on Ubuntu with a single 2700K.  All you need to do is compile the QT program with the chacha AVX extensions bundled with scrypt-jane and use GCC 4.7 x64, and boom, really high hash rates.

Install ubuntu and compile with g++/QT-creator is my best advice.

This is probably why people on Linux are reporting so many more blocks than everyone else.

I have had such great luck following directions on the OP, and I mean a whole lotta luck.

Download Windows files from MEGA.

Unzip

Run QT and let it update.

Close QT

Open up CMD prompt and move to the location of the QT executable using cd command.
Use Command for windows give on OP, modify genproclimit for # of threads. Code Below:
yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 -addnode=82.211.30.212

Sit back and let it find blocks.

Tried to compile my own GUI with uPnP support to help out the noobs.  Ended up with this mess:

Oh well, will try again tomorrow. If anyone is interested, my fork is here - https://github.com/phorensic/yacoin . Tried using miniupnpc-1.6.20120509.  Oh, and pocopoco's yacoin fork would not let me fork it for some reason.  Every time it clicked the fork button it took me to the wrong page, so I created a repo from scratch.

Hi all, i type command getmininginfo
and recieve this-
{
"blocks" : 31430,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.10241476,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 23699,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

it is mean i in mining?

Try the directions I left two posts up

[efo]

Check in your client getmininginfo - what you see

[Resetif]

where to insert it? - yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 -addnode=82.211.30.212

[96redformula]

where to insert it? - yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 -addnode=82.211.30.212

I added it in.

Open up CMD prompt and move to the location of the QT executable using cd command.

Then put in the command with the correct # of threads for genproclimit.  Remember -genproclimit=# of threads

[efo]

client-help-debug -console type getmininginfo

[Stevenrm87]

Ok I finally synched made the bat file and everything but I says I dont have passowrd or username set in configuration file. Does anyone know where that file is or how I need to create it etc?

much appreciated

[Resetif]

do not get it.

It must be inserted (- yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 -addnode=82.211.30.212) into Yacoin.conf ?

or

D:\Yacoin\yacoin-qt.exe - yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 -addnode=82.211.30.212

?

[jdebunt]

gonna try & mine again, had some power issues overnight so couldn't let it run (damn thunderstorms)

hope to get some blocks in the next 12 hours so i'll be at or over 1000 YAC

No, you open up CMD prompt and point it to the correct directory using cd command.

I.E.  If on your desktop in win 7, replace username with your username, and assuming you change the long yacoin folder name to just yacoin and it is on your desktop.  Here would be the commands in cmd prompt.

cd c:\users\username\desktop\Yacoin

yacoin-qt -gen -genproclimit=1 -addnode=82.211.30.212

This yacoin only CPU ?

[96redformula]

This yacoin only CPU ?

Yes, currently.

Yes, currently.

what to use for the miner for CPU ?

[96redformula]

This yacoin only CPU ?

Yes, currently.

what to use for the miner for CPU ?

The instructions I left will set the CPU to mine already.  No external miner needed.

what client?

guiminer-scrypt suitable for yacoin ?
