Megaminer 6.3 - Multi pool / Multi Algo launcher

[sconklinbtc]

For using 24h profits, just change MiningMode from automatic to automatic24h in the bat file.

for which pools does automatic24h work (or does it work for all of them)?

Anyone that reports a 24h estimate. I know the YIIMP based pools do, as I mine on those  (zPool, ahash, yiimp, hash refinery). I personally mine on zpool and hash refinery.

[sconklinbtc]

How does automatic 24h work?  You switch algos once per day to whatever is best?

It still queries the API based on the interval you have set, then makes switches based on the most profitable estimate at this time. Why I like it is that it allows me to mine what's most profitable overall, not just what happens to be the current spike at the time of the API query, as a spike doesn't greatly effect 24h estimates.

Yes, that makes sense. I've been thinking of trying that.  probably do that soon.

So tried automatic 24h.  No mining pool hub with this option?  Is there anyway to use mining pool hub with automatic 24h even if mining pool hub just uses whatever is most profitable at the moment?

So when I restarted to go into 24h mode, it started testing the algorithms again.  Problem is, its testing ones that failed before and just keeps doing this every time I start. I have to manually end the interval so it will get past them.  I suppose I could try and delete them, but this is what I was talking about with multipool miner, it doesn't restart them everytime you start up again.

I'm not sure if MPH's API gives the 24h information or how that effects the miner calculations. What I do to prevent retesting is literally define the algorithms I want to mine in the bat file:

Code:

-Algorithm nist5,neoscrypt,xevan,lyra2v2,phi,equihash,x17,lbry,keccak

[robl450]

potentially I could add the algorithms but there are some that work on one miner and not the other.  I can manually go and delete miners and such which I did for one or two, but then it becomes a hassle every time you upgrade versions. 

Big problem now is I really want to use MPH but also use the 24 hour profit as it works much better than it switching every whatever minutes to a new algorithm.

Just a heads up to anyone that just wants to copy and paste the stats folder to not benchmark again, the 5.0 introduces N- to all the miner names, so to copy and paste, you'll need to rename all your files. I just let the benchmark run again in case there were any changes in how the information was stored in the files, but wanted to give everyone a heads up since I just discovered it the hard way.

Edit: I assume A- was also added to AMD miners, but I have none to test.

question , what am i missing , for example Claymore ETH only testing dual with DCR , even tho Lbry and SC are included in config file , same with Excavator , i manually added additionally Lbry to miner json , still nothing , messing with 5.0 master

p.s. since i have MPH and Yiimp on my pool list , blake2b and lbry should be available ...

Not support 12 GPU

program error can used 0-9  only 10 gpu

No MM gpu number limit, but I think some miners has. What error your get?

That Miner works with 12 gpus out of MegaMiner?

i try direct form ccminer

have you used -d parameter calling out of MM?

It seems like ccminer -d parameter fails for index greater than 10.

Launch GPUlist.bat and see if cuda device 11 exists

have you defined wallets for Yiimp coins?, Yiimp hasn´t autoexchange to BTC, you only can mine on a pool if you has defined wallet for that coin in config.txt

yep , i have defined wallets for all yiimp and mph listed coins , benchmarking uses just blake14r part and completely ignoring lbry and blake2b , i even tried to make standalone miner file and left in only sia part

"Algorithms": [
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_40":" -dcoin sc -dcri 40"},
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_60":" -dcoin sc -dcri 60"},
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_80":" -dcoin sc -dcri 80"},
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_100":" -dcoin sc -dcri 100"},
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_120":" -dcoin sc -dcri 120"},
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_140":" -dcoin sc -dcri 140"},
                {"Ethash_Blake2b_160":" -dcoin sc -dcri 160"}
               ]

, nothing , it just gets ignored .... im out of ideas

MPH hasn´t 24h statistics, only thing you can do is use 24h statistics from Whattomine.


There is a pool called whattomine virtual, it can use any other pool to mine but based on WTM statistics. Default pool order now is: MPH, Suprnova, Yiimp. Search coin in first pool if not find seach second, etc. If you only want to mine on MPH edit this code and delete other pools lines


      switch ($PoolOrder)
                                        {
                                                "1"{$PoolToSearch='MINING_POOL_HUB'}
                                                "2"{$PoolToSearch='Suprnova'}
                                                "3"{$PoolToSearch='YIIMP'}

I have tried and found Yiimp pool is "complicated" for dual mining.

Decred pool is usually full
It has Blake2s, but not siacoin only Neva and Tajcoin (has you wallets for that?
Lbry is working well for me when I add @@Walllet_LBC

siacoin = blake2b
blake2s is a different algo

[stunvn]

Do you know what pool support payout BCH?

[ronnylov]

Is there no Linux support for this tool?
I don't like mining in Windows. Only Linux on my miners.

                                        }

I have been loading with start.bat.   pick automatic and all options are there,  pick automatic 24 hour and MPH is not included there.    Are you saying just pick What to mine instead?  I want to mine on ahashpool, zpool, hashrefinery and MPH.

I'll add this to the github when I can get home and get my logs to include, but it appears, since upgrading to the 5.0 release, that after sometime (I'm unsure of the exact interval) it replaces my GTX 960 group with the hashrates from my GTX 1080 group on the profits screen. I'm unsure if it's using this data for the profit calculation, I would assume yes, but it was late and I couldn't investigate further. So I deleted and rebenchmarked last night, and this morning I woke up to the same thing. I quickly looked at the files in the stats folder, and they appeared to be correct and not with the data the live program was using, but again, didn't have time to look too deeply into it yet. I'm only posting this in case someone else is have this issue as well, and I'll create an issue on github with the relevant logs tonight, when I get home from work.

Lyra2v2 is problematic for nvidia, the miner itself reports 30% higher hashrate than actual. Perhaps you should add a penalty for the algorithm on nvidia or check what miner gives a real hashrate.
