Ok so I'm used to Bitcoin mining, where I just click Bitminter and tada! I'm mining

but FTC mining has got all this crazy overcomplicated stuff

This is what my .bat file looks like

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum.wemineftc.com:4444 -u username -p password -I 13


When I click it, it shows some stuff, then it goes blank, but I can hear stuff going on in my computer, and my hashrate once showed as 134 KH/s then went back to 0

and hasn't moved since

is this normal?

Did you make a cgminer.conf file?

Nope, why was I supposed to have one?

Yes, it searches for a cgminer.conf file to run off of bat file. Otherwise, you can run cgminer in the cmd line.

Can you please help me figure out if I'm actually mining FTC?

As captainfuture said, make sure you have the AMD APP SDK and the latest AMD GPU Driver.

Code:
{
"pools" : [
{
"url" : "http://www.ulr.com:port",
"user" : "username",
"pass" : "password"
}
],

"intensity" : "13, 17",
"gpu-engine" : "0-800, 0-850",
"gpu-thread" : "2, 2",
"scrypt" : true,
"api-listen" : true,
"shaders" : "800, 960",
"thread-concurrency" : "1600, 2400",
"lookup-gap" : "2, 2"
}

That's an example of a conf file for two gpu cards.
