Well done, but are you sure the X11 vsLTC is higher than Nscrypt vsLTC?

Hello pool waflfe..
mining for x11 now.
May i ask, is that setting -p d=256 for example set for pool difficulty or network difficulty? Because when my miner connects to your eu pool, it says connected to eu.wafflepool... difficulty 0.160 as user xxxxxxxxxxxx difficulty 193
Then when miner starts it says pool difficulty set to 0.160. network difficulty set to 193. So my question is that setting sets pool or network difficulty?
Thanks
edit: it seems like it is for pool difficulty, so may i ask what am i doing wrong that my set difficulty is not recognized ?
sgminer.exe --kernel x11mod -u xxxx -p d=256 -o stratum+tcp://eu.wafflepool.com:3331 ...
Thanks for help

from http://wafflepool.com/newalgos help: Password: Any. "d=XXX" accepted to set difficulty (0.008 up to 2.048, powers of 2 only). I also tried to set difficulty but it still at 0.160

There isn't such a thing as network difficulty, at least not in a way that you can set. Network difficulty is set by the coin that is being mined (the difficulty to solve a block). Pool difficulty (miner difficulty really, since it is set per-miner), is what you're controlling (the difficulty to solve a share). X11 is a very difficult POW algorithm than Scrypt/Scrypt-N, and thus uses a very different difficulty base. Difficulty 256 (d=256) makes sense on Scrypt/N, but on X11, base difficulty is 0.16. If you check the startup guide on the newalgos page (where you hit "Enable", you can see that difficulty is allowed to be from 0.008, to 2.048. You need to change the d=XXX value from http://wafflepool.com/newalgos help: Password: Any. "d=XXX" accepted to set difficulty (0.008 up to 2.048, powers of 2 only). I also tried to set difficulty but it still at 0.160 It changes on the first block change (normally around 30 seconds). You should see it change after a bit, assuming you have a valid value.

I don't know what you mean? Those are actual values, they're not assumptions. They're [BTC earned] / hashrate, normalized to 24hrs of mining.

Thanks PW! Just pointed 20MH/s X11 at the test pool.
Well I guess my calculations were off and instead of 20MH/s I'm getting 44MH/s. I'm getting about 9.5X the hashrate (isn't 4X the average?)on X11 over scrypt. Thanks again PW

Thanks again PW Again, just like on Scrypt-N, its going to vary a ton depending on device. Some devices are going to get 6x, some at 2x, but I think the norm is around 4x. If memory serves me, I think X11 does better with higher clock speeds and less/lower mem speeds (CPU bound), compared to something like Scrypt-N which is heavily memory bound.

setting miner difficulty with d=0.032 works, I guess i didnt had it set power of 2 before.

Instead of adding ScryptN you guys should of added either X11/X13.
There are basically no coins to mine with ScryptN.
VTC goes down and down everyday and the other 2 coins have no liquidity.
Plus its summer and VTC uses too much heat.

Or you "could of" read a few posts above and avoided the facepalm...

You seem to be using "sgminer 5.0", which I couldn't get to work either. Seems a bit rushed and not production quality to say the least. I'd suggest to try this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=623409.0You'll need to use kernel "x11mod", and "pool-" options are not available in this version. Otherwise it worked fine as a drop-in replacement for all sorts of old miners on BAMT and Windows.

Just compiled the sph-sgminer-x11mod on my linux rigs and pointed a bunch of GPUs over to x11. Everything seems to be running smoothly here initially. Thanks a ton for doing this poolwaffle.
