Carbonshark pool is down. I like it but seems the guy who runs it is not interested anymore.How to solo mine AIR? Never did it.
Normally I have config.conf file for every coin that I mine, so I just rename configDoge.conf -> config.conf and double click cgminer.exe and it would mine Doge and so on
for all coins that I have, but I never solomined. Anyone cares how to do it?
P.S. I looked at 1st page of this coin and created in roaming/Aircoin folder file with name aircoin.conf and put there what is on 1st page (with my name and password), then I am stumbled as I don't know what it means to start cgminer with --scrypt ....
(If Carbonshark comes back to life I would gladly join back again with my ATI R290)

Thank you.

These are the conf and bat files I used to solo mine hope this helps

AIRcoin.conf

listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=put-your-user-name-here
rpcpassword=put-your-password-here
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=localhost
rpcconnect=localhost
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcconnect=192.168.1.*
rpcallowip=10.0.0.*
rpcconnect=10.0.0.*
rpcport=1630
port=1631
gen=0
testnet=0
addnode=107.170.20.200
addnode=188.226.182.21

Note: you can delete the extra rpc allow and connects I was using them to have multiple computer mine the same wallet.

------------------------------------

This the bat file I used to start the solo mining
AIRsolo.bat

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
c:\cgminer\cgminer --scrypt -o http://127.0.0.1:1630 --gpu-engine 1085 --gpu-memclock 1250 -u put-your-user-name-here -p put-your-password-here  --thread-concurrency 8000 -I 18 -g 1 -w 256 -s 5 -E 25

Note: These are the settings that worked for my card they will be different for your card

[alexminer]

Thank you very much.
bat starts cgminer but says :
Pool 0 slow/down or URL or credentials invalid

[alexminer]

Strange, basically I copypasted both files, but when I doubleclick AIRSolo.bat, it
does start cgminer.exe and then happens what I described in previous reply.

Don't know what to think.

It may be as simple as that you have not started the wallet before you executed the bat file. if you started the bat file first it would say invalid or slow

[alexminer]

Thank you, as soon as I started wallet, everything works.

[alexminer]

Wallet is not syncing though(it does sync when I start it, but then it goes out of sync), will it find blocks?
Thank you.

[alexminer]

I have AIRcoin-v8.6.2_KGW wallet (It is on official Aircoin website) installed. When I start wallet it syncs, but as soon as new block is created wallet shows not synced. Does
anyone have this problem? I would like to solomine AIR but I don't know if it is possible to actually find any blocks while wallet is unsyced.

[tricass]

that problem has been around for a while now. it's usually okay. you can compare the block height of your wallet (the smaller of the two numbers) with say what air.carbonshark or block explorer is showing as the current block height. they should be the same or very close to each other.

http://air.pitythepool.com is still up and running, I have had one of my little Gridseeds running there for weeks now. 

[alexminer]

Thank you, just hoped in in pitythepool, so far looks good.
Again, thank you for your help.

Hello from the guy who runs it..My sincerest apologies, I had done an update to MPOS pool software that broke the outgoing mail sent from the pool server. After much searching, it seems that the directory locations have changed slightly. I have fixed the issue, and the outgoing mail is functioning fine now. pitythepool has an outstanding pool operator as well. I am still running air.carbonshark.com

[Sprite160]

www.diggerpool.com also has AIR. It is a NOMP based pool, and as such, you mine directly to your wallet or to your exchange wallet. The coins are paid out as soon as the block is confirmed by the blockchain. You do not need to register to use this pool.

[Sprite160]

I threw 90Mh/s at AIR just to see what happens..

[Juicemixer]

So that's you I see on carbonshark with that much hashrate. I'm liking the 20 seconds per block but it's going to be rough once you take that miner off.

[Sprite160]

I'm just trying to stress the server, and the wallet. Do you think
i should let it run for a while, or pull it off?


1 Hour should be enough on carbonshark. Lots of block though.

[Juicemixer]

Oh I'm all for letting run since I mine on the pool. Not sure how everyone else will feel though. Speaking of, do you think the devs know or even care that people still mine this coin?

[Sprite160]

I think the devs may have moved on. I'm sure one of the new coins that is being pumped and dumped was created by this "team"
