[Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners

[tf2addict]

Patrike,

Can you explain how the exponential factor works for coins?   How do you know what the factor for any particular coin should be?

Hi

PLS add nicehashe new algo GrinCuckaroo29 GrinCuckatoo31 Lyra2REv3

https://www.nicehash.com/algorithm

Thanks

[patrike]

Hey Patrike,

can you please check and integrate the new SgMiner for ZCoin? https://github.com/zcoinofficial/sgminer/releases

Tried it by myself with a user defined miner. Even with the same settings as i wrote in the .bat file, it runs extremely slow trough AM (getting only 10% hashrate as in the .bat).

Here is the .bat which is fully working, maybe it helps you a little bit:
sgminer.exe --kernel mtp_vega  -o stratum+tcp://xzc.2miners.com:8080 -u blabla -p x --intensity 18 --text-only --device 0,1,2

Did you use the Diagnostics feature in Awesome Miner to compare the command line, to ensure that it was identical, including the "--intensity 18" parameter that looks quite important here? You can share the exact command line via PM if needed.

Clones of existing mining software with support for a single algorithm has typically lower priority for being included in Awesome Miner, as they typically can be added manually like you did.

[patrike]

New Cryptodredge 0.16.2

https://github.com/technobyl/CryptoDredge/releases/tag/v0.16.2

New T-Rex too

And gminer 1.28

Thanks. There are a number of mining software updates in the pipeline and the plan is to have a new Awesome Miner release tomorrow including:
  - CcMiner 2.3.1
  - Gminer 1.28
  - CryptoDredge 0.16.2
  - TeamRedMiner 0.3.10
  - T-Rex 0.9.2
  - TT-miner 2.1.8

Hi Patrike,

small suggestion. If you hover your mouse at the bottom of AM over the little coin symbols, would be nice if you can also show the exchange which provides that price right now. Sometimes you see a nice price, but you don't know which exchange got that price 

Good point! Maybe a right click menu where you can go to the coin on the Coins tab? I'm also planning to show the exchange name on the Coins tab when running it in compact list mode.

[patrike]

Patrike,

Can you explain how the exponential factor works for coins?   How do you know what the factor for any particular coin should be?

When you calculate the number of coins per day for a given hashrate, there are many parameters taken into consideration like difficulty, block reward and also this exponential factor. It's simply a number that is unique for each coin, although the value is 32 for most algorithms and the value 0 is also common.

I don't know the number for each coin, but for all popular algorithms I enter predefined values in Awesome Miner based on my findings when I try the calculations on WhatToMine, CoinCalculators and so on.

If you add a new coin in Awesome Miner, the default value will be 32. In case the calculations are wrong due to another exp. factor is required - you can play around with this factor until the calculations show up correctly.

Thanks for your question.

Is it only Bminer that doesn't start or are no mining software starting? If you go to the folder below, do you see any bminer files or folders?

Yes, it is identical. The problem is AM always use a config-file. And whenever a config-file is loaded (seems no matter whats inside, maybe still buggy or whatever), the hashrate is increadible low. Without the config-file, so just with the command-line, its perfect. Is there any way to tell AM not using a config-file, but with full compatibility mode?

[trucobit]

I want to comment on a ruling that has already happened several times. I will give two examples.

I changed the exponential reward factor of ZERO equihash 192,7 and I put 5. The coin disappeared from my list of COINS. It is very easy to search, you are pressing Z and you are going through the different currencies, but this has disappeared from my list of coins.


Right now I just modified VEIL X16RT and I only added the price in SAtochis, since it uses a very rare exchange. I only added the price nothing more. And the currency has also disappeared from the COINS tab. I have searched several times but it is nowhere.

Although I put the price on satochis, and the coin disappeared, when I flipped the coin, it still gives me 0 of profit, because if I throw it to mine, even if I do not find it in coins.

I do not understand this problem, I just tell you what happens, to see if you can reproduce it.

I do not have selected exchanges neither in options nor in the options of the currency. I find this error very strange.

Sometimes coins are added or removed in the coin lists from the statistics providers. This can be for many reasons and often only temporary.

Awesome Miner has a setting to keep coins even if they no longer are included by the providers. Please see how "Keep coins no longer listed by provider" is configured in the Options dialog, Statistics Providers.

I know that reading them can cause coins to be lost for a few minutes. I talk to you about days, XGAC disappeared days ago. I have the option activated so that the coins that appear are not deleted. And I have not ignored them in options> coins.

All this I know, it's very basic. In other currencies I have changed the price and they have not disappeared, but these coins do not exist in my AW, they left.

I do not see ZERO, XGAC and the other of X16rt, some for changing the Exchange and others for changing the exponential value, or for the price. And it has only happened to me in these, as I have said in others it has not happened to me. I know this is very strange, I know, but I have to say it in case someone else happens the same.

theres a solo mining option on zergpool now can we get an option to specify m=solo in password field for it?

[kitenski]

Can anyone help with the apparent really poor performance I am seeing, as the screenshot shows?

Dell is a dual GPU system with nVidia 1060Ti and 1050, Garage has a single 1060Ti.

I'm running 6.1.10 of Awesome Miner, switching interval is set to 3 mins with a 15% switch threshold.

I have Enable Managed Profit Switching ticked with providers as Nicehash, Mining Pool Hub, AHashPool and Blazepool.

theres a solo mining option on zergpool now can we get an option to specify m=solo in password field for it?

Method 1:
Options -> Online Services -> Select 1 or multiple online services you want to modify and select Edit / Bulk Edit button accordingly

-> Password (optional) field....put m=solo

Method 2:
you are also mining specific coin and want to specify that in Options -> Pools instead

Edit Pool Properties -> Worker Password field:

Code:

mc=xxx,d=yyy,m=solo for example

is it 1060 Ti a typo?

else, 1060 + 1050 does about 40MH/s on Lyra2v2 is about right, I personally find CryptoDredge slightly faster, but you have to use the older version since 16.1 or above removes support for Lyra2v2 as it is now an ASIC dominated algo (means you shouldn't really be mining Lyra2v2 with GPUs at all)

Thanks for the details.

In this case I think the best way is to use the Device Profile concept (see the Options dialog, Device Profile section). You can define a profile with Intensity set to 18 for example. In your miner (or pool) you can then select this device profile. The result should be that the Intensity parameter is part of the configuration file.

Thanks for the report. I will take a look and keep an eye on this. For the coin Zero I know that Awesome Miner for a period of time incorrectly considered the short name to be ZERO when it should have been ZER. Since a while ago it should however show up correctly as ZER.

thanks patrike  . plz add wake up lan .

how i use cpu with percent ?

you can use Wake-on-LAN as a rule action.
