Can you provide a link to a previous version wallet please. I can't get the latest one to work.

  Yep they all in the git under releases.  Will have an updated client as well soon too.

Ive just started staking my wallet again, its interesting that im getting so many coins stake in this wallet, yet i havnt even had it staking for a few weeks!

[tastefultemper979]

So something happening here? Where's the 111% stack?

Is silk doomed?

0.711btc has been send to 1Hf3UKtWxfGw7DYNq6778ozmhTPke5hVv6 in order from arteleis. These were the last btc Silk funds i had in escrow.

There is still around 89k SC available. Waiting for the address.

Lets get this down new wallet new ideas awesome coin. Need this coin to grow.

How long does it take to sync the wallet?
Ive been at 89.2% for a few days now, yet im still getting SILK coming in to my wallet left right and centre!

Cant wait till the upcoming hard fork, hopefully my wallet will be fully synced by then!

[BadAss.Sx]

I had the same problem....syncing is very sloooooooooooooow. Better start your wallet again and most of the time it goes further where it has stopped.

Ive done that but doesnt seem to make alot of difference.
If i download the blockchain in full from scratch will that make any difference?
Im now at 89.99% at long last only 10% to go! lol
Hopefully the upcoming hard fork will address this

[BadAss.Sx]

All of a sudden it goes quick, so i guess something is wrong at that point...i had it also at 87% or so

Updated wallet and sync fix, upgraded seed nodes, massive cleanup, orphan removal tool, client hardening, Multi language support, new graphix   pre fork client should be completed by tomorrow.  Client will sync from nothing in a few hours. 

  Apologize for the delay.

FYI, Trex is delisting SC on Dec. 15th.  I don't have time to sort through this thread at the moment so don't know if it's been noted or not.  I'm just trying to rescue some SC that are stranded there before I forget about them (again).

I'm trying to get a clean wallet synced and getting no connections. I've tried to find some addnode addies for the .conf, but can't seem to track anything down.  Maybe your new wallet will sort it out?

If you don't have a new wallet very soon that works, please publish some valid nodes on the OP?

Thanks.

The current wallet works fine for me.
v1.1.0.21-g32a928e
I suggest you download the latest version from github And a copy of the blockchain.
Backup your active wallet as (say) silkwallet.dat
Delete All Silk files and folders, if possible using Revo or another uninstaller that will remove all Registry components, or install on a machine that has not been used for Silk.
Run silk and close it.
Delete the blockchain files and folders (use the contents of the zip as a guide) and replace with contents of blockchain zip (don't just overwrite).
Let the wallet sync And Then replace the wallet.dat with a copy of your backup (rename your backup to wallet dat).
I don't use a conf file or addnodes. These should not be necessary. Just speculating, but they might even be counterproductive if they're out of date.
I assume you know how to find the appropriate files in their default locations.
Don't try to connect through a proxy such as Tor. This used to work and then it stopped working.
Best of luck.

I was using the latest tag from github, so I'll try the latest pull instead. That may just solve it.

I wasn't using a .conf until I lost patience waiting for connections. This is on a machine that had no silkcoin wallet before so no issues with old peers.dat or such. I did download that .zip of the chain from github too.

TY for the ideas. I'll tinker some more.

I've found through trial and error that a lot of wallet problems (for various coins) are resolved by clearing redundant registry items. This can't be done with a standard registry cleaner. You need a Uninstaller such as Revo or CClean which will search for registry traces and files left behind by previous versions. Revo works best for me.
Avoid wallet installers if at all possible, and install manually. If my suggestions work, pleas leave feedback so that others can adopt them if they encounter difficulties.
The blockchain zip was updated a while back when I asked for help with sync problems. But even so, it's a painfully slow business catching up. Run your wallet every few days to avoid it getting stuck. Let it run for a few hours, not just minutes, after it's synced.

shame about this , as part of the orig team i always believed in Silk and thought the coin def had stuff going for it over other alts

I would have taken this project on in a shot ... however with zero coding experience i would have burned , sales and marketing was my strength.

My wallet has finally synced!
Anyway, IDK if something is up, but ive had hundreds of transactions of new coins that have staked yet my balance has gone up very little.
I see under the transactions page that some have a question mark next to them and no tick, what does this mean exactly?
