i have no idea if im running this correctly lol. I can get the miner running and i guess i put my wallet id in the adress text file, what else do i need to do?

Quickstart(for windows):
Sync your clock. Go to set date/time -> Internet time, and manually make it sync.
Java must be installed and runnable from the command line.
Put a long password in passphrases.txt
Run run_dump_address.bat
Copy the long number generated after your password from address.txt
Now you can run run_generate.bat like this "run_generate.bat <number retrieved in last step> <plot number you want to start with> <number of plots you want to generate> 8191 <number of threads>
The number of plots should be a multiple of 8191.
This will generate plots with nonces from <starting plot num> up to <starting plot + number of plots>. Don't make overlapping ranges.
When your client is running and synced, run run_mine.bat to start mining.
You can mine while still generating plots. The miner will throw some read errors, but you can ignore them.
Use the password from the passphrase before to access your coins in the wallet.

Also, please post your HW setup.

Too confusing for my setup currently it seems, as by using the same wallet address + not having my nonce all different on different systems I've effectively been mining with one 1TB HD instead of the 4+ that are now 100% full and have not hit a single block in over 5 days + issues from Java randomly rebuilding the plots and stressing the CPU and drives when there are better CPU coins available to mine with no effort.
I'll check back later when a better mining program is available or pools that can show my effective rate and coin income.

Ive sent you 1 coin

[Sglasio]

tell me pls. i run generate with
java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate my_account_id 1048576  1348576 1000 4

But i see in window
Writing from nonce 1493576
Generating from nonce: 1494576

wtf? O.o

All OK. You generate all the way from 1048576 to (1048576 + 1348576) with this command

[Sglasio]

hm... i think before, start plots - end plots...
from 1048576  to 1348576

great community!

the difficulty increases....... when a mining pool?

Trying to get one up today.

Dev, mind adding a link to the OP to my review of BURST? Maybe create a news section?

in generate, what more important? gpu threads or ram in xmx (i mean java -Xmx2000m)

with -Xmx2000m you just set the upper Limit. If you dont get any errors this limit is set high enough.

The more CPU threads you use the faster you can generate the plot files. But no matter how many threads you use - you end up with the same file.

Higher stagger sizes (=more memory usage) produce "better" plot files. They are faster to read, use less disk seeks.If you have the RAM, go for 8191.

For the pool, will everyone have to generate different nonces for the same public address, or will every person get a unique address to generate plots for?

What mean "If you have the RAM" ?
Yes, i have RAM ))) 8 Gb
If i try 8191 generate windows just blink (open-close immidiatly)

Put a "pause" statement in your batch file, so you can see any errors that pop up.

Unique address

Will the current miner be used or a new one specifically for pool mining? Is there going to be a requirement to register for the pool?

A modified pocminer is needed. Current setup has you enter your payout address into a textbox, and submit, and it kicks out a generate address to use, and no other registration needed.
