Amazing update!
Regarding the upgrade to this HD wallet, what's the procedure?
— Should we first create a new account via Key Management? Or just create a new address as usual and then somehow pair it with the account?
When you first load the new HD wallet it will create a new HD account for you and set it as default ... I.e. any new addresses generated will be from the default HD account (unique to you). However as this is pre-generated and not user friendly to remember I suggest you proceed to create a new account using a mnemonic sentence.
My suggestion for existing users is ...
** ALWAYS BACKUP WALLET.DAT FIRST **
STEP11. Save your wallet.dat and rename it.
2. Load the new Shadow 1.3.3.3 client
3. Create a new HD Wallet (Options --> Key Management --> New Key/Account) - give it a "name".
4. Goto Key Management --> Advanced Management and make sure that the new "name" account is showing as "default".
5. Create a new address
6. Send some funds to test (from your old wallet)
So now I would suggest you try a restore of this account to test it!
STEP21. Save your wallet.dat and rename it.
2. Load the Shadow Client
3. Goto (Options --> Key Management --> Restore) - complete steps
4. Goto Help --> Debug --> Console and type "scanforalltxns 590000"
5. You should see your test transaction show up.
If all works, you know you have the correct mnemonic and can then go back to your old wallet and send all your funds to the new wallet.
Your new HD wallet is setup and the mnemonic sentence + optional pass-code is all you need to access all new addresses.
After I did;
1. Save your wallet.dat and rename it.
2. Load the new Shadow 1.3.3.3 client
I opened the new wallet. On the left bottom it says; Shadow v1.3.2.4-1, where I expected to see 1.3.3.3
I downloaded the 1.3.3.3. wallet from
http://aboutshadow.com/ and extracted it to a new map.
Is this correct or did I do something wrong?
