Hello fellow hashers!
I'm running bfgminer 4.1.0 now on some miners that require bfgminer to be able to support extranonce and the #xnsub command.
I'm running them on nicehash for a friend who has a Zeus Lightning X6 farm.
I found out that 4.1.0 doesn't support extranonce algo so I looked for and found bfg 4.7.0 but it's all convoluted and not telling me how to set the command line to work correctly.
I tried using the bat file from 4.1.0 but alas, it just spits dummy!
Can anyone share a working bat file for 4.7.0 so I can get going with the latest version that supports extranonce.
I found 5.1.0 but there doesn't seem to be a version compiled for win32 nor does it say if it supports the extranonce algo required by the NiceHash/WestHash pool.
I can only run versions already compiled for win32.
Also....
Have they combined the ability to run Zeus and GridSeed 5 chips from the same program/gui yet?
Any help or useable advice would be greatly appreciated.

Download 5.1.0 -
http://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/bfgminer/5.1.0/bfgminer-5.1.0-win32.zip. You can always go to

It supports extranonce and can be used with Nicehash/Westhash. I suggest not to run Zues with Gridseed in same app. It won't go smoothly.
I Agree for Zeus miner they may run smooth with a Zeus miner mix on the same controller but they do seem more stable one miner per controller and PI's are not that Expensive or you can make your own controller i think a few have .
example why do you think bit main gives us a controller etc with S1 to S5 one reason may be they do run much better with one controller per miner and it is easier to just plug in a PSU etc and your up and running , it may take hours to get a few Zeus's to work to gather on one controller much less with grid seeds.
It is poss but can be a headache getting it setup and working Smooth. Done it .
for GUI try this
http://zoomhash.com/pages/raspberry-pi-software-update or Minera
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=596620.0 which works much better atm if you put your own custom BFG MINER in minera hes working on the Calculation problem with minera and some Script miners .
