I meant this!

excavator Release v1.2.5 alpha
https://github.com/nicehash/excavator/releases/tag/v1.2.5a

  • added hardware acceleration for Radeon RX 460/470/480/560/570/580
  • added daggerhashimoto (a.k.a. Ethash) OpenCL kernel for NiceHash
  • added algorithm details (pool stats)
  • added system details to info API
  • added optional HTTP API auth token
  • wrong OpenCL.dll fix attempt
  • improved OpenCL hardware management
  • added algorithm CUDA lbry

This is a big release with Ethash/daggerhashimoto, lbry, and hardware acceleration.
I will stay around for a while to answer questions and to post some tips and benchmarks.
Enjoy!

Well i'm trying to get this wo work on my rx480 but i get this error even after disabling drivers signature and running the miner in admin mode
