Hi Patrick,
1: Great thanks! sometimes the simple to implement features do make a difference.
2: I missed the options within the properties of the Profit Profile for each algorithm, I see it now and would agree that this is sufficient.
3: A rules based solution would also be viable, either way as long as there are rules or options for a miner/profit profile/group to idle or mine based on profit information from WhattoMine or CoinWarz then I think that this will increase the value proposition for the AM product and allow for an additional dimension of making profits.
New one:4: One of my pet peeves with AM is the options screen fixed size. I see that you made the benchmarks screen where the screen size could be adjusted with the mouse. Would it be possible to do the same with the options screen and also add if you double click on the header/title panel of that screen it expands to fill the available space on a monitor?
I am one of those snobs that has AM setup in my lounge PC with 300% display scaling on my monitor. The options screen is cut-off from the bottom so I cant click "OK" without lowering the display scaling specifically for AM before putting it back to 300%. I understand that this is an edge case but maybe there are others that has AM setup with non standard display scaling on their monitor.
Thanks for taking the time!
Hello Patrick,
I've been using AM for several months and have been loving it. Even though I am really enjoying using it there are a couple of thoughts that you might be able to assist with:
1: In Profit Profile - Customize (where all the algos are listed) can a select/un-select all button be added? When i'm testing overclocking and command line parameters for one algo its a pain to manually one by one select and un-select all but one.
2. There was a suggestion earlier in the thread related to the new fastest miner per algo benchmarking feature where it was suggested that there is a "column in which we can click (select) the miner we use as default for each algorithm once the benchmarks have been made"
Currently the UI around doing this within Options - Managed Software isn't ideal so creating this change will vastly improve the ease in setting the default miner for a selected algo per profit profile (I personally get quite confused in the Options - Managed Software - Defaults part of AM).
3: Given that mining has been less profitable of late with the drop on value of Crypto would it be possible to add the ability per profit profile or miner where if the profit per day for my miner/profit profile is less than X amount AM will tell the miner to stop mining (PC on but idle), then when the profit per day is above X amount to resume mining again? This way we can get the best "profit" between mining and electrical cost savings.
Thanks for taking your time to read this, I have spent alot of time optimizing my miners with custom settings per algo per miner with the relevant power information to get very accurate profit information and the feedback comes after days of playing around with this :>
1) I will add buttons for select all/none in the next release
2) The current behavior could possible be improved, but let's discuss this with a specific example. You check and benchmark Ccminer and Ccminer-KlausT with X11, and they get 8MH/s and 5MH/s. If you click Save, Awesome Miner will simply look at which software was fastest on X11, and it will store "Ccminer" as the mining software and 8MH/s as the hashrate for X11 in the benchmarked profile. If you open the Properties of this Profit Profile, this should be possible to verify.
If you instead uncheck Ccminer X11 after the benchmark and click save, Awesome Miner will save Ccminer-KlausT with 5MH/s to the Profit Profile.
If you manually want to select between Ccminer and Ccminer-KlaustT, this can be configured directly in the Properties of the Profit Profile for each algorithm.
3) I've been thinking of adding rule triggers based on Revenue and Profit. I think that would be a flexible way that would allow you to define what to do (for example Stop Miner) if the profit goes below 0 for example.
Thanks!
