Godaddy is having issues right now but I think it should be up by tomorrow hopefully. I'll try to get it the process started tonight though since i have the domain and server already bought. I'll let you know when it's ready with the link

I just downloaded the Sprouts wallet source code to get an understanding of it. Let me see if I can fix the 1 billion error and increase it to, like, 40 billion. Also I will change it to be Sprouts Classic to be unique and independent from the failed HF wallet.

The 2 billion error may be an easy fix, but the problems come in when you try to re-compile since a lot of the libraries are old, and there is a bit of hacking to get them to match up to the old sprouts code.

If you go to "main.h" the lines to change to fix this are there, and they look like this:

/** No amount larger than this (in satoshi) is valid */
static const int64 MAX_MONEY = 2000000000 * COIN;
static const int64 MAX_MONEY_2 = 40000000000 * COIN;

The old line that sets the max to 2 billion is the the MAX_MONEY is what is causing the errors.
The second line fixes it to 40 billion. Of course, anywhere in the code that says "MAX_MONEY" will need to be replaced with "MAX_MONEY_2".

I stripped this from the sproutsHF's code. This is their fix, maybe an easier, but riskier fix, would be to simply change the value of MAX_MONEY to 40 billion. The effects of fixing it this way would be unknown.

Hi arcmetal,

Would you be able to re-compile the Sprouts Classic wallet to have it go MAX_MONEY to 100 billion? From your response you already have the experience in the compilation.

I would like to try, since a few months ago I was able to compile bitcoin for linux from source, but I have yet to try a windows compile. I did have plans to try and compile a version of sprouts. So I don't mind tinkering with this.

Although, I'll be on a beach AFK for the last two weeks of August, and I'm gearing up for that trip now. I may not get to seriously try anything until Sept, but sprouts has been running just fine for a few years, a couple more months may not make much difference.

I don't even know if the changes to the code you'd like to see will make for a soft fork or a hard fork.

Also, if there is mention of Sprouts in the code to amend it with Classic? Let me know.

This would require further study.

About a year ago I had written up directions on how to get this version of a sprouts wallet up and running on a windows PC. Here is that link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1798901.msg19720939#msg19720939

And here is the github post I found with the latest version of the sprouts code (I'm not sure of its exact version, but it may be: v0.1.2.2-gd0cbc83 )
https://github.com/gjhiggins/sprouts

He also lists instructions for compiling.
