Hi JK hope all is well; I just compiled 2.5 with VS17 and CUDA 10.

Guys just so you know compiling this miner isn't really difficult. You will learn alot just by compiling it yourself. I did this and I have 0 coding or programming experience.

I used these as guides to compile. Anyways 2.5 is working but you will notice a slight drop in hash rate most likely due to the new algo. Make sure to update before 10/18!
Ahh, they finally released an update.... I've been waiting for this....

I have a separate machine on my main network now I can remote into and have a fresh start with installing VS and the toolkits; and it wont have bandwidth limits like I do at home.  Ill probably get on this soon.

Then the regular stripping of devfee addresses and setting value to 0.0 and compile.

I believe the original intent was Cuda 8.0, and i believe it produced the best hashrates... but i could be wrong.

Looks like I need to get on this tomorrow.  Ill be updating my personal miner with the official release for the short term.

Thanks for all the efforts. You said you comipled with CUDA, does the miner also work with AMD cards properly?
