I am not surprised the OP did a much better job than me with this 
What does surprise me is that the donation address is a 1x, I expected a Segwit address from such a sophisticated user. Or is it a case of his 1x address really being a Segwit or script of some kind, last year I remember researching you could translate a 3x to a 1x, but I cannot remember how
I am also not surprised I cannot compile out of the box on my VS 2017, all kinds of errors. What does surprise me though is that some code in there, perhaps from the Cuda Toolkit, even tells me "this code will only work in VS 2010.... 2017", so it does not recognize my VS version, WTF!
