HOW TO GET GUIMINER-SCRYPT WORKING WITH ULTRACOIN FOR BOTH POOL AND SOLO MINING!
This is not a scam or a fake launch, i'm solo mining with 0 issues & using a reconfigured GUIMiner to boot.
Took all of 15 minutes to figure out what the devs forgot to inform you all of.

FIX YOUR PORT NUMBERS IN YOUR CONFIGS IF YOUR NOT POOL MINING!!
ADD THE PROPER SCRYPT-JANE FLAGS LISTED BELOW INTO!!!!

Wallet works fine, Mining is going fine.

Look, if you're having a big issue with getting CGMiner to work, try this.

1: Download this version of GUIminer-Scrypt - https://mega.co.nz/#!Vg9i0DKK!FIduoitTjVyQ7w-jw7RJfSFaIS5so1XAuJOcw4DPJjE
2: Download the alternative working cgminer-scrypt-jane version here - https://sites.google.com/site/rmdavidson/cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.02.zip?attredirects=0
3: Extract GUIMiner-Scrypt
4: Extract cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.02 folder into the GUIMiner-Scrypt folder
5: Delete the original "cgminer" folder in the GUIMiner-Scrypt directory
5: Rename the cgminer-3.7.2-sj-0.02 folder to "cgminer" (no quotes)
6: DONE

You now have a version of GUIMiner-Scrypt configured to mine Scrypt-Jane.
Enter in your pool information and the following flags

Quote
--scrypt-jane --sj-nfmin 4 --sj-nfmax 30 --sj-time 1387769316

For Solo Mining:
Close the Ultracoin wallet if you have it open

In your user/appdata/roaming/ultracoin directory make the file "Ultracoin.conf"
Edit it with notepad to read as such:
Quote

rpcuser=youusernamehere
rpcpassword=yourpasswordhere
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
daemon=1
server=1
listen=1
port=44100
rpcport=44101

Save the conf file & relaunch the wallet
Launch the GUIMiner you have configured for Scrypt-Jane

Enter in the appropriate information & port 44101

UPDATE:

My machine was mining fine on https://utc.pool.pm before the site started having issues.
Went onto solo mine using these exact instructions and have since, found a block.  Smiley
