I tried this on a 2nd system of mine and it just crashes, but a previous build that I did earlier did seem to work. The only difference I'm aware of is this build was done with both "--enable-scrypt --enable-opencl" versus my first build that just had --enable-scrypt, and this one was stripped using "strip vertminer.exe".
Are you interested in doing the support for this new version i have not released yet (still in test)?
Regarding compiling: just use autogen.sh, it will do the job (autoreconf, configure, build and strip alltogether).
@All: this new version now supports mining nfactor scrypt and normal scrypt
vertminer.exe --scrypt ..... --> mine normal scrypt coins
vertminer.exe --
nscrypt .... --> mine nfactor scrypt coins (e.g. vertcoin)
But as always: you can use your known cgminer .conf for mining normal scrypt coins BUT THIS WILL NOT WORK WITH VERTCOIN (the other way is fine -> use vertcoin config for normal scrypt coins).
For vertcoin, you have to use other (vertcoin, e.g. TC) settings and i am still playing around with something so this version is ALPHA and USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
