Shouldn't there be update for wallet right about now ?

You missed it

Phase 1 of the wallet update is complete!

This update is not mandatory but highly recommended.....

The following points have been adressed in this update:

phase 1: Checkpoints, stake modifiers and splash build error.

Increased version to 1.0.1.0 and updated minimum protocol version


I have tested this new build and it communicates with the old chain, you can send UTC from and to an un-updated wallet.




Once you delete everything except the wallet.dat file from the ultracoin folder, start the new client,the new client then updates the chain and the wallet

Step 1 : Type %appdata% in the windows search box (you see it when you click the start button)

Step 2 : Find the ultracoin folder

Step 3 : Copy the wallet.dat into a backup folder, do NOT delete or cut it!

Step 4 : Delete everything in the appdata/ultracoin, but DO NOT DELETE THE WALLET.DAT

Step 5 : Download this file http://www.speedyshare.com/SdmKg/ultracoin-1.0.1.0-windows-qt.rar

Step 6 : Extract the folder from the download somewhere,now drag the Ultracoin-qt.exe from the new download into your normal wallet folder (not into the  
            appdata/ultracoin folder but your wallet folder)

Step 7 : Click yes when it asks do you want to replace the file.

Step 8 : Start the wallet,it will now download the entire blockchain again (this will take some time).

DONE.


@Bumface a question...

Is it also possible or is it more easy to do it like this :

> 1: make a backup of the Ultracoin wallet.dat file that is in use a the moment

> 2: then after making the backup delete the whole (old) wallet from the computer

> 3: then donwnload the new wallet V 1.0.1.0

> 4: start the new wallet and let it download the whole blockchain

> 5: download in the new wallet the wallet.dat backup

Or is this stupid what I think  now Huh
