Re: HSRMINER Neoscrypt Fork by Justaminer - High Hashrate, API, all GPUs supported!

To begin with, hsrminer does have an API.

You mean ccminer had an API, but palgin disabled it by changing default port, removed all API-related cmdline options and changed api output format so no monitoring software can use it.

So please, dude - if you like to use crippled original hsrminer, feel free to do so, but don't spread misinformation.

It's not me spreading the misinformation.

1. Changing the port does not mean the API is disabled.

2. Not documenting the default port does not mean the API does not exist.

3. Removing command line options that adjust API behavior does not mean the API does not exist either.

4. Changing API output format does not mean monitoring software can't use it. That's utter bullcrap. It's not like miner API output has a standard. ccminer, dstm, ethminer, excavator, zecminer, ... - they ALL use different API output formats. The monitoring software needs to handle that. In fact, the ONLY difference between hsrminer's and ccminer's output is that you need to find the SPEED key instead of KHS for hashrate, and the POWER_CONSUMPTION key instead of POWER for power usage. The API call, the key separator, the value separator, the line separator, the terminating symbol, pretty much EVERYTHING else is the same. If your "monitoring software" can't figure this out, then it's your monitoring software that's crippled, not hsrminer. If you can't realize this on your own, then I sure as hell don't want YOU to touch any of my miner executables, because that's incompetency beyond repair.

5. You even sent me a private message that you "added" an API to your "fork". I already addressed that you can't "add" something that already exists. But now let's address the fork bullcrap too. Forking means you alter the code. But hsrminer's code is not published. I pointed this out in PM already, to which you responded you "reverse engineered it". Except reverse engineering means "patching" at best, not "forking". You just mess around in the binary and pretend you're some crazy genius, while in fact you just changed some existing parameters. Like "if I change intensity, hashrate increases :O". No shit. And so does stability decrease, but never mind that. And you changed the devfee address, of course.

All I see is you spreading CONSTANT fud because you're butthurt about hsrminer. But I have no idea how anyone here can take you seriously when you have so many factual errors all the time.

Has anyone noticed that PigeonCore uses 100% CPU of a single core? RavenCore uses only 1-3%. Any ideas?

Not talking about the miner here, talking about the wallet.



setgenerate false

setgenerates true by default Huh why would any one do that

Because lazy. My build disables CPU mining by default, along with other fixes:

https://github.com/gradinkov/pigeoncoin/releases/tag/0.15.99.0-gradinkov3

Submitted my patches long ago, no one gives any input on them, just ignore them.

Wow that makes me even more sure that they have no interest in developing coin, just pump n dump.  Otherwise, why wouldn't they want your fixes?

I don't know. They added the DNS seed fix on their own (like 1 day later), then released binaries. But they didn't publish the source code changes for it (the new release has the old sources attached to it), so I don't know what else changed Smiley But the CPU mining part sure did not.

I've built sgminer-x16s on Windows, it's completely untested because I don't have AMD hardware. Could anyone try it out and report back?

https://github.com/gradinkov/sgminer-x16s/releases/tag/gradinkov1

https://i.imgur.com/9I4g1qV.png

this is as far as i can achieve to get (with vega). had to move msvcr100.dll into the dir to get that far

edit: also note, your notes mention getting vc-x86, but using the x86 version of msvcr100.dll makes it fail, needed the x64 version : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13523
and the 2010 link supplied is a secure link (needs log in)

That doesn't make any sense, all DLLs and exes are 32 bit. Just inspected them all manually.

Anyhow, tried to build with older ADL SDK, you could give it  a go:

https://github.com/gradinkov/sgminer-x16s/releases/tag/gradinkov2

Note to self: apparently it works with -T flag meaning pdcurses is broken, should rebuild on my own sometime. Thanks Ellife!

how about GPU, RX470 can mine it?

Still no AMD miner Sad

Just posted a few comments above, READ guys, don't just write. But others reported it to be broken. You may still give it a try tho.

hi everyone my wallet is stuck at connecting to peers and it is not connecting, anybody has the same problem and how can i add nodes?
Thanks

Either Help / Debug window / Console, then:

Code:
addnode seed.pigeoncoin.cc:6969 add

or download the wallet that has this built-in:

No binaries yet.

I'm a miner for about 3 years, and I'm nvidia fan too, just saying that this is not fair launch and this is not decentralization, but centralization of power, because they don't give a equal chance for all miners amd and nvidia to equally mine and chosing what they will do with their coins/profit.

? the chance has been given. Is it the Pigeon devs' fault if noone comes up with an AMD miner? The algo is there for anyone to implement. Or should NV miner devs wait until AMD devs get their act together? Or... ?

It isn't fair play, again and again there appears new great projects and algos, but only for nvidia, so what amd miner to do, to burn cards?! It isn't fair launch from the start, because it centralized by nvidia gpu's, like 90 % other coins and algos.
So about what decentralization we talk??

AMD GPUs have always (=last 10 years) been sub-par, but the fanboys refused to realize this because they thought a GPU that's great on ONE algo (eth) is a better choice than a GPU that's great on EVERYTHING EXCEPT THAT ONE algo.

So after making bad decisions, please, by my guest, to cry me a river.

suprminer doesnt work, it atomatically closes... any ideas?

That happened to me. After inserting a "pause" command after the batch file, I found out I needed to install Cuda 9.1. After installing it, suprminer worked smoothly.

No you don't need to install CUDA 9.1, only a current NV driver.

How to set intensity per gpu cards? because I have different nvidia cards in rig, 1070 and 1060

Run 2 instances, e.g.

Code:
ccminer -d 0 -i 19
ccminer -d 1 -i 21

No need for 2 instances, I run under the same using -d 0,1 -i 19,21   and it works fine.

I can't connect to wallet, I have it open for like 50 minutes and no network...

My bad, thanks for the correction!

For wallet sync issues, put this into appdata\roaming\pigeon\pigeon.conf:

Code:
addnode=131.215.166.149
addnode=135.19.75.147
addnode=159.203.91.35
addnode=159.65.100.176:8757
addnode=165.227.200.154
addnode=165.227.203.111:8757
addnode=167.99.144.206
addnode=188.165.244.7
