Hi guys
What is the best/fastest gpu/amd miner software today
And is it profitable to mine x13, x11 etc this day ?

I can not let sgminer v5 /sgminer-5.0-badman74-mod-win32/! Please for assistance.
Bath file write the following text:

del *.bin
set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 2
sgminer.exe -k x11mod -o stratum+tcp://pool.xhash.net:3412 -u xxx -p xxx --shaders 2048 --thread-concurrency 8193 --intensity 18 --worksize 256 -g 4 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-reorder
pause

, but leave me and discarded. Where wrong!  Sad
Thank you.
not -k x11mod, use --algorithm darkcoin-mod

Do git clone --recursive https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer.git to get sgminer instead of downloading it the way you are, or use git submodule init and git submodule update before configuring
still not working Sad
still shows you dont have jasson... in mingw shell, goto your sgminer dir and enter git submodule update --init and see if it downloads it if not then there is a problem with git
i have to open a git shell separately (not the one i use for mingw) then use git submodule update --init, then go back to mingw and do the rest from autoreconf -fvi on

Thanks,

I got jansson installed now. Do version numbers matter here? i did the submodule update on sgminer folder, but now it doesn't find OpenCL after configure.

Gonna try to redo it.
not really... for some reason i cant get my fork of sgminer to show 5.0.0
only way i could do it as far as i have found would be to delete my repo and refork it then add my changes back

Duuuuuude. I know you probably brain farted here... but *facepaw*

Try grepping master of the official sgminer git for the version message. Do the same with with yours. Copy. Paste.
ehhh what's grepping?
the extent of my actual programming knowledge is computer basic learned about 25 years ago
i did add 5.0.0 tags and release to my fork but it didn't help
still a newbie at github controls

I cloned your master, compiled it, dumped the version, then searched for it. Only the object file and binary file matched, meaning that the version is not in the source - it's from git. You could always use --disable-git-version - I'm pretty sure that'll do it.

Wolf0 thanks  Wink I actually resolved the problem, scrolled to line 45 in events.c and fixed "bad" syntax. Up and running now, although hashrate on my 280x is not even close to your speeds. Good experience, anyways.

Oh, sorry. Grep is an extremely common *nix command used to search a file, or multiple files, for a string of text or text matching a regular expression.

I'm trying to build badman74 in Visual Studio C++ 2010. The goal is to have native x64 and x86 versions of sgminer. Following boring instruction, installed (hope so) all the dependencies and now I'm stuck at the final step. Solution won't build showing me error:

Code:
1>..\events.c(45): error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'void *' to 'const char *'
1>          Conversion from 'void*' to pointer to non-'void' requires an explicit cast



Has anyone tried winbuild in Visual Studio? And maybe encountered similar issue? Any help would be appreciated

Wolf0  how compile dll's?

I prefer to compile my versions without needing DLLs.

I'm using 14.9 - I think it has the OpenCL 2.0 beta, I should try that shit.

How does it work out for you?

Fine; looking through the OpenCL 2.0 specs for some good shit to use.
Be careful. Relevant.

On Win it usually points to driver issues, fixed by cleanup and re-install. On *nix.. maybe the same.

Hm, that's weird because it's the exact same issue on two machines. One machine i just used driver manager, and the other I just grabbed the latest beta, and latest stable right off the site. Even when I get the one card to work, the mining speed is crap - 3333 for x11, when it should be well over 4. Changing settings does nothing for the speed either.

I'll keep trying though, thanks.

Am i broke yet?
Has anyone been able to get x14 working on a HD6850 (or any of the HD6xxx series) in windows?
If so can you help me out?

Bump? I can only mine right now with my archaic 5670 cards. have not found a fix to get 6xxx series running. HALP!

X14 mining the 5670 works great @ 280kh using the version from nicehash and running this string.
sgminer.exe --algorithm x14old -o stratum+tcp://pool.ipominer.com:3337 -u username.workername -p password --intensity 14

Nicehash link to the miner:
https://www.nicehash.com/software/sgminer-5.0-badman74-mod-win32.zip

the 6850 does not hash.  if i use either x14 kernel setup and various versions of sgminer.
on one it defaults to scrypt and gets my worker banned
on the other it does nothing but hardware errors (1 every 90ish seconds)

I am running win7 64 bit with most current Ati drivers downloaded this morning.
