Thanks Taek. Do we have a siafund wallet yet?
What hash rate do you guys get from a r9 290? And which settings?
870-880 Mh.
Code:
@echo off
setx GPU_DEVICE_ORDINAL ""
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
start sia-gpu-miner -d 0 -I 23
Is it okay if I don't do anything with the siafunds for now or is it necessary to make a new address and transfer them over? My siafunds are still in the original address I redeemed the sianotes with and I'd rather leave them there if possible.
Can someone please answer this ?
I'm also more inclined to keeping my siafunds untouched until there are safer/easier ways to transfer them.

I see that siac is back in the Sia folder...
When I run the following command in command line
siac miner status
I get the info for CPU mining.
I was wondering if there was another similar command for the GPU mining? I want to check and make sure my mining is actually registering/working as it should be.
Still haven't mined a block and I've been going at it pretty strong for a while (1-2 gigahashes/sec).

"siac miner" will tell you if you mined a block succesfully with both cpu and gpu.
in order to be sure mining is working correctly, you need to wait until you find a block.
with your hashrate, you could mine a block a day or less.
On another note, anyone know the best mining GPU to use for SIA? (if electricity is not a problem)
with an r9 290x you can reach 1.1 Gh/s with overclocking.
1.25 here!
How did you do it

Did you do any precalculations on cpu? I did some experiments and can't get anything good out of it.

I opened the new sia version and let it update. I then closed it and quit siad. Then I pasted the wallet folder from my desktop to my home folder and deleted the new wallet folder.
0.3.3.3 doesn't use the home folder anymore.
Upgrading instructions:
1. turn off siad. If you are really paranoid, reboot your computer to achieve this.
2. back up all wallets. make sure siad is not running when you back up your wallets
3. download 0.3.3.3 from github and put it in a new folder. do not run it yet
4. copy (or merge, both are fine) the most recent wallet into the wallet folder of 0.3.3.3 put it in the folder containing the executable, home folder will not work anymore
5. start running 0.3.3.3, never run 0.3.3.2 again.
There is a hard fork coming in the next few days, and everyone (especially miners) needs to upgrade.
If you do the backup wallets step correctly (back up wallets while siad is not running, and then do not upload/mine/host/make transactions until you have all of your coins again), then I can help you recover your coins if you mess up on another step.
Please follow these instructions carefully, and you will be able to upgrade without losing coins.
Sorry for the hassle, the upgrade process for 0.4.0 will be much simpler.

I made sure siad wasn't running and then I copied and backed up to my desktop the wallet folder from inside the sia folder (old version).
I opened the new sia version and let it update. I then closed it and quit siad. Then I pasted the wallet folder from my desktop to my home folder and deleted the new wallet folder. I opened the updated sia but it says I have 0 coins. What did I do wrong?

What I did is that after running the new version for a little bit, I replaced the wallet.dat with the old wallet.dat in both client folder and home folder. I also replaced the database (I think it is called chain.xx in the client folder) with the old one. Then I restarted the client. As soon as the blockchain was updated I saw my coins showed up.
Is it okay if I don't do anything with the siafunds for now or is it necessary to make a new address and transfer them over? My siafunds are still in the original address I redeemed the sianotes with and I'd rather leave them there if possible.
Edit: I also just tried to update to 0.3.3.3 and I think I may have lost my coins but I'm hoping it's the same problem I had as last time.

Any bites yet? lol the network hash for the last 25 blocks swings around like crazy going + or - 100-200ghs per 1 block added.
I wonder if this is normal since the value it is reporting is for the last 25 blocks (it's an average of 25 blocks!).. wouldn't that mean that in order for you to get a swing of 100-200gh/s the network would have to actually have increased/decreased tremendously within the time span of mining a single block?

Block mining variance is very high, which is why we removed the '10 blocks' value. 10 blocks thrashed so much that it was almost worthless as a metric. 25 blocks suffers from much of the same issue, and the apparent hashrate could change significantly even if the actual hashrate is not moving around very much.
100-200ghs seems a little much to me, my guess is that the hashrate actually IS adjusting a lot right now (some farm is probably moving power on and off as it suits them - perhaps they are mining multiple coins at the same time and keep switching which one they mine based on profitability). 100 blocks is a much better approximation of the current hashrate. I think it's safe to say the network has jumped to at least 400 GH/s.
Network Hashrate goes UP rapidly 
No kidding.

Is that realistic? Or am I interpreting this wrong? (I know I very well could be).
P.S. It would be really nice if someone could compile the latest gpu miner for windows 64bit/zip it and post it for us windows people please
