Is there a Linux version or source code I can try?
Actually this fork was done on Linux, I did windows build at the last moment. But the copyright is transferred to Vorksholk, he is the kernel owner.

Can anyone advise how to mine with cgminer please?
Is that a SHA256 or scrypt?
How should the bat file look like for this coin please?

it is not SHA-256 or Scrypt it is Blake-256 and cgminer is not ported to it yet
PM Vorksholk if you want to help test the OpenCL miner software Reaper_Blakecoin_Beta
the reaper can find blocks?

I can't get the miner to work. I'm getting a 0xc000007b error, unable to start. I set up the blakecoin.conf and reaper.conf with the proper user, pass and rpc port.
Try to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) I have Visual C++ 2012 Redist (x64) install already. Does the miner only work with the 32-bit version?

Mining beta is going good, people are reporting >5GH/s with a 7990, ~2.1-2.6GH/s with a 7970, similar numbers for 7950s. 
PM me if you want to help test the beta.

Made test run of Reaper, digged through wallet code and git history, found nothing wrong. Must be my imagination...
I will double check anyways, thanks for your work in getting reaper ported to Blakecoin looks like it is working well

the difficulty was correct in code and on network but the difficulty that was being show was incorrect out by a factor of 256 I will check the wallet code just to make sure, the wallet bnProofOfWorkLimit is 2^24 compared with bitcoins 2^32 this might be an issue for the calculation?
Reaper gets target value via "getwork" RPC call, that is the only codepath I worry about. I remember the first target, printed by Reaper and the second one, printed by my debug code, being different. That may be an error in my own code or memory I'll give it a test run again when I'll have time. If reported difficulty will be greater than real one Reaper will filter out valid blocks
so it's worth checking.wallet has getwork and a lightweight getwork2 this might be the issue
I will definitely look into it and fix it for 0.8.7 thanks for reporting

yes the difficulty was displaying incorrectly it was difficulty/256 it should be fixed now
I've seen two very different targets reported by Blakecoin wallet during reaper debug. (Or think I've seen, didn't made logs, unfortunately ) Visually these values differed by 256 factor, extra "00" in hexadecimal representation. I've turned off target checking and made reaper to submit all the shares, just to be sure that no block will be lost. Well, downside of this decision is high stale shares count on the screen and I can live with that.Could you re-check difficulty calculations in the wallet code, may be some old code wasn't upgraded?
