No pool for this coin ?

if you have a "mechanical" hard drive, and you are on windows - the client will be very unresponsive while you download the chain... once the chain is downloaded it should be fine.
If it is still jerky, then your hard drive must be really bad, it's full, or is very fragmented.

One thing what has worked for me in testing (although is working fine for me atm, on windows + a ubuntu vm at the same time)
is using Defraggler:

download defraggler
stop huntercoin client
right click the datadir (c:\users\\appdata\roaming\huntercoin) and choose defraggler (to defrag that folder)

when done, restart client.

Hi guys, plz a little donation I want to play HP1eUR3ydzFdQRbGziH6wEqfM2tkzsAWHB 

I asked for the official give away but received nothing

i mean can we just press one time and he auto quee all the movement?

I can not post in the forum for the giveaway, I do wrong?

time to admit, despite forks & bugs & slowdowns, it was quite addictive. nearly spent the day with this today 
still one or two soldiers to go home and I'll call it quit... for today 

if you have had tx pending for a long long time -- you can find the transaction with ? in your transaction list - and copy the transactionID. then click help, debug, console window and

type

deletetransaction

= the transaction id

then restart client

My guys have been stuck since last night.  I've quit and restarted the wallet several times.  Still stuck at pending

Just to follow up, I tried troubleshooting this by:

- Defrag disk, no issues there
- Complete reinstall of wallet (again) and re-sync on my best machine

No luck, still times out, unable to connect miners to it. The log is filled with:

ThreadRPCServer ReadHTTP timeout
ThreadRPCServer incorrect password attempt
ThreadRPCServer incorrect password attempt

messages. The password in my settings is correct, so there's something else going on, especially since just about 5 hours ago i was able to connect using the exact same .conf.

Also, just as a sidenote, it's a bit disconcerting that this this the IRC server I connect to:

irc.smutfairy.com

Not the best name to see when looking through the log.

more than 10 mn now, I think the "few blocks" have passed
Good thing I have Ubuntu + ssd, can't even imagine on windows 

yes,

although pending transactions should rebroadcast after a few blocks

it's stuck on pending for some minutes. If I quit / relaunch, will I still have all my little soldiers and their coins on the road home ?

Yes. Remember to check the RAMdisk options / settings carefully and think about what your doing and how this works etc.

Always save the RAMdisk after you close down Huntercoin and it's also probably best to back-up the entire ' wallet ' folder to preserve a copy of the chainstate and game logs etc. Again, make all back-up's to your HDD and not on the RAM drive.

I can agree that this has unfortunately not been the most perfect of coin launches.

Always remember that this is experimental software and should be treated as such and that the innovation here is still massive and very commendable.

Even as a fairly experienced user I have also seen all of the forking issues already described by most in this thread and it has been quite frustrating at times. I myself have only just got everything working well and managed to mine my first coins on the correct blockchain after starting this a fresh.

How to run Huntercoin on Windows in a RAM drive.

1 - Download and install AMD RAMDisk: http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/radeon-memory/Pages/ramdisk-overview.aspx

The 4 GB max. Freeware version can be found via a link in the text on this page: http://www.radeonmemory.com/software_downloads.php

N.B. You really need a min. of 8 GB of system RAM to create the maximum 4 GB RAM disk.

If you have say only 4 GB of (free) system RAM then create a 2 GB RAM disk. Less that 4 GB of system RAM is not really recommended for this.

2 - Create your AMD RAMDisk - I choose drive H - although make sure that you don't choose a drive letter that conflicts with an existing device such as a printer or other storage device etc.

3 - Copy the contents of the latest version of Huntercoin from the link in the OP to the new RAM drive and make sure its not in a folder.

4 - Create a new folder on the RAM drive and name it: wallet

5 - Copy (or create) your existing huntercoin.conf to the new wallet folder. N.B. This is basically your %APPDATA% folder.

6 - 2nd mouse button click on huntercoin-qt.exe and > Create shortcut (on the RAM drive)

7 - 2nd Mouse button click on the new Huntercoin-qt.exe - Shortcut and > Properties

8 - After Target: H:\huntercoin-qt.exe type: -datadir=.\wallet

So, Target: H:\huntercoin-qt.exe -datadir=.\wallet

and click > Apply > OK

This Shortcut will now run Huntercoin-qt.exe from the RAM drive and store your %APPDATA% in the folder named wallet.

This folder contains your wallet.dat - Back-up this wallet.dat to a drive location which is not on the RAM drive.

If you want to get a better idea of how this works see: https://bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin - Configuration File

...

This will run Huntercoin in RAM which in almost all cases is much much faster than running it from a HDD or even SSD.

Most issues with the syncing of the blockchain in Huntercoin are now only due to drive read / write speeds etc. As Snailbrain has already stated...

It was taking over a few hours to sync with the blockchain for myself - However, when I used the RAM drive method above and the latest addnodes I was fully synced to the full block chain and mining in 5 mins. You do not need to run the miner from the RAM disk.

Happy Hunting!

I definitely saved my wallet, but my coins are gone, I guessed I mined them all on a fork?
I had over 100 ingame and cashed them out, shame.

I can't even play anymore, a few coins to get some miners would be great... T__T

are the coins gained in game tied with the chain, because destroying my huntercoin folder even after saving my wallet, result in my coins being lost

ok nevermind they are here

i started a trading thread in marketplace feel free to trade there.
