Cool, interesting details about these other projects.


Games-on-a-blockchain are on a sliding scale of fake vs real.

If coins are sold to players so they can buy items or whatever in-game it's 100% fake.

If Blizzard would have WoW gold as cryptocurrency but the accounts with PCs and gear belong to Blizzard (that can ban players)
it's 90%+ fake. (with characters and items being all fungible bitassets they could still change the game that is running on their
servers at will: 75% fake)

Speaking of bitasset, the early versions of Bitshares (if it were a game) looked like pretty close to the "real" end. Then something went wrong.


A second sliding scale is game vs cryptocurrency, how much value in percent of the crypto is, or can be, in-game.

Or we should find a professional who likes the game enough to buy some and market Huntercoin for free.

By the way, now that we have a first batch of Huntercoin articles coming out, we're focusing on growing our social media presence. The best way to help right now would be by joining and referring those who might be interested to this Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/467303256806059/

The windows version of Huntercoin 1.3.01 linked in OP comes with Qt 4.8.5 dlls, so I assume all qt client variants can be built
using the original guide from bitcointalk.

Which is now difficult to find if not already knowing an exact line, like "4. Setup Qt 4.8.5 and compile Bitcoin-qt" to help google a bit.


It would be interesting if someone manages to build with Qt 4.8.6, or a newer boost version than 1_54_0 on windows.

Considering that the price of DOGE has gone up quite a bit since that post, a more reasonable change would be to around 100 DOGE for 12 HUC, but that's fine. No need to escrow, just PM your DOGE address, I'll send coins and then reply with my HUC address...if you want.

If u went to 160 doge i would do it...

How can we escrow??

hi armando, agree those with loads of coins should donate some to the dev fund..

there have been a lot of changes though and more to come

if anyone wants to test the better-qt by wiggi, they can take a look here for the windows version - he's already compiled but here is my compiled version

graphics are much better but may suffer from some performance issues
odd little bugs but would be good to get peoples feedback.

(this doesn't include the extra features he has been experimenting with atm)

It's a shame if such great idea will be forgotten. I've not visited this thread for a looong time and seems that almost nothing changed((

I believe that here are some people with a lot of coins, why not hire some professionals to reborn the game? Everyone holding the coins will win if new players will come!

This article is a comprehensive explanation of the history behind and current state of Huntercoin. It will fill you in if you don't have time to read through the mass of posts in the Huntercoin thread. You can trust it to be correct and not outdated for the near future.

Update for
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13478921
It's an in-game auction (gems <-> coins) and price feed system (HUC in USD), in need of some testers (on testnet).


For Windows, with up-to-date testnet gamestate for the experimental version.

uncomment "#define PERMANENT_LUGGAGE" to get the experimental version.

Nodes can switch between safe mode and experimental version (exit, rename executable and gamestate.dat, continue).


To use:

- Start client, wait until blockchain download is finished, open game tab, click middle mouse button to start tx monitor.
  (2 files are updated for each new block: adventurers.txt and auction.txt)

- Set autoupdate without asking in Qt-creator: Tools | Options | Environment | when files are externally modified: reload all unchanged editors
  (Vim, or Notepad++ can do the same)

- If an action is possible (buy, sell, feed, or send coins), auction.txt will come up with an example line
  to be copied as chat message or console command.


Provisional rules:

If a hunter owns a "storage vault", i.e. is transferred to the vault address, they can post 1 (one) sell order. It will stay active when the player is offline and the price
is reduced by 1 tick every 100 blocks, until filled. (dutch auction)

To cancel: "GEM:HUC set ask 0 at 0", or just set it higher: "GEM:HUC set ask 1 at 1000000"

The "settlement price" will slowly move up or down, depending on the best ask price, and the game can later use this as estimated/collateral value.
It's not possible to place sell orders below the settlement price.

Every hunter can post a "fill or kill" buy order, which can fill against the current best ask.
For now, the client will refrain from sending coins all by itself but it would be trivial to do.

To get the feed reward (on testnet every 100 blocks, on mainnet this would be 10000), the feed price must be within +-5% of median feed from all players


Offline testing is also easy, with a setup like the testnet-in-a-box linked here
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13371058
just copy the official testnet blockchain to hunt1\testnet *and* to hunt2\testnet.

You think I do not know? Read carefully my posts and will not be too many questions!!!

Devs put a lot of work in for free and have always been responsive.

The problem with hanging units should be solved, I guarantee, dozens of new players and the interest of hundreds of traders! This coin will live and she deserves to live! But there are some problems that the developer does not put in the foreground !!! As it is not unfortunate, but it's a fact!

Dev hear me, I beg you!

I've heard it works better on other operating systems besides Windows. Unfortunately, I don't know Linux, yet 

Yes, I am completely aware of this - and agree. I am hoping that the update to Huntercore with the smaller blockchain will resolve the hang-ups that have been there since day 1. If this happens, things change a lot. Originally, the issues were blamed on the fact that the game was very hard drive intensive, and an SSD was recommended. I have an SSD and the blockchain download still hangs on the current version.

Well, I have something like this and all the imagined! What is happening with this coin discussing those who do not have a clue about this coin !!! So I can tell you that before the discussion about ety coin you sit down and play it At least for a while, and then he'll say something!

Personally, my opinion, the bots in this game is not a hindrance, but even the very opposite! With bots much more interesting!

The main problem of this coin, it stops loading the blocks! The problem has always been there in the first place! Even the size of blockchain not so terrible as a stop block download!

I'll give you 120 DOGE, since one HUC is worth about 10x as much as a single DOGE. Swapping for BTC is ridiculous since the amount of BTC you'd spend on the tx fee is more than 12 HUC is worth.

Does anyone want to buy my huntercoins???

i have approx 12 full coins?? Any offers for swap to BTC??

The problem is that all development/marketing funds are in HUC, so it's more difficult to get anything done without HUC going up, first. In the interim period before a noob-friendly wallet is available, I have been instructing friends to hold coins on Poloniex since their coins aren't worth that much, anyways (risk is relatively small).

The current marketing focus is on hyping what is to come, then announcing the Huntercore update once released. I'm actually now ready to start releasing articles, but I want to buy more coins with my 1st-of-the-month paycheck, first.

Don't send any BTC, deal if off as far as I'm concerned. With it goes off any sort of my support for HUC so now you can debate stupid irrelevant shits here, dump to a new all-time low, I don't care.

How many of you (who leads this discussion) tried to play this game? There are such?We do not just download Start run and closed. A full game a week or more!
