Fair enough, can I suggest you put that information near the link on the first page. I'm sure many people will think that it works at least (that is my definition of experimental) but is buggy or crashes, not that it is completely non-functional.

Can you also provide a link or information to the intended implementation specification of the BMW-256 algo? I might be able to have a crack at it when I get a some time.

Here you can find a very good explanation of the bmw hash algo.
And  yes, it is from 2010. This algo exists isn´t really new.

are the guy behind that coin: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-octane-blake2s-headers-1st-nodes-open-assets-xor2-lets-1100713 ?

btw still no change regarding the richest wallets not giving their 33% to the masternodes on the coin they stake...

I had that feeling too but the small wallet bugs from this coin are not present in octane i think it is more like an octane fork by someone else with bmw algo

Or is this Bananabits fork with different algo
This is not a fork of bananabits.  It was forked from latest Blackcoin and then modified.
so why were there any reference to bananabits found in the code (see the previous thread...) ?
please dev, don't take us for idiot... nobody care from where you forked your coin, but at least be honest with it.

The 1 click masternode code I grabbed from bananabits and manually integrated it.

It works good.

Only I do not understand. This option tpruvolt spuminer-multi-v1.1-git
But why is it so falls on the other hash algorithms against m1.09

Ahhh, well that explains it. I think it might be out of my league but might take a look.

Not sure why they put it up if its not working. Huh
I put it up because it gets us 90% of the way there, so that there is miner code with the algo switch already integrated and all someone has to do is tweak the midnight.cl kernel file to get it properly hashing with OpenCL on the gpu's, which doesn't require recompiling the executable, so someone can take it and work with it by modifying the .cl file and re-running the miner.  I have been trying to adapt it to bmw-256 but have not been able to get it to work myself yet.

You are 100% correct to warn people and I would have done the same thing. I had trouble finding a windows version so this worked for me.

I am still having issues with sgminer tho, it informs me its mining but when I check the pool it appears no results are coming through

Here is my command:

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
sgminer.exe --algorithm midnight -o stratum+tcp://mdt.suprnova.cc:5146 -u Maxus.user2 -p ******
pause

Any ideas why it isn't showing up in the pool? I'm using a AMD R9 380

If you are trying to use the miner the developer put up, it gives nothing but errors. The problem is that it is trying to hash BMW 512 instead of BMW 256. Or something like that. I have absolutely no idea who to code. I looked at the midnight.cl file to see if I could make sense out of it. But of course, it might as well be written in mayan hieroglyphics to me. Cheesy

Hi Djm34

That is fair, I have no way of really proving otherwise. I guess its up to people if they want to take the risk. I'm no genius C++ programmer I'm more of an business application developer. So this might not be perfect but it works for me.

no offense, just that I lost recently 9k vtc from my wallet on my computer, so I prefer to warn because that kind of things do really happens from time to time

For others who want to compile it themselves using Visual Studio 2013 without MingW:

do a

Code:
git clone https://github.com/ocminer/cpuminer-bmw

Then open the "cpuminer.sln" file.

Make the following changes:

in compat/cpuminer-config.h

Code:
/* Define to 1 if you have  and it should be used (not on Ultrix). */
/* #undef HAVE_ALLOCA_H */

changed to (uncommented it):

Code:
/* Define to 1 if you have  and it should be used (not on Ultrix). */
#undef HAVE_ALLOCA_H


In /miner.h

Find this line:

Code:
#undef USE_ASM  /* to fix */

and add this below it:

Code:
#undef HAVE_ALLOCA_H
#undef HAVE_SYSLOG_H

and finally make sure you build for x64 as the curl libraries are 64 bit from what I understand.

Not sure if this was already posted but here is a window 64 build of the miner:

http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=62537288457890782834

You will need the visual studio 2013 c++ run time from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=40784

I've had it running all night and seems to be good:

cpuminer -a qubit -o stratum+tcp://mdt.suprnova.cc:5146 -u username.worker -p password
would refrain from downloading anything from a noobie account... unless you really want to mine for him...
(well OP is also a noobie account  Grin)
