1.3.1 Beta Test Client

https://sourceforge.net/projects/philosopherstone/files/PHS/BetaTestClients/

Need some feedback, so contact if you run into any problems! Also please test languages and QR

Notes:

ALWAYS BACK UP BEFORE USING ANY NEW CLIENT!

1.3.1 BETA will not work on legacy systems!

Backup wallet.dat every-time, and it's not a bad idea to also backup the philosopherstone folder with all files as well.
BETA clients are for experienced users only, and may contain bugs - although they have had some testing, please be careful!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.3.1 Pre-Release BETA
-=-=-=-=-
More optimizations
More localizations, new languages added
QR implemented
Patch more attack vectors
fix windows compile issues
multiple bug fixes, memory leak fix
getbalance, listunspent,timeoffest,keypoolrefill added/fixed
more removal of legacy code
copy transaction option in QT
and a bunch of other stuff
many legacy coin references
testing out some new images

Just downloaded it and extracted it. Nice new splash!!! Cool looking. But, it took about 5 mins to bring up the wallet, and an error occurred. Error stated "Philosopher-qt.exe has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you of a solution if available.". I then have to click the Close Program button which brings down the wallet immediately.

This coin has great potential!

Hope there will be some better promotion in the future. This coin needs a pro website.

I also like the second one. It's a perfect fit for our theme.

Also don't forget the one in your previous post that has the dark stones in the water. That one to me is the coolest.

Really intrigued by this coin and some of the ideas around it. I'd love to get involved.

I'm a graphic designer but also have experience with web development and social media. I designed, coded and built Project-Grey.com. More recently I've handled designed work for the Australian BTC exchange CoinJar.com.

What I think would be great for Philosopher Stones is some solid branding. It's an awesome idea and I can build a really strong image for it. Once we've got that I can setup a Facebook, a twitter for updates, a sub-reddit for organized community discussion.

Here's a few ideas I had in my head:

Keep up the awesome work!

I like these! The second one is referring to an alchemy book that is related to Newton if I'm correct?

Hey guys let me know if this helps??

Step 1: Open your wallet
Step 2: At the top you will see an option: Help
Step 3: Click Console tab. Then at bottom of that screen, type in help
Step 4: You will see a list of commands the program can receive for your wallet, near the bottom of the list, notice the walletpassphrase command syntax.
Step 5: where you typed in help, type in: walletpassphrase yourwalletpassword 9999999 true. yourwalletpassword is the encryped password you gave your wallet.
Step 6: Notice your wallet lock should now be unlocked (lower right corner). Also, I think the code now perform auto minting when the wallet is unlocked when you pass the true variable.
Step 7: When you want to lock your wallet, type in walletlock.

Please let me know if this helps. I also struggled for days trying to figure this out. I work with programmers every day and know how they think, they sometimes have a manual command line way to perform certain functions. I'm glad this version has the console command line configured in.

1.3.1 Info Update
(being tested for release in week or so) Grin

Also toying with command line arguments to adjust how often you generate stake (anti dust). and clearing up some other legacy issues.

Excellent, really good to see some innovative coding gong on with PHS.

Every POS coin I have had has ended up choking on it's own dust causing 100% CPU usage after just a few months with the only fix (at least that I'm aware of) being to send to a new wallet; with the side effects of both losing stake and paying fees in the process.

Yes My inbox has been full of this complaint since day one, it is resolved on test clients and is being tested for release in the 1.3.x line of updates.

I am curious to what your idea is for this? I was thinking of simply limiting the coins that go into the kernel based on weight and a set limit to prevent CPU exhaustion.

What were your ideas?

Tutorial for MINTING/STAKE etc...

The peercoin info is not very helpful
the part about rpc password and wallet password/encrytion unlock for minting etc... is VERY confusing
DON'T ask people to just leave coins in UN-encrypted wallet for minting...duh!

Where is the daemon file?
Is there one created somewhere I can't find one?
not in app data or downloaded qt file? Huh

Also NEW WALLET
Do I need to send my coins to the new wallet? Must I Pay tx fee just to use and get old coins to new wallet?
Can I just save my wallet.dat and then copy the old into the NEW wallet AFTER it loads AND syncs???

Wish I could LEARN more so I could help more..

OPINION
Who cares what the damn wallet looks like or the logo design when there are so many other vastly more important issues of FUNCTIONALITY
Harry fucking Potter has nothing to do with this coin. Don't fuck this coin with such an insult

leonardo Davinci Pythagoras Plato Lao Tzu Confusious Walter Russell even Van Morrison is great but no forking HP

I agree with you, I can't get the stuff working as well. I get the popup which wants me to enter my pass, but when I give my pass, the wallet won't be unlocked.
I watched the video by the guy who made it work for PPcoin and tried to do the same for PS.

here are my lines of code:

In the %appdata% > roaming > Philosopherstone I added a file called philosopherstone.conf

Code:

#philosophercoind.conf
# JSON-RPC options (for controlling a running ppcoind process)

#Server mode allows Qt to accept JSON-RPC commands
server=1

# You must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api
rpcuser=test
rpcpassword=test2

#The reserve balance field is the minimum amount of coins you want to have available and NOT put up as stake.
#The reason for this is that if you are generating proof of stake you cannot spend those coins for 520 blocks.
#reservebalance=0

In programfiles(386) > Philosopherstone-1.3.0-win32 I created mint.bat with this lines of code, there is no daemon-map:

Code:

@echo off
@echo Enter PPC password...
SET /P variable=Password :
philosophercoind walletpassphrase %variable% 9999999 true

Hope someone can give me a clue about what I'm doing wrong. That would be great.

Hello Team,

I would like to introduce myself and hopefully become a contributing member of the Philosopher Stone community.

I'm starting to perform some research on several Forums and will be compiling a list of Promoter's who can help to promote this coin (stone) when the time is appropriate.

I'm a Certified Test Engineer and work for one of the largest Industrial Companies in the world, so I understand the development process and how long it takes to get bugs fixed and to deploy the code for further testing.

If you need testing performed, let me know and I'll be glad to do this. Also, let me know when the time has come to start promoting. I will then reach out to promoters.

Great to see people getting involved creating logo's etc Cheesy

Really Nice.

As for PoS with locked wallet, I think this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnLvE_Vnojc tutorial (for PPcoin) is similar.
Should work fine, have not tried myself though.

Just to be safe: Back up wallet before trying this out!

If it does not work, let me know so I can delete this post.

I lold , a guide is in the works! And the new client will just work with the old wallet files, just backup before you run a new client.

Have to agree here, red gem red background stands out, and of course red is the property of life and the cross marketing...

Red and black are extremely powerful colors, as we all know, ;-)

Wallet Splash - General Logo

Wallet start-up splash screen, general marketing, wallet colors. Megacoin is very red, but the red and semi-black works well.

In the Taskbar: (just representative of the need to make the icon small, and sharp, from scratch as an icon, some site that does this well for you).
These icons take a lot of work, special care needed for absolute simplicity, a replica of the general logo of course, but even more simple. This needs a lot of work to make it a good "icon", different animal.

First version. Stone shape + "P: in circle. Idea from HarryPotter movie

P.S. I will be very happy to receive any kind of bounty Wink

And my PHS wallet - 9Z7RRbMkHTuzc2yE8LXk3pc4TreGvnrN92

The use of red is very powerful and makes it stand out from all other wallets on a users machine. When looking in the taskbar at the currently running programs, it will blast out of that group. The quality of a stone, that is a gem, a ruby, the color from the movie is a good cross marketing technique. I like this, I want to see this in my taskbar wallet collection.

And Egypt?

Would aim to have as many as possible, may need some translators, will see what we are missing after next update.

I meant to ask if you know how many users there, it's at least 1 (me).
Anyway, I can translate it to Arabic if you want. Although crypto is yet to penetrate the Arabic world.
