Hello Patrike,

I had a rig that for some reason can not upgrade to the 4.7.3 remote service.  It can't be uninstalled manually because it says it's not installed... though it's still running, AM can't control the rig.  I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling both services with the Remote Service Configuration tool, but that doesn't seem to do any good.  When I try to manually install the new 4.7.3 MSI it says it can't find a noteservice.msi to complete the uninstallation of the old 4.7.2 service.  I've look on my other rigs that did upgrade successfully, but this MSI is no where to be found.

Are there any manual steps to uninstallation/cleanup of the remote service from a rig so I can start fresh?
Hi,

Please check out this tool from Microsoft that can be used when a MSI-based installer isn't behaving as it should - and this can be used to force a removal:

Hello Patrike,

That fixed it so I could install the 4.7.3 remote service.  I had to give it the option to not stop the services and reboot, as the first attempt to stop the services failed again after running that Microsoft tool.  After the successful install of the remote service, I still couldn't couldn't control the rig... ran diagnostics and it said that it couldn't find the mining software.  So I went back to the rig to reset the folders in Windows Defender... I've had to do this before.  Weird thing was that Defender wasn't running.  It wouldn't start either.  I had to go into the registry to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender key... and turn Defender back by changing DisableAntiSpyware to 0

Then I could reset the folders for Defender to ignore with AM... and now it works.

Strange circumstances, but thanks to your help it's resolved now.  Just posting this information in case other run into this situation with the Remote Service or Windows Defender.

Patrike, BTCP included by default in the 4.7.3?  How is it shown?  I doesn't exist in the coin listing, I can't select it and add it as a pool coin, etc?

Do tell?  Cuz I mine this all the time, and have been using the external api program to pull in the data

UPDATE: are you just talking about the coin graphic, because indeed that works now, but the coin isn't listed in any listing until I ran the external api program that pulls the data

graphics just put appropriate image file in %appdata% AM folder as BTCP.png

coin isn't listed in the whattomine coins.json, you have to add it yourself if haven't done so, no need for external program unless whattomine info is borked (such as LUXcoin)
http://whattomine.com/coins/230.json


yeah, that doesn't help much because WTM isn't populating price, value, etc.  So the external thing does all that for me for now until it gets listed on a real exchange, then WTM should work.

So at least I have the icon, etc, but everything else is coming from the external api program
BTCP was supposed to be included by default in the last release, but I noticed a bug where it was only automatically added if you had any other custom JSON URL's specified. I will correct that. The coin image should however be available already.

Your observation is correct that right now WhatToMine doesn't list any exchange rate for this coin. But once that's available, it will of course be available in Awesome Miner automatically.

Patrike:

Any new updates on you checking into the code of NemoMiner to improve the profit switching of AwesomeMiner?

The reason i ask is im nearing my 2 month mark of running 1 GPU on AM and 1 GPU on NM from the same watercooled PC using the same miners per algo comparison test. The margin of actual payout between the 2 wallets has grown wider.....
I've not checked the that code, but since version 4.7 you have the feature "Adjust reported revenue" that is similar to what you requested earlier.
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/coinstats.aspx

All statistics from the Yiimp-based pools are collected in the cloud and and the estimated and actual payouts are compared - and the result is a percentage value that Awesome Miner can use. When you enable this feature, you can see it on the Online Services tab for each pool.

I created a new miner for my cpu using XMRIG but one my ryzen i can use up to 16 core right now only getting 8 used . I went to appdata for xmrig. but the json file is not configurated at all. how can change the settings ?

Thanks

You have 8 cores/16 threads and 16MB of cache. Cryptonight likes 2 megabytes of cache per thread and as such 8 threads used is normal for a Ryzen 7. What hashrate are you getting?

Have a Ryzen 1700X overclocked at 4ghz, with xmrig on awsome miner i get 450h/s, but when i mine with xmr stack i get 640h/s xmr stack use 15 threads.

Run awesome miner or the agent as Administrator and set the xmrig binary to run as administrator as well. Usually the xmrig folder Awesome Miner downloads is in c:/users//AppData/Local/AwesomeMiner/xmrig... for the remote service it's in c:/users//AppData/Roaming/AwesomeMinerService/xmrig... You have to run as admin for xmrig to be able to use huge pages which should get you more hashrate. You may also need make a group policy change to enable it. Can you post a screen shot of the xmrig window when it first starts or run diagnostics on it from within Awesome Miner and post that.

I have updated my rigs to the latest but I am still having that silly issue with Mining Dutch.

If I have all of my pools enabled and the most profitable algo becomes skein on Mining Dutch, then for some reason Awesome Miner starts mining x11 on Mining Dutch, and only on Mining Dutch.

I had to disable skein and x11 on Mining Dutch to deal with the problem  Sad

suggestion: like we add pool on yiimp base in Online service, to be able to add the balances of this pools or other pools with API

Great software, great work!!!

Awesome Miner version 4.7.2

- Network scan for ASIC miners can include miners with blocked API, but with a response on the web port
- Improved rule trigger for Revenue/Profit to also support Profit Profiles
- Added new mining software: Ravencoin Miner for X16r algorithm
- XMRig 4.6 Beta for CPU, AMD and nVidia, with support for more kinds of Cryptonight algorithms
- Adjust to new Nicehash Nist5 unit reporting in TH/s
- Adjust to new Mining Pool Hub reporting of CryptonightV7 profit information
- Correction to benchmarking of XMRig when a specific GPU was selected


Can you prease give back the "domain matching" to "online services"... now it's gone and i can not use/set SSL for MPH

Thank's
In the latest release I added a feature when you can set URL prefix (like ssl://) for each entry in Options dialog, Online Services. This should be a more flexible solution. Please let me know your feedback on this.

It's even better than before.. because MPH has all of pools SSL but not all software supported it.. Now we can manuali select whitch algo uses SSL and whitch not Wink
Best feature

After i upgraded to 4.7.1 my gpu clocking profiles are not applied when algo switch happens.
Manually I can set gpu clocking in the gpu settings form, so I think the Afterburner integration is working properly.
Now I am using 4.7.2 but the bug still reproducable.
Is it possible to verify from the Awesome Miner log file (toolbar: Tools -> Log File) if Awesome Miner is sending any clocking commands to MSI Afterburner? Search for "Executing GPU clocking command".

Hey another request, this time im being lazy not about to look though 286 pages here Smiley sadly so yell at me if you must .

here goes

can you add https://prohashing.com  to the Pool balance list it works a lot like mining pool hub does with API key's but only uses two ports to get to get to it that i know of, not sure if that makes it a issue .

prohashing.com:3333

proxy.prohashing.com:443


Prohashing is very special as it uses the password field to specify algorithm information, and the Pool URL is always "prohashing.com:3333" no matter of what is being mined. Because of this special design of prohashing, it's not possible for any software to look at the Pool URL and see which coin or algorithm is being mined - all of them look identical. This is a major drawback in the design of prohashing and it will for that reason be difficult supported with profit information from Awesome Miner. I'm not saying that's impossible, just that this pool has a special design that doesn't work well with any management application.

Hello. So I managed to setup mining at Blazepool. It was quite a bit of work getting it setup, and I'm a little proud of myself for sticking with it, and getting it up and working. I had to read instructions, and there was a bit of trial and error, but it's up and running. I am having an issue though, so I'm here for the Awesome support that we're all so lucky to have. So, Qubit is showing profit of $4750.00 a day, on my Baikal Giant+, that's obviously wrong (unfortunately). It should be reading $4.75, so to resolve it, I tried going to user defined online services and editing the Blazepool Qubit entry. I changed the profit factor to .001, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. I'm thinking even if the place is still wrong, it still should of changed the decimal point place. Kinda stumped here at this point. This same issue has prevented me from adding Starpool (most of the decimal points are wrong, and I can't seem to get them to change places the way I'm trying) Is there another trick I'm missing to get this to change, or is there a bug or something? Thanks for all the hard work Patrike! Almost up to 10 miners, will be upgrading soon, and looking forward to gaining even more features!
Thanks for your feedback. Setting Profit Factor to 0.001 should have been the solution. It can be set per entry in the Options dialog, Online Services section and will only be applicable for that pool. You may have to hit the Update Now button in the Online Services tab and wait a moment before the numbers are updated.

When adding some custom pools, Awesome Miner simply doesn't know the unit the pool uses, and that's why it you sometimes get 1000 times too large numbers. When these pools are reporting profitability, it can look like "0.00123" when Awesome Miner get the information. But for some algorithms this indicates BTC/MH/s while it represents BTC/GH/s for others - and there is no way of telling from the numbers.

This is also the reason why whenever there is a change at the pools to report in GH/s instead MH/s, the profit numbers becomes incorrect in Awesome Miner and I need to release a new version to adjust to it. In a perfect world, the pools would tell which unit (MH or GH) there were reporting in, but that's not the case.

Blazepool is also included by default in the latest release.
