"ignore pools with no accept shares" - don't work right with Rules "accept share" . it must like this: "ignore pools with no accept share in NN last minutes".why? with rules "accept share" pools restart 2-3 times,and if after this pools still no accept share (in 30 minutes) this pool must banned (2-5 hour).

mining-duth today work ugly. send incorrect price and no accept shares.
but other pools may work good after restart.

Also, I thought about editing Qubit globally, but that would screw up all the other pools that are displaying it correctly, so I never went down that road.

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!

Why is XMR-STAK still defined as just CN algo and not CNv7 ?

When i add external miners for CNv7 miner XMR-STAK is grayed out

With the addition of x16r and x16s why is Raven and Pigeon coins not added to the list. Also why is there no actual good mining software given for x16r and x16s. i.e. Suprminer, Ravencoin miner, Nevermore miner? These are better optimized miners than the one provided. Would be great if you could add these so it no longer needs to be custom defined.

https://github.com/Ravencoin-Miner/Ravencoin -- Ravencoin Miner
https://github.com/ocminer/suprminer -- Suprminer
https://github.com/brian112358/nevermore-miner -- Nevermore Miner
you can add it yourself. elementary.

Ravenminer should be in the default miners...

Obviously you can add it yourself, but there is also issues with the upload custom miner due to sizes. Ravenminer which he added is very outdated and garbage compared to the ones i linked. Ravencoin Miner is the fastest currenty with Suprminer second (ran by Ocminer/Suprnova). Those 2 miners should be added due to the far improvements for x16r/x16s

Thanks for the feedback. At least the Ravencoin Miner is included in the latest release.

The Nicehash API changed the unit of reporting for Nist5 to TH/s, resulting in too high profit values being displayed. I will soon release an updated version of Awesome Miner to adjust to this change. Let's hope they implement the hash unit in the API information in the future to avoid breaking changes.

Any difference if you right click on the miner, select "Define Pool Coin", and then set it to CryptonightV7 -> Monero?

Thanks Patrike!!!

It worked, Sir.  Much appreciated...

When AM mined Monero for me b4 last weekend, I see that AM had 2 monero entries in coins tab (obviously one on old chain, and one is the v7), it makes selecting pool coins a bit difficult since they both shows up in the Pool Coins list as Monero....I just identified the old one and hides it from the coin's view entirely.

My point is, did you check if that's the case that your miner might have been selecting the non-V7 version for the pool or the template? Just a wild guess since that wouldn't be the case if you are using just 1 pool for monero, but guessing you might have setup more than 1 xmr pool @ nanopool on a different regional stratum?

I figured out what the issue is:

New Pools were created for the following test using MoneroV7:

I'm connecting to nano pool with my R9 series rigs with SSL using Claymore CryptoNight [No Monero logo with Daily/Monthly Revenue].
I'm connecting to nano pool with my RX series rigs using Cast Miner with TCP [See Monero logo with Daily/Monthly Revenue].

When I have it set for stratum+ssl, I DO NOT get the Monero logo with Daily/Monthly Revenue [While using Claymore CryptoNight on R9 series rigs].
When I have it set for stratum+tcp, I DO get the Monero logo with Daily/Monthly Revenue [While using Claymore CryptoNight on R9 series rigs].

https://i.imgur.com/C4AkyjH.jpg

So, there's a POTENTIAL BUG when using stratum+ssl to mine Monero with Claymore CryptoNight.  At least it is with Nano Pool.  Not sure if it would do the same if using another pool.  More than likely would be the same issue.  

NOTE:  I could not get stratum+ssl to work at all with Cast Miner but works fine with stratum+tcp

Hi Patrike,

I was hoping this update might fix my previous issue with "some" rigs not showing revenue per day/month for Monero V7.

Let me be more specific:

Before the recent update, R9 380 and R9 390 Rigs using Claymore CryptoNight to mine Monero V7 showed $0.0 daily/monthly revenue.  However, RX 480 and RX 580 rigs using Cast XMR to mine Monero V7 showed daily/monthly revenue.

After the most recent update, I'm having the same issues except for one more ADDED issue.  The R9 380 and 390 rigs still show no daily/monthly revenue when using Claymore CryptoNight to mine MoneroV7.  But now they don't even show the Monero logo.  I did not think it would affect that issue if I upgraded each managed miner mining Monero V7 "with" Claymore CryptoNight but I did so anyway to see if that would fix it but no dice.

To be clear:  The rigs that ARE showing the MoneroV7 logo are using Cast XMR to mine Monero with RX 400 and 500 series rigs.  The rigs with NO MONERO LOGO at all are R9 series rigs using Claymore CryptoNight to mine MoneroV7.

Here is a link to a screenshot of the issue: https://i.imgur.com/C4AkyjH.jpg

Algo switching is complicated, really complicated as it is affected by many factors from including individual blockchain networks' stability and accuracy, statistic gathering site's accuracy (such as WTM), Pools profit reporting accuracy (Yiimp, MPOS), Pool Luck, number of miners mining the coin/algo, TTF block, pray you didn't mine on the wrong chain on a chain split....etc. and a lot more.

Most are truly out of AMs control but some you can alleviating by carefully selecting your own pools, IMHO, AM's true potential doesn't lie with Profit Switching with its own Predefined Online Services, it's mere an introduction or a workaround for ppl who are looking at ease of use tools like NiceHash, NEMO, MPM (quote need verification, I never used NEMO, MPM) where your variability in profit are less pronounced as they limit themselves to only a few set of pools. The beauty of AM is that you can already turn ANY combination of pools, coins/algos that's available in the cryptoworld today (mineable ones of course) into its Profit Switcher!

Like I suggested before, Switch Away from predefined Online Services and find your own pools for your coins, Stay away from auto exchanging Yiimps too if you are a true profit switcher. The former is flooded by too many users, the latter interferes with real coins' profit statistics. Also, a profit switcher tries to stay away from PPLNS, PPLNT pools (which can be a painful time consuming job to find) especially if the PPLNS, PPLNT window is < pools block time...you will waste time mining there (luckily most Yiimps are PROP but most Equi and Ethash pools aren't), also use @soothaa's coin plugin for starters and switch away from WTM...use WTM only for more established blockchains, the less established ones can get overlooked and not accurate at all, when problem occurs, they can take days to get fixed, if fixed at all. Also, true profit switcher uses "Current" statistics rather than 24 hour avg, this is suggested by Ahashpool, I find it hard to believe in the first place but starting to understand why.

Custom Online Services, that's what I was looking for. Thx a lot

One big question:

I have set up several yiimp style pools, with some custom coins
Is it possible for Awesome miner to read API's from theese pools to switch between custom coins? Like I suppose it does with zergpool or zpool
I want the program to switch based on difficulty, better than estimated profit.
As there are coins wich difficulty changes each block, manual input makes no sense...

Yiimp public APIs don't seem provide current network/block difficulty, you'll want to use Soothaa's Coin Plugin and stay away from built-in Yiimp pools, reason being (not sure if it's fixed but right now it's Working as Intended) that the profitability data returned from the predefined Yiimp API overrides individual coin's profitability. Also Yiimp pools like zpool will redivert you to its own determined most profitable coins and convert to your coin specified in (-p c=XXX) with that, comes conversion fee. and you are not really mining that coin...you mine any coins of that algo and they gets converted based on market rate then you cash out and convert again when you want to sell them....that's why I say stay away from auto-exchanging Yiimp if you plan to convert yourself at later time yourself sees fit.

let me put this in picture:

You are mining say, Neoscrypt coins that are currently not the most profitable, so AM switched you away to other algos. but next minute, you are mining GoByte on 1 miner, and Innova on another, and you are wondering why it's all over the place. The situation turns out clear that suddenly Zpool reports highest profitability on its Neoscrypt pools, and it overrides all Neoscrypt coins which you have custom pool setup with the same profitability info.

You suddenly see something like:

Zpool Neoscrypt @ $5/day
GBX @ $5/day
CRC @ $5/day
DSR @ $5/day
INN @ $5/day

even if you have coins info correct and individual pools setup....on different pool, the result is, some of your miners mines at Zpool, but some mines individual coins at the obvious wrong profitability at another pool.

Hi, the more i used this tool, the more i am desesparate lol
I think i will give up.
A simple thing :
Launching miners and checking them remotely does work
Now, if i want to do managed miners, just one algo (i set up a template) to replicate the same settings , i put rules also to restart the miner, the miners will always stop for one reaoson or not, AMD or Nvidia, where they never stop when i run them without awesome miner...
Lossing so much time and energye and money...

Don't understand how a simple thing like that can't work properly
Tried the algo swithcing, and it is very rare that the tool will choose the correct algo...At the end, i just end up with Zec for Nvidia and ETH for AMD, sadly...Tought this tool could make some optomization, but it makes things worse.

Will check up other tool for monitoring, because i am really not convinced by any algo switching tool
Already when i was using MPH function for that, was very disappointed by the profit generated.

Now, unless spending time to find yourself the good coin to mine, and manage to sell fast, i don't see how this can make more money, just spend more time lol



Hi,

If you haven't given up yet, would you elaborate on your situation please? How was your system(s) setup, HW used, mining SW used. Rule Settings.

Checked Tools -> LogFiles  for any "[E]" flags to show insight to what might gone wrong?

No disrespect intended.  Usually, the issue with Awesome Miner not working as expected is "User Error" and not the application itself.
