I dont know anything about LUX or it's profits but just getting all the current algos/coins to it can't be a bad thing lol.

In my experience LUX gives farrrr less than the estimates of any mining calc.

I noticed PHI1612 algo with LUX coin is very profitable almost all the time and better than most of the coins and also if you notice on aHashPool almost half of the pool is mining PHI algo, but AwesomeMiner does not include LUX coin and PHI1612 algorithm that will give at least 20% more profit if being used instead of the best other coins from AM.

Can you add the missing coins and mining algorithms for the next release, patrike ?
There are plenty of coins more profitable that AM ignores and are not added by default.

I added PHI1612 and LUX coin manually in many areas for pool and coin configs and it works. There is a bug that was noticed by a previous user, when you save initially the custom pool service for PHI,
AM removes the .com  from field "URL base" and the process won't start. I edited, added.com and saved again and it worked, the same as a previous user did and notified a few days ago.

It would be great to see the missing algorithms from AM that have hundreds of users on aHashPool and MinigPoolHub and add them to AM's new release. This will increase the daily revenue by at least 30% as it happened to me, but I had to add manually some missing and very profitable algo and coins.

I bet the users of AM will be very happy to see they are earning 30% more just because important algos like PHI are missing from AM, do you all agree ?

Is there a trick to be able to add a pool using awesome miner and baikal?

Every pool I add using awesome miner to my baikal it defaults to x11 algo.

I find AM to be remarkably accurate in revenue estimation.  Mining equihash the amount AM estimates is pretty spot on.

I agree i tested it on Nice hash for about a hour one time an watched AM it was as you said pretty spot on. ofc others for what ever reason will say I'm wrong which is fine but i did also test it one day and i did get what it said i would, give or take one or two bucks off so to me that is pretty dam accurate, it's all way gonna be off more or less depending on the time or what it is selling for the next day .

Hello Patrike,

It seems I have come across another bug.
It seems that AM  is unable to obtain API data from any of the Claymore's software whenever the amount of GPU is equal or above to 10.

To test it, I unplugged GPUs until I was down to 8 and it worked fine.
Then I plugged back in the 9th and it was working fine.
Then I plugged the 10th and once again AM was unable to get stats from Claymore and with it I'm back to the "Interface Offline" message inside Awesome Miner.

Unfortunately, this causes AM to unnecessarily restart the miner every now and then.
I am aware that I can disable the rule restarting the miner but then that will leave the rig down next time a real error happens and a restart is actually needed.

Is the timing always the same? what time is it happening at?

Scheduled event? Local network?

Have you noticed if the gui is functional during one of these times?

The timing seems to be related to the profit calculations. Whenever I look up the time, when the miners restarted in the log file, i see profit calculation update just before it.

Adding a screenshot of my dashboard. You can see what's happening with my two miners. Has to be on the main Awesome Miner side for the restarts to be in sync like that.

No image when you click on it?  Shocked

Tell me why, in the algorithm equihash right in the Info section the value 0,26305 and BTC/GH/day 278,21?

And another that would have properly accrued in Nash, in section ststistic option is correct to choose the current average or 24 hours?
Because exchange rates can change quickly and make the calculation for 24 hours not very well, and you can lose money?

What is the formula to calculate profit?


Because on the right it says BTC/kHs/day for Equihash and not GHs/day

Depends on whether you are using profit switching feature, you can totally ignore the rate if you are just mining specific coins, else only if you can sell/exchange instantly when you mine, the current rate is going to switch you between pools more often, it's not so good for most pools which uses PPLNS...unless you are using Exclusively Nicehash...which for simplicity, you could just use NiceHash's own program. Else, the formula you can look up on WhatToMine, all the tech aspects such as difficulty, block time, block rewards...AM doesn't make up numbers.

I've got my first version of my Masternode plugin working.. would this be useful to anyone out there?

YES!


I would love to test.

Hello, I have one computer that has a mixture of 980ti and 1070 and 1080ti cards. Is there a way I can split those up to get more efficient earnings? Right now they are on Nice hash but I would prefer the flexibility awesome miner gives me. Thanks

I got this figured out. I created a Profile Group and benchmarked each card individually. This is really good software. Keep up the nice work.

Had to use a restore point in windows 7 now AM has a start error of:    error loading Data.bin

Is there a quick fix for this, tried reinstalling.

Thanks

(Claymore's Dual Ethereum Miner)

Is the Data.bin file to do with Claymore's Miner, I can't seem to find the file anyone know where it's meant to be and if it's gone missing how do you get it back.

Well, just had another play with this program,
Seems that it just pulls the profit calculations from whattomine and the rates from coinbase.

I didn't know that,
I had assumed that if you were mining on just one pool, it would mine the most profitable coin on that pool.

I'd imagine you would have to have all the pool options selected for the average profitable coin to be in concurrent agreement with whattomine site (and really? why them, it has to be the most inaccurate place to get that info)

Also why coinbase for exchange prices, surly a better average price would be from coinmarketcap, cryptofinance, or even google.

That was probably the reason for identical miners being so different and one steadfastly selecting Lara2 despite me unselecting it in three seperate places in the program.

Anyhoo. after much messing about it seems I can just set up a ManagedMiner and once "makepredefinedpoolsavailubleeverywhere" is selected, can switch to the algo I want dependant on actual profits on the pools I use easily.


It's a shame it's such a winXP program with little thought to modern user interface, and only really understood after many weeks of use, I'm still totally unhappy with how the profit switching is difficult to parse and see what's going on, so I'll just use it for single Algo mining until I have a folder of miners and batch files, which will serve the exact same purpose.

Shame these type of programs can/could be rather useful, but it's grown into such a behemoth full of quirks and settings that only the programmer know how they interact with each other. So many tooltips trying to explain what a setting does - when it should be self evident. So many places for the same things, three different ways to deselect an algorithm in Algos in profit profiles, in managed miners - it's dam near crazy.

If you use this, just make sure you test pools and miners directly occasionally to make sure you are getting the best profit for your hashrates - stay safe out there.
To the programmer/owner, no offence meant, this is just a frustrating program, and I imagine you are insanely busy with helping people, answering the same questions over and over, and trying to track down issues in the code, let alone new feature requests, and certainly have no time for improvements in the UI, all the best, just thought I'd give you an overview of a random persons impression after a month using AM.



I agree that AM shows values that have nothing to do with real income usually you get 5 times less in payment from that pool than the value that AM shows to you and that is inflated a lot, even if you have 24hr average and compare values shown by AM with whattomine website you will see that AM inflates the values by 40% all the time, probably the reason is to cheat the users to use this software.

Also on top of above issue the biggest one is that the values have nothing to do with real pool reward. You will see that the income changes drastically when the new statistics are downloaded every 15 minutes (or configured value) instead of taking realtime pool reward that at least will be more realistic.

PATRIKE, You can implement a NodeJS server with WEBSOCKETS and send realtime correct values to all users.
A NodeJS instance can handle 100.000 simultaneous connections that are notified instantly with used pools profitability instead of having 100.000 users to download statistics that are delayed sometimes with even an hour compared to realtime revenue that you can provide with websockets.   


What is the point to see that you make $200/day/rig shown and being lied by AwesomeMiner and in reality you are being paid by the pool with 10 times less ?

It is very important for every user that has installed AM to compare the real daily payment from the pool with the value shown in AM to understand where AM does a lot of mistakes and also we have to ask Patrike to fix the issue because you will loose lots of money otherwise. 

Who thinks the same as I do, that Websockets implementation is 100 times better than this year 90's implementation of request based implementation ?


I'd question the usefulness of real time revenue - I even question the use of 1 hour profitability found on some YIIMP pools when hundreds of other miners are constantly changing into that algorithm because it makes more money at that exact instance. This is further compounded by difficulty changes, fluctuating markets, pool luck, pool PPLNS or similar payment systems, time for miners to reach full speed, etc.

I've found AM to be +/- 20% of estimated profits which considering the above variables I am fine with. For example, my estimated profit was 90 USD (and I didn't even specify the coin the algorithm was mining) and received ~75 USD after conversion to BTC from ahash using Ahash's own 24 hour profitabilty data for profit switching.
