It's possible to add Nicehash in the coin list ?
Or you cannot have the profit by day with them ??

Hello Patrike,

Thanks for your replies. Below are my answers to your questions:

1) I can add white space trimming to minimize input mistakes
Thank you!

2) Hash Refinery API is down, and that's probably why you can't get Awesome Miner to read new pools from it. I tried this with zpool intead and it works with yescrypt (I tried to add it to cpuminer-opt, works great but maybe not the most profitable mining I ever seen).
It is not down. The frontend was under heavy load due to the Nicehash hack so it would temporarily stop responding.
http://pool.hashrefinery.com/api/currencies



2) Do you have multiple pools on the same coin? Otherwise you could set the profit factor on the coin itself (Coins tab, then click Coin Properties in the toolbar)
Yes, for redundancy one needs to have more than one pool. But because not all of them have the same fee (and some of them like to shave the earnings), it is necessary to have some factor so the program always try to connect to the most profitable one first.

3) I will not argue that the benchmarking can be improved. But do you have that many different GPU types you need to benchmark, compared to how many miners you have in total? If you have a large number of miners, benchmarking a single GPU should be time saving as you don't have to benchmark so many rigs.
This is not always the case. I have 19 GPUs which are supposed to be equal (13 of them in the same rig) and they can be split into three separate groups because not all of them perform the same.
My point is, why not just benchmark the whole thing instead of doing individual benchmark?
Unless you are planning to do something like Nicehash Legacy Miner does, it doesn't make sense to have a separate benchmark for each GPU.
That would be nice maybe in the future, if you ever add the capability of treating each GPU as a separate entity. But right now it is just unnecessary pain, in my opinion.


5) Can you explain the -dcri part a bit more? Is it per secondary coin you want to set unique (like -dcri 30 for Pascal and -dcri 60 for Decred?) or is it per GPU? In your Profit Profile settings, you can select Claymore Etheruem miner and click Configure, where you can set different device profiles (where -dcri is a part) for each secondary coin. Please let me know if I didn't understood your question correctly here.

It is for Ethereum dual mining.
Roughly explained, the "dcri" parameter allows you to adjust Claymore and decide how much power you want allocate to either Ethereum or the secondary coin.
Due to constant price fluctuations, a fixed "dcri" parameter won't always be the most profitable, specially when you take in consideration the three secondary coins (Lbry, Decred, Pascal).
You will probably get a better idea if you download Nicehash Legacy Miner and let it benchmark your GPU for different "dcri" levels.

Hi, i just downloaded the new version of AM and still the override settings for miningpoolhub are not working for EWBF and DSTM miners, those miners are always taking the worker name that is specified on the profit switching general settings. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Is it possible to have two instances of Awesome Miner "Manager" running at the same time? I'm often travelling between cities and will be using two different desktops.

My thought is that if I implement a change like adding a pool or switching from managed to profit switching the other client may cause conflict.

HI with nicehash being down I have been playing with a few other multi algo miners and I have been having a play with awesome miner recently.

would any one have a config.xml of a few miners and pools setup so I can use as a base to figure it out as it is very technical and a bit confusing.

A note about Nicehash. Their web site is up and running again and their API's are responding with profitability. However, from what I've seen so far their pools are not up and running yet.

The current version of Awesome Miner is hardcoded to ignore listing the profit information from Nicehash, to not direct any mining there until we all know it's fully up and running. Once their service is online again, I will release a new upgrade for Awesome Miner as soon as possible where the profit switching will include Nicehash again.

okay i have just tried this to no avail, and am wondering would i need to re download the miners from the website since awesome miner has deleted them or can i just unzip them from within the (app data>local>awesome miner file)
since it is still showing the compressed files for each miner inside the awesome miner file. i hope you guys can help me work this out =)



If the folder for ccminer is missing but the ccminer-zip file exists, Awesome Miner will try to extract the zip file and run the mining. If the zip file doesn't exist, it will automatically be downloaded again. If you clear everything in the folder you specified, Awesome Miner will automatically download and extract everything again.

ty so much man! I appreciate it! it seems to be working now and am hashing away auto switching between pools using the ccminer!

My profit-switching is not mining Equihash on MPH though that is often the most profitable. I have this log entry:

GetAllEnabledPools, couldn't find existing for: MiningPoolHub [Equihash], stratum+tcp://us-east.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:17023, MiningPoolHub, Unspecified Equihash

  • Equihash is enabled in Algorithms > Algorithm and Profit-Switching settings
  • Equihash is enabled in Online Services for MiningPoolHub and Profit Switching
  • Equihash is enabled for the Profit Profile I am using (nVidia GPU)

Can't figure out why/where the "GetAllEnabledPools, couldn't find existing..." is looking and what it doesn't like?

I'm interested in the details of this issue. Can you please:

1) Go to Options dialog, Advanced section and increase the log level a bit
2) Reproduce the problem one more time
3) Send me the log file via the toolbar: Tools -> Log File.
4) Send me your ConfigData.xml file in %appdata%\AwesomeMiner folder

Please send to info[at]awesomeminer.com and reference that it's about "GetAllEnabledPools, couldn't find existing...". Many thanks!

hi I have just added awesome miner to the exclusions list, and I am still un-able to run the awesome miner, this is the error that I get, this is with all pools ticked  for auto profit switching and as soon as I untick all the boxes exept for miningpoolhub it will change over to EWBF cuda zcash miner 0.3.4b and start hashing away, ! I really wish I could figure this out =(

It's not AM that you need to virus exclude, it's the mining files.  Exclude the folders the miners are in and reinstall the miners.  Your antivirus has already deleted the miner so you will need to make sure it's put back and make sure your AV doesn't delete it again.

Hey Patrike

I'm trying to customize your software to display my portfolio / stats in one place via the Balance section of this software.
The builtin block explorer works for the coins loaded on that site.
Also, I've read the help section
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/coinbalance.aspx

Now I'm trying to put the balance in for
Bitcoinz, ZenCash, Hush, CVC, PIVX 

I've googled some block explorer sites for these coins... but I want to add them to the Balance section.

I mean I have found specific websites for these coins that detail their working block explorers.

I was hoping for some guidance on how to setup the Balance section for these coins. (its not a matter and cut/paste the URL, heh, I've tried)

How are any of you programming the Balance section to display the wallet totals of the coins that you are mining?

Its a handy feature to have in this software and the stock/default (BTC/LTC) features/explorers work fine. I'm just looking how direction as to how to program more than the available BTC/LTC coins

Thanks

Is this program compatible with the Pangolinminer Whatsminer M3? Has anyone tried? I checked the list
on the FAQ page, and it just says most miners. Being it's a new miner on the mining scene, I haven't seen
many facts about software compatibility.  I searched through recent posts, and couldn't find anything.
I'd really like to purchase this software for when I'm away at my day job.


If not allowed I'll remove. Thanx!!!
I've received a number of requests about this miner, but no confirmations on reports on if it's working on not. If it's running cgminer software with an API, Awesome Miner will be able to monitor it.

You can use the Free Edition of Awesome Miner and simply try to connect it to this miner and give it a try.

The M3 does use the cgminer software and api, based on the review on the forums.
Many thanks for your answer on this. If the API is compatible with cgminer, it should work out-of-the-box with Awesome Miner.

Awesomeness!!! Thanks for the replies. I'm definitely going to try it when I get everything set up. I'm very excited
to try awesome miner! Great Job on the work done there!

hey guys idk if anyone watches this thread but ive been having some problems setting up my awesome miner and am not finding anyone else with this issue, first of all I am wondering if I need to predownload all the mining software like ccminer 2.2.3 and other software or will it automatically download and use this software for me? I am able to mine on miningpoolhub setting with auto profit switching but as soon as I click the box to add zpool or hashrefinery it stops my awesome miner from working at all.. until I disable all but miningpoolhub.

"The system cannot find the file specified" indicates that Awesome Miner downloaded the mining software, but when it was about to start, your anti-virus software removed it already. If you go to the folder: C:\Users\shannon\AppData\Local\AwesomeMiner\ccminer-2.2.3_1\ccminer-x64-2.2.3-cuda9\
You will probably see that the ccminer binary is missing.

Example of how you can configure exclusions in Windows Defender:

hi there mate, ty for the help! ive just tried allowing the file thru windows firewall, but awesome miner still wont run on anything other than EWBF cuda zcash miner, will I need to create a ccminer binary?
