You should run boolbd.exe to solo mine. It's exactly the same as with original miner.

~~I may be doing it wrong or it might just not work with Nvidia on Windows 7.~~

I have a GeForce GTX 560 Ti; the usage goes up to 99% but it says "efficiency: 0% (shares 0/0, blocks 0/0)".

:\

oops, found a share! hashrate is 336,333. any way to make it take up less than 99% of the GPU though?

i'll leave it running while i'm out and let you know what happens

You should run boolbd.exe to solo mine. It's exactly the same as with original miner. My versions just uses GPUs instead of CPU cores.

Code:

boolbd --start-mining= --mining-threads=1

(or 2,3 if you have many GPUs).

It should synchronize the blockchain before mining starts so wait if you run boolbd.exe first time. If you loaded the blockchain with original boolbd this miner will use it.

Quote from: ?? on ??

I'm not sure how you solo mine BBR with GPU as every error message when starting simpleminer.exe is "Failed to parse arguements: the option --login is required but missing." Why is this a necessity, and what does the login pertain to?

Open source Boolberry OpenCL miner
https://github.com/mbkuperman/boolberry-opencl.git

Read README.md for details and build instructions.

Windows x64 executables:
https://github.com/mbkuperman/boolberry-opencl/releases/download/v1.0/BoolberryOCL-20140719.zip

2% developer donation (you can change or disable it in the configuration file)

Solo version: boolbd.exe (best performance/reliability)
Pool (JSON RPC) version: simpleminer.exe (please, use solo version if you can!)

Personally, I think it doesn't make any sense to use pools while the block value is about $7. Just give enough time to the solo miner.

Tested on AMD GPUs only!

Expected performance:
6870, R270x - 500-600 khs
6970, R280X - 900-1000 khs

what does that mean "expected performance" ? Is this numbers you obtained with your cards ?

we need GPU miner, Boolberry is a good coin, worth a fairer distribution.

I don't know if a GPU miner would bring fairer distribution. I believe the scratchpad has to be fetched from the network, meaning a nice and slow host to device copy really often. A better CPU miner would probably bring fairer distribution.

It seems to me that both do achieve network effect to some extent, where extend is being lower for GPU - but its time scale is smaller (atleast atm). Here i'll note that the ratio of hashpowers U/A (in terms of wild Keccak), where U is hashpower used for mining any altcoin and A is “available” hashpower atm in the whole world, is much larger for GPU i suppose, which kinda means that less effort has to be put into marketing to release network effect potential. Here i'll not bother to define “available” hashpower since above seems to be holding for most(any?) reasonable definitions. It seems kinda obvious that using most of the available potentials "saves time" in sense that it buys additional time from the same recourses.
But i could be wrong

If i'm right, neater should be ignored. If the point is to go faster toward a fairer distribution, the GPU should be prioritized.

Anyhow, because of human psychology it seems that fair distribution of privacy oriented coin is much more important than one with public ledger, thus i believe that goal should be to go toward fairer distribution as fast as possible. It mitigates some FUD vectors

If you can mine as fast or slower with a GPU than with a CPU, you won't waste the power - CPUs use less. Miners don't care what they mine, as long as it's profitable.

I may have skewed angle on all this crypto stuff as BBR is almost as new to me as BTC. Still fill like Alice in Wonderland Grin

I'm just sharing some points that cross my mind. And do enjoy your posts, but technical stuff you write seem like magic to me

That is a good test. Any other people with Macs able to try it out?

I've set up wallets on 2 macbook pros (seems to be working fine)

mac 1

If anyone wants to send me some coins, I can test that I can send coins between wallets and to/from exchanges (Poloniex/ Bittrex) and to/from PC.

Thanks

Sure, i'm looking at sources...
btw: you also could check executables on https://www.virustotal.com/ to be sure if there are no malware.

Today I merged last commits (about a week) from your master branch and now my boolbd.exe gives an exception upon exit (last log record - [SRV_MAIN]Node stopped). It was OK before that. Do you have a clue what commit could cause it?

Have no idea..., hard to say without additional info, can you point the place where does it crushes ? Just run it under gdb or visual studio to catch...
Also, sometime clean/full rebuild helps.

Great Job!

Did a very basic test. Worked to receive money from my real wallet and send it back.

Suggestion:

If you enter an address that isn't a valid BBR address, it says "wrong address". It would be more informative if it said "invalid address".

Corrected, thank you!

And please, say it works....

It's syncronizing. I'm not a mac guy, but we have one in my office. I'll let you know how it goes. What should I be testing, btw?
Edit: I created a wallet and sent money to it and sent from it.

any news on GPU miner?

still no update on the gpu miner, it looks like we have to wait for sometime.

The bright side to this is more time to accumulate at the current pricing.
