Is there a good reason I should not stick with the older wallet for now (says I'm on Qt 5.3.0), since it's working just fine for me?
Looking forward to new NXT-inside wallet, that will hopefully be a little easier to install.

By all means stick with the old wallet, if it ain't broke don't fix it! : -)


Great! Reading all the problems people are having and hoping I wouldn't have to negotiate them myself Smiley
It's one thing I love about the NXT wallet: it's a one-click download and it works out of the box. If the SuperWallet does this for participating currencies it will be a great attraction.

Never had a problem. Connected and staking all this time.

The new wallet file is the same as the original wallet, just with a new logo and some checkpoints for syncing.

Mine is working perfectly, but I had to delete everything except my wallet and BitcoinDark.conf, restart the wallet and let it redownload the blockchain.

Same here. Also remapping the sync IPs seems to help.

I am making progress. Not sure what worked to be honest but the blockchain is now downloading on the new wallet. Fingers crossed.

A suggestion: put the .conf instructions at the top of the OP with the fresh wallet links, people will see it easier. Or even better, a download of a .conf file all ready to go.

Thanks to those who tried to help. Hope this go works.

Just wanted to say, I've been using the .conf file with the correct name all along.  It was connecting to nodes.  I don't think that was the problem.

Anyone that is having sync issues with the wallet, please download and reinstall the following wallet: https://mega.co.nz/#!ApVilbba!gO6mrhcvSdu-tOhjJ_8y39VhBzzuzSw-5ZMbbUDdVw0

(That's from the top of the ANN OP.)

I've done that, but it's still having trouble syncing.  Now it stops at ~1301 block remaining.  I'm using Win 7.

EDIT: More specifically, it's stuck on block 100483.  So the number of blocks remaining is slowly increasing as time goes on.

Same issue here. Wallet with the old logo works fine, I keep having issues with the newer wallets.

Did all that. Even tried with both BitcoinDark.conf and bitcoindark.conf

No difference. 

At this point I have restored the files (all) from my backup folder and have a working wallet with correct balance, but the hanging blockain.("1310 blocks remaining").

Is there some more specific file(s) i can delete to get a new blockchain without breaking the wallet ...?

Ok, it's been 45 minutes, still no active connections to the network, needless to say, no blockchain. Tried also with firewall offetc.

Any ideas?

Do you have a bitcoindark.conf file in your C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoindark folder?

There was not one. Created a file in notepad, pasted from the OP and saved it as bitcoindark.conf  in that folder. No help.

Are you sure it saved as BitcoinDark.conf, not bitcoindark.conf.txt?

Also, you need to close your wallet and restart it.
