You could also go to
Code:
Help -> Debug window -> Console
and type
Code:
setgenerate true 1
where 1 is the number of cores to use for mining.

Thanks Sharky - not sure where the config file is located though. As an example, I downloaded the Jesuscoin and the duckiecoin packages, both only include .exe files. I have no problem installing the wallets, I just have no idea where to point my miner to...

add gen=1 to the .conf file of the coin, and restart.

I'm new to mining and I recently came across Matt Corallo's Coigen.io website where you can create your own altcoin (as discussed here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/for-sale-due-to-lack-of-development-time-automatic-altcoin-generator-396991).

It seems pretty interesting and I thought it would be fun to create an altcoin or mine some other altcoins created with Coingen.

Does anyone know how to actually mine these new coins? I cannot seem to find a guide anywhere on this site or on Coingen's site. I am used to connecting to a pool with cgminer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
