Topic: D0miner V1.4 - Cryptonight miner with charity mining - page 2. (Read 809 times)

I wish more coins took this approach. Half of one percent is a tiny amount, but could grow it something large and make a real impact down the road. I wish you good luck with your project and believe charity functions will be a standard feature going forward.

That would be cool, it should work on older cards too, but i have none of those, so i can't test 

Interesting, will give it a try when I have time.

Goes it support all AMD generations? Tahiti, Hawaii, Fiji, etc?

This is really great, thank you very much for your efforts. I get 10% more xmr than on other programs ...

Nobody is interested to test?

What is new in V1.4 ?
- Added support for Nicehash
- Added support for SSL/TLS encrypted stratum connections


What can this miner offer you beside usual mining functionalities:

DevFee:
- Low DevFee (0.85%) -> every ~2 hours 1 minute mining for the dev
- Non-agressive DevFee mining -> if miner can't connect to DevFee pool, no problem, switching back to user pool ASAP
- 3 locations for DevFee pool : europe, asia, usa


Performance:
- Only one parameter you have to play with : intensity (0 - 100)
- Leave intensity on 0, and miner will try to set intensity automatically for your GPU
- To get even better results, there is an option to use double threads


Charity:
- You can offer 0.55% of your earnings (that is 1 minute of mining every ~3 hours) for charity
- 0.55% is something you won't even notice, but it can mean a lot to someone in need
- Non-agressive Charity mining, if it can't connect to Charity pool, it will switch back to user pool


Extra:
- Watchdog that resets miner if it detects the GPU is not hashing (probably video driver crashed)


Tips:
- If you leave intensity on 0 it will play safe, so in many cases you can increase that value to get better results
- For better results set double_threads to true, and leave intensity on 0
- If you get an error that says it can't create scratchpad buffer, you have to lower intensity
- To disable charity mining just delete charity pool, wallet and password fields from the config file
- If you think that i don't deserve the DevFee, you can use the -iamagreedybastard parameter


Have to make this work ?

The config file :

"intensity" : A NUMBER BETWEEN 0-100,
"double_threads" : TRUE OR FALSE,
"target_temperature" : A NUMBER BETWEEN 0-99,
"pool_use_tls" : TRUE OR FALSE,
"pool" : "ADDRESS OF MINING POOL:PORT",
"wallet" : "ADDRESS OF YOUR WALLET",
"password" : "x",
"location" : "EUROPE OR ASIA OR USA",
"log_file" : "IF YOU WANT TO LOG MINER OUTPUT PUT A FILENAME HERE",
"charity_pool" : "ADDRESS OF POOL FOR CHARITY MINING",
"charity_wallet" : "ADDRESS OF WALLET FOR CHARITY MINING",
"charity_password" : "x"

#SET GPU'S MANUALLY
#This example uses GPU devices with ID 0,1,3,4 and every GPU has it's own setting
"gpu_conf" :
[
   { "id" : 0, "intensity" : 0, "double_threads" : true},
   { "id" : 1, "intensity" : 55, "double_threads" : false},
   { "id" : 3, "intensity" : 25, "double_threads" : true},
   { "id" : 4, "intensity" : 0, "double_threads" : true},
]

So if you for ex. have 6 GPU's but want only to use 3, first run d0miner.exe --listdevices to list devices and their id's, that you can put in config file under gpu_conf part.

DON'T comment out or remove intensity and double_threads setting at the top of the config file, just leave it as-is, because when you use a per card setting, those settings will be ignored.

After setting up the config.txt file, just run start.bat


Options:

- Press 's' when miner is running to see some basic stats
- Press 'h' when miner is running to see hashing speed

Parameters:

--listdevices (display available GPU devices and their ID's, to use in gpu_conf)
--disablegpuwatchdog (turn off watchdog, if it is making some trouble for you)
--iamagreedybastard (use it if you think i don't deserve the 0.85% devfee)

Info:
You have to change the wallet address in sample config.txt file, if you leave it, you will mine some XMR to me.
Also the charity address in the sample config.txt is Wolf0's XMR address. I modified his OpenCL kernel, so he deserves some coins for his work.
