You need to add workers for Sia, too. Try:

Although 15% sounds a bit too exaggerated even to me, I would be curious as to how NiceHash actually compares against other pools.
I used ethermine.org as a user for a while, and I am under the impression that its predictions are not particularly reliable.
If the actual data shows that there is room for improvements, we will take care of it. No worries.

Yeah, that statement doesn't apply to daggerhashimoto/Ethash, at least for now. Sorry about that...

Really?

Nicehash is currently paying 0.0565 BTC/GH/Day



I'm mining ETH at ~260 MHs and that means~.0143 BTC/day on Nicehash

But on Ethermine, I get a bit more, without the 4% fee!



Can you please explain how cant I get 15% more on Nicehash?

With numbers, please?

As long as you don't distribute excavator (in any way), it is fine. Read EULA.


It may be high, but you earn about 15% more than any other pool + you are paid PPS - for each share.

Good question
I was thinking of doing a WPF app for this, but i doubt i will get the time

Hi, this is a question mostly for the devs of the miner.
I was wondering if you guys would have any objections to third party UI for the excavator (obviously using one of your APIs)?
I am aware that you guys are working on your own UI which will eventually be public, i just wanted to make sure that you would be "ok" with such before i invest any serious time into it.

Thank you for the miner, hashing away!

This is my command file

I was using the 17.4.4 Crimson package with the 16.9 drivers.
I thought that was causing the issue

I am now running 17.6.2 with ATK patcher applied and windows in test mode

Running claymore now

Hardware

6 x rx480 Strix (samsung)
1 x rx 480 MSI

I reset all bios / clocks to stock and still the same thing

I can run with modded bios and no hardware acceleration and get around 184-188 MH/S

Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the exact same issue, even when using the default command file.

The CUDA people are currently working on it. It will be ready very soon.

Which video card are you using? I'd like to see your command file as well.

When do you plan to add CUDA to algo daggerhashimoto?

Can anyone help with the hardware acceleration?

running just the admin-start.bat I get

Build time: 2017-06-20 22:37:05
Build number: 410
Provided startup commandline:
        excavator  -c default_command_file.json

Press any key to continue . . .

Do i need to edit this bat file for excavator?

If i right click and run the original bat file as admin, I get a constant loop of "Excavator has crashed"

I tried it yesterday with no success. Read the previous page and you'll see other user confirming it will only work with NiceHash and Suprnova (?)

If anyone figures how to get it to work with Ethermine, I would love to know!

NOTE: I'm obviously refering to ETH mining. You can use excavator with other algorithms in other pools. But wit DaggerHashimoto, only nicehash's stratum protocol is supported :-(

Well from that i see I am in the 4% category... that is quite high indeed

So the first post in this topic isn't correct?
I'm still new to this miner and haven't really had a chance to use it properly. You're saying it won't work with ethermine?

Mind elaborating why using excavator on nicehash has a really high service fee???

No, but you can't use it in any pool. If you use it in Nicehash you'll pay a high service fee.

But excavator doesn't have any devfee, does it?
