Is there a noob guide available for mining GMC? I'm brand new to scrypt mining, and I'd like to dip my toes in first by starting on my PC and then moving to a miner, assuming I get all my ducks in a row. So hopefully you helpful folks can help get me off to the races.
I downloaded GameCredits Core and ran it, but it didn't seem obvious what to do to get started. When it runs, I see 'No block source available' in the bottom left, and on the right, if I hover over the icon I see '0 active connections to the GamerCredits network'.
I also downloaded cgminer, registered for a pool, and was having trouble running the batch file that's supposed to start it on a Windows machine. I knew that it wouldn't quite work since I don't have a dedicated graphics card installed just yet, although I have a couple laying around that are nothing special but would at least function as training wheels. But I don't see the 'cgiminer' file in the folder that I extracted; only cgming-nogpu. Not sure if this is related to the fact that I don't actually have a dedicated GPU installed yet.
Anyway, I would certainly appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. I'm sure there are detailed instructions around here somewhere...

download the zip. open qt creator. go to open file, choose the qt.pro file. then when it opens, build. The kits are the compilers you choose to use to build your programs. I assume your using gcc. It tells you at the bottom what your supposed to do. With red thingys for errors. All gui is based off qt widget tech for linux. You should learn to use it. For gui stuffs anyway.

To be honest, I always compile my own wallets, and rarely have had a problem. this one usually compiles in around ten minutes. I personally don't know how to use the QT creator thing, but I might give it a shot later in the day. Meantime, I'll try to find someone who can help you. I want things to be perfect, we have a long way to go.

Use qt creator. The second link is in testing stage and not recommended to use. I wouldn't touch it. If you need the rpm for the berkley db http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/server/db.html
qt creator should be able to build it for you on any linux distro.

unfortunately, that's the original repo. We don't have access to it, and rather sporadic contact with one of the devs. I'll try to get them to point it towards the newest repo, which is here:
https://github.com/gamecredits-project/GameCredits
Sorry about the confusion.

ok... but now i have a new error....
i use CentOS and the makefile.unix is missing.
and with autogen.sh and configure i become the error
Code:
configure: error: libdb_cxx headers missing
But i have it on my system.
Code:
locate libdb_cxx
/usr/lib64/libdb_cxx-4.7.so
/usr/lib64/libdb_cxx.so
You need bitcoin ppa, and llibdb 4.8. Just like Bitcoin core. Wait, Centos... Not familiar, but it's RPM based, right? Not sure the procedure for adding the bitcoin version of Berkeley db to that. Anyone else can help the man out?

look at the version number. If it's older than .9.4.3, it will not connect to the current client. This is by design, as the older clients had serious problems AND the difficulty algorithm was changed from KGW to Earthcoin's algo.
If the version number is correct, then it is likely either on a corrupt chain or simply connectivity issues.
Thats from the official github page....

Which page? Since the takeover, there have been a few people working on it, and we're still consolidating. But that is two major revisions and one hard fork behind. I will get it corrected if it's on one of the pages we control, and try to if it isn't.
Could someone please post their getpeerinfo - my wallet only has one connection 
sure thing

True. Result of being in a hurry
When I have more time, I'll clean it up to just have the nodes addnode=5.196.20.189:40002
