- Added algo 'Xcash'
- Replaced 'Mox' algo with new 'Mox V8' algo
- Added parameter 'maxnosharesent' in cmd
- Added parameter 'randomnonce' in cmd
- Added parameter 'enablecoinforking' in cmd
- Added algo switching info in json and on html stats page
- Lot of bug fixes
+ Monero will fork to a new algo '
Cryptonight R' soon. You can use for cryptonight_type 'normalv4', 'cryptonight_r' or just 'monero'.
+ Wownero already forked to a custom version of '
Cryptonight R'
+ Xcash can be mined by using 'xcash' or 'heavyx' for cryptonight_type
+ Conceal and Zelerius will fork too
+ Mox algo is now replaced with the new Mox V8 algo, so if you want to mine it until the fork,
use previous version of SRBMiner+ There was already a built in watchdog that restarted miner if no share was sent to the pool for 20 minutes. A new parameter was added so user can set this time : --maxnosharesent
value in seconds (min. 1 min , max. 120 min)
+ Parameter --randomnonce creates totally random nonces for every gpu thread. This is like the 'i'm feeling lucky' button on Google
+ Json API and stats page now contains some info about algoswitching (if used)
+ Parameter
--enablecoinforking allows miner to switch to an algo if the fork is predefined in the miner. If enabled it will auto switch for
MONERO, CONCEAL AND ZELERIUS in this version (sorry Mox).
Don't use this parameter on a pool that does algoswitching, because it can think that wow is cn/r
How will this look for Monero fork:
start.bat.
.
.
SRBMiner-CN.exe
--enablecoinforking --config Config\config-normalv8.txt --pools pools.txt
Explained :
1. Start mining with normalv8 algo, because Monero still uses that algo
2. Add --enablecoinforking parameter so miner knows you want to use the built-in (predefined) fork informations
3. When pool sends a job for the new algo, miner will auto switch to the new algo, that
must be defined in algos.txt4. By default the new Monero algo 'normalv4' is already defined in algos.txt, so if you won't remove it everything will be fine
+ A big reorganisation happened in the miner code, so hopefully the misterious 'crashing out of nowhere' is fixed. I really hope.
Please guys who have this random crashing issue try the new version and report back.
