@JaredKaragen or anyone.
Looking at the OP it really doesn't show how to put call cpu conf ...call coin conf... call gpu conf... call emr-stak call pool so I can make a bat file for each algo without disturbing the other coins settings. Very confusing. It could have been made like ccminer so easy to use. Anyone have a nvidia bat file that does muti coins from one folder that the miner is in?
Any help plz. thx
Well, I think theres a way to specify a different file for each set of settings,
But, if I understand you correctly, you are looking to be able to call xmr-stak similarly to the way ccminer is called?
XMR-stak is a bunch different than most other miner apps in the way its configured...... I would need to figure out a LOT of this guys code locations and structures to rewrite how it works... and I am probably not gonna have that kind of time anytime soon to be frank.
The main premise that makes XMR-stak nicer than the way you launch ccminer; is:
Once you get the host machine set up, you do your first run of xmr-stak, let it take in configs/settings and bench the devices, and you simply need to only call xmr-stak.exe to launch from then on. It creates its config .txt files to suit your pools config and devices.
If you want multiple instances for multiple devices; you need multiple folders per device with a copy of the executables in each... Bench and first run each as normal; but comment out the devices in each folder's instance/config .txt to only use the devices you wish to use per-instance....
If I am totally wrong above about what you are trying to achieve, LMK... Ill do my best to help.
Thanks JaredKaragen
What I'm trying to do is have one xmr-stak folder and call from a bat. file the coin I want to mine.
But it generates the txt files for only one coin. So if I'm mining bittube ...then ok. But now I want to mine monero from that xmr-stak folder. It will overwrite the .txt folders for bittube I think.
But there is a call from a batch file like this below and I'm not sure if I can call the different algo's from a command line.
Now if I have a second bat. file like this below what would happen?
This is all I'm trying to do....but these files a regenerated or overwritten I think by xmr-stak.
Usage: xmr-stak [OPTION]...
-c, --config FILE common miner configuration file
-h, --help show this help
--noCPU disable the CPU miner backend
--cpu FILE CPU backend miner config file
--noAMD disable the AMD miner backend
--amd FILE AMD backend miner config file
The Following options temporary overwrites the config file settings:
-o, --url URL pool url and port, e.g. pool.usxmrpool.com:3333
-u, --user USERNAME pool user name or wallet address
-p, --pass PASSWD pool password, in the most cases x or empty ""
Accounting to this I should be able to do this below except for the algo.
xmr-stak -c bittube --cpu bittubecpuconf. -o pool.usxmrpool.com:3333 -u addy -p x
And name the batfile bittube and then make a shortcut to it to put in my mining coins folder.
Here is someone trying to help out too.

Usage: bittube-miner [OPTION]...

-i --httpd HTTP_PORT HTTP interface port
The following options can be used for automatic start without a guided config,
If config exists then this pool will be top priority.
-o, --url URL pool url and port, e.g. pool.usxmrpool.com:3333
-O, --tls-url URL TLS pool url and port, e.g. pool.usxmrpool.com:10443
-u, --user USERNAME pool user name or wallet address
-r, --rigid RIGID rig identifier for pool-side statistics (needs pool support)
-p, --pass PASSWD pool password, in the most cases x or empty ""
--use-nicehash the pool should run in nicehash mode
--currency NAME currency to mine
Environment variables:
XMRSTAK_NOWAIT disable the dialog `Press any key to exit.
for non UAC execution
Supported coin opitons:
- bittube

EDIT:
Just tried the calls to the conf files that were renamed and no good. I'm just going to put each coin algo in its own separate folder. Thx
I did this and it works now.
start xmr-stak --config configbittube.txt --poolconf poolmining.bit.tube.txt --cpu cpubittube.txt --nvidia nvidiabittube.txt
exit 0
