Hi there,

Can it be used for mining Magi (XMG) Coins?

Regards

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

There are forks that support the magi protocol (M7M)

beicnet commented 6 years ago

@DarrenRainey Can you maybe give some link for it, if you know any? (I wan't those green yay text)

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

Here : https://github.com/tkinjo1985/cpuminer-multi/tree/m7m use the m7m branch

beicnet commented 6 years ago

Thank you @DarrenRainey :wink:

beicnet commented 6 years ago

@DarrenRainey But, there is no Windows binary available for download! :disappointed:

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

You'll have to compile it yourself or I could compile it for you

beicnet commented 6 years ago

@DarrenRainey That would be really cool, because I don't use Linux and I don't know how to compile it too.

Also, can you please give me some command line example for command line usege for Magi (M7M) after you compile it?

Thank you for your time! :wink:

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

sure just give me a few hours and ill send you a link to the download and some instructions

beicnet commented 6 years ago

No problem, thank you again for your time! :+1:

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

also just wondering what version of windows are you running

beicnet commented 6 years ago

Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601 64-bit Edition

CPU: Intel Core i3-2120 3.30GHz

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

Ok I should have a binary ready soon

beicnet commented 6 years ago

Excellent!

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

Here you go : https://transfer.sh/Rdlpg/m7m-miner.exe you might get an anti virus warning this is normal as most miners get flagged by AV

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

you can get help by running m7m-miner.exe --help or run this command replacing with your info : m7m-miner.exe -o stratum+tcp://[POOL] -u [USER] -p [PASSWORD]

beicnet commented 6 years ago

Okay, but tell me, why m7m-miner.exe extracting to the users temp folder two aditional exe files miner.exe and m-minerd.exe?! Also the command line arguments are not working on m7m-miner.exe...it's good that I'm using SandBox...

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

hmm werid ill try using the release branch as I was compiling from the dev version

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

Here try this version : https://transfer.sh/mjFEm/m7m-miner.exe

beicnet commented 6 years ago

I think it's working now, but there is no green text as for the (yay!!!), can you implement it or it's beyond your skill?

Kind regards

beicnet commented 6 years ago

I wish to look something like this:

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

I could implement it but its not really worth it as it still tells you if it was accepted anyway just without the colour and yay

beicnet commented 6 years ago

The yay is there, but I can't see it from 3 meters behind me. Just noticed that the -e switch is not have any affect if it's set, always working at 100%

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

if you want to reduce the cpu load use -t for threads

beicnet commented 6 years ago

So, in that case in my example it will use 2 cores from 4 cores, correct?

DarrenRainey commented 6 years ago

yeah if you use -t 2 it will basically run with 2 cores
