https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter/pull/529 did get merged to master. I don't know about releases.

SebMoore commented 3 years ago

Madmax doesn't have releases - it's all self compiled, so yes - this plotter supports pool plots. You just need to delete any old versions and rebuild the plotter.

Thank you. Do I need to download the new wallet and recompile it

SebMoore commented 3 years ago

Ok. you first need to download the new Chia Blockchain from their homepage (https://www.chia.net/). This is the wallet, and also where you create the plot NFT. You don't need to compile this: they already have releases for all major operating systems. Then, you need to download and recompile the newest Madmax plotter version. The plotter is what actually makes the plots, using the addresses & keys from the Chia Blockchain. There is a guide here https://blog.pool.space/get-an-early-start-with-space-pool-mainnet-8855348826a0 and here https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/wiki/Pooling-User-Guide.

There are binaries for Windows. They are NOT updated as of this post.

Unofficial binaries, sure. Wait for stotiks to update them.

Is there a utility that would check whether a plot is pool enabled or not? Or maybe differently, whether the plot header has some "private" part that MadMax could start marking as "pool enabled" plots, so such utility would be crafted?

Would be nice to use such tool against the farm, and start slowly replotting the identified old ones.

Unfortunately no such tool exists. In the recent pooling zoom meeting, Gene recommended that you use a different directory for portable plots, since the filenames are not different or distinguishable.

I understand that such differentiation cannot be done by the file name; therefore, I asked about the plot header (maybe someone is familiar with the plot layout).

@zulrang Are you sure that stotiks' v0.1.1 port that was released about a week ago is not supporting pooling plots?

Looks like on my setup, when I create plot with "-c contract -f farmer" my self pool is seeing those plots. Although, I didn't join any external pool.

zulrang commented 3 years ago

@Jacek-ghub I've experienced the same now.

The first plot I made with it wasn't showing up properly, then after having the official plotter create a plot, it correctly shows both in my plots now. Prior to that, it wasn't showing anything under the "Pool Contract..." column but it is now.

Jacek-ghub commented 3 years ago

@zulrang good to hear.

I agree that maybe the worst part of the experience is the official Chia UI. I have just added a harvester to my setup (that creates these new pool plots), but the full node UI is just garbage. Unfortunately, it looks like other components are broken (e.g., MM plotter), where in fact it is just that Chia UI.

Just checked out latest version of this plotter today. Generated plot is reported invalid in Official Chia 1.12 (failed to open). Also, it seems much slower than before (3h11m vs 1h48m).
