Genoil's ZEC Miner

DO I JUST CPOY AND PASTE THAT AFOR A BAT FILE

never mind did exactly that, do i need to delete the original bat file that started genoil? its running perfectly fine now, just want to make sure

No need to delete the original as this .bat doesn’t use it. You can change the time and such by seconds to meet the time you want it to restart. Some people have issues of crashes more than others. I actually have different times on different computers depending on how often the miner crashes.

cheers mate that helps alot :slight_smile:

nanopool has a genoil verison 2 is it any btter?

Hi Genoil - thanks for giving us a chance for an early start.

I am running Win10 and getting this error:

error: clGetDeviceIDs

I tried to read up on it (not a programmer) and it seems to be an OpenCL issue.
Have the latest AMD Radeon driver I believe - 16.10.3. I have an RX 480 and R9 290X installed and looking good in device manger.
I am using the following for a bat file -

genoil.exe -c stratum+tcp://zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -u username.worker -p z -P 0 -g 0 1 -i 13

Any thoughts on what my next step should be?

Genoil I think people are just excited with the launch. Take care of yourself and your family. If you have free time to make imporovements and share great if not great.

One should employ the following method in conjunction with your script. That will allow user to disable the popup message reporting that genoil has crashed:

Got the SilentArmy kernels in my 0.4 release. For those of you that don’t crash, have fun with it!

Two instances doesn’t work on Windows, two threads (-k zec zec) alos not very good. But on a single instance, I get 25+ Sol/s on an RX470 and 32 on a Fury.

Next priority is stability issues :slight_smile:

How to enable multiple GPU’s ? It’s detecting only one. Thanks, you are awesome. Is your kid feeling better ?

it should detect them all automatically. you can use the -g flag to specify which ones you want ot use, like -g 0 2

Started to hash like crazy (35 sol/s on my rx470) but now its only throwing invalid equihash solutions

It crashes when I specify -g flag - doesn’t crash when I don’t. Fresh install of Windows 10 pro. What driver do you think I should try ? There are 5x RX470s in that system.

Reverted my card to stock settings and now it seems to run fine , so far no crash and these hashrates… superior :slight_smile:

Windows 8.1 x64 16.10.1 driver
4x 7950

every genoil zec miner just flash for 3ms, no error no nothing, like its not even windows executable…

Still looks fine on two older machines which were gaming machines before.

But on my new mining rigs (fresh windows 7) it instantly crashes will try to figure out the differences between the machines and see if some installation is missing.

470 8Gb speed please (in 2 instance)

4 or 8gb?
20 blablabla

I heard this may only be compatible with 4gb cards and up. My 3gb card r9280x does the same thing.

Launching two exes on windows results in very low speeds. Running two miner threads (-k zec zec) results in same or worse performance as single thread (-k zec). Could be driver difference between Win and Linux or something in my code.
