VERSION HISTORY v9.7 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - reduced devfee, it's 2% now if you use secure SSL/TLS connection, currently miningpoolhub pool supports encrypted connections, see Readme for samples. - added "allpools" option, use it if your pool requires Username.Worker instead of wallet address, or if you mine some fork of Monero. - now all options can be stored in "config.txt" file. - changed format of "pools.txt", now you can specify own settings for every failover pool. Since format was changed, failover pools file was renamed to "epools.txt". - now "r" key reloads failover pools file, "s" shows current statistics, with digit keys you can disable/enable GPUs. - improved support for EthMan, now all commands are supported. - now remote management is working in read-only mode by default. - added SSL/TLS encryption support for better security, see "-o" option description in Readme file for details. - improved "-tt" and "-r" options. - added "-fanmin", "-fanmax", "-tstop", "-powlim", "-cvddc", "-mvddc" options. - added HTTP support for remote port. - added "-retrydelay" option. - added "-ftime" option. - a lot of minor improvements. v9.6 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added remote monitoring, see "-mport" option and "Remote manager" folder. Note that only remote monitoring is supported, other commands in EthMan don't work. - Added temperature management for 4xx cards. - Added coloring, see "-colors" option. v9.5 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added Nicehash pool support. v9.4 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added Fury and RX480 card native support. v9.3 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added GPU overclocking support. v9.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved stability in some cases. - Added 285 card native support. v9.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved pool-related routines: less disconnects, more hashrate on some pools. - Fixed issue with some old 6xxx/5xxx cards ("lowDifficultShare" error). v9.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved speed by 5-15%, depends on card: About 810 h/s on stock 290X (Hynix memory). About 710 h/s on stock 290X (Elpida memory). About 690 h/s on stock 290 (Elpida memory). About 550 h/s on stock 280X (Hynix memory). About 440 h/s on stock 270X (Elpida memory). About 410 h/s on stock 270 (Elpida memory). - Reduced dev fee, now it is 2.5%. - Improved "-li" option, Windows freezes even less. - Best "-a" and "-h" values are set automatically for 290X,290,280X,270X,270,6950_2GB cards. v8.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved speed by 2-20%, depends on card. - Added "-a 4" mode. - Added "-h" parameter and tune mode ("m" key). v7.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added Linux support. - Added GPU fan control ("-tt" option). v6.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed memory leak. v6.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved mining speed by 2-3% for all cards. - Reduced number of outdated shares dramatically. - Improved "-a" option, now you can specify mining mode for every card separately. - Fixed bug with Stratum support for Minergate pool. v5.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added Dashcoin, OEC, MCN and ORION support. v5.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - +50% speedup for 6xxx cards, use "-a 3" mode. - Improved autoselection for "-a" mode. - Added "-li" option for low intensity mode. - Added Dashcoin support. - Added auto-restarting miner when GPU thread does not respond. v4.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added "-nofee" option. v4.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added "-r" option, now miner can restart itself automatically if GPU failed, also now miner can be restarted periodically, no additional scripts required. - Reduced intensity dramatically, now Windows almost does not freeze when miner is working. It can also improve stability. - Fixed some minor bugs. v4.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved mining speed by 2-4% for weak/old cards. - Two builds: for Catalyst 13.12 and for Catalyst 14.6. - Added "-a" option to select mining mode. - Added warning message if some GPU thread hangs (use "-wd 1" to close miner automatically). v3.4 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Now every pool has 3 connection attempts before miner will switch to different pool. It prevents miner from disconnection from your main pool if this pool has to be restarted. v3.3 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved mining speed by 2-5% for all cards. - Improved stability. v3.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added minergate pool support. - Added "main pool" - miner will try to use main pool every 30 minutes. - "pools.txt" file - now you can specify login and password for every pool. - current pool address is displayed for every new job. v3.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Reduced power consumption. v3.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved mining speed by about 20% for all cards. - Improved stability. - Fixed some bugs. v2.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed bugs. v2.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Reduced number of outdated shares that miner sends to pool. - Added fail-over feature, "pools.txt" file. - Added watchdog for pool, if no new jobs are received for 20 minutes - disconnect. - Added "-ee" option to close miner if no more pools are available in the list. - Added "-wd" option to close miner if some thread hangs. v2.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Improved mining speed by about 12% for all cards. - Added Aeon and Duck coins. - Fixed some bugs. v1.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed bug for pools that use variable targets for shares. - Fixed some bugs in Stratum code. v1.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added Stratum protocol support. v1.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - First version.
