[AMD & nVidia] How to mine Innova (INN) ?

[phm87]

What is Innova ?

INNOVA is an innovative and adaptive new age cryptocurrency available to everyone. It is going to take the lead in cryptocurrency progress and diversity, because it is easy to use and it has the most secure and developing program.
With this mission statement we want to show what a humble community can do, and that anything is possible.

How to mine Innova on a mining pool ?

1. Create a wallet address
You'll need a wallet address to receive the Innova coins mined. It is better to download the wallet according to your Operating System. There is another crappy quick & dirty method that we don't recommend: create a wallet address on an exchange but some exchange diagree and may lost some coins.

Please refer to the Download section of the official bitcointalk thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2291517.0


[nVidia] 2. Miner for nVidia cards (neoscrypt)
For nVidia cards, we suggest you to use  CCminer 2.2.2 : https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases
For GTX 1080/1080 Ti, ccminer will work but hashrate may be increased with https://github.com/alexis78/ccminer

For AMD cards, see here below.

Remark: some anti-virus and anti-malware may detect the miner as a virus. It is due to the fact that miners were integrated in malwares and virusses so some anti-virus detect the miner as a potentially dangerous component. We use these binaries since years: we've never encounter problems because we avoid to download any binaries and always use the offial binary release on bitcointalk or github.

[nVidia] 3. Configure ccminer batch file and launch it
3.1 Create a new launch file ("mine INN on unimining.bat" using notepad or notepad++ under windows) and paste the following command into it:

ccminer-x64 -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://neoscrypt.eu1.unimining.net:4235 -u iH1acfqaXr7TiRGgAWjq7mGvVcKv1Hmjdo -p c=INN --cpu-priority=3

Please note the following arguments to the miner ccminer (64 bits version for my OS):
-a neoscrypt : set the algorithm
-o stratum+tcp://neoscrypt.eu1.unimining.net:4235 : set the mining pool URL and stratum port (4235 dedicated for INN)
-u iH1acfqaXr7TiRGgAWjq7mGvVcKv1Hmjdo : wallet address used as username. Please remove this example address and write your own address created at step 1
-p c=INN : optional (password) parameters. -p is used to give the password related to the username. As mining is anonymous, the password is used to pass optional arguments. c=INN is used to force YiiMP to mine Innova (INN is the symbol defined on the pool for Innova) : YiiMP should detect the crypto-currency mined according to the wallet address but as coins are forks of other coins (and some don't adapt address' code), it doesn't always work as expected. So we recommand to always set the coin with at least the optional parameter c (ex: c=INN).. stats is used to perform a benchmark of your GPU (first GPU on multi-GPU) on the 50st share. To add several parameter, seperate them by commas, e.g. -p c=INN,stats to set the coin as Innova and perform benchmark
--cpu-priority=3 : parameter used to set the cpu priority.
3.2 Launch the *.bat file and check wallets' page after 5 to 10 minutes.


[AMD] 2. Miner for AMD cards (neoscrypt)
For AMD cards, you can download Gateless Gate according to your Operating System:
Gateless Gate: https://github.com/zawawawa/gatelessgate/releases/
Only windows binaries are provided, you can download the source code and compile it if your OS is not Windows.

I also updated my AMD graphic cards drivers to "Crimson ReLive Edition 17.10.1 10/10/2017" but I didn't install the ReLive part.


[AMD] 3. Configure Gateless Gate config and batch files and launch it
3.1 Create a new launch file ("mine INN on unimining.bat" using notepad or notepad++ under windows) and paste the following command into it:

@echo off
set GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 1
set GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
set GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
set GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
set GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
gatelessgate.exe --gpu-platform 1 --default-config gatelessgate-INN.conf
pause

3.2 Create a new conf file ("gatelessgate-INN.conf" using notepad or notepad++ under windows) and paste the following command into it:

{
"algorithm": "neoscrypt",
"intensity": "13",
"worksize": "256",
"gpu-threads": "1",
"load-balance": true,

"auto-fan": true,
"temp-cutoff": "90",
"temp-overheat": "85",
"temp-target": "75",

"pools": [
{
"name": "MAIN",
"user": "iH1acfqaXr7TiRGgAWjq7mGvVcKv1Hmjdo",
"pass": "c=INN",
"quota": "99;stratum+tcp://neoscrypt.eu1.unimining.net:4235"
},
{
"__comment": "Please keep this entry. Otherwise, I won't be able to continue open-source development. - zawawa",
"name":"DEVFEE",
"user": "zawawa.gatelessgate",
"pass": "x",
"quota": "1;s1.theblocksfactory.com:3333"
}
]
}

Please note the following parameters in the conf file:
"algorithm": "neoscrypt" : set the algorithm
"quota": "99;stratum+tcp://neoscrypt.eu1.unimining.net:4235 " : set the mining pool URL and stratum port (4235 dedicated INN)
"user": "iH1acfqaXr7TiRGgAWjq7mGvVcKv1Hmjdo" : wallet address used as username. Please remove this example address and write your own address created at step 1
"pass": "c=INN" : optional (password) parameters. -p is used to give the password related to the username. As mining is anonymous, the password is used to pass optional arguments. c=INN is used to force YiiMP to mine Innova (INN is the symbol defined on the pool for Innova) : YiiMP should detect the crypto-currency mined according to the wallet address but as coins are forks of other coins (and some don't adapt address' code), it doesn't always work as expected. So we recommand to always set the coin with at least the optional parameter c (ex: c=INN).. stats is used to perform a benchmark of your GPU (first GPU on multi-GPU) on the 50st share. To add several parameter, seperate them by commas, e.g. -p c=INN,stats to set the coin as Innova and perform benchmark (remark: stats should work with yiimp but I didn't test it with Gatelessgate).

Remark: Both files should be inside the directory of Gatelessgate.

3.3. Launch the *.bat file and check wallets' page after 5 to 10 minutes.

I did everything according to the manual for starting the miner, but it will not start. if you can write you config and batch file, I try to run with your parameters.
we are talking about amd cards 380, 390 ...

[untexas]

hi,

how do you run the *.bat file?

Hi miners,

We have opened a Dedicated Port 4235 only for Innova. More information : Stratum port 4235 dedicated to Innova coin (INN)

Can you try with this new configuration :

Code: Select all

ccminer-x64 -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:4235 -u Your_INNOVA_Wallet_Address -p c=INN

Hi,


You can copy paste the example configuration for AMD cards, if you have several cards on your system, some parameters may be changed otherwize, only one card may work. Please don't forget to update your AMD miner as explained in the first message. Gateless gate worked fine on a RX470 but it should also work on your cards. Other miners had good experience with NSGMiner to mine neoscrypt coins with AMD cards.

Can you show me the error you obtained with Gateless Gate and give me more details about your configuration ?

Thank you,


Have a nice mining!

Hi,


On windows, you can run a *.bat file by double-clicking on it, it is the same action as you do to launch an application or a shortcut. You can also select the *.bat file by clicking on it then press Enter key on the keyboard.


Have a nice mining!

Stratum has been restarted. In this case, you can see duplicated miner for 2-3 minutes.
