v1.5.0.0

Changes

Bugs

• [Windows] Fixed affinity issue when canceling a benchmark when testing below physical core count

General

• Added wrap around to most menus
• Added pool command line argument

Staking

• Added support for new boost system
• Removed live viewing and historical for now

Hashing

• Modified Native AVX2 hashing to take full advantage of threads given
• • Will cause issues when paired with GPU mining, and will need to manually reduce total threads for the GPU
• Added a full AVX512 implementation for supported CPUs
• • Zen4/Zen5 AMD CPUs should have a large performance increase (7950x is ~16.5KH/s)
• • Intel CPUs that support AVX512 may not see a large performance increase
• • • Future plans for a hasher that works better for Intel

GPU

• Fixed bug with 4090 release builds giving lower than expected hashrate

v1.4.0.0

Changes

Bugs

• [Windows] Fixed affinity issue causing lower performance when mining compared to benchmark

Settings

Added "Minimum Hashing Time" to CPU settings

• If overall CPU usage is low, increasing this can help
• High core count CPUs benefit greatly at a value of 3

QoL changes to setup

• Modified setup to auto select current GPUs
• Ability to return to GPU implementation from GPU selection menu
• Added previous option to pool selection

Features

Added command line options

• ./Build/OrionClient help to view commands

New module "Ore Staking"

• Shows current staking information
• • Additional info compared from ore-cli: USD values, relative yield, pending rewards, and next checkpoint time
• "Live View" will show pending rewards as you get them (only boosts you have stake in)
• • Default RPC is a hit or miss for this working
• "Historical" will pull historical global reward data (default: 7 days) to view daily/hour rewards
• • Default RPC will not work due to heavy rate limits. Credit usage estimates are given for Helius and Quicknode

[WIP] Added ability to push events to an external server

• Events are only covered for mining
• • Start, pause, new challenge, hashrate update, submission result

Pools

• Improved readability of Excalivator pool rewards

v1.3.1.1

Changes

GPU

• Fixed invalid solutions appearing & crashes for cuda devices

v1.3.1.0

Changes

Pool

• Fixed Excalivator pool issues (mining/claiming)
• Added ability to use a public key only when mining on Excalivator pool
• Displays claim options for pool regardless of unclaimed amount

Crashes/Performance

• Fixed high core count CPUs crashing
• Fixed performance issues for multi-gpu setups

v1.3.0.1

Changes

Bugs

• Fixed Directory Not Found crash during setup

v1.3.0.0

Changes

Features

• Added a vanity wallet finder
• Added a setting to enable experimental hashers
• • Only contains an OpenCL implementation that will produce some errors
• Added WSL support for GPU hasher
• Renamed Coal Pool to Excalivator Pool
• • Coal Pool users will have to set their pool again under Configure Settings

Bugs Fixes

• Fixed update checking issue with standalone versions
• Fixed error when setting thread count to 0

v1.2.0.0

Changes

UI

• Fixed issue with multiple GPUs showing an invalid "avg. hashrate" when mining
• Display version information on main menu
• Better error messages when a hasher fails to initialize
• Basic update check

Pools

• Updated Shinyst coal pool for ore support

Modules

• New setting module to change settings that are not in the setup
• • Selecting GPU devices and setting up wallet information not implemented

Hashers

• Small optimizations to baseline GPU hasher
• • Modifying "Block Size" in GPU settings may give small speed improvements
• Added a 4090 optimized hasher (~28KH/s)

v1.1.3.1

Notes

• Improved performance with lower block sizes
• New manual setting MaxGPUBlockSize
• New manual setting ProgramGenerationThreads
• • Changes how many threads to use for generation program instructions. If avg. hashrate is red, increasing this number can help

v1.1.3.0

Bugs

• Fixed error with low RAM GPUs
• Attempted fix for GPUs improperly mining over time
• Attempted fix for failing to find stake information constructor

v1.1.2.0

Fixes

• Fixed issue with linux GPU hashing
