New Software- IdleMiner

[idleminer]

Does 1.34 work better for you?

[bingobazza]

Im having a problem with mine after using it well for a couple of days. each time I try to open it, it tells me that there is a new version for download. I download the new version but continually get told there is a new version each time I try to open it. Im using version 1.34. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled it, but that doesnt seem to get me out of this loop. Any suggestions?

If you're still stuck in the loop that means you're not uninstalling correctly. Are you using the control panel add/remove programs to remove idleminer, then verifying that it is gone? Also make sure you reinstall from the latest setup files which you can get from www.idleminer.com - if you use old setup files that will definately cause that problem to occur.

So I thought I'd get in on the fun. And dowloaded and istalled today. Ran the program and set it to mine a seleected limit. Then press start and nothing happens. The start button turns grey for a few seconds before turning black again is all. Vs 1.34. This was when I had the Auto Start PT ticked.

When I untick "Auto Start PT" it starts up the Party client, but then I get a "IdleMiner has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." Blah blah send Microsoft error report.

What version of windows do you run? Can you e-mail your log.txt file which will be in the IM install location, and c:\services.txt to [email protected]

Same here. I uninstalled and installed again and i get the same crash. I run Windows XP Pro (all updates) and the latest version of Idleminer (1.34). Here is the log :

Hello and thanks again for your work on this program. It's shaping up to be a very powerful program.

I wanted to revisit one suggestion. I can see how you've added an option where we can specify the number of tables we want to mine at a certain limit. This is an improvement, but it still doesn't quite make it the "set it and forget it" type of program I believe you are striving to create.

The problem is certain limits (ie high stakes games) and even games altogether like Omaha and Stud may only have one or two tables running at any given point. Some limits may be completely empty at certain times of the day. This is why it would be so much more helpful to have your 'Auto' selector attempt to mine the maximum number of tables possible, up to the table maximum we select, before moving to the next limit.

If this feature were added, it would keep us from having to keep checking each table limit in order to make sure there are enough available tables to mine. The program would do it for us automatically.

Finally, I'm getting crashes in idleminer.exe at Offset: 00009c17 with the latest update. It seems to happen following login and right around the point where it starts looking for tables to mine. I'll email you the log file if you wish.

I upgraded to 1.34 and it still shoots out the same error as the other guy described.

I agree with kidpokeher.

We need an option where there is a priority set to each limit. For example open all available tables at limit x. When no more tables are abailable then open all available tables at limit y and so on.

Also v1.34 is working flawless for me.

I am getting the same error with the new upgrade. PT and Party open up, log in takes place, but then when the table selection starts, the program crashes with an option to send an error report to Microsoft. Previous versions have worked beautifully.
