vrsc-hellminer-launcher

A simple batch script that makes it easy to run the miner on a computer for everyday use.

Was created with the thought of running hellminer, but it is possible to run a different miner, for mine cryptocurrency other than VRSC, or even run a GPU based miner after proper configuration.

Additionally - it was created for my personal needs, but I am making it available because it can also be useful to someone.

What is it for?

It is a batch script that can be added to the autostart folder to easily automate the launch of the miner along with the system startup

• When the computer is started only to mine - after a set time, the miner will be started with the default option (e. g. on all processor threads)

• However, if you want to use your computer while mining, for a set amount of time you have the option to choose how many threads to start mining on - making your computer more responsive, able to use (it happens after pressing the appropriate button)

How does it work? - presentation

10 threads launched after pressing '2' on the keyboard

12 threads launched when the countdown was done

Configuration

You need to edit the .bat file to assign your values to the appropriate variables.

1. Set the seconds after which the miner will run with the default settings:

   set /a countdown=20
   

2. Enter the folder location of the miner executable:

   set "location=C:\Users\User\Desktop\folder"
   

3. Paste your miner config (without the --cpu parameter). Example:

   set "config=hellminer.exe -c stratum+tcp://eu.luckpool.net:3956#xnsub -u RB7sFYVzfGSnFNcq255u7sCywvaiDRxcJh.worker -p x"
   

4. Set the number of threads you want to run when the specific button is pressed:

   set "if_1=8"
   set "if_2=10"
   set "if_3=12"
   

5. Set the number of threads to run when the countdown is over:

   set "threads=12"
   

You can also add more miner startup options by adding them like the 3 I did.

Running

1. Manually - just start the .bat file.

2. If you want to launch it with every system startup - you need to add it to the autostart folder:

   
   The Windows + R will show you the "RUN" box where you can type shell:startup and the autostart folder will open. Here you can place the .bat file.
