farmr VS chia-plotter

They are referring to farmr which is a 3rd party web dashboard for monitoring your farm.

There is also https://github.com/gilnobrega/farmr which is discord based. Though I assume you'd be sketched out with that as well.

Check Farmr

As for the notification system that tells you ohni time if you have won a block (it does it through Discord) you can use Farmr and this is the link: Website: https://farmr.net/ Program For Notification: https://github.com/joaquimguimaraes/farmr

Hey, that definitely sounds like something's wrong. If you'd be interested in debugging, could you check: (1) whether the farming destination address is the receive address of your wallet? If you created a new key when you first started Flax, it defaults to the receive address of that new wallet. You can check whether that address on the explorer https://flaxexplorer.org/. (2) if you are using NFT plots -- need to be on 0.1.1 or above, and (3) if you are using a tool like Farmr https://github.com/joaquimguimaraes/farmr, it can show effort and other statistics like proof times, and whether proofs are getting found but not blocks (which would mean a network problem).

It is possible that your peers happen to be "far away" from the timelords, and connecting to the official nodes should prevent that. I recommend using Farmr (https://github.com/joaquimguimaraes/farmr) or flaxharvestgraph to monitor proofs.

The original Madmax plotter supports both K33 and K34, https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter

I didn’t use madmax for like 8 months so I don’t remember, but checkout the default number here https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter The thread number is depending on how many thread your cpu got. I think the more thread is better. Try to put thread = 36 and buckets = 256

I would suggest canceling and plotting with the Chia POS plotter. For testing, the Chia POS plotter should be fast enough. The madMAx plotter is generally faster but it has had issues plotting from the Chia Network client in the past. If you want to use the madMAx plotter, I would suggest using the standalone version directly from madMAx's github (which has a link to the github that does windows compiles in the install directions).

git clone https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter.git

No need to reverse engineer anything. It's explained in all the detail you need in the Chia Proof of Space Construction document. It's implemented in chiapos though I find madmax's implementation of the plotter to be easier to read: https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter/tree/master/include/chia

The article you mentioned said that all the questions about the madmax plotter has to updated on its official GitHub repo, https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter, so I made a copy of the same complained and updated it onto the official madmax plotter repo (and the link was given by the official chia repo).

Yes, see https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter for plotting with a ramdisk and https://github.com/ericaltendorf/plotman to automate everything.

The OP can try using the non-packaged version https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter

You can get around this by using the standalone version of madmax or setting your temp directory as your final directory and using a script to monitor and move .plot files to your final directory.

You can install madmax directly (or use the compiled windows binary). Disclaimer: neither are officially endorsed but I've used them with no issues.
