  • Plotters for K33 ?????
    1 project | /r/chia | 26 May 2023
    The original Madmax plotter supports both K33 and K34, https://github.com/madMAx43v3r/chia-plotter
  • How to plot just in RAM
    2 projects | /r/chia | 9 Mar 2023
    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
  • How long does it take to make a plot?
    1 project | /r/chia | 19 Feb 2023
    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).

  • Reverse engineering the plotting process
    3 projects | /r/chia | 20 Oct 2022
    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
  • How to fix MadMAx Plotter not installed error
    5 projects | /r/chia | 7 Sep 2022
    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).
  • Will Chia plotting destroy my NVMe SSD!? Understanding SSD endurance (TBW)
    2 projects | /r/chia | 2 Apr 2022
    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
  • GUI AND maDMAX
    1 project | /r/chia | 2 Feb 2022
    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.
  • How to plot without Chia Application?
    2 projects | /r/chia | 15 Dec 2021
    You can install madmax directly (or use the compiled windows binary). Disclaimer: neither are officially endorsed but I've used them with no issues.
