Helou,

Could someone give some coding support for vanitygen (oclvanitygen)?
I'm using oclvanitygen (GPU) with Linux and I could compile a new version from source code.

So I need some advices for my "problem".
When oclvanitygen found ex "1GeGeA" pattern with -k option (Keep pattern and continue search after finding a match), now it's generate a new random seed and start again from different point.
I need to modify the source code that way, when it found a pattern, it does not generate a random seed value, only increase X value amount to "secret exponent value". So the starting point is quite near the previous one (diff X).

example:
Difficulty: 259627881
Pattern: 1GeGeA                                                               
Address: 1GeGeAAzBwzcPpCiMdGSURUBxLdSW3PFV3
Privkey: 5JpiwYTQZmKCtfumGP1wsZuZdfEvEBqSiEojSHh6QUPdM1a1pgV

This Privkey is hex and dec (=secret exponent):
84b05b4fff33236fe6f1e8d886d94fd8f4498d71ea0420d1902c90d9bf246bd5
60016891312021175057331173446731109351198050644514140408495846939253006429141

If X value is 12345678, next starting point is:
60016891312021175057331173446731109351198050644514140408495846939253018774819
Address: 1FwwNCewMPk8RsnzA528QSse3NjXuV6745
Privkey: 5JpiwYTQZmKCtfumGP1wsZuZdfEvEBqSiEojSHh6QbXg96Bfepr

Could someone please give piece of code for me? I'm quite noob to code.
I have look the source code, but it's quite difficult to understand.

Thank you very much!

for an arbitrary altcoin, how do i determine the -X value (address family, eg: dogecoin is value 30)
to use in vanitygen ?
is there a standard place in the coin's source code?

thanks!

You have to make sure that oclvanitygen is being run with its folder as the 'working directory'.  It's best to open a command line window (cmd), make sure you're in the vanitygen folder ('cd' on over if needed), and then run it any prepared batch file you made.
If you're using a desktop shortcut, right-click it, choose properties, and make sure that the "Start in" field has the vanitygen folder.

If you need further assistance on this, detail exactly how and what you run so we can give a more targeted approach

Hi,
How can i "loop" the generator so he can create more and more addresses for me when he finished the first one? instead of checking the machine each hour/day to see if its over and then press "enter" again..

Tnx!

great,tnx
where the txt is saved?

If vanitygen.exe is on your path and your current directory isn't the dir where vanitygen.exe is located, then the file will be saved to the current directory instead.

And then they try to use oclvanitygen and have to jump through further hoops to avoid calc_addrs.cl not being found (see further up).  I'd personally just as soon discourage running any flavor of vanitygen outside of its own directory.

Ain't that the truth
