I am looking to get a customized version of CGMiner 3.7.2 built from source which you can find here: [login to view URL] You must use this exact version as it is the last fork that supports scrypt based GPU mining. The full instructions for building this from source on Windows is included in the file [login to view URL] that is included in the source or I included it here as well. The instructions was written by the software author for version 2.1.2 and as such is outdated and doesn't work exactly as specified. I need someone to assist me in building the code on a fresh formatted Windows 7 32-bit installation. You can modify the original windows instructions such that they work for this version or make a new text file to explain how to do it. I also need to do a small update in that I need the final binary ([login to view URL]) to contain a hardcoded list of parameters, only if parameters are not provided on the command line. In other words if executed just as "[login to view URL]", you will automatically use parameters that we define in the source code. If parameters are defined in the command line, use those instead. You must hardcode it within the binary, you cannot use a batch file or make a wrapper to pass the parameters. To do this project, you should have a Windows 7 (preferred) or 8 platform, 32-bit version. You must be familiar with MinGW, MSYS, GTK-WIN, libcurl, pkg-config. This project should not take more than 1-2 hours as this is an open-source program that you are compiling from source, update the instructions text file and add default parameters. Thank you

Hi, I've compiled cgminer for Windows earlier this year, but I use an Ubuntu virtualbox to cross-compile instead of using MSYS. It is much simpler and faster than trying to compile natively on Windows, and the resulting executable is exactly the same as you would obtain. I have a GPU (GeForce 4000 mx) to test. Hard-coding the parameters you want is also a piece of cake. Ramiro

Hello! I've been working with C/CPP since 2008, both on Linux and Windows. I worked a lot with windows projects (Visual C++, LCC and many other compilers) and I'm currently studying computer science, so I'm absolutely sure I can handle the job. I can lower the bid amount some more if you need to, actually I want to get some good reviews on the site, that's why I'm bidding low. Best regards, looking forward to work for you
