V0.4.0 (previously v0.3.1) Plan

[quote=“MUTO, post:20, topic:1829”]Tested the windows QT. Seems to run smoothly.

Thanks Fuzzy for looking into the logos. It is very important that we get the logos implemented before official release of 0.3.1

One more thing to clean up:

@“Recieve coins” there is a sentence:

These are you [b]Bitcoin[/b] adresses for receiving payments
[/quote] Logos I have now updated :) I'll update that sentence as well good spot, keep them coming, the more we iron out the better. I'll release another updated binary this evening with all these changes. Fuzzybear

Two (may be only one change) more points to be changed.

The wallet is named PPcoin Wallet , should be Peercoin Wallet

Settings Options -> Start PPcoin at system start, should be “Peercoin” + wallet (my personal oppinion)

sweet got both of these changes done :slight_smile:
ok quite a few changes now so I should really publish the binary and wait for more feedback off that.
Fuzzybear

Looking forward to the binary. Keep up the good work :slight_smile:

Not quite clear to me, what does one have to do to unlock the wallet now?

Also, can we get a list of “Things to know about v0.3.1” for the announcement when it is officially released?

Hey all new day new binary :stuck_out_tongue: they can come quick and fast in this thread while we iron out the changes and yes i’ll make a thread and official announcment with all the features and what not… we need a guide like you are a new user coming to the wallet for the first time… so if someone wants to start outlining that please feel free as We want to make the most of the new builds and client updates

anyway enough chit chat here is the link for the latest Windows Qt Peercoin 0.3.1.1 client

http://builds.peercointalk.org/Builds/WinQt-0.3.1.1.zip

I am making a page for all the builds to be kept on so people can see history of versions and I will put up the mac builds and linux ones once they are there as well.

but yeah another service added to the peercointalk brand :slight_smile:

http://builds.peercointalk.org

[size=12pt]About the new build changes[/size]

Ok so there should be no reference in english to bitcoin anywhere in the Qt client now :slight_smile: or BTC or wallet address examples that start with 1 etc so if you see any please let me know

Most if not all references of ppcoin have been updated to peercoin (I have left in the name of the conf file as being ppcoin and that is the directory the blockchain and wallet are still stored in) I would like confirmation from Sunny that we are happy to change all references of ppcoin to peercoin, but if there is any visible text on the client it should read Peercoin now (again please let me know if there are any you spot)

Finally the logos…

Can’t wait for your comments :stuck_out_tongue:
As a developer even I know there needs to be transparent backgrounds… i have failed to get them in this build… sorry about that, but i can do another … just need to have a go at making the logos again… my skills lie with code not with photoshop so if someone wants to make the new files please do here are the ones that need changing

any other feedback please let me know

Enjoy :smiley:

Hi Fuzzy

thanks for the update. But atleast in the German version some points are still not changed.

Name of the window is still ppcoin. The backround of the logo should be transparent (photoshop anyone?)

name in the startup option is still ppcoin
Option for fee should be removed

Keep up the good work, looking forward to the next build

Muto

Edit:

The startup logo should also be changed (still the old logo). But this is not a trivial task. Someone with good photoshop skills has to step in here

Edit2:

Found one more bitcoin in the console:

great feedback MUTO ty yeah on all versions those changes do not look to have happened… let me give it another go… and yeah initial splash logo needs photoshopper pls!!

Just a really small cosmetic issue: “Send coins” and “Receive coins” should be replaced by “Send Coins” and “Receive Coins” or even better: “Send Peercoins” and “Receive Peercoins”. Wallet already feels a lot more peercoinish! :slight_smile:

Wow, you are fast :slight_smile:

Confirmed for the name of the window and the startup option

Console still says

Welcome to the Bitcoin RPC console.

Aim to please :slight_smile: and want to get the wallet and sourcecode to reflect the advancements we have made on the websites exchanges and merchants

Console still says
Welcome to the Bitcoin RPC console.
got it :) will be in next build

v0.3.1.2

Help -> “About PPCoin-Qt” should change to “About Peercoin-Qt”.

Thanks.

I’ve created an alternative icon set for the 0.3.0 client a few weeks ago. Please have a look if it might be possible to use some of these icons in future releases.

For security consideration, is there any other method to enter passphrase to PoS minting? It’s not so secure to type direct passphrase in the debug window.

Agree, best to copy/paste it from e.g. tool like Lastpass or other encrypted password vault.
Or use yubikey

Awesome yes I thought someone had done this but I could not remember or find your thread so thank you, i’ll be having a look and see if I can pull these in :slight_smile:

Well the program is called ppcoin-qt.exe, “About PPCoin-Qt” is correct. Or it’s better to also change the program name, and the installation and %appdata% directories, the “ppcoin.cfg” … all to peercoin-something.

I also thought about that, but then the wallet.dat, the config, etc has to be moved.

-> Not so trivial

will this 3.0.1 work with stratum? or this should be done in 4.0 update?
thank you

p.s. or maybe someone can point in the right direction how to make it work now: ppc + stratum-mining
