VanGogh Gaming's TinyMiner & TinyMinerPlus - Tutorial Page!
Updated for the latest Eve Online expansions and patches up to Viridian, December 2024 release!

Pro TIP: create a new profile for your mining character in the Eve Online Launcher and use that solely for mining with TinyMiner and you'll never have to change your mining settings ever again! Then you can simply mirror ALL the game settings from the next screenshots EXACTLY as shown in this tutorial and you'll be up and running in no time at all with TinyMiner mining like a champ as most of our pilots are fond of saying!

TinyMiner runs perfectly on all versions of Windows (7, 8.1, 10 and 11) and on all desktop themes (Classic, Basic, Aero, Metro). It also works with all desktop resolutions (minimum 1024x768) so that even your old laptop can run it flawlessly! TinyMiner is digitally signed to ensure its authenticity and the peace of mind knowing that you are running a safe application! Other fly-by-night Eve Mining Bots ask their users to disable the UAC (User Account Control) in order to even work! The UAC is a very important part of Windows and it helps to protect your PC so it should Never be turned off!

This tutorial page is all about setting up your EVE Online so that TinyMiner can mine like a champ! For a comprehensive description of all TinyMiner features and capabilities and all options included please visit the Features and Settings Overview pages!
