Hi Andrew,

I have followed your program for a number of years. It was and still is one of the best in terms of knocking down numbers to get better odds.

I found the manual stack approach extremely hard to follow as I did not know what figures to put into all the boxes to get weights and filters etc.

So I used the AI, and here in Canada, there is a 7/49 lottery. From this, using your program, I got a stack that gave 31 good numbers. From these numbers, when you use 'Scan previous drawing... [ More ]

Hi Developer,

I prefer a pc as the main tool, but most people these days want a quick fix and dont want to spend the time analysing the number.

I had a look at your website and your application and it looks pretty good. Have you had many success stories with it?

One particular feature was the lowess prediction by ball position. I was thinking it could be interesting so see what outcomes or prediction rate that would have running through Winhunter, where you can change the variables... [ More ]

Hi Developer,

I still prefer using my computer and I would not use a mobile application. You have pointed out - the processing power needed and I agree with you. Keep the great LSA working please. Great tool.

I am the creator of the Lottery Statistic Analyser, many on here have or are using it, and I will say, LSA is an established application, its been around for 20 years (showing my age) I have seen sales go from zero in the early days to peaking out in 2012 since then a gradual decline in sales.

I figure out how to reduce the amount of number to predict, I was always give large numbers in the 35 to 37 which is useless to me and I reduced it to 25 to 30 numbers by changing the OUTPUT settings in WinHunter. The State of AZ seem to have fix games by doing Something called Technical Corrections check out the Help section of Advantage Gold Chart4 it explains what TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS are and why they use it. I keep seeing cold numbers that was not suppose to hit come up

I dont have a specific link. Check out the Software Advantage Gold by Gail Howard. It downloads Lotteries history for many Country and State/Province/Region. It allow one to view the drawing history then with a Right Click lets one EXPORT the drawing into a .TXT format with filters like choosing column 0 to 3. Try the Server/Client feature and let us know what you think about it. Andrew also put the source code online I dont know if you know Visual Basic6 But if you could check it out to see if

SupaNova09, do you know Andrew? Do you do Programming? There is a winHunter Source Code that can be tweeked and modified for VisualBasic6 but was hoping to see a converted Visual Studio C#/C++.

Hi Dan,

Im planning to make a more detail video on how to edit files for any lottery.

But in summary.

remove the existing header and replace it with this format.

!! *REVERSE* Date M1:D1:1/45 M1:D2:1/45 M1:D3:1/45 M1:D4:1/45 M1:D5:1/45 M1:D6:1/45 B2:D1:1/45 B2:D2:1/45 !!

!! for drawnumber then add *REVERSE*

Date for date placeholder

then you setup the machines.

M1:D1:1/45 = M1 for machine 1, D1 ,D2, etc for each ball drawn. the 1/45 is the total of balls

Glad to see the revival of Winhunter. I lost it when I lost Windows XP.

What is the latest version. I think the last version I had was v1-1-3 or something like that. Been looking through some of my old disks from XP but can't seem to find it. On line I found v0_1_5 but it doesn't look the same.

Hi All,

The files to allow you to read the help files for winhunter are now on the sourceforge page. they can be found under Files - Windows Installer.

download the Install-help-for-Win10.rar file. Extract it to a folder then right click the install.cmd file and select run as administrator.

This installs the old xp windows help system on window 8 /10. after that you can click help inside winhunter and be able to view and read it.

A quick question for the Guru's out there...

I have often wondered if we are looking at the wrong methods to measure a machine's signature. Hit counts, pair hit counts, etc.

Does any lottery software exist that plots a heat map of each drawing across that lottery's history, based on that individual drawing's position on an imaginary line starting from index #1 (the lowest drawing) to the last index # (the highest drawing possible) ?

I ask because one of the last ideas I wanted to build... [ More ]

Reply #26

Andrew — Thu, 02 Mar 2017 22:28:52 GMT

What I designed WINHunter to help do was to slowly eliminate numbers while still maintaining the highest hit counts across the drawing history.

WINHunter veers away from a NN in that a NN pulls in all data and attempts to use every aspect of the drawing history to predict the future. This assumes that the entire drawing history IS the entire signature.

Using WINHunter, you could use a simple filter that looks at the previous drawings and scores the balls drawn (single hit processor). You t... [ More ]

Looking at past history I ask myself, why are there some people that claim and have won the lotto more than twice.

Study the data and let the mind make connections. I trust my gut instincts more than any NN

past present or future. If there is a flaw in the drawing process than maybe a NN would catch

it but now days the lotteries contract the equipment from companies that work in the industry

and know what they are doing. However with this being said, human error will always be with

us.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the encouraging reply! I totally agree with everything you said. Faster Computers is the keyword here. Just think about how much custom hardware was developed specifically for bitcoin! WINhunter was born from a small application I put on FreeServers ages ago, which itself was born from a QBasic script I wrote to test an idea about predicting drawings. That program was written on a 386 PC that didn't even have a math co-processor.

SourceForge has the latest files. Compiling and running is the tricky part. You have to follow the steps to get it to compile correctly. I do have some backups of the files that I had, but the machine I did most of the Dev work on bit the dust a while ago.

My suggestion for a revival would be to build a winXP virtual machine and do development there. But honestly, it has been so long that it would be better served to be re-written in dotNet.

I have been looking at adding some code changes to the AI so it tests the files and places the output according to a naming convention.

The problem with it is it can be quite complex but can give good results. I built a basic stack and ran some back testing on it and was in profit(no jackpots though) over 100 draw.

There is a few interface bugs that need to be fixed with proper error handling which will make it more user-friendly.

Looking at the previous post back in 2003 the had predicted the jackpot after that everything went quite. So wonder if the final version was not release as he sitting on a island somewhere
