Fact stands that eMule is a non-widespread piece of crap imitation of a crap program which used to be eDonkey.


:wtf: Razorback alone supports  1 million users. I'm not going to get into a which is better argument. I use both azureus and emule cause I find both useful.  I'm not saying that people shouldn't make a torrent for the vp files either. I'm simply saing that it won't hurt to have a emule/edonkey link as well so that people can use whichever client they are more comfortable with.

I misspoke.

It was five minutes using the program yes.

It spent a little longer on my computer though.

First, it took an hour to process the 60gigs that I chose for it to share, because guess what, it needs to hash.

After that was done, I found the files I want to download, and then it put me in a line.

I waited for three hours, download didn't start - program went byebye

-----------------

I have no issue if you want to provide an eMule hash, but even if you're going to do it, make the torrent the primary way of getting it, and eMule a far secondary.

Also, personal advice, take it or leave it, your choice.

Azures sucks balls. Change to BitTornado. Even if Tornado doesn't have the queue for your files, it's still rockhardasskicking than the Gay looking Azureus. Hell Az doesn't even have port forwarding, one of the main things about the entire system.

That's the other problem I have with BitTorrent. I keep being told that some other program is the best client for it :D I've been through 3 or 4 clients already :D

Well I guess it's all about what you need in the end :p

Also, Killjoy and I have already started on a .torrent. I have half of it, but it's going slow because his upload is kind of limited.

After he gets it to me, we're probably going to seed it to someone with a good free (of cap) constant upload, and then put the torrent up for download.

Well, I don't have time to dedicate to help set up a PHP download system if you want to set up one up, but you can get a number of free php download manager systems from

http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/File_Manipulation/Download_Systems/index.html

Again I can't recommend any since I haven't used them.

Cheers!

Okay -

I need..................one or two volounteers to share these .vp's off the bat.

Requirements:

You need to:

Have a decent upload rate (30-50kbps is....decent)
Be willing to share for a good portion of the day
Have access to all your firewalls/routers if you have them

Killjoy and I can share the .rar with the .vp's, but I can pretty much do it only over night when I'm sleeping, or when I'm not near the computer. I'd say that's about 12-15 hours out of 24, so that's kind of majestic as far as I'm concerned, but still not nearly enough.

After there are three or four of us on some kind of a schedule for sharing, then we can host the torrent, and say "Click here if you want to download the .vp's".

Any takers?



The way I figured this would work is the following. We'd create a thread, a sticky, or whatever, and we'd tell people in that thread to post if they need someone to seed these files (providing there, and only there, the link to the .torrent)

I wouldn't expect any of us to seed 24-7 so it'd be best to start seeding on request, considering I don't see 120 000 people coming over and intensly wanting the .vp's.

If anyone wants them, they post, and we fire up the torrents to let people download them (alternately, you can just keep it on 24-7 if you can, and seed it eternally, you won't see me complaining, but I'd consider that a little short of impossible)

Does that, sound good?

I guess I *could* host some of them... but I dunno how long my PC can be on... Since I work 8 hour days, and when I'm here, people tend to turn my PC off on me... *glares at parents*

That's the extremely easy part.

Hard part is what Raa is talking about.

I am thinking of something else at the moment, but please, if you can, reply so that I can send you the content together with Killjoy, and we can start this thing.

 
I gonna set up a download site once I get the script properly configured..... Is there anyway we can make the tracker machine or torrent refer some clients to the server I am preparing to set up or would that be too hard to implement?

np, what would be cool is a downlaod cleint that combines the p2p power of bit torrent with the reliablity of having 1 copy always present (web based)

if there was no one wiht the infomation u need online i would then download the info from the web server but fi there was people online with the infomation needed it would download from them and not bother with the web server :)
