DC++

IMO, this is not needed for 2 reasons: 1. The tab turns red when the hub is not connected. (No need to open all windows as stated.) 2. I want to leave the hub window open so any disconnected hubs try to reconnect. Hubs can disconnect somewhat frequently due to ISP problems, or if the hub gets restar...

Oh yeah, an old birthday present. So where did you find my precious "pookie wookie"?...

jbyrd

I got a 9500, and softmodded it to a 9700...then OCed it to a 9700 pro.

It does sorta conflict with my MoBo (Giga 7vrx), but it runs all my games extremely well. I'd recommend it.

BTW, I have no artifacts. I guess I lucked out.

I would like to advise everyone out there to stay AWAY from Hitachi. These guys are giving me such a hassle. It was a pain in the @$$ to ship it to them (so particular)...but it has been 4 weeks and they still haven't shipped it back to me. I had recently bought a new RAM chip and Mobo, and I haven'...

jbyrd

Too bad you mentioned the "." flaw, cuz I would have been all over that one baby!

Personally, I like pretty things. So it would be nice to search for "pretty" and have alot of pretty things to look at.

Sweet. Let's do it.

jbyrd

Well, I might just go ahead and write a new protocol then (as soon as I learn a programming language).

jbyrd

I read in the help sticky that you need to connect in order to get the new release going. How long do you need it and how much do they charge at the inet cafes?

P.S. Do you mind me asking why you need to hook up at an inet cafe?

jbyrd

the things are that to connect, both side, must know each others,

Well, I will know where TheNOP.dc++.com is located whenever the hub lets me know his address. I dunno, guess it was just wishful thinking.

Thanks

jbyrd

Well, the largest percent of posts are in the Help/Support forum. MANY of the posts in there are from unregistered users. So there are more people actively posting than it seems at first.

jbyrd

Yeah, I figured that.

But, could it be possible for the hub to see that and no one else? I guess that's my question.

Thanks NOP.

jbyrd

Recently, I got a NO-IP account for my stubborn dynamic IP connection. It sparked an idea :idea: . Why not have the hub perform like the no-ip.org servers do? In my simple yet optimistic mind, I see the hubs having a list like: jbyrd.dc++.com -> 69.201.51.89 *handle.dc++.com-> xx.xxx.xx.xx This coul...

Now that I have been thinking about it, I wonder if somehow I am hurting DC when I help those that use it.

The more people that use DC, the more likely it will be targeted. I think that the help given in the help forum may have a negative effect on the longevity of DC.

Just some thoughts.

jbyrd

I agree Xan. To be honest, when I first started using DC, almost no one that I knew had heard of it. It was kinda cool, like an "exclusive" p2p network. As far as my involvement in the forum: Because of the nature of my job (Mechanical Engineering internship), I have been able to spend some time dur...

jbyrd

Are your uploads affecting your downloads, maybe? If so, use the small send buffer option available in the advanced tab in the settings window.

jbyrd

You will simply have to use a different hub...one that uses a port other than the default one. Just look in the hublist. The number after the ":" is the port number.

I don't see another solution, unless I am missing something.

jbyrd

Thx. I'll check it out. Even though I have pretty much looked over all of my settings, I may have missed something.

Read the topic VIRUS ALERT!

If you're dlding a movie and the user goes offline, you can do a search for alternate, but when you start dlding the same file from another user, it starts back from scratch, it should resume where it stopped. Right click an alternate file and choose "download to..." and select the file you want to...

No other firewalls...just the hardware one. I have a modem with a built in router and an additional router that is set on bridged ethernet...so it's not NATing, etc. Oh, and my XP firewall is OFF! :wink: got somethings you don't want others to know ? Hehe. :oops: If you really want to know...it had ...

You da man!

I have now seen 4 threads in the Help/Support section go on for 12 or more posts before it was realized that the reason the person isn't receiving any search results is because they aren't connected to a hub! Would it be possible to "grey out" the search button until the user is actually connected t...

jbyrd

Well, if the user changes the number of slots they are using, then you are likely to get different speeds from the uploader. It's simple math, really. If it is determined that the uploader's maximum bandwidth is 128kbits/s, if that user has 10 slots and they are full, then you are going to get 12.8 ...

jbyrd

Well, it is possible...but I didn't reset it. I just disconnected it from my modem and ran the lan cable straight to my computer. Again, it's a long story...I don't want to bore you with the details.

jbyrd

First of all, DSL - CABLE - T1 are rediculous for two reasons. 1. It is obviously easily fakable. 2. It says absolutely nothing about upload bandwidth, because not all Cable or DSL or T1 connections have the same maximum upload bandwidth . Now that that has been said, the MAXIMUM (like Twink said) w...

Yeah. Like I said in the initial post, I was able to disable it before it shut down (by selecting "Take No Action" in the RPC service pane). The problem is, I am having weird things happen since I got infected. I can't go active on WinMX...and I started getting messenger service popups (I ran adawar...

The symptoms are only those that I listed above.

Like many others out there, the blaster virus has affected me. I screwed up and disconnected my router (that's a long story) and about 5 minutes later...BAM virus hit and told me that my computer was going to shut down. I actually disabled it before my computer shut down...and ran the update and pat...

jbyrd

DC++, in my opinion, is BY FAR the best client for the Direct Connect network. Also, in my opinion, the DC network is the best. They have many rare files, and the download experience is much more interactive. I use other networks, of course...but hubs just make the difference.

jbyrd

Well, I think the connection type is worthless. Quite a few times I have downloaded from a "56k" user at 100KB/s.

It sounds nice...and definately not any more "fakable" than the current feature.

jbyrd

Hello there!

P.S. Leecher = bastard on this forum.

jbyrd

There's no real good way of sharing things that you really like to other people unless they already know about it and are looking for it. Probably because: Most people go onto DC++ looking for something specific and either they find it or they don't. Personally, filelists are ways for me to downloa...

jbyrd

Yes. Yes. You are correct. I've been doing some reading lately...and I now understand most of the ins and outs. I'm in the process of getting one, but it's a hit or miss game. It is pretty hard to find one, but I have found 5 different ones now. But, like I said, it may not fall through. Anyways, it...

jbyrd

OR create a folder called "!Recommendations"...and put a .txt file in there with your recommendations.

Just a thought.

jbyrd

Ok, it looks like it IS the 9500 that has the L shaped mem chips. Am I right>

jbyrd

Ok, I just reread your post...did you mean 9500pro or just a regular 9500?

I have never actually seen the L formation of memory chips, but just to make sure the 9500 black PCB versionand 9500Pro red PCB versionaren't configured like that, right? (I only see ram along one side of the GPU).

jbyrd

That's what I just read. Seems there is some software needed...or is it some type of bios update? Can't remember, but it seems that you have to do something to unlock it.

Do you know what I'm talking about, and if so, where to get it?

jbyrd

Rating the hubs could be as easy as putting them in order in the hub favorites window. Simply move the hub up or down the list...the first is your "favorite favorite" while the last one is your last resort.

Whatcha think?

jbyrd

Believe it or not, this is the third feature request in three weeks which serves the purpose of preventing the user from downloading a file they already have. Now, I'm not sure how this one will be taken, but the responses in the past were: "Lay off of DC for a while, and get to know your files." "S...

Yeah, I'm not familiar with Nvidia at all. The 9500 pro is a gem. They DISCONTINUED the 9500 pro because it can easily be overclocked to surpass the 9600.

If I remember correctly, the 9600 doesn't even have a fan. Man, is that right? I can't remember now.

Anyway, thanks for the input.

Check out this post. If you're not happy with the responses, post back here.

Sounds good. Does the existing hub software have any type of "tag" as the dc++ client does? If so, then the dc++ client could look at the hub tag. Or, the hublist could list these requirements in a separate column...much like some of them show the number of users and total Terabytes of files shared ...

You may want to have some type of alert without the popup window...because many of us don't like popups.
