Nothing wrong with a bit of competition
Kaz is maybe pissing people of with all the fake files
people will rather wait queues
PS: SORRY ABOUT THE KITTEN
as long as its around (can't ever see it getting wiped-out). I use SuperNova(BT),
K++, and emule. Just downloaded my first mislabled file/movie from emule today.
What should have been scary movie 3 was shreek if you know where I was last friday the 13th, (or some such name). Still watched it, totally stupid somewhat funny about what I expected from sm3 but on a lessser scale mabe. I think anytime we download, from wherever the source were unfortunetly going to run in to mislabled files, I just hope that some P2P programs are going to have a lot less than others. But I for 1 like having alternatives, if I can't find a file on 1 or getting low or no sources, having other options is always nice.
about the guy that said eMule sux cos its slow - theres a creditfile... according to the weight of it your "reward" is bigger.
in other words: share as many files as you can, and as more people will download from you, your credit gets higher, and by that you "push into line"
tralalala
no thats not quit true ! if u share too many files u will get banned by the servers and get black listed not allowing u to get back on the server - they do that to keep the server stable BUT if u let the ppl upload from u your credit file gets bigger and bigger and u will get a better place in the queue and start dl more quickly as far as i see it - so emule really forces u to share :)Quote:

edit: check the servers to see how many files they allow most have a limit . i share about 100 files all togeather
actually, thers a hacked eMule which has a predefined creditfile of 20.9 mega (yes, 20.9 megabytes), but i cant seem to get it to connect to any servers... :(
and i share some 190 files

tralalala...better!! :DQuote:

If its not connecting from a low id,its most prob rom your firewall..Change the ports in emule or just keep tri..it should connect after a few tries.
You could also increaseQuote:
You could also disable auto update server list on connect,and delete half of them antway there shit.Just leave the static servers.Enable connect to static list only.
Connections>1000 max connections-5 sec> 150-200
Connections>set upload to say 11kb place a tick to unlimited download.
Files> max connection per file to 1000
After around an couple of hrs of queing you'll get a few sources & near enough max your connect 'esp if you have a few hundred sources.
ummmmm, ok ill try 2moro mornin, im too tired now... c im even cuttin down on letters
tralalala ;)
oh and another thing ck-uk, tomorrow at 4AM israel time (im in israel), on the eMule site with verifieds, theres going to be a new version comming out, so i dont want to try that stuff till after i install that new version.
ill update later on.

I'm not sure if you guys have looked at the FastTrack network lately, but it clocks in around 4 million users. eMule has what.... 200,000? 500,000? 1 Million? :blink: Whatever it is, we all know damn well it's nothing near FT. The only program that can give K-Lite some competition is Shareaza, because it combines G1, G2, eD2k, and BT.
after having all the connection problems with Kazaa Lite , as many peeps have been having lately. i downloaded shareaza and looked for the same files i was having trouble with on Kazaa Lite ( fakes , low download speeds or just connecting always ) and with Shareaza ive been very surprised at how well shareaza works , now as suggested by other peeps i'm still keeping my old faithfull till they get a handle on it =(Kazaa Lite) and using Shareaza for all my movies downloads,Im sure they will get a handle on Kazaa Lite soon.
Good luck all in your searches and keep sharing !!!!!!!
k-lite forever!! :D :D

20MB credit file?...you do know that the credit file in emule is not your credits, but the credits of those who have uploaded to you right?.
All those people you upload to store your credits, so it stops users doing what you did.
Sorry to say this but theres no speedup whatsoever. All you can is to share and build credits with your uploads.
Users is coming up to 2 mill...
ahem, the higher the credit.met file (C/Program files/eMule/Config) is, the higher you credit, and your download speed (pushes you up in the line, a bit like shitty old kazaa)
tralalala
Let's face the facts: eMule features 3rd generation file-sharing; sharing of partial files, I.C.H. ... all of which contribute to its popularity.
like i said....the credit file doesnt hold your credits.Quote:

Deleting it or not, its not gonna affect you at all since it doesnt hold any of your credits.
but it DOES affect your priority in the queue list for downloads...
which is why the higher it is... the better!!! :)
tralalala
I voted the first option. E-Mule may have the best files, but its slow as fuck and is very annoying. K-lite is and still the best , Shareaza seems pretty descent though.
Second that, but kazaa is still crap. :rolleyes:Quote:

Ask at emuleplus forum or other forums, but i guess when you state you used a hacked mule, they will turn on ya.
Its more likely its doing something like userhash impersonating/stealing, rather than have a big credit file.
but the only difference between the regular eMule to the "hacked" one was the size of the clients.met file (SORRY, i messed it up when i said credit.met... my bad... lol)
in the hacked one it was like 30 mega whereas the regular one starts aat 0... only problem with the hacked one is that it DIDNT connect!! even after leaving it to connect for 30 mins!!!!!!!!!!
tralalala
i know which file you were talking about (clients.met) because there aint a credits.met anyhow.
I posted a thread in forum so will provide link to show it has no effect when i get replies.
Taken off the help section.Quote:
clients.met: stores the credits for other users that have uploaded data to you
in that case... where can you see how high your credits are?! where can you see if your "doing well"?
tralalala :)
http://emuleplus.sourceforge.net/forum/ind...t=ST&f=1&t=3697 >>heres the post.
Answer to your question: You can't. Not possible.
in THAT case... all the people that said that eMule works like kaza... (and thats not a few im talking about), then loads of people are WRONG, and also, theres no point in eMule is there? wouldnt it make sense if it had a reward system similar to kazaa?
tralalala :huh: :blink:
well i think kazaa's reward system is based on how much files you share (ie in size) and emules is how much you have uploaded. AFAIK in kazaa there is no file that stores how much a user has uploaded to you, or how much you have downloaded from a user so i'm assuming the participation level does work on amount currently being shared.
Could be wrong though.
in THAT case, where can you see in eMule how much youve uploaded?
lol... sorry if im getting on your nerves, just say so and my mouth is sealed (more like my fingers are braced :D )
tralalala
hmm.. less than 45% chose K-lite on a k-lite board
kinna makes you wonder..
i personally use both, though i use emule a lot more and if i had to chose it would be emule, very easily
and u have to get your facts straight about emule credit system
1. it has little effect on queue position - the amount of time you've waited, and the priority of the file you're trying to get are heaps more important
2. credit is not global, it is only between any two clients. the credit is not stored on your computer but rather different credit is stored on the computer of each user you upload to - that credit is based on how much you uploaded to him and how much he uploaded to you.
3. the emule credit system is constantly being improved and besides that they have mods with different credit systems (pawcio, lovelace etc)
4. the kazaa credit system was stupid, pointless and easily cheated. notice how you can't cheat in emule, since the credit file is not stored on your comp.
for further information, you could check the emule official FAQ and forum
hf :ph34r:
and for the record, shareaza sucks
well you could check through stats if you want an overall total. but for clients who you have uploaded to, find a icon of a donkey with an arrow in the sourcelist, then rightclick and view details of that user. It should show you the amount you have uploaded to them and how much you have downloaded from them if any.Quote:

Might wanna check out the "common topics" sticky thread on E+'s forum for reasons why emule is a good p2p and for other things.
EDIT: http://emuleplus.sourceforge.net/forum/ind...?showtopic=3475
here :) feel free to post any additions here, I will add them on.
wait a minute, then whats that clients.met file in my eMule's config folder that keeps getting bigger as i upload more??
im a little thick about eMule, but i guess im a little know it all with k-lite (although im sure theres a numerouse ammount of things i dont know about k-lite)
tralalala
In other words, when you download off users, they are stored into this file which will identify the amount of credit they will have next time they connect to you not the credits you have with them. So the more you download, the bigger the file is gonna get.Quote:
clients.met: stores the credits for other users that have uploaded data to you
Phew, i think thats 4 times ive said this.
@thisiswhoweare - thanks, but i don't like emuleplus much :ph34r:
unlike other mods, it's not based on the latest official and i don't really like that.
besides, it's called "the eye candy of mods", in functionality i believe there are better ones, but that's just me - every person has his fav mod B)
and they have pawcio and lovelace credits , you could check out the differences in the board, i just use the default one, right now it's pawcio cos im using his mod - pretty apathic about it :)
thanks? what for lol???Quote:

lol... ive FINALLY understood...
thanks thiswhoweare... sorry for driving you nuts!!
tralalala :)
lol are you sure? I can repeat myself another 8 more times before i snap :lol:
jk
just stick to fair clients, leecher mods/unfair clients are more than likely to be banned, greatly reducing who you can download from anyway.
Oh and if your not aware, e+, and emule official have a feature which purges the clients.met file. So anyone you havent downloaded from for 5 months or so is cleaned out of the file. Helps keep the filesize down and keeps people uploading :)
Not sure if its in other mods though.
lol, its cool, i got the idea now :)
thanks again, and i wont make you snap, i aint that thick.... lol
tralalala
maybe you aint that thick, but im nearly there to being one fry short of a happy meal :D
anymore questions regarding mule, ask :)
thanks mate!!
actually, there is something: when i copied the ed2k link and pasted it in the israeli eMule sharing site, it wasnt a URL... why is this?!
tralalala
emule is the worst p2p Ive ever used takes about a week to start your downloads then goes at 1.2 k constant then stops at 99% finished
