Seiya, are these other updates going to be torrents again?

One or two gig is fine but anything above that really needs to be on Sendspace as these torrents are simply not working at all well.

I kept a track on the people who were d/ling and the ones that seeded after finished and most did as expected and jumped off leaving others to do the hard work.

At the moment with ZERO other bandwidth use I'm getting between 10 and 20K which means if left it will take 10days @ 24/7.

I know its not your fault but it makes the notion of getting more torrents a hardship and not to bother. Even on non pay file sharers (apart from putlocker and sendspace) you get a minimum of 50K unpaid.

Hell, I'd even sign up for a month to get full speed, sadly most will not host a single 16gig file.

Again, I really appreciate your work but many of your forum members simply took and ran, I'm really hoping the ones that are coming up to 100% in the queue bother to hang on, sometimes it looks like there a start of a good number of seeds and then they just go..

Just looking now and there not one single person from your forum seeding..

They should be ashamed of themselves, truly leeches.

Oh wait there two Italians seeding and a majority of the cue is Italian based so if any of these people could be bothered to seed this torrent could fly, sadly they come, leech and run.

None of this is your fault, its just people being greedy and refusing to be a decent person and seed.

Now no seeders at all.....

I see you asked at least 10 people to seed before you release the other updates, maybe you should make it 20 as they are simply not taking notice.

Never seen anything like this over the years using torrents, it was just the done thing that you seeded at least the same amount you downloaded or 2x +

because on other portal, the seed are not detected.
Only when you download the file, you seed how many seed there are.
At this moment there are 10 seed on italian site, it's not much, but better of none.

I think the problem will be the trackers in the torrent file.

Paul,
if you download the torrent file from the first site it was uploaded it to, the second, third or fourth sites trackers won't be loaded in your torrent client list.

Examples
http://tracker.tntvillage.scambioetico. ... 0/announce
udp://fr33dom.h33t.com:3310/announce
udp://tracker.publicbt.com:80/announce
udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announce
udp://fr33dom.h33tunblocked.co:3310/announce
http://fr33dom.h33tunblocked.co:3310/announce
http://www.h33tunblocked.co:3310/announce

also because h33t is blocked in the UK you might need the unblocked proxy tracker adding as well.

search for a full list of unblocked trackers /proxies, there are new ones daily.

@.mad, I see what you are saying but its the first time I've ever come across this with a torrent in all my years, very frustrating as its a GB I wanted to update.

For once I think I'll give up, the idea of doing all this for the other updates just puts me off.

Cheers for the info.......My your whippet have puppies :)

@Seiya, please do not think I have ever blamed you, your time and effort has been very much appreciated, its just as said above such a strange issue that I've never had torrent wise before.

Thanks..

i add, as experiment, Myst for Win3 on gamebase and it works greatly.
When you click on Myst, you'll play with Myst.
Resolution is 1024x768, but games is in 640x480

This game could be interesting for a new gamebase in the future or add some win3 games on this ms-dos goldies..

Good idea to include Windows 3.1 games (rename to MSDOS & Win 3.1 Goldies?), and keeps it different from the DOSbase project, I'd like to see this.

i don't know.
italian version of myst (my copy) work very well with all animation, but english version not.
Is a different iso so many animation don't work.
So i decide to leave Myst ita and add Real Myst for others :)

i don't have much win3 software, many demos only..

however, i can't rename it.
i'll see in the future with my software for old win3 if i can make something..
