 xMule 1.8.3 Released
Posted by HopeSeekr on Saturday, July 10 @ 05:25:07 CDT
Contributed by HopeSeekr
This release focuses mainly on user interactions with the client, along with major improvements to the download implementation. Less hassles all around, especially for packagers.
xmule-1.8.3.rar - 1.09 MB
xmule-1.8.3.tar.bz2 - 1.25 MB
xmule-1.8.3.tar.gz - 1.66 MB
xmule-1.8.3 binary (Linux) - 3.55 MB
Possible leech client versions are not automatically banned in this release. To use this feature, toggle on FlowChart->New Preferences->Ban clients that refuse to upload. What this does is prevent uploads to clients that will not upload to you but will download from you (e.g. implicit leeching of their clients due to their secretive protocol hacks). Additionally, Flow Chart->Debug-Settings->OP_FILEREQUEST should probably be turned *off*. This will not allow you to download from eMule 0.42 clients, but it will prevent 0.42 from leeching from you in *certain* instances.
All of the beta testers have noticed significant increases in downloads when OP_FILEREQUEST is turned off and leecher clients have been disabled. If you do not ban leecher clients, and want to know if you are being leeched from, the connection status column of the Download list will always say "Asking...". This means that the client has responded to you, and has entered your Queue if you have a part it needs, but that it refuses you entry into its Queue for what ever reason. To be even more sure you are being leeched from, toggle on FlowChart->Show Incom. OPcodes->OP_ACCEPTUPLOADREQ. Leechers will never send that opcode afaik.
