Help... :)
 

Hi everybody :)

I was wondering if anyone could please help me with an issue ive got... I talked to my ISP about it and they told me its not a part of what their support service covers...

I have recently installed vista ultimate and at the same time upgraded my ADSL line from 1.5down/150up to 2.5down/250up.

I've been using the Xtreme mod for a few years now without the slightest problem :) it's the most stable mod and I get the best speeds only with it :) thanks for this great mod!!!

When I had the 1.5/150 line I have limited emule's upload to 13 and 99.9% of the time it was between 12.6 to 12.9 with 0.1 to 0.4 overhead - very stable upload rate, the download rate was not limited and I got a max rate of about 200 depending on the number and quality of sources found - very stable download. Oh..! I was running windows xp pro at the time.

Now, that I have vista running and a line of 2.5/250 I cant seem to get a stable down/up rate - when the down rate goes up the up rate goes down and the opposite - I limited the up rate to 30 now after running a test saying it can handle 45 and the down rate stays unlimited. The up rate seems to continuesly (sorry...bad english) go up and down in a very unstable way (0-27 with a minimum of 3 overhead) and the down rate doesnt even get close to the rate I had before the upgrade :(

also, when my down rate does climb up for above 50 or so the up rate overhead is also climbing and takes over the "releasing" up rate (it climbs up to 12-17 overhead)....

I'm sorry for all the info and the trouble but i'm really driving my head through the wall on this one cause its just weird... my emule is acting strange... :)

my system has recently been formatted and works perfectly with no other software using the bandwidth...

any ideas on how to make the rates more stable..? thanks :)
oh., and anyone know of a speed test that can test my upload and my download simultanusly for conflicts or something..? thanks :)

"Furthermore zz takes factors like the current download speed into account."
I could not understand this proposition.Can you explain more fully?(basically)

I am curious about why do you prefer to choose maella as default ?
what's advantages or disadvantages about these two methots.
(sorry 4 my bad english , it would be great if you explain basically)

second question ;
how we can sure about we failed the secure identification or not failed.

I had Xteme 6.1 and for some reason all of a sudden my kad shows connected , but is firewalled..
So i returned to 6.0 hoping that would fix it, but it didnt..

I have rechecked my firewall and read the settings page..
Still nothing cant figure it out...

I'm 1.5m down and 768 up.

Every 15min to 30mins it changes servers on me,, so i'm put at the end of the queue..
So basically i have a 5mg download i have been waiting on for 4 days..

If you change the server you don't loose your queue-rank. You can even use emule without any servers by using Kad only.

Warning About Upload Settings
 

I got a messege at the Log box says:
" Warning: your upload settings seem to be too high. Please review your settings!
look at the uploadgraph, the white or the yellow(with NAFC) line should be straight
this message is only generated once"

The white line is usually straight but there is always part that it goes down for few minutes and then back to the normal line.

It's the second or the third time I get this messege.

What should I do?

try to lower your upload a bit. If this helps everything is ok.
If it doesn't help you maybe have a bad ISP. Then ignore the message.

I don't know how to lower my upload...
Usually the uploads are 100% and I saw somewhere that it's not good.

Can you please tell me where I can change my upload settings?

http://www.koolfiles.com/files/uploadlimit.png

With NAFC you should set your uploadlimit at 90 % of your capacity; without NAFC at 80%.

Kind Regards
aalerich

Thanks for answering me.

Please explain what is NAFC.
Another thing is that in your setting you got 120 KB/s
and I have only 13.9 KB/s...

Do I need to change that?

No, this depends of your internet connection!

You should try to do a Speedtest (without eMule!)...

NAFC = Network Adapter Feedback Control. A feature to optimize the upload. Enable it if you don't have a router or if you have a router but only one computer behind the router. Otherwise disable NAFC. An explanation you can find here under "Features" --> " All Features (english)".

Of course you have to use your own capacity and the correct limit for it.

Kind Regards
aalerich

Thanks again.

Well, I have done the speedtest already and I have changed the capicity too.

I have a router for me and another computer means that no need for NAFC.

I changed the upload with the calculation of the 80%
so now it's 11.1 KB\s.

I hope it's ok now.

Should be ok. Good luck!

Kind Regards
aalerich

I got another problem now...

I disconnect from the server every 2 hours and then it automatically moves me to another server.
I always connect to razorback 3.0 and then it disconnects so I can't stay in this server for all night or more then 2 hours.

Is it problem at their servers or I need to change somethin?

As long as you don't use Zonealarm it's a problem of Razorback 3. This is a leecherserver and often overloaded. Simply don't use it.

Kind Regards
aalerich

Enhancement suggestions
 

I have recently migrated from eMule Plus to Xtreme and am quite happy with the additional features and efficiency.
I miss however a few niceties that perhaps could be introduced in Xtreme too:


Paused or Stopped download visualization
- Color change or other means to easily show that a download is paused or stopped.
Reason: If perchance a download stops without user intervention (e.g. low memory) and the Status column is not visible, it may take a while to correct the situation.

Message text on the Subject field
An option to allow the message text to be put directly on the Subject, to make one aware of the content at a glance.
Instead of
Subject: eMule notification: Download finished
Text: Elisabeth Leonskaja - Schubert Impromptus D899 & D935.rar
it could be
Subject: [eMule] Downloaded: Elisabeth Leonskaja - Schubert Impromptus D899 & D935.rar
Text: Downloaded: Elisabeth Leonskaja - Schubert Impromptus D899 & D935.rar (optionally)

SMTP authentication
If one only has access to a SMTP server that requires authentication, there's no way to receive notifications - one has to install a local SMTP just for the purpose.

http://www.koolfiles.com/files/stopped.png and http://www.koolfiles.com/files/paused.png

Do you see the difference?

Kind Regards
aalerich

I see now; in fact I did not notice the darker tone of both the blue and red colors (I probably mistook it to the changing in tone depending on availability on the search window).
Thanks for pointing it out.

nobody to explain :(

I can't, sorry.

Maella always requests the rarest chunk available. It takes also in consideration that clients with a full queue mostly are useless sources. Zz requests incomplete chunks to complete. Even if you get a chunk from three sources at a time zz requests the same chunk from a complete source instead of a more rare chunk.
To request the rarest chunk is intelligent. Maella is always intelligent. Zz is intelligent until a chunk is spreaded over 20% of all involved clients. Then the intelligence will be disabled.

Not sure what you mean by that ... You may check other clients in queue or somewhere else. If the majority of other clients is secure identified your SUI is ok. If not you should shut down emule and delete the files cryptkey.dat and preferences,dat in your emule-config-folder. Then restart emule.

Kind Regards

Hey
I am using xtreme mod.
Since 2 weeks ago the search doesn't work fine-
it doesn't search sometimes and somerimes it searched but takes at least 5 minutes and that gettin me crazy.

At the start when I used the program it worked very good and searched fast but now something happened and it doesn't work well...

It happens at all the servers I checked...

Hyez.. i was wondering if a can get some help.. I use xtreme and I love it.. but since I installed Vista, and can't get extreme to display the flags of the countrys form clients... can anyone help me?

How Can I Enable The Upnp On Xtreme 6.1
 

@DriveOff: i had this problem, too, but it's working these days. try to check ur open port and don't do many consecutive search in a short period of time.

@FoolOnTheHill: erm.. i cant remember it too !! :chuckle

@Sambo: there are many reasons why upnp isn't working:
1- router doesnt support it (modems dont even use it)
2- some services.msc may not be running
3- some other fw or antivirus software is messing with upnp queries


^`-_-´^`-_-´^`-_-´^`-_-´^`-_-´^`-_-´^`-_-´^


now i have a question of my own. because of this problem, im left with a mere.. 3 downloads in queue. so, after joining a server for the 2nd time, xtreme will only ask for ONE source at the time. 'so whats the problem', you guys say, 'that is to prevent spam'. of course i know that, we don't want ppl who's downloading over 100 files asking ALL of them everytime they join a server!! my problem is.. it keeps asking the same friggin file, over and over again !! :bang

i just activated the "save log to disc" option, hadn't it switch on before because im using a very low spec (and low power consumption too) computer.

i discovered that xtreme or original emule client have an internal timer that doesn't allow you to make queries to the servers, even when u manually connect to another server. i find that feature very well implemented, and should stay there to prevent overload to servers and even more important, to identify and ban fast connecting clients and/or leechers.

unfortunately i dont know how to code, else i woulnt be making this post. so my sugestion is,
when under such a short number of downloading files, lets say, 9 or less, clients should ask sources to the server for all files they're downloading. only after the limit the existing timer rate should apply. i doesn't represent a large increase in badnwitdh, i think it could even leverage it, because ppl like me won't be jumping from server to server every and so on =)

thx a lot for your time,
:beer:

Hello there. Sorry if this was already asked/answered but since this forum is in german i'm a bit lost...
I have my xtreme installed, my router ports opened and my download is always between 90% and 100%, but unfortunately my upload (which is set to 11) rarely passes the 3 or 4 Kb/s. Is there a reasons for this? I mean i read all the options and couldn't find anything that could be strangling my upload speed... :(

The reason is the download-overhead. This is normal behaviour. The only way to increase your upload is to reduce your download.

Kind Regards
aalerich

no, that's not normal. i also have 128 kbits of upload and xtreme happily gives 13 when 20 downloading, only going to a minimum 8 when downloading more than 100 kB (which is very rare since im downloading only 3 files atm). do you have obfuscation protocol on?

*EDIT now i've read more.. what do you mean, 90 to 100% of what? connection? tell us values please. so i guess that's normal, for instance, you have a 2044/128 connection and are downloading at 180kB or more, it's normal the upload @ 3 kB..

hello i cant connect to servers with low id with xtreme mod. however regular emule connects with low id. i do not have chance to open ports. but xtreme mod doesnt caoonect as low id. how to sole thid problem.

some questions
 

hello people !
thankyou for this mod

i need help about 2 issues

- When i search there is very less sources (actually only 1 )

- When i click on a link at a website it says unkown type of issue then nothing happens( it doesnt add it to transfer list)

i hope decribe problems correctly

waiting to hear from you soon.

thank you!

Ps. I have High ID and no problem with connecting to the servers.

Hi, perhaps i can help you with your second issue.
In Xtreme MOD's options menu you have to push the button "Handle eD2K Links" the button i marked in the screenshot down below. :unten:
I hope this will fix your second problem.

http://i26.tinypic.com/2lasew5.jpg

For your first problem it would be helpful to give us some information:
The files you're searching for are they mainstream-content, or rare-content?
e.g. do you expect more sources for that kind of files?
Do you use KAD too?
Do you search them only on (global) servers or KAD or on both systems?


Pan Tau

Pan Tau

Firstly thank you for your attention,:dance

The files i am searching for are definitely mainstream-content.:yes:

do you expect more sources for that kind of files?

yes new episode of lost is shown on my other computer 7200 sources but at other one there is only one!Where has 7199 people gone :D :sb

Do you use KAD too?

No , i dont know how to use :P

Do you search them only on (global) servers or KAD or on both systems?

I search only on global servers.

hi guys,
i just want to say that this is really a great mod. i have no problems downloading movies. but the problem is downloading tv series is painful.
let me explain:
when i download a movie, sources look like this: 85/89, 677/700 etc..
but let's say that when i try to download 5 episodes of a tv series at the same time, sources look like this: 11/16+69, 12/17+81 etc..
when i try to swap all A4AF sources to one episode, then the sources become normal like: 65/69 and it start to download that episode fast. but this swap effect other episodes' sources negatively.

how can i make it download all episodes fast without swapping sources?
thx..

Of course. A source can be used only for one file. Since you can download only one file from one source at a time you ask only for one file. This is the way emule works. It does not reduce your download-speed.
If you want to finish a specific episode faster than another one you can improve / reduce the download-priority. Then emule will ask all useful sources for the file with th highest priority. Otherwise it tries to spread the sources to have the same amount of sources for each file.

Kind Regards
aalerich

New user questions.
 

Hi there,

Can we have the speed control back on the icon with right click like emule please? Connect/Disconnect on the icon is useless as far as I'm concerned. And middle click does nothing anymore?

How do you select other skins?

My button ("Handle eD2K Links") is greyed out. I can't select this???? Any suggestions?


I'm just trying your mod. I used Neo for a long time, but it uses to much memory for the machine I'm on now. Your mod seems to be working without adding alot of extra memory. Congratulations!

I'm especially interested if this mod will help to get rare (as in one complete source every couple of days maybe) files. I see that some mods will keep your old queue number so you don't have to start at 4844 everytime the guy with the file disconnects and reconnects 2 days later. Does this mod do that? Are there any settings to optimize this?



Thanks for the help.

There are at minimum two ways. The one i prefer is to download and use a tool called "Windows Enabler", the instruction manual on that site should explain what it does.

Pan Tau

p.s.: This tool called "TurnItOn" should do the same.

The Xtreme does not have this feature. (Save upload queue waiting time) But you can enable "One queue per file" (Multiqueue) and increase the priority of the rare files you want to upload.

Kind Regards
aalerich

A few questions
 

First hello and thanks for a great eMule mod. Now on to the questions. Currently I'm trying to get a file that there is only 1 person with 100% and another with 31%. I've gotten some, don't recall which person, I'm thinking it's the 100% one. Because on the 31% person I'm always at Queue Rank 1 or 2 with them, but I never get anything from them. Their client is also supposedly Xtreme 6.1, but I just find it so odd that I'm always at QR 1 or 2 and nothing happens. Are they leeching or is there anything I can do about this? My other question concerns that every time I start Xtreme 6.1 it claims there's a new version and a new DLP version, but I have v31 like on the website and there seems to not be any newer version. Anyone know the reason this is happening?

Does the 31% source have any chunks you don't have? If not this could be the Reason why there is no upload to you from that source. If you really want to find it out by yourself, enable the log-functions in Xtreme-Mod settings and dig yourself through the data.
Your second request: Ok, i think it's annoying, but i don't think it would harm your system.
Perhaps someone else here is able to answer your question. (Sorry, i am no Xtreme-User and unfirm with it)

Pan Tau

Sorry it seems I totally forgot to say I only have 11% of the file. So yes, the 31% person has parts I need.

As to the auto update I'm more curious as to why it started happening recently like in the last 3 weeks to a month ago. It had never happened before. So I'm wondering why this mysterious update message pops up. Something must have been done at the server that the Xtreme emule clients checks in with.
