LOL, ok, how do you use the torrent file?

Go here: www.bittorrent.com

Download and install the program. Then download the torrent file and open it. It will ask you to pick a directory, where it will place the file(s) downloaded by the Torrent. Once the download is complete, just go to directory you picked and run the file.

I went to that url, www.bittorrent.com, and it was a subscription service, they want you to pay for it

frightlever, we've (beta testers) mentioned most, if not all of the things mentioned in the thread. Some things just weren't fixed, I think due to a bit of a rush.

This was free, easy, and quick for me.

I am having a bit of a headache trying to work out weapon mounts...

... with no range improvements, is it just me, or is it better to use loads of large ship mounts rather than a few massive ship mounts.

Large - damage x200%, weight x50%
Massive - damage x500%, weight x200%

is it just me, or is there no benefits? or am I missing out other factors?

and why is it that planetary napalms say 2k damage on massive, and 980-980 on large... its giving me a headache!

w00t! uTorrent works, but I'm only getting 30 kB/s

AAAAAH~!

****************** edit **************

Ah, so desu ka! If you skimp the UL rate, the client or network (uncertain which) skimps your DL rate! I had the UL at 5 kBs, and was getting the 30 kBs DL rate referred to above.

I increased the UL rate to 20 kBs, and the DL rate jumped up to 270

Clicking on either "Download Bittorrent" or "Get Bittorent" should eventually redirect you to Download.com, which is totally free: http://www.download.com/BitTorrent/3...=dl&tag=button

I've never paid a dime to use Torrents. Sure it will pop-up a window sometimes when you use it but I don't even get those anymore (maybe that was mIRC with the annoying "DONATE MONEY!" pop-ups).

Yeah, OK, I got the free client, no clue how I wound up at that pay site last night.

Right, so I DL and install the bittorrent client, and it won't run. It does the "hourglass for 10 seconds and then nothing" routine.

Sigh. WTF ever happened to good old FTP?

I did get where I downloaded Bittorrent then doubleclicked to start the icon and nothing happened. I restarted my computer and tried again. Same thing happened. A momoment later several started opening from my many tries. There was/is some sort of lag.It still does this if I try now. So I guess the process was not that easy.

Maybe try utorrent.com.

a feature that would be nice is the select multiple queues thing is a bit stupid...

it should be either you choose the mode like it is now, but then on multiple, clicking on the line should do the same thing as clicking the button on coloumn one.

having it the way it is is a waste, and maybe they should have it on multiple always by default as this allows you to select single planets, but easily do multiples...

hopefully you know what I mean
