theeo123 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I did a search for his first, so please, be gentle with the flames & bear with meapperently 1.2 does not support udp trackersafter using 1.1.7 (and earlier) i noticed it didnt support udpwhen i searched forums about it I got the impression that 1.1.8 was going have it then we jumped to 1.2 but no UDP support was listed in the changelogbeing silly I thoguht maybee they just forgot to mention it, and tried to download a torrent from a udp tracker anyway.surprise it didnt work.so my question is, what happened?was I misinformed? did i get the wrong impression thinking that udp would be in 1.1.8was there a last minute bug in the udp code preventing it from being included in this release?

tjobo Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 IMO 1.2 release should be called 1.1.9 since all the features that was supposed to be implemented wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keloran Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 tjobo just becasuse it was "promised" for 1.2 doesnt mean it wont come in the 1.2.x line1.2 does not end the next version will not be 1.3 it will be 1.2.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Exactly. And you got your precious DHT implemented...that wasn't easy you know? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xilon Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I think it should actually be v1.1.8 since that never officially came out. It's great to have the DHT feature and all but I think that 1.2 should be with UDP so that it's an all round good and fully featured (basics) bittorrent client Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackice Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 UDP support would be nice, if its not too hard to to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaosblade Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I really cant say i know why people are begging for UDP tracker support.. about one of every 100000 trackers uses UDP and 99% of those have http fallbacks. Useless IMO (though it will probably get implemented since ludde will want to satisfy users). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 It was never promised for 1.2.0 They said 1.2.x, which means any version in the 1.2 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackice Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 I really cant say i know why people are begging for UDP tracker support.. about one of every 100000 trackers uses UDP and 99% of those have http fallbacks. Useless IMO (though it will probably get implemented since ludde will want to satisfy users).That's what writing a good peice of software is, isn't it? Giving the users what they want to see.By the way, people aren't "begging". They're asking very politely, with no lack of respect or gratitude for all the hard work the team have been putting into utorrent.We shouldn't forget that utorrent is a bittorrent client - its aim is to download and upload files. If it can't do that, then adding all the bells and whistles (like RSS feed support, and the like) is useless - compatibility is the most important thing.It would also seem as though my comments hold water, since http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=1395 says that UDP and Unicode support are coming soon. The developers also seem to share the view that compatibility is key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdArmor Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Exactly. And you got your precious DHT implemented...that wasn't easy you know? :/Yeah seriously. They implement a totally badass feature and then people still complain about things they missed, and plus this is the first in a on haul in the 1.2.* line. =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfire Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 I'm just waiting for the day when instead of complying with certain standards or features that other clients have, µTorrent starts pioneering new features that force the coders of other clients to pick up the pace to implement. That would represent a total switcharound between µTorrent and the status quo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Seeing as how µTorrent is catching up to most of the popular clients today, I'm sure that day will come soon enough (provided that ludde/vurlix feel like doing so =P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
