Vallarta Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 downloaded a file that was 100% complete but when i try to use the file it says it's missing a file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 stop, right click, force recheck. If it's missing a file you need to redownload it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallarta Posted January 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 so does that mean after recheck,force restart to get the missing file/files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Oh, sorry yea. After you recheck and it verifies you are missing files, START the torrent again. It should complete to 100%. Note that resetting previously "do not download" files will require downloading of them. (Aside: Force Start should not be used except in extreme cases... thats what Ctrl-P -> Queueing is for) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallarta Posted January 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 u sort ot lost me therei have 31.8 mb (1hash fail) and i can queue it to start after the force recheck,is that correct?i would queue it in the options menu, right?how do i know if it retrieved the file, would the hash fail be gone?i appreciate the help u'r giving meany idea what a binkw32.dll file is or does?is it important because i couldn't fix the hash fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Bink Video Player is from RAD Game Tools... If you were unable to get the file by changing it from Do Not Download, something is wrong with the swarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallarta Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 i'm using the utorrent 176 downloader and i didn't see any option of changing do not downloadis there any way of getting this file?could i just get a bink video player and it would work?

jewelisheaven Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 ... Under the files tab you right click on the files and select "do not download" as the priority.. as opposed to Normal Low or High. Sure you can get the files for RAD game tools still from radgametools.com i think?? I haven't touched anything which used that since '02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallarta Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 this is the part i don't understand because in the files tab, all the files are 100% completeif u take the general tab it says waisted : 31.8 mb (1 hashfail)now if i do as u say, then when the tracker updates, the hash fail should be corrected?

Ultima Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 No... tracker updates have nothing to do with the hashfail count. The count won't go away unless you reload the torrent (quite unnecessary). Ignore the number if a forced recheck shows the torrent to be 100% completed.Just to be sure... in the Files tab, nothing shows "skip" in the Priority column, right?Try right-clicking the torrent in the list in µTorrent and open containing folder. Do you see the files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallarta Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 nothing shows skipped, all is normalchecked the folder and there isn't any file that is 31.8mbthe executive is where it says the binkw32.dll is missingi guess i shouldn't be seeding this file until i get the missing file or will the peers just get it from another seed?

Ultima Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I didn't ask for you to check if there is any file that is 31.8MB... I asked for you to check if the files you downloaded are there. Again, if forcing a recheck shows everything to be 100%, then ignore the hashfail count.

Vallarta Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 yes there all there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 So nothing is missing... What was the issue again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallarta Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 when i run the exe file it needs the binkw32.dll file which i understood was the file that had the hash failon doing a lot of reading and with the help from jewelisheaven i've come to understand that this is a video program file that probably isn't included with the downloaded file(wasn't meant to be)the hash fail was probably corrected on it's own and that's why everything is normal and 100% completereread my post and a lot of searching/reading, shouldn't have any troubles from now oni'll see if i can find the file i need to fill the gapthanks jewelisheaven and ultima for your help and time, i appreciate itlater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Uh, if I'm interpreting what you're posting correctly, then it looks like you're asking about a content issue, which we don't deal with. Can you take a screenshot of the message that says a file is missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I don't believe there is one? I think it related to the hashfail?... lol actually I don't know I'm tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 when i try to use the file it says it's missing a fileMy guess? It's an executable with some external dependency (binkw32.dll) that can't be found. As Vallarta has verified, none of the files in the torrent contents are actually missing :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
