Looking for WinMX tips please
(edit to add mxnapper and napmx links)
Hello all, I decided to give WinMX another try and figured i could really use any tips out there. I finally got a movie there the other day...and that is my main focus right now, though i love music too. I have searched the forums here, and the web and got a few tips. There are so many threads here that mentioned WinMX that i had a hard time going through many of them. Perhaps a compilation here that everyone could use? from museekster: -new to me was with using the ping, stupid me thought the higher numbers were better...now it makes sense. -warming it up by doing a common/popular search first. i may have gotten a few more results doing this but not sure if i would have gotten those new ones anyway. from this forum: -select multiple servers(winmx 3 beta), users(both versions), whatever using shift-click or control-click to avoid repetition. -using napmx ["down"(load) link at the top] for ver 2.6 or MXNapper for 3.0 beta to add whole lists of opennap servers for better search results. -messaging: had some luck with, best results are when someone who's queue i was in messaged me! for something i had. worked fine. -when banned for using winmx, change setting(forget where in app) to report that you are using a different client. -resuming a file where only the name is different by making a copy and changing the name to the same as your partial download. problems i am having(even though sharing 120 files/3gigs, including recent movies like resident evil and showtime.).... -shows "cancelled" -kicked back in queues continuously -banned from server, not sharing(once, when i was sharing) -same user keeps coming back: busy(queuable) after repeated tries to "enter queue" by right clicking. (means i am being "ignored?" with ignore function? or server problem?) thanks to everyone for any help! please add to the list. Last edited by fogelbise : 25-03-02 at 03:34 PM. |
