Transmission mod 1.91 debian/ubuntu - In the works ???

**tworkemon** · 01.03.10, 16:55

This mod will be based on the transmission-leecher-mod-0-13-1-52 mod. I will be using that as a starting point. It isn't much since ALOT of code has changed since the 1.52 release. Just glancing at it there is no one for one hack.
I do not have access to the members area so not sure how this compares to the one that is currently there. Plus this will be for Debian/Ubuntu users.

Here are some of the things I would like to try to incorporate in this mod.
>>>>>> No Report Leech <<<<<< ---- Taken from the 1.52 release
No Upload, No Download, No Complete
Shown as Leecher.

>>>>>> Report Seeder <<<<<< ---- Taken from the 1.52 release
Real Upload, No Download, No Complete
Shown as Seeder.

>>>>>> Upload Ratio <<<<<< ---- Reading the 1.52 mod thread there seems to be a way to adjust your upload ratio
X2, X4 and maybe even a 1/1 ratio or someway to adjust it based on your download. Not sure still thinking it through.

>>>>>> No upload<<<<<< ---- Would be great to incorporate. All there is now is an upload limit based on speed.
Deny all uploads.

Any suggestions, feedback, criticism, help would be appreciated. Let me know what you think.

Moved into Talk, you can post you're Mod when it's done in a new thread.

Fake upload? If your coding skills allow it, it'd definitely be a great addition.

A transmission mod with extra gui would be nice, that you can select a different cheat version for each single torrent.

I am still doing research right now. I have never hacked a torrent client before. Basically reading up on how torrents work etc. Any of you "experts" out there have any pointers would appreciate it.

Also, I just saw your edit and remembered you may benefit from one of anakin's threads:

let's say for linux. wouldn't make much sense to restrict it to one distribution.

Progress!!! Looking at the transmission code really quickly. It seems possible to do something like this:

*up = (Some number ie...3) * tor->uploadedCur; -- multiple some number by your current upload
*down = 0;
*corrupt = 0;
*left = 0;

Therefor your upload would be *3 whatever you uploaded? Or whatever you put in () *tor->uploadedCur.

Also I guess for leech

*up = 0;
*down = 0;
*corrupt = 0;
*left = tor->info.totalsize; -Make it seem you download 0 and still have all to download

"Completed" should be set to 0 right for leech purposes and to hide the download? The only time you want complete to not be 0 is when you want download to count ?

I can't help you with the rest, but make sure &event=completed is never sent when in "no report, leecher" mode.

Are there any tools to view what events/key/id etc are being sent?

**anon** · 01.03.10, 20:29

I.e. sniff tracker announces? Wireshark.

That's interesting, I'm doing one (a simple 2x fudge factor for now) for myself but for windows mainly since I'm not a member. I don't think anyone here is interested to test such a thing? ?? Am I allowed to post such a thing? I'm thinking that it'll be deleted since there's already one in the members area and moderators wouldn't want any overlaps ..

This version will be for Linux and maybe even binaries for several different platforms. Haven't decided yet. The mod will NOT be included in the web client portion. I do not use it so I have no interest in moding it. So basically if you have one for windows go for it. Also if you can do not use straight 2x,4x etc try to use some random factor like 1.9-2.1 or 1.8-2.2 when you do it so it does not look suspicious. Straight 2x is fine imo just for a quick test or two but not for a prod ready mod. Just my 2 cents in the matter.

We don't have any problems. A Windows Transmission mod would be great. Read this before posting it, though:
