How to remove search limit of Dreamule?

**tunayx** · 01.01.10, 16:23

Dreamule has a great feature that when you set search to automatic it searches both global servers + kad network automatically. But if it finds about 100-200 results then stops global server search just after it starts. Is it possible to remove this limit by editing its code?

Look for the part that cancels searching after you have enough results in SearchResultsWnd.cpp and comment it out:

PHP Code:


/*

if (!canceld && count > MAX_RESULTS) 

CancelEd2kSearch(); 

*/

I've found SearchResultsWnd in emule.exe but couldn't find the code you've given. I use hxd hex editor.

You can't do this with a hex-editor. I was talking about editing the source code and re-compiling.

Sadly I don't know anything about compiling. I find this search method really very useful but limiting search feature skips lots of results. More than one year this tool haven't been updated. Could you do it, if it's not time consuming for you?

I don't have a clue about compiling either.

But if you look for info and get the right tools...

you don't have to. you need M$ visual studio, load the project file and hit build

But it's 3 gb, is there anybody has already installed it on his machine and compile it for windows?

i've tried loading "BaseClient.cpp" as i assume its the main file but it didn't succeed.

a cpp can not be a project or main file.
who's the coder here?
