Change Log

3.0.6 -> 3.0.10

• Added multi OS support (Mono required) (BETA)

• Mono (Only if are running mR outside Windows environment)
• Permission to create/modify/delete files on it's folder and sub folders
• Permission to make/receive internet connections.

How To Run (On Windows)

• Extract mRatio.exe and mRatioClients to a folder at your choice
• Run mRatio.exe

Things You Should Know

Files included in the package:

• [FILE] mRatio.exe = Main executable, mRatio core
• [FOLDER] mRatioClients = Contains all the emulations available (*.mRClient)

Files created by mRatio:

• [FILE] mRatio.mRConfig = mRatio settings
• [FOLDER] mRatioTorrents = Contains information on saved torrents (*.mRSave)
• [FILE] mRLog.txt = Information about errors saved by mRatio, helps fixing future problems
• [FILE] mRMonoInfo.txt = Required information if want to use Azureus emulation (Only if you use Mono)

Any other file/folder on mRatio directory does not belongs to mRatio

Limitations:

1. Max upload speed per torrent = 2mb/s
2. Max download speed per torrent = 10mb/s
3. Unable to use uTorrent emulation

Confidence System

What is it?

It's a system that allows to control upload speeds of multiple torrents at the same time, making cheating easier when you have a lot of torrents in the list.

How does it work

It works based on the maximum upload speed per tracker and the trust you have in each torrent.

Interface
Attachment 8080

Smilies:
N = Do not use confidence system, means the torrent will run manually controlled by you
1 = Low trust in that torrent, the program should be careful with speeds on that torrent
5 = It's a good torrent to cheat on, the program should give higher speed to that torrent

Trackers:
Controls the maximum upload speed per tracker, means the total speed of all torrents associated with the tracker with at least '1' smiley should never go higher than the specified value.
Default maximum speed is 100Kb/s.

In Practice

1. After adding a torrent, define the trust you have on it.
   For example, you can give an old torrent or a torrent with low peers/leechers 1 or 2 smilies, while a torrent with lots of peers can be given 3 or 4 smilies, finally if you know thats a very good torrent to cheat on you can give it 5 smilies.
2. Do that to every torrent you want the program to automatically control.
3. Now go to trackers speeds, and define the maximum upload speed per tracker.
4. Start the torrents and you will notice they are fully automatic on upload speed.

Example:

Torrents:

Torrent / Tracker / Number smilies:

• a - TL, 2 smilies
• b - TL, 4 smilies
• c - TL, 0 smilies
• d - FTN, 1 smiley
• e - FTN, 0 smilies
• f - TL, 1 smiley

Trackers:

• TL max upload speed = 200 Kb/s
• FTN max upload speed = 35 Kb/s

For the program this means:

• Torrent, c and e, don't have smilies so they are manually controlled by the user, the system as no effect on them.
• Upload speeds, a + b + f < 200Kb/s
• d upload speed < 35 Kb/s
• Because torrent b as 4 smilies is upload speed is going to be bigger than torrent a and torrent f that have less smilies.
• b upload speed > a upload speed > f upload speed but all speeds together are less than 200kb/s

---

Note:
Changing the maximum upload speed per tracker, adding a new torrents or changing the trust on any torrent makes the program reevaluate the speeds.

How To Disable/Avoid Confidence System

All torrents should be 0 smilies (N), if you want you can hide the trackers by pressing right click and deselecting "Show Trackers".

Making changes on the inside is one thing, but doing a complete graphical overhaul is the quickest way to cause problems with the user base.

I understand what your saying, but i was at a dead end, redo or keep "avoiding" problems
i'm not saying it's this the final skin for the future version
Maybe on the next version will add a compact skin, so it looks more similar to the "normal" list or even custom skins
It all depend on how the users react if majority is unhappy i will change it

I will check RevTT detection problem, for now avoid Azureus on RevTT use another emulation
The crashes are most likely all the same
The problem is mR on crash should save important info to the log and it's not, i will check and fix that problem and after that it should be easier to spot the crashes problems.

The248, it is human nature. People react to change in a negative way, even if it is as awesome as yours, and the happy majority seems to be more often than not silent.

You know that this change in design is superior. You did not change it so that it looks "cute", but because it is much more useful this way. Even if the design was made by Picasso, people's first reaction would be to reject it, but within a few hours of use, and after they come here to complain, they will think this is not so bad, and enjoy its obvious benefits.

I hope that all the new users maybe commenting will not make it seem like people are unhappy. At first I thought it is different and unfamiliar too, but now I think it looks delicious, and much more efficient and useful.

[saebrtooth]

Being able to choose which skins would be the way to go then you can satisfy everybody. I must admit when first using the new v3x it was a bit difficult due to the new gui but also much appreciated in terms of

• low memory usage
• low CPU usuage
• able to use multiple client emulations at the same time
• able to load any number of torrents
• able to sort by x
• etc
• etc
• etc ...

ps
Did I see clearly when you wrote "custom" skin. That would be so excellent
So allow the user to just drag and drop that lable into position? We could even save the template and share it with others.

Try to figure out which tracker is causing this by only loading 1 tracker (but any number of torrents of that tracker) at a time. Wait at least the amount of for mR to crash in ur case 3hrs so wait 3 1/2 hrs to load the next torrent set from the next tracker. Do this until u find out which tracker is causing the crash.

I have the same problems on CHDbits.

[saebrtooth]

The more debug info The248 gets the better he will be able to fix these

good day sir!

forgive me for my noob question...

this is my first time to try this program...

but i've used other programs such as greedy torrent before...

pls correct me if i'm wrong...

is this program working w/o the real torrent uploading and downloading?

because i'm using ABC client and i paused the torrent...

i run this mRatio program and its still downloading and uploading...

is that how really works?

thank you for any reply...

[Evilmill]

i am also facing same problems...
mR crashed after 4-5 hrs left open...

i was fake seeding with no leechers at a free tracker.
started at morning 9.00 pm and went to work... wen i came back at 1.00 pm i noticed mR crashed..

[saebrtooth]

mR crashes after 2.5 - 3 hrs with thevault.bz

I wonder if the time it takes to crash can tell us anything about the trackers scripts since they vary and are pretty consistent and can it be manipulated. Or is the result of timing related to mR only.

Situation same as before. If the torrent is in the list in that session not started mR doesnt crash
if the torrent is started or even stopped in the same mR session then it seems to start a countdown for crash

[Evilmill]

one more problem.. i was running 25 torrents on mR from 2 trackers [WB && TD] and when i tried to stop all...
got error on 7 torrents all from single tracker [TD].

Critical: Unable to write data to the transport connection. An existing connection was forcible closed by .....

Critical: Timeout while waiting for data from the tracker.

i was using deluge 1.3RC1 emulution

[anon]

is this program working w/o the real torrent uploading and downloading?

[Dr.house]

what can i do with crash problem

[The248]

what can i do with crash problem

wait

since the bug is random and takes hours to appear it requires more time than normal to spot/fix

[SheRloCK HolMeS]

from where can i download clients for mR ?

[alpacino]

from where can i download clients for mR ?

You can't. You have to work with the ones that come with the latest version. If you are looking for uT emulation, just forget about it, since it isn't available anywhere to anyone.

maybe we will have a thread with updated client in the future but right now the most important is fix the random crash
