G3 - Bittorrent Client / Discussion / Open Discussion: g3torrent 1.01 release

Jeremy Arendt - 2005-02-09

A release! A couple new features added. Python 2.4 is now being used this means better unicode support among other things. Japanese/Chinese character support should work correctly now (as long as the .torrent file is correctly encoded). latest version of wx is being used again (2.5.3.1u.).

-1.1 - Feb 9, 05'
* Minor. Upgraded to wxwindows 2.5.3.1u.
* Minor. Upgraded to python 2.4
* Now using wx's MainLoop/OnIdle in python instead of a wxTimer for updating the
gui. This requires wxwindows 2.5.3.1
* Added feature: Schedule Command. It's in the "right click->change this torrent
options" menu. Here you can schedule a commnad for when the DL completes and
stops - Like shut down PC.
* Experimental option: Drop leechers. Under the Connections options. Selected,
the client will drop peers who have: 1) already downloaded more than 1meg from
you, 2) have been connected at least 20mins, 3) have a share ratio worse than
3:1
* Updated spoofer options
* Fixed bugs.
* Merged superficial bits of the BT3.9.1 source. Might eventually merge in more
of what will be BT4.0 but, But it seems to be quite a bit of work for almost
no benifits.

-1.0 - August 25, 04'
* MAJOR. Finally added an RSS Feed reader!
* Major. Upgraded to wxwindows 2.5.2.7u. (What a pain!)
* Fixed bugs in add remove columns.
* Tried to address some issues with unknown unicode code pages.
* Fixed a error involving column sorting and the removing columns from lists

      P.S. I installed the new release in a separate dir and all I needed to do was copy torrents.ini and btconfig.ini from the old install to the new to pick up where I left off.

  working good so far. I've been running all day without any problems. but I did get a wierd error in my messages. are we getting error messages in the client instead of an error log now? or is this really a tracker error?

  I updated the files to include MSVCR71.dll in the installer.
  
  I fixed that error where it looks for:
  'D:\\Home\\G3BitTorrent\\g3torrent\\dist\\images\\flags/*.*'
  
  If you have problems with it launching still you will have to delete your btconfig.ini The file will be recreated fresh on startup.

  had to switch back to 0.999...
  
  becouse of some major bugs like:
  1) sometimes loaded torrents dissapearing after
      restarting g3.
  2) Something is wrong with progress bar/stats:
      it was switching beetween 86% & 12% while
      downloading a file(also tracker stats were wrong)
      aftrer i reloaded that file in v.999 everything was
      ok. Tracker stats were also corrected.
  
  now to annoying things:
  1)Multi-file torrent manager still doesnt memorize the
     choosen options, so if you restart g3 u have to
     check/move files again.

  when I gave upload preference to a peer my upload dropped to 0. and then my download dropped to almost nothing cause I wasn't uploading. when I removed the friend my upload and download came back to normal.
  
  this is one of my favorite features. I hope it can be fixed. I like this new build and don't want to go back to an older version.

  Every time I close the program, even after stoping torrents, It comes up with an error message, the program still remains in the active process list, and when I open it again all of the torrents are gone. Rolling back to 999 solves this problem but still it needs to be fixed.

  g3 leaves the following error log when opening a torrent and g3 isn't running. Opening g3 then opening the torrent is fine. I tried uninstalling, deleteing the g3 directory and reinstalling but the problem persists.
