I Cannot DL 1.04

 

Vuze shouts

 

"Connection Error (IOException:Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: http://www.systemshock.org/torrents/announce.php?info_hash=a%94c%25%D0%EDFP%21%18%9D%22qw%14%27YK%27%B3&peer_id=-AZ4208-VTgHJnxEgZFK&supportcrypto=1&port=13707&azudp=49000&azhttp=8080&uploaded=0&downloaded=0&left=2076768910&corrupt=0&event=started&numwant=100&no_peer_id=1&compact=1&key=1Li1LQoj&azver=3)"

 

 

Is the problem with me ?

Last DM versions torrented fine, though.

 

Please help.

 

Edit

Oh, and the problem persists for about a week now, not going away.

Other torrents tested work fine on my side.

Well it's getting a 403 (Forbidden). So for some reason the tracker doesnt like you.

 

There's a huge list of things which could result in that happening. Do you really need to torrent it?

 

The easiest solution is to just download it with the updater. Vuze is a fairly strange choice for a client these days, so if you feel adventurous, try a different client. Failing that you could try adding some of the bigger trackers to the torrent, like http://tracker.publicbt.com/announce . This should get you a few shared peers hopefully.

Which good torrent client do you suggest Sepentine?

Donno Windows clients very well, I use KTorrent and find it to be very well featured and far less problematic than the alternatives. The libtorrent and its many variants/forks/web interfaces are fine too, a bit too fiddly for my liking and the curses interface is pretty weak if you want it for the bare bones. Deluge is a mystery to me, a lot of people like it... but a lot of people like crap software, I once tried it... It failed because they supplied a crap makefile so I spent some time fixing it, I looked at its code and quickly realized it was complete crap. Vuze/Azu/forks are java... I don't require java for anything and as such dont have it, also quite often banned from trackers for being problematic or patched to avoid uploading... it also eats resources like a beast.

 

@Outlooker:

Good to hear :)

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.

      Finally got round to publishing a tutorial on baking normal maps in Blender, since most of the ones we have are inaccessible or years out of date.

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.
