NEWS:
[ 6/5/04 ] Oops.. when I updated burst's website design, I deleted the torrents.lst by accident. Fortunately, MakeTorrent automatically switched to a backup mirror.. unfortunately, I hadn't updated it. So the tracker list is once again minimal. I need someone to maintain it.. why oh why doesn't anyone want to maintain it.
[ 2/5/04 ] After a long wait, MakeTorrent v2.1 has been released! Changelog:
- Added new setting: auto-ignore thumbs.db (default: enabled)
- New command line parameter: -autosize .. try this if parts of the GUI are cut off and let me know!
- Moved create torrent button up higher, in the case the above doesn't work.
- Added more piece sizes, up to 16mb (only use if you know what you're doing!)
- When a torrent has been created, the abort button now greys out and the finish button is focused
Those of you having trouble with weird font sizes or DPI settings, please try the -autosize option and let me know if it fixes the problem. As usual, post problems in the Forum or Contact me directly..
