It? I'm assuming you mean the program and by the program, I'm also assuming that you mean BCDC++ as DC++ is just a standard exe installer.
You need to download WinRAR from http://rarlabs.com this will allow you to open the archive where all the files are contained. Move them all into a folder and click on the BCDC++ exe. That'll open the program up and get you to a point where the instructions in the first post will be able to guide you through the rest of the procedure.

There really isn't very much info I can give you that isn't already in the first post. Please read it over carefully, especially the part from troubleshooting 'and any other connection problems'.

If you need further help, contact me via IM.

Double post.. but this gets more attention, which helps.

WJ has taken his hub down for a while, so he can upgrade his computer's hardware. While his computer is offline, I'm hosting the hub.

The address is fghub.no-ip.com


Edit: Hub back. Disregard useless info.

Not a weird question, it happened to me too... make sure your address that you're connecting to is smash.servegame.com, then reboot DC++. should work fine.

You're client is obviously having problems getting through to the hub.

Check out the first post. Under troubleshooting, there's some info on how to set up active mode, try that or passive mode.

Everytime I search for something (Ex: Mario) to get vids I only get 7 results, no matter what. I am on Passive mode and I would prefer not having to switch to Active mode to fix that. How can I get more results?

I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me.

You switch to active mode. There's no preference. If you want search results, you'll have to make the change and set it up properly. See the first post for details.

If you have winrar, you can use BCDC++. It can be ran from a folder in any location. However, I'd recommend moving it off the flash drive before starting it up, then moving things back over when you're finished or you might find things can really crawl along doing things like hashing file lists.

Anyway, you can find bcdc++ - HERE

Incase you need it - WINRAR

*** Connecting to smash.servegame.com...

*** Connection reset by server

i think my college is prohibiting access because it sort of resembles a file sharing p2p program......

any ideas?

K, if you're bored like me, and know how to use IRC. Connect to server IRCHIGHWAY, and enter channel #smash. If you don't know how to use IRC, DL mIRC, its pretty easy. Just find the server settings in the options and connect, and once you are connected join channel #smash.

Or you could connect to the back up hub

fghub.no-ip.com

I don't imagine it'll be long before WJ gets stuff working again.

where do you plan on posting up my sh** WJ? In this thread? And do you want me to include all html formatting for the document? I can give it to you in a text document form if you'd like as well

WJ's computer is probably down or experiencing some technical difficulties due to some random incident. He's most likely not home to fix it at this time. Please keep trying to reconnect to smash.servegame.com. Thank you and have a nice day! :)

I have my connection going through 2 different types of routers. I get the "Connection refused by machine" error, and I've done all the port forwarding and setup. Any ideas?

Name the 2 routers you are using for me if you will and I will be able to help you out. In the meantime, check this out it may help.
