Hi,

SharkX is not close to it's pre 2.0 versions.
From now on SharkX won't be a vanilla mod (I'm not that skilled, nor "my statement" is that different from all existing mods), it's based on eMuleFuture and it's likely future SharkX versions will continue that path.

Last words before change log and links :

1. Leechers detection and treatment : since there's no official dictation about right and wrong regarding mod name or nicks - there's no real harm done by mod/nick fakers/thieves or ghost as such. As such those are just trying to take advantage of unfair benefits given by some mods (which should be punished for giving such advantages). It's likely that such mods are doing other stuff that is harming ed2k - for that they should be punished, so being just a mod/nick fakers/thieves makes one suspicious. Suspected and leechers mods do not enjoy PowerShare with SharkX and since from time to time they tend to introduce themselves as "new" (by changing modstr) they are treated upon such changes as starting a new session (loose waiting time). Friends are not treated as leechres or suspected.
2. Anyone downloading from us (really - not just being in upload list "dying" since we stopped sharing the file he was downloading) won't be able to get into queue before releasing the slot. If he "wishes" to release the slot (by asking for another file - and it's not really about our upload files priorities, even more true if we support "a separate queue" for each file) - ... well he won't be stopped
3. Due to main toolbar changes (mainly IRC removed) : clean install is recommended, or at least remove of the line containing ToolbarSetting from preferences.ini before using SharkX v2.0/v2.1 for the 1'st time (i.e. clean install needed if migrating from other then SharkX version v2.0 or later).

Maintenance release (based on suggestions & requests made by modders, beta testers & users) :

Missing "country" (letters) column in the "upload" window (flags are present).
I also noticed a visual glitch with "resource bars in transfer window" going over the scroll bar. But it seems to get fixed once I disabled and re-enabled the option.

Thx taz!

The Italian translation has some errors.






Furthermore, IMO the translation is inaccurate. "Disattiva"does not mean "Globally OFF", "Attiva sempre" does not mean "Globally ON", and so on ...

1. 10'x everyone for additional mirrors (also some not listed here as well as some on the make).
2. It wasn't really hard coding work : I enjoyed exploiting the fruits of the efforts of merging eMuleFuture and later on accompanying beta and release cycles (vast majority of work done on these cycles carried out by WiZ). Most of my "work" on SharkX was on figuring out my own statement (or in other words : Why should SharkX exist ? Does "my taste/choices" justify an official mod (sure enough not a vanilla one) ?). I was/am aware that some of past SharkX versions user audience is not likely to continue using SharkX. Past SharkX versions were mainly a lot of c&p and a lot of public relationship (for which some of the c&p was aiming - either by my own initiative or due to requests). SharkX v2.0 represents my choices/taste. It's more about eMule (or ed2k) and way lowered profile regarding PR. I hope it will gain audience, however it's (and I'm) not aiming for that = I'm no longer the fresh ("new kid in town") meat/gladiator trying to please the crowd/users

(BTW: if anyone finds the above too personal, ... well there are other modders and other mods to chose from , most, if not all, of them better skilled then myself )

From change log :

replace country name to Remote Queue Status [Yun.SF3/IceCream] on upload list

[LorenzoC]

Oh, sorry, I missed it.
But, besides the fact that in english you should say "replaced X with Y", does it makes sense? OK, not a big deal, it is cosmetics. But it would be more consistent to keep the same "country" display across all panels and if/when you want other data add another (optional) column. Speaking of this, I think the StulleMule (don't know if MorphXT works the same) "grouping" of the flag and the country letters in the same column is probably the most elegant solution.

[Stulle]

it's from MorphXT, Lorenzo, and the actual way is "Display flag in Country Column if Country Column is available, otherwise display flag in name Column". The rest of the contents in the Country column are determined by the appropriate settings, which means they can be nothing, 2 letters, 3 letters or full name (IIRC).

Indeed (When SharkX code will be VS2k10 ready I'll state so)

[Tuxman]

The change log says no word about v2.1?

Indeed - 10'x. It should have (it held reference to, by mistake, v2.01 which should have been v2.1)
