Downloading multiple files from irc

Is this a new problem? If you used to be able to send files just fine, then think about what you changed recently. Did you switch to a new ISP, start sharing your connection among multiple PCs, install a router, load up a software firewall? See our firewall guide for more info.

How can I speed up the DCC get or download? Short version: You can't. There are no commands for you to speed up your DCC get anybody claiming otherwise is usually ignorant or trying to give you a trojan horse virus. Stop downloading from elsewhere to free up your bandwidth, or get a faster ISP, but that's about it. There are commands for a sender to optimize his sending speed see next question , but most file servers are already sending as fast as they can, there's just too many people getting files from them at the same time and splitting up their finite available bandwidth.

Also, DCC was never designed for large file transfers; it is relatively inefficient and error prone. How can I speed up a DCC send? Short version: generally you're limited by the same factors described above. If you have a very fast, stable connection, sometimes you can improve that efficiency a little by adjusting your client parameters, e.

As explained above, those commands do not affect DCC get speeds. Why can't I join cracks or other warez channel? Channels that deal in warez are sometimes invite-only as a result of being attacked by enemies, or just to keep the channel more manageable.

If you can't figure out how to get your illegal serials update or whatever after reading the above guide, then you're on your own. On several occasions I've already said there are no standardized commands, since file trading is an individual activity, not a standard part of IRC. All you need to do is:. To stay anonymous and secure, and avoid possible complications with your ISP or other third parties, we also recommend using a reliable VPN , as with all your other online activities.

Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Open the Options and select Connect section. Enter your main and alternative usernames. We recommend using fake name and e-mail address for privacy reasons. Select IRC section. Go to DCC section. Go to DCC Ignore subsection. In the DCC Folders subsection you can select the destination folders where you want to save the downloaded files.

Press OK to save the settings. So lets imagine that irc. Then we would call xdccget like this to use ssl:. Notice the -character in front of irc. If the bot even supports ssl than you can use the ssend-command to use an ssl-encrypted connection with the bot.

So for example if the super-duper-bot would support ssl-connection, then we could call xdccget like:. Notice the xdcc ssend command instead of xdcc send. This tells the bot that we want connect to him with ssl enabled.

You can also join multiple channels, so if you also have to join best-chat-channel in order to download packages from best-channel, then you can call xdccget like:.

This is the basic usage of xdccget. You can call xdccget --help to understand all currently supported arguments. You can modify the default parameters to your matters quickly. Compiling xdccget is just running make from the root folder of the repository. Please make sure, that you have installed the depended libraries OpenSSL and for some systems argp-library and use the correct Makefile for your system.

To compile xdccget under Ubuntu and other distros like Linux Mint you have to install the package libssl-dev with apt-get. Thanks guys :. Hej : Well, i've found a way to queue files in mIRC, now, is it possible to queue more than 20 files? I've found no such option in the settings. That would be really awesome : Thanks.

Most bots if not all of them limit one download per user, so that one user don't end up hogging all of the bot's slots at once. Therefore, you won't be able to get multiple files from the SAME bot simultaneously.

But you can get files from multiple bots simultaneously just fine. This is on the bot's client side, not yours.
