Awesome, I am a bit late but happy new year and thanks for the amazing guide.

EDIT: Would it be beneficial to seed the torrent after downloading it for others? I have not used this tracker before? I do own 3 private seed boxes why i asked.

I will probably make another torrent with a fixed client. The current one is giving some problems.

But everything else work, so as you want.

Okay, Once you release it with another client ill do the same.

Currently setting up another seed box as we speak. If you need anything around 100GB or less i will seed it for you. Most of the Bandwidth and Storage is unused after the last private tracker i was supporting went down last month. This caused me to have around 35TB BW, 2-6TB space free not sure on the space they are not all on the same dedicated.
 
Is the chat fix the new client or not yet? I just set up a seedbox and the current chatfix torrent is stuck at 0%

I have it ready for downloading of V3 once the network comes back online, If you want message me directly ill seed anything ahead of time or share an place that has an RSS feed. I have all the seed boxes ready to auto-download and seed torrents.

Same goes for anyone else, I do not use discord. Only IRC if you want the dedicated IRC channel just Private Message me or similar.

Already downloading its going pretty slow even at 1GBIT nic and the 10GBIT nic is moving slow. The seed you have is slower than my boxes lol.

This is the new seedbox i setup this is what was used in around 24 hours. on the second image.



once its down it should improve speed greatly :D

thx
 
The new torrent fixed a lot of client issues, I am seeding the torrent in one of my seedbox.

I have also a direct link for download, for limited requests only, if you have high speed download from EU to your location contact me. first comes first serve.

Thanks to ArtykWolf for taking his time to reupload the torrent with client fixes. (y)

I must have something wrong, because I see "0(0) seeds - 0(7) peers"
 
I normally use udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce and udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announce

tracker was set by qbittorrent I think, not pixeldrain.
