Direct Connect Users.

[Protected Witness]

I'm new to this P2P program. Does it matter what hub you connect too if you're looking for certain things (like...Opeth videos)?

Also, I can't seem to pull up anything in a search unless I connect in passive mode, which only searchs the hub you're logged in on (I think...).

Does anyone else use this? Can I get a little help?

When you connect to a hub, read it's description and it's name. That will clue you as to what most of the users will be sharing. When you find a good hub, add it to your favorites so you don't have to search for it again. I have the same problem with the passive mode. I can't search if I don't connect that way.

If you have just the regular direct connect, not the DC++, you can only connect to one hub at a time. If you have DC++, you can connect to multiples as long as you have enough slots open for each hub you are in. Don't worry if you don't have DC++ though, a lot of the users share it and you can download it from them.

Well, I hope that helps you a little bit. I've used this forever and it is my favorite P2P program by far. There is tons of metal out there. If you have a broadband connection that will make your experience much better with it also.

Where would someone get this Direct Connect program?

 

[Oaklain]

www.neo-modus.com I think.

some hubs don't allow DC++ i've noticed.

 

[IanDork107]

but dc++ is a much better program than dc. for dc++ go to http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net and once you have the program connect to paladin.sublevels.net

Anyone know some good hubs?

 

[Kushantaiidan]

Yes.. the Ultimate Metal DC Hub is currently the best metal hub on DC.

The address was mentioned above:

paladin.sublevels.net

 

[IanDork107]

alphaprp.no-ip.com is a new one that seems good as well.

Uhm.. I entered this hub and it was like 8 users.
Probably, it was "the wrong" hub. Just saw it in the Public list.

You're sadly mistaken. The best hub for metal is none other than
metal.no-ip.info

thankyou it now works!!

 

[zengaja]

metaluniverse.no-ip.com and bybo.no-ip.org aren't bad either.
At last i found the carcariass album there

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

If you like prog, dont forget about freemusic.no-ip.org

We should keep this thread here especially for letting others know of new hubs which may be of interest.
