Pawcio implementation:

What this does if you are trying to download a file and the file does not have any complete sources, useing this will not let the file start downloading untill there is a complete source for it. Also if you Right Click in the transfer window and from the menu choose [ Force Download ] from the menu this just bypass the stopped incomplete file and try to start the download.

neo implementation: Is similar to the one from pawcio, but in inner working are much more sophisticated. It complety prevents reasks for files with missing parts, it only performs once a partial request to obtain part status. As soon as a complete part set is seen outstanding re asks are completed.

eastshare implementation:

  • if a file was not seen complete, no data is downloaded and no bandwidth is wasted.
  • while waiting for the file to show up complete, sources are asked every (FILEREASKTIME*2).
  • the download can be manually started in the file-context menu. (last seen will be 07-07-2002, that's emule birthday. change tick count to 946681200 for sat, 01-01-2000)
  • if a file is stopped and restarted, this waiting state will be restored.
