How to emulate an other version of DC++k

  1. If emulating pre 0.17 version, Disable the extended protocol (Extended/Disable extended protocol (implicitly disables $Supports command))
  2. Do not send the extended information tag (Extended/Send extended information)
  3. Send your own the extended information tag (General/Description)
  4. If emulating a version that does not support the bzipped filelist, disable it (Extended/Allow bzipped filelist to be sent (requires restart if not stealthed))
  5. Change your lock string (/lock EXTENDEDPROTOCOLABCABCABCABCABCABC)
  6. Change your pk string (/pk DCPLUSPLUSVVVVABCABC, VVVV being the version number of your choice)
That's it. You are now a version VVVV client. Congratulations
