Yes, upload the USB drive files onto a torrent and we will love you forever.

Awesome! Thanks so much. Glad it worked for you!

i hope i can update via usb if you get that torrent up!! Checking tomorrow for how i need to do it.

jwzimm · 11-28-2012, 08:05 PM

I think I have the torrent working. Download the file and delete the .txt at the end and see if you can start downloading. Let me know if it does work.

Maybe a little more details on how to do this for those of us that are a little more challenged with this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I fired up transmission just to see if the torrent worked and it's not gettin' it for me. However I've got a good connection as someone's downloading last year's DVDs

(I never bothered to get the code though because I figured the new ones would be out soon.) I set my PC not to sleep so if it starts working overnight I can help out.

jwzimm · 11-28-2012, 09:03 PM

Well it didn't seem to work the first time so I am recreating the torrent file. I will upload it as soon as I get it done.

As for how to get them, google "torrent". You need a client like utorrent.

I should of mentioned that I have the required software,every thing appears to be working but does not download,just looking for some tips.

Thanks.

jwzimm · 11-28-2012, 09:51 PM

Okay, I tried it again. Try adding this and see if you can get it downloading.

jwzimm · 11-28-2012, 09:56 PM

FYI, my torrent client is showing as "checking" right now. I am hoping it will start seeding once it is finished.

jwzimm · 11-28-2012, 10:00 PM

Okay, it is showing as seeding now.

Let the downloading commence.

How to do the .txt properly could be what is the problem for me, everything loads up fine in u torrent but doesn't down load?

jwzimm · 11-28-2012, 11:11 PM

Well I am fairly new to this whole torrent thing I guess. I think I used a bad tracker website. I am recreating the torrent with a different tracker that I know works. I will put it back here once I get that done. Sorry guys.

jwzimm · 11-29-2012, 12:07 AM

Alright. I have no idea why it isn't working but I am out of time and energy to figure it out. If someone who knows how to do Torrents wants to send me some instructions I can work on it tomorrow. Give the attached a try. I put a different tracker on there but I can't seem to get the seed to upload anything. I am using my Linkstation NAS as the torrent server but it just doesn't seem to want to send anything out.

I'm downloading now from this post. Its gonna take a while to get.

jwzimm · 11-29-2012, 12:58 AM

Looks like I finally got it working!! Have at it everyone. I will seed the file for quite a while so that everyone can get it.

JustinGTP · 11-29-2012, 01:52 AM

Downloading. Thanks, jwzimm!

did you update your maps to 2013 yet and did it work?

Thunder Dump · 11-29-2012, 09:56 AM

I'm downloading as well. My machine is on 24/7 so I will be seeding once I complete it.

boman993 · 11-29-2012, 11:33 AM

I too am downloading. I'll leave my rig on for a few weeks once it's downloaded to return the favour!!

jwzimm · 11-29-2012, 11:41 AM

Woohoo. Glad I was able to get this going and help out the community. Since my torrent client is on a NAS it is up 24/7. I will leave it going until I stop seeing peers downloading. I am on DSL thought so i am limited to 5mbs upload so once some folks with faster up speeds get it things should speed up.

I have completed about 50% loading in the car. It is a slow process but it is working. I should be done by the time I get home today (it only loads while the car is on).
