Actually BigStar he is somewhat correct. I frequently have to change the dl limits allow for all connections to run about the same (yes stupid, but as I write this I have downloads running in 11 instances of ffxp simultaniously).
The way it has always worked is, Open the options dialog on one of the running ffxp's. turn on dl limit and set it to a number. now if you goto any of the other occurances you will notice that the dl speeds have not been affected. But...If you open up the options dialog in that instance and look at the limiter, you will see it is checked and has the same value you set in the previous instance. Now if you click ok it will apply all settings to the current instance as well. Typically all i do is set on instance then goto each of the others and open then immediately close the options dialog. now they are all running under the limit control.
This is only 1 option that I know this applies to. I have not tried it with others. What I believe causes this behavior is the fact that the options are only initiated under 2 circumstances. 1) When FFXP loads & 2) when the options dialog box is opened and apply or ok is used.
If I am wrong plz explain the effects I have described.
I have yet to install RC1 as I only now downloaded it and have about 52 hours of downloads to complete before I shut down....lol
