eMule MorphXT Gets an Update – Version 11.0 Released

Usually when a major update happens on a main project of an open source program is live, any modifications (mods) end up going through an upgrade as well. This is exactly what has happened with one of the most well-known mods in the eMule community – MorphXT.

When a developer opens the source code to their software – especially for P2P software – a number of interesting things can happen. One of the interesting things is the possibility of fork projects or even modifications. One of the major features in the eMule community is the numerous spinoff projects that are being released, continually developed, and are well-used by tens of thousands of users.

Of course, the question newcomers generally raise is which one to use. The general rule of thumb is that if a user is new to the client and protocols of eMule, a user should stick with the original version. Once a user has gained a sufficient amount of experience using the software, that’s when they may want to test drive modifications, or mods. eMule mods won’t make downloading faster, but they do offer numerous advanced features that eMule generally doesn’t offer – at least offer in the short term as some features do, in fact, wind their way back to the original version.

One mod, which also was recently updated, is eMule MorphXT. Leuk_He, the main developer of the mod recently announced the release of the latest version of Morph XT.

“It contains some stability improvement from out newest team member[fafner],” leuk_he said, “and a whole bunch of other tweaks you can read in the changelog.”
