I noticed that lot’s of people ask on forums how to make/create a .torrent file so i decided to write a short article about it. Firstly, .torrent files can be used on torrent trackers but it is possible to use them just for sharing movies, games, songs and so on. So i will produce three ways how to make a .torrent file.
1. uTorrent
Just follow these steps and you will create a .torrent file.
- File > Create new Torrent (or CTRL + N)
- Select the files and or directories
- Trackers: This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough. Here are some good trackers you can use:
http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announce
http://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announce
http://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
udp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
http://www.sumotracker.com/announce
Put one of these in the tracker box.
- Do NOT tick the private torrent box (unless you’re using a private tracker)
- Save the .torrent and send it to your friends. I personally recommend uTorrent and/or Azureus.
2. Azureus
These steps will be similar so there won’t be any difficulties doing it with Azureus.
- File > New Torrent (or CTRL + N)
- Tick “use an external tracker”.
And again, This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. Here are some of the most popular trackers at the moment:
http://tracker.prq.to/announce
http://inferno.demonoid.com:3389/announce
http://tracker.bt-chat.com/announce
http://tracker.zerotracker.com:2710/announce
Put one of these in the tracker box.
- Select single file or directory, click NEXT and point to the file or directory you want to share, and click NEXT.
- Do NOT tick “private torrent”.
- Do tick “allow decentralized tracking”.
-Save the .torrent and send it to your friends.
3. BitComet
And the last way to do it.
- File > Create Torrent (or CTRL + M)
- Select the files and or directories
- Select “enable public DHT network” from the dropdown box
This way you can be your own tracker if the public tracker goes down.
- Tracker server and DHT node list. Again, This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough. As you can see it’s similar or maybe the same steps with all clients. Here are some of the most popular trackers at the moment:
http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announce
http://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announce
http://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
udp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
http://www.sumotracker.com/announce
Put one of these in the tracker box.
- Save the torrent and send it to your friends.
There are many more BitTorrent clients you can use but these are most popular. You will find any movie torrent you want.
