How to configure uTorrent 3.4.3 to download blocks sequentially?

Question

bittorrent

Good day to all. There was a question regarding viewing downloaded, for example, video in real time. The torrent downloads data, snatching fragments from different parts of the file, so it’s a no brainer to start watching a movie during the download process. Fragments should be downloaded sequentially, not randomly. But there was a way to enable sequential loading. To make it clear what this is about, some of the information is here , and the continuation is here .
In short, the essence of the first method is to open the *.dat file of the peer-to-peer client settings and set two additional parameters there - bt.sequential_download and bt.sequential_files with the value true (1). The second method was already through the uTorrent shell and, according to the author of the post, worked with a bang in 3.4.2.
I downloaded 3.4.3 from the official site, tried to look for these notorious items, but they were not in the additional list. I tried the first method with editing the settings file manually - the file is saved, but as soon as I start the torrent - the data on the lines bt.sequential_download and bt.sequential_files disappears, and settings.dat.1432571245 files appear in the utorrent profile folder (etc.) .bad. That is, it is impossible to fix the file manually, but this possibility was removed from the program.
So here's the question - I'm the only one like this? Or is it that the developers of the utorrent of the next update have made another deterioration in their product?
And a question along the way. Can you recommend any alternative to this client? Or should you just roll back to an older version and turn off auto-update so that you don’t even get annoyed with advice?
UPDAhhhhhh....
Sorry, gentlemen. For once, I had a question that I did not find an answer to... And then, as it turned out, I found the answer, but due to my inattention, I missed a link to a third-party application that solves the problem.
In the same post, a link to the file , who are interested.
However, the question of whether it is worth switching to some other peer-to-peer client remains relevant. The last few updates have been frankly not far off.
