Where do I edit Client map-downloading
 

Hi. Im running a dedicated server with amxx, and wonder where i can control the speed of client downloading. I know i should have a http-download.....but its way to advanced for me:)

When players connect to my server and they dont have the map, they get a really slow download.....and they leave.

Any suggestions?

I have an idea, but I don't know how/if it will work.

www.fpsbanana.com has a wide variety of maps for different HL based games.
If you could link the players downloads to their website in some way it might work better. You might need some permission, coding and linking... it would take lots of work..
I don't know how that actually works... it's just an idea.

Moved to offtopic.

sv_downloadurl is really the only way to get acceptable map download speeds.

I dont think so.....there is a way to adjust the downloadrate....i read it somewhere.

Read the topic where styles is giving free donwloadurl

you just have to place in your server.cfg this:

sv_allowdownload 1
sv_downloadurl "http://name_of_web/cstrike/"

then use a ftp manager to upload maps to the web on the folder /cstrike/

important!
you have to place things on the web exactly has you have then in your computer. EXAMPLE:
/cstrike/models/
/cstrike/sounds/
/cstrike/sprites/
