How do I get faster downloads at lans
I posted earlier about faster downloads for servers. Great about getting a web host. (Great) OK. The last few lans that I went to they have it set to download fast from their server at the lan (not using internet). But when I hooked mine up for a lan, ppl still have a long download off my computer/server. My machine is a AMD64 6400+ Dual Core with 8 GB of ram DDR2. Using XP Pro 64bit. How do they make it where they have what seems to be super download speed compared to 18 minutes download for a 8mb map for me?

Use HTTP Downloads. Suggested keywords: sv_downloadurl

Yea that works great if you connect to internet. What if you're not, just on lan where 75 people use the same internet. That kinda makes it slow. Is that all there is. Nothing to install on computer itself?

How is the network you're connected to relevant?
If you wanted, you could set up a web server on each machine and use your HOSTS file to route the sv_downloadurl requests to localhost. You could also set up a batch script to copy the maps from the game server to the client machines. What you should do: set up HTTP downloads. You don't need to be connected to the internet if the web server is hosted within your LAN. HTTP downloads are not "slow". |

Set up a local box to be a local webserver to host the files locally.
