Bacardi,
Very interesting.
You have given me something to investigate to try to get large bz2 files working on CSGO fast DL.
I downloaded that version of bz2 and used the default compression.
Still no joy. CSGO errors out on the DL.
I read the docs and it seems the only compress options is the block size, which I think only affects memory used during compression but still compressing with block size -1 still doesn’t work.
I found my notes and bz2 files over 43,556K error out in CSGO during download from my fast DL web site.
The same files unzipped download just fine and even uncompressed files over 450,000K DL just fine.
CryWolf.
For CSS is your fast DL server working with
bz2 files over 50MB zipped size?
Or are you saying bsp files over 50MB are working?
There seems to be no problem with size+uncompressed files,
but I may be fabricating a memory with CSS+>50MB+bz2 not working…
DarkDeviL,
thank you for this information.
I had that set to 1 for years on my servers and just tested and it definitely has nothing to do with DL or fast DL + maps.
Apparently there is a lot of dis-information out there.
Be careful who you follow including me!
