Hello,

I have own dedicated server for CS:GO, which includes custom maps and skins. I also have web host so other people can download files from server.

It's this : http://176.56.238.15/csgo

Because its the normal web host link downloading is not that fast as on other servers. I saw there is a thing called fastdl, which makes the download faster. But now i don't know how can i set that on my webhost, because i know there are link like http://fastdl.com and then /csgo/maps so do i need to change my link to http://176.56.238.15/fastdl/csgo/maps/ and i need some extra plugin or how can i set it up ?

Thanks for help

FastDL is what you have already. FastDL basically means downloading the maps/skins etc from somewhere else, that isn't the server itself. So you hosting the files on a webhost is FastDL. Your host just has limits on the speed you can download.

If you have a dedicated, you could potentially setup your own download service on there using IIS (for Windows dedicated). This is currently how I have mine setup.

Edit
I just want to check. You have entered the FastDL info into your server config and enabled FastDL correct?

sv_downloadurl "http://176.56.238.15/csgo/"
sv_allowdownload "1"

Edit x2
You don't need folders like "Translations" "Addons" "Cfg" "Plugins" "Scripting" etc on your website, only maps/materials/models/sound should really be used. Also you should compress files on the FastDL into .bz2 format. .BSP is only needed on the server itself.

Download speeds will depend on what your host offers. If their speeds are capped/bad then your players will notice that when downloading files.

And that part? Your files are still uncompressed, this would contribute to longer download times.

I noticed faster speeds once I converted all my addons to .bz2 format. FYI
