Hello,

I'm following this link:

https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...9717-HMAP-7066

I have installed IIS and put the quake sounds on there and added this to the server.cfg:

//Downloadurl CVARS
sv_downloadurl "http://81.171.156.81/valve_downloads"
sv_allowupload 0
sv_allowdownload 1

But it is still downloading from sound\Quakesounds\name.wav

It seems all downloads now go to the clients:

c:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Half-Life\valve_downloads\sound

So what should my web server structure be?

What have I done wrong?

Thanks

The folder structure remains unchanged. It should mimic the server's game directory. The "*_downloads" folder on the client is there simply to separate the default files from the files that are downloaded from various servers. Also, all files and folders should have the exact same capitalization that is on the server.

Somthing like this:

http://81.171.156.81

valve\sounds\Quakesounds

I don't know if my server is even looking at the server.cfg and nothing happens, but here is wat I added:

//Downloadurl CVARS
sv_downloadurl "http://81.171.156.81"
sv_allowupload 0
sv_allowdownload 1

I just connected to the HL1DM server and no fast downloads.

Does it look ok?

If you are running a cstrike server your directory structure should look like: /cstrike/sound/QuakeSounds/
If so, just add: sv_downloadurl "http://81.171.156.81/cstrike/" in server.cfg

PS: What is your hlds server build?

Hi,

I'm using HL1 Deathmatch so I see it uses the valve directory.

My server.cfg contains the below statement, but I'm starting to think when I click Hlds.exe it doesn't read that file.

sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1

sv_downloadurl "http://81.171.156.81/valve/"

Version is StamCMD

status
hostname: APUK Deathmatch Server
version : 48/1.1.2.2 6132 insecure

On this server I have this:

C:\hlsvr\valve\sound\QuakeSounds>

It is a Windows 2003 server with IIS installed for the web which points to the local directory C:\hldownloads which contains valve\sound\Quakesounds

You will see it if you browse to http://81.171.156.81/valve/

Let me know what other info you requie.

Thanks for finding the time to help guys.

sv_downloadurl "http://81.171.156.81/valve/"

This is correct. After you start your server, you should check the cvar in console. Simply type "sv_downloadurl" without the quotes and hit enter. See if it shows the correct URL. If it shows correctly then there's not much else you can do. I can't remember and don't think it should matter but you could try removing the last slash.

Also, how do you know it is or isn't working?

This is what I see:

sv_downloadurl
"sv_downloadurl" is "http://81.171.156.81/valve"

If I now connect it just uses the trickle slow method.
