Yeah if the version on your sv_downloadurl has no entities and the version on your server has all entities it should work fine. But I think people can still get around this by disabling web downloads? (help?)

Well if that's the case, I'm sure you can set up your server to only allow HTTP downloads, and block everything else.

As soon as sv_downloadurl is turned on, normal server downloads are ENTIRELY disabled.

is it? I was under the impression that it could be still access through a client side setting and if the remote http download fails it will fall back to the server slow download.

Though im probably wrong..

Well I have 3 'hacked' maps on our server and the clients only ever download the one from the HTTP (sv_downloadurl) server, although cs_italy isn't even downloaded since it's a default map in the GCF file.

I have:
  • cs_italy with added chickens
  • de_cpl_mill which I hacked the the lowgrav easter egg out of
  • cs_twilight which I hacked to remove the missing player model which was causing a red error to show up
