Fast download not working.
#1
Hi, I set up a website and I decided to use the fast download feature and bzip large custom maps to allow faster downloads. Problem is, when I tested it, it didn't work. I bzipped de_cpl_mill and added the download url (http://x.x.x.x/maps/css/) into my server.cfg. I also set net_maxfilesize to 50. I deleted the bsp from the maps folder and added the bzipped one, but when using sm_map de_cpl_mill in console, it says map not found. So, I just kept the normal bsp. When I connected to my server, it quickly downloaded the bzipped map (I think), then it said the map is missing. What did I do wrong?

I'll go through with you step by step from the beginning. Thus meaning, delete everything you have that you setup in order for your fastdl to attempt to work.

1) Make a folder on your website called "cstrike".
2) Inside of this folder, make another folder called "maps".
3) Now, anything inside of your orangebox/cstrike/maps folder for your server, you are to turn into bz2 (bsp's and nav's only needed).
4) You then upload these files to the cstrike/maps folder on your fastdl.
5) Go into your servers server.cfg, and add the line sv_downloadurl "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cstrike/" (MAKE SURE THE TRAILING SLASH IS THERE AT THE END OF "cstrike".
6) Stop. I'm tired of hearing people say they changed the file size command. You don't have to, and it's not needed. So delete it.
7) Restart your server, or exec server.cfg in the console, and you're good to go.

Thanks, it works great now.

Just curious, for hlstatsx would it be http://x.x.x.x/%GAME%/maps/%MAP%.bsp.bz2?
