TF2 Slow auto-download
#1
Hi, new the the forums and have a problem.

Our server works great, we can call play on it and it is stable, but ONLY if you already have the maps. We use custom maps, and the auto-download is TERRIBLE. Is that a config setting, or are we hardware limited?

Thanks!

download speed are limited by the sv_maxrate, so if your maxrate is 9000, it will download with a maximum of 9KB/s

only way to make it go fast is use sv_downloadurl

Hi, thanks for the response. Currently we have sv_maxrate at 0, which says it is unlimited.

Where do I put the sv_downloadurl to point to?

You have to point it to a custom files mirror somewhere on a webserver, I've written a tutorial on it in the tutorials section.
