Title: Slow download rate from server Post by: christooss on March 24, 2009, 04:12:47 PM I have setuped server and now I when I stumble in to new map(not on my hardisk) client downloads map at 2KB rate. I found these options:
set sv_allowDownload "1" // enables downloading maps from server set sv_wwwDownload "1" // enables the http redirect set sv_dlURL "http://www.url-to-your-files.com" // sets the location of the files set sv_wwwDlDisconnected "1" // disconnects the client while it's downloading the files set cl_wwwDownload "1" // connects the client again when the download is finished Do I have to setup apache with baseoa map to use this http thingy? Or is somehow http protocol enabled? Probably not but I still have to ask :) Title: Re: Slow download rate from server Post by: sago007 on March 24, 2009, 04:20:17 PM You need to host a separate www-server (such as apache) to speed things up.
You need to setup the paths so they match the placement of the pk3 files, such as: If sv_dlURL is "http://www.example.com/~myuser/openarena/" and the map is placed in openarena-0.8.1/baseoa/themap.pk3 then http://www.example.com/~myuser/openarena/baseoa/themap.pk3 must be the path to the map Title: Re: Slow download rate from server Post by: christooss on March 24, 2009, 06:12:39 PM Great tnx.
