Let me understand...
1) You tried to connect to that game server, and it failed due to not being able to get speedyctf.pk3 from its http server.
2) Then you manually downloaded speedyctf.pk3 from another http server, and placed it into
your OA installation folder (basepath)/baseoa.
3) Then you tried connecting to the game server again, and still got the same error?
In this case, it's strange it still tries to download it again if you already have it. It's however possible that the server owns a different version of the map (e.g. a previous or later beta), hence the client tries to download it again...
Some more infos you may add may include:
- What's the server where you are experiencing the problem?
- What's your cl_allowdownload value?
- Are you sure you don't have more versions of that pk3 under
