I've noticed that there's still a small bug with sound files that they don't
all unizp or download if they're in .bz2 format. Rejoin the server again and
it seems to work ok. So on our server i just left all the sound files
uncompressed, which is no big deal cause you don't save a lot of space on
.wav files as they're already quite compressed, and .mp3 files actually get
larger when 'compressed' to .bz2 lol (.mp3 being a super compressed format
already), so it makes no sense to try and compress them. For all other file
types the html downloading is working great for us with the files zipped to
.bz2. So if its just the sounds you're having trouble with, i'de suggest
uploading them uncompressed and compress everything else to .bz2

As for the slash at the end of your sv_downloadurl path, I'de say try it
both with and without and see which works for you. Some people swear it
won't work with a slash at the end, yet for us it simply will not work
without it and works great with it. I think it may have to do with the
platform/system that your html download site is set up on.
