I understand the logs, It's 404 because i don't host the .bsp files. There shouldn't be a need to have people download non compressed files which is why i only host the .bsp.bz2 files. I'm just curious if anyone knows why a client might be looking for the .bsp first instead of the .bsp.bz2

As you can see, in the above lines, the second line has "404" instead of 200. This means the .bsp file is not there, or could not be read by your server. Check your servers orangebox/tf/maps directory. You either only have the .bz2 file there, or the bsp is not readable by your apache server. Hope this helps. _______________________________________________________ Shane Arnold - clontar...@iinet.net.au "For want of a nail, the horseshoe was lost.
