It does work well
I think the cvar should be hidden too.

I have a little more info on this,
Ive been playing with it for a few days now :)

It works very very well , but i think it needs a couple more features.

firstly a guide

sv_downloadurl "http://www.yoururlhere/mod/";
in your /pathtowebsite/mod/
u need the same filestructure as your hlmod directory eg
/pathtowebsite/mod/
/pathtowebsite/mod/maps
/pathtowebsite/mod/sounds
/pathtowebsite/mod/textures
etc,etc

Now for the things that I think need to be added.
support to download wad files. I doesn't appear to atm
If the file isn't found on the webserver It needs to have the ability be
able to fall back to the server.

Apart from that it is great

Kingsley
