Re: [hlds] SV_DownloadURL
Sorry I was not trying cause a problem. Yes using a seprate web server is a great idea, my posts were targeting the guys that were having problems getting all the right files to there web share, my solution (and yes when large groups of players do not have the map there is a lag, but in my case it's the limit of transfer my server solutions has,I am only allowed so much of the OC3 pipe per second) makes it simple to install new maps, I don't have to worry about installing the map in more then one place. Every thing installed on the server is all ready made available to the web server due to the nature of the setup.

I agree if your running your server over a low speed connection, then running the web service on the same connection is a bad idea and will not realy give you any gain in gamers experince. So in that case having a Web server somewhere on the internet would be a far better advantage. But come on, if your running a good game server one of the things you should be running on is a high speed connection. As for cost, if you all ready running on a high speed connection, your probly all ready paying at least 50 to 100 buck a month for the server all ready.

Think about it. Do you really want your Game Servers precious resources being squandered on downloading map files to 18 players on a full 24 slot server? The other six players are going to experience some erratic play while your server pushes out files to 18 people at the same time and tries to run your game servers. Not to mention anyone playing on any other game servers you happen to be running at the same time will suffer as well. If you do not have separate web space there are places to get sv_downloadurl resources for a very reasonable price.I use URLDownload.com and I have been very happy with them.

It was* recommended* to me (and I agree) that you shouldn't run them both on the same box. The numbers I gave were similar to an example given to me to explain why and I have certainly seen that situation come up. I was having a serious problem with momentary lag on map changes when a large group of players had to download the maps. File transfer uses considerable resources. If enough players are downloading a large map at the same time it will slow things down. I had a CS server that was almost entirely Custom maps with a couple of new ones added every week or so. I also had a CZ server with many Custom maps. We had a devoted following of players that played there, one because of the maps and two because of the High Speed Downloads that kept them from having to go get them. Having sv_downloadurl services on the same box shortened the time that the server was effected but it was still there. Moving the files off site to another location solved the problem entirely. My account at urldownload.com cost around $12.95 a month I believe and can host maps for all of my servers. I also have a friends development site hosted there with plenty of room to spare. I feel that it is well worth the money. Just my 2-cents guys. Sorry if it came across wrong. If you feel that you can run it on the same box then go for it. I found that with my

[hlds] RE: Engine update
I second that. Is there some reason that you would release a patch with so many known issues with mods with out any warning? The reasonable thing would have been to give the community a heads up about what you were breaking so these issues could be addressed BEFORE the update.

That's just not possible, so lets say you make a cup holder, and give specs on what type of cups it can support, someone makes a cup that does not follow your spec, does that mean your required to chamge your cup holder to match someone who didn't take the time to build the right cup for the holder? Valve is not and should not be expected to make sure there code updates do not break the badly designed cup (thrid party MOD).

I'm in Australia, so I generally cop all these updates on a Saturday. I'm pretty familiar with how often these issues crop up; I remember them vividly because I'm usually hungover and wishing I wasn't working. I'd rather keep Valve bashing to a minimum so we can resolve the issues immediately by only offering useful feedback to the list, so I can go back to trying to enjoy my 'day off'.

Re: [hlds] RE: Mandatory Source engine update later today...
That's nice, however, of all the professional game developers, Valve is the only one constantly updating it's games. Shit happens, get over it. They don't owe you anything, though I know you think they do. See, when they announce an update coming soon, it's a curtesy. They could simply release it and leave you with your pants aroud your ankles, but they don't... they alert us all with these messages. Then, they alert us that they won't be able to release it because there's a last minute problem. Sounds professional to me. Taking the time to make sure the fans are in the know. Wow. More than can be said for just about every game company out there. In any event, is there a way I can get the command parameter for dod:s?
