I stand corrected, the most elegant way would of course be to only
allow downloads from hosts that are already connected or connecting to
the game server.

You HAVE to restrict access via IP on the webserver itself. Sadly there's no
other way.
Turning off directory browsing is useless, as they'll find

The first thing I would do (which I have already done) is disable
directory browsing on all those folders.. no reason to let the search
engines crawl through all your files so they can indexed up on google.

If it's an apache webserver, you can use an htaccess file to limit
referers. I'll post mine when I get home.

Assuming you're using apache, just set up something with mod_rewrite
(.htaccess):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/maps/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^hl2://123.45.67.89
RewriteRule ^.* / [F]
Replace the map path prefix and server IP as needed. If you have
multiple IPs, use something
The problem is is it's not YOUR server IP that is used to connect. It is
connecting clients IP's.
The best way I can think of is a plugin. OnClientConnect (If run before
downloads start), add the ip to a database, and then use url rewrite and
get a php script to handle the downloads.

I'm sure someone will chime in with better answers, but off the top of my
head I can think of a couple options for you..
