I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I set up a RTCW server for the 20th anniversary so some old clan mates could get together and play. I'm running into a problem with the download speeds for custom maps. The speed or rate of download is 5000. Which in essence 2-3 kb a sec. I have changed the settings in the server.cfg Still no joy. I have a VDS the server runs on with NFO a Domain with a directory containing the custom maps. I would like to be able to have my clients download at a faster rate. See settings below. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
set sv_pure 1
seta sv_maxRate "512000" // 10000 standard but poor for ET
seta sv_dl_maxRate "512000" // increase/decerease if you have plenty/little spare bandwidth
seta sv_allowDownload "1" // global toggle for both legacy download and web download
seta sv_wwwDownload "1" // toggle to enable web download
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "osg.site.nfoservers.com/" // base URL for redirection
Are you sure the fast download server is actually working? When it downloads that slow, it's usually because it's downloading off the server itself. Can you verify the fast download server is working via either downloading different files, or checking your Apache access log? You can find it as `access_log` file or by viewing it online here: https://www.nfoservers.com/control/wfileman.pl
One thing I see as to why it might not be working is that you haven't included a protocol (most of the time you'll need http://, depends on the implementation), there's also a trailing slash which I usually don't use
ok here is an update I moved the directory to my secondary domain @ "http://osg2.site.nfoservers.com/maps/"
It is visible publicly and downloadable.
I changed the config using url settings
