Map Downloading so long


Caïn

Recommended Posts

I'm sure the maps are here on forums or elsewhere online. Not saying that it's the best solution, but if you get stuck on download like that, it might be faster to just look it up online, download out of game and then rejoin. I've done that recently for one map, not sure which though.

There is cvar (do not remember which one) to allow http download in game, it is faster, without it you are downloading from game server directly which has limited bandwidth

cl_wwwDownload is 1 on my config and it still only downloads at 1.3 megabits/s.

I think it only works if the server is set to send an external (http) server location for the map files. And, even if it is, most servers now shunt all http traffic to https and I don't think the client supports that.
