Ive seen sv_wwwFallbackURL (without any values) in some server.cfg files. Does it exist?, is there a way to make it work? i would like to use multiple map reps, for when one map does not exist in certain site, it will redirect clients to an secondary place.
Thanks in advance
-
nope, this would require cooperation from clients. some clients do support http redirects, but that doesn't really help you
-
hmmm :-\
thanks tho.
Now, i thought of a possible solution =D
Make the server check if a certain file is on a certain www base, if not use a different wwwbaseurl =)
is that possible by customizing the game.qvm? (if so ill have to learn to code it =P)
-
game.qvm can't check if a file exists on a webserver, the server binary can but that's a pain. i would do it with shell scripts.

This could be what you are looking for.

Easiest way is to just use downloads.mercenariesguild.net
If there are any maps that aren't there, say and we'll add them.

i guess if you want instant upload, and don't have webspace of your own, you could try tremcentral (http://www.tremcentral.com/files.php)

They have instant upload now? What happened to them screening all the files?
-
oh, well, i guess they screen the files still... i didnt know about it, wat is the timeframe of uploading?
-
No idea. Doubt anyone has ever submitted it, what with how no servers use it.
