Try enabling auto-download by main options in tremulous or downloading maps and putting them in your tremulous/base folder.

Map download links:
http://downloads.mercenariesguild.net/maps/
http://tremulous.bricosoft.com/base/

Also, can someone refresh my memory of what the command was for enabling auto_download in console? Was it /seta cg_AutoDownload 1 or something?

cl_allowDownload 1

That should do the trick. If the download is really slow, get a better client.

set cl_wwwdownload 1
Will allow the use of HTTP downloads if enabled on the server. This will allow faster downloads as otherwise you'll be downloading at 5kbps over the Q3 connection.

If I am not mistaken you need a recent client to do that.

F.e. TJWs backport on http://trem.tjw.org/backport
Or the new client from http://trem-servers.com
Or any more recent client.

Cl_wwwallowdownload 1 - careful of unsupported maps ( not on http sites) as you will get a 404 error.

There are cl_allowdownload and cl_wwwdownload
They do exactly what the name says: 1st allows download and 2nd is for using www download instead of the normal slow download.
