In talking to Carb & MFRX we've decided to try a pilot experiment with a massive http download for anyone who wants to run a DMC server to use to provide maps & files for your players.
Basically, if you've run a server you know that you have 2 main options: trickle the maps/sounds/etc through your server connection (which unless you are ded hosted/colo'd or have VERY fast upstream can take a long time), or use the sv_downloadurl function to redirect the actual downloads off a separate host (relieving the server of overhead & bandwidth).
Thought being we could provide all the latest versions of dmc maps, files, sounds (anything that can be provided by http download) accessable in one place for anyone who wants to run a server (or link the files directly) especially off a home connection without a ton of bandwidth or server storage space. If you've ever seen 17 players concurrently pulling down Dive's awesome Mego_beta you know it's not an option. 
Right now there's about 600M of maps, sounds, & gfx, and it's ready to use. If you're interested in participating in either uploading your maps or using the http for content, just touch base with mfrx (or alternatively, carb or myself).  |

| That's exceptionally kind of you gentlemen and I'd love to take advantage of this. I've been messing around with spare bits of hosting but I normally end up running out of bandwidth (and my avatar disappearing) around the 20th of each month. |

Server guys:
I've reactivated the http download and will publish it here for anyone to use through August. Hopefully this will help new users populate their game directories with custom maps, sounds, etc with fast downlaods so they'll be playable across multiple servers.
Admins, if you want to use the download service just add as per below in your server.cfg. Anyone is welcome to use this. I'm sure there are some maps missing since I've been out of the loop, just let me know, preferably via email loganatfragsmackdotcom
If you currently have http download set up and you want to leech off this bandwidth for the next month, just comment out your current link as so:
//sv_downloadurl "http://YOUR CURRENT DOWNLOAD URL/"
sv_downloadurl "http://www.gr8nmgz5.fragsmack.com/"
Enjoy!~ |

BUMP
will keep open through September. I have downloaded at 800KB/s from the host servers in game (Q4).
New additions are all the Q4 maps I happened to have and the cool DMC maps coincidence uploaded.
Any server admin on central is welcome to use this bandwidth (even cutme), just please don't publicize elsewhere.
There's so much bandwidth unused it's not even funny, if anyone wants to host a site on FS just ping carb or myself. |
