Need help setting up sv_downloadurl.

pzotti · 08-30-2012, 05:15 AM

Hi there!

Can somebody explain to me how to make it work under CS:GO ?
I had no problem with CS: Source and CS1.6 .. but CS:GO, for some reason, does not let me download the map.

This is what I have in my server.cfg file;
sv_downloadurl "http://bye.site.nfoservers.com/csgo"
sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1

Right now, the map on the server is de_mirage_csgo.
My server is: bye.axohost.net (port 27015)

The map was also added to my map group.

Can somebody explain to me, why the map is not downloading when people connect to the server ?

Thanks.

I don't ignore others, don't worry

I didn't change anything.

1- Making sure the map was in my mapgroup.
2- Added the 3 following commands in server.cfg:
sv_downloadurl "http://bye.site.nfoservers.com/csgo"
sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1

3- Restarted the server.
4- Its up & running!

how do I know what to put for where it downloads from. I have an "ultimate server"

Jaashua · 08-31-2012, 04:36 AM

???? How do I find out the url to use????

What is an ultimate server ?

You need a webhosting to put all your files on (maps, texture, models etc..)
So if you webhosting is www.1freehosting.com for example and your userid is Jashua, you would get something like www.1freehosting.com/jashua

What you have to do it to make a copy of your csgo\maps and csgo\materials folder on your webhosting. (Same pattern as your csgo folder on your computer).

At the end, you would have www.1freehosting.com/jashua/csgo
This is what you would put into sv_downloadurl.

In your server.cfg you would now have;
sv_downloadurl "www.1freehosting.com/jashua/csgo"
sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1

You can take example on mine (http://bye.site.nfoservers.com/csgo)

Im so confused I put my stuff on an ftp.

pzotti · 08-31-2012, 06:32 AM

To make it clear, you need 2 FTP access.

1 FTP access to your gameserver.
1 FTP access to a webhosting (which will redirect the download of maps of your gameserver)

Yeah well its a control panel to set up your game servers. I understand that but that has nothing to do with the webhosting FTP.

I sent a support ticket asking what mine was.
