We run a joint clan that both caters for North America players and European players, but we are only a few months old so not to many members as yet. We have 3 servers running at the moment, my friend and fellow leader of the N.American side of the clan made up three .pk3 files to put in the ETPro folder but we are having trouble with them.
I have copied the post he made in the splash damage forum to see if anyone on these forums could also lend a helping hand and tell us whats going wrong.
I did search to see if i could find some answers to our problem but found nothing concrete to help us, anyway here's his post and thanks in advance for any advice given.
Again thanks if you can help.Not sure where is best to post this but I'm really having a rough time here.
Sorry in advance for my n00bishness..
server running etpro 3.2.0
added 3 new pk3's to the etpro folder (1 skin (~9mb), 1 sound(~9mb), 1 watermark(~20kb))
also running http://redirect for faster map downloads
Here's where it gets strange:
Upon first time connecting to server you are redirected to the redirect and start downloading the new pk3's. Goes super fast(~400-500kbps), downloads the entire thing... then, when it should just let you in the server, it kicks over to the the server and starts RE downloading the same .pk3 again only from the server(~8kbps) instead of the redirect.
OK, that's odd enough. However here's where it gets really strange:
If you delete all the .tmp pk3's that end up in your ETPro folder, and just download them (from the redirect via web-browser) and manually put them in your ETPro folder, it works fine... sound, skin, watermark... no problem.
If you delete ALL of those working ones, then try to join the server (to attempt the redirect download again) it works fine! It will, from that point on download correctly from the redirect and allow you into the server.
I'm totally lost.
HELP!?
