Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
Note that its currently submodule for existing CaDownloader but two parts are separate. I just used CaDownloader as a base because it has prepared infrastructure with self-updates etc..
Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
If it could also do mods... that'd be sweet...
Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
Yeah no big problem with that :)
But maps were easier because lobby advertises map hash but not mod hash..

Also note that due to technology used it takes about 15-30s to start download and discover map for your game.
This is to save some network traffic and system resources.. downloader is not seeding all maps but only those requested by others.

Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
both map & mod hashes are broadcasted:

hashcode is the mod hash

Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
Can I keep this running in the background to donate bandwidth?
Oh also, pretty soon I will be getting a dreamhost, can you set it up as a seeder?
Not to just be used primarily, but just to provide like maybe 50 kbps so that it just helps out, preferably with less dependence on it the more seeders there are.
Is this possible?

Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
Sure Foreboding .. I run mine to donate traffic too :)
And as for seeding torrents - you can basically run any torrent client with them to seed so no problem here - you can use dreamhost :)
BrainDamage - ok, thats great .. Right now some paths are hardcoded (to maps) but thats it should be trivial to add capability to all mods.

Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download

Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
server6 is probably down permanently. Hope you guys had a backup...
Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
Yeah I have backup and server can run anywhere (it doesnt need high bandwidth or space) so Im just waiting for det to redirect domain to my PC.
Re: Mapdownloader - automatic map discovery and P2P download
Ok I have backup downloader tracker running on my 4 years old home PC - so this system is back online now..
