Please help: Cannot download zombie mod in game, very frustrated

[ZERO]

Strange, I deleted all the files on my comptuer and everything dl just fine. I downloaded a large map and all the skins in 2min 30seconds.

I will try some more tests to determine why this is occuring only to some users.

Clients may also want to try "cl_downloadfilter none"

my friend that tried to join has played before but ever since he got a new computer he cant get into zmod

It is only effecting a select few people which is why i dont think it is server side.

When I put in "cl_downloadfilter none" It just throws error when downloading any map

So I changed it back to "cl_downloadfilter all" and it lets me download again just very very slow

If you every decide to compress all the maps and skins on the server and upload em, just leave the link here. At least it's a temp fix for us

EDIT: I was looking at the network traffic and when I get into the game of a IBIS one its fine but when I'm downloading from a IBIS one its slow, So its gotta be a network issue I'm not saying it's on the server it's probably somewhere in the route and or a throttling problem somewhere in route as you can see below the traffic is under a major throttle somewhere(the picture is downloading from the WCS server) and you can see it's insanely slow. Traffic is IN | OUT




I'm just going to wait it out for a week and see if the problem is still around

Thanks for the help, if you need me to check something just message me on this thread

cl_downloadfilter "all"
cl_allowdownload "1"
cl_forcepreload "1"

Is what I am using and it works right away. Can you confirm if it is stoping you from downloading or just downloading very slow.

I can confirm that on my system everything is downloading as bz2 files and I am able to connect from a fresh install in 2min.

I tired to clear out old cach data in the server to see if that helps. Also the data is not downloaded from the game server so what that speed was is the actual game data connection not a map dl.

The only thing I can think of is if the clients are setting off the firewall somehow.

Please send me your ip right after you have problems downloading things that we know work like the zombie skins and models from the server. I can then check if that ip is getting banned.

Ok so I put in all these

cl_downloadfilter "all"
cl_allowdownload "1"
cl_forcepreload "1"

It's the same. It downloads, but very slow like 50B/s

I also did another fresh install of windows7 / disabled all my firewalls on the windows install and my routers / deleted my CSS steam cloud(I thought maybe something was corrupted in it) / fresh CSS download from steam and also got a new IPv4 IP from my ISP but still slow as hell :[


I used to play on the server fine without any problems :l


I'll send you my IPs so you can check em if the firewall is doing anything

I need that ip as soon as you know it so I can confirm the issue.

I sent them in a PM
