are you sure the files on your server and redirect are the same ?

Check your files to be sure.

I had some issues before with redirects too ...

The problem I had was I didn't have the address right .

Example ...

I now use  ..... http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/

The problem I had was my "line" was not complete .

The "line" I was using was .... http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4

If you click on the first line, you will see that it takes you too the x4v2.0 folder .

If you click on the second line, it only takes you to the main index ...

See the issue ?

Your "target" needs to be the "child" folder of the redirect, not the "parent" folder .

I dont know how to explain it any better .

Hope this helps you out .

P.s. ...

I just switched from gamerslifeline to eXtremeredirects .

Supposedly going to be faster then gamersll ... we shall see !

thx {BB}_KnifE you have been very helpful, yes the link is the problem but, files are in filezilla program, and i dont know how to insert proper line in server cfg to start download mod, how to create link to download direct from C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\usermaps\usermapname?

Ummm .you lost me man .... hahahahha

Are you running the server from your home computer ?

Are you running the server from an online gaming host ?

If it is an online gaming host, use the redirect link I have posted 3 replies up ....

http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/

This is a free redirect site .

If you have modified IWI / FF files that you are trying to redirect to, use extremeredirects .

Extreme redirects gives you your own little redirect server .

I use fireFTP to access all of my folders ect from extremeredirects .

fireFTP is an addon for mozzilla ... also what I use for modifying my gameservers files .

Put fireFTP on your mozzilla, go to tools, open fireFTP, insert your URL given to you by extremeredirects into search field, open the link in fireFTP, select edit, fill out the info required ( password ect ... ), then place a new folder called whatever into local disc "C" with your files in it, drag it to "/" which is the parent folder, and then point your redirect line at it like so ....

http://bb.xtremeredirect.com/x4v20

You will need some things tho to get extremeredirects to give you your own server .

You will need a website ( lots of free websites ) to place their banner on, and I put eXtremeredirect into my welcome messages on my 4xv2.0 mod saying "Special thanx to extremeredirects"

When you log onto my server, you see the last message says this .... makes them happy !

If all of that is too complicated, and you are running the stock mod, with no mods to IWII / FF files, use the gamerslifeline redirect .

http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/

Your simply going to put this line into your redirect setting like so ...

set sv_allowdownload "1"
seta sv_wwwDownload "1"
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/"
seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "1"

And here ...

set ex_allowDownload "1"            
set ex_wwwDownload "1"            
set ex_wwwDlDisconnected "1"         
set ex_wwwBaseURL "http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/"

This should work for anyone who wants to redirect to the STOCK 4xv2.0 mod files .


If this is a home based deal  ( home server ) don't ask me ... ask the boss {PST} Joker .... hes the man when it comes to this stuff ... nuff said !

Try using this setting ...

set sv_allowdownload "1"
seta sv_wwwDownload "1"
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/"
seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "0"   <------- used to be "1"

And ...

set ex_allowDownload "1"            
set ex_wwwDownload "1"            
set ex_wwwDlDisconnected "0"    <--------- used to be "1"      
set ex_wwwBaseURL "http://pubredirect.gamerslifeline.com/cod4/mods/x4v20/"

See if that works better for you .

I guess I would just put an announcement in the general discussions forum, or maybe even the cod4 general forum .

I Dont think that would upset anyone ...

I would deffinately NOT put it into any help forums, ot tutaorial forums or support forums .

It is deffienatley a "general discussion" deal to me ...
