Problem Downloading Resources


Recommended Posts

I've been having trouble connecting to the server lately. Whenever I try to connect I get ridiculously slow download speeds. It would take 10+ minutes to download a small map. By the time I enter into a game, it's already rtv time.

Whenever I restart my router and get a new ip address, the download speed is great, and only takes a couple of minutes (if that) to connect to the server. However once I enter the server, subsequent connects slow to a crawl again.

 I turned to downloading maps through https://fastdl.nide.gg/css_ze/maps/ but the same issue happens. I can download all the maps (using a custom script that checks already installed maps against server list), and I can download decently fast. However once I connect to the server, it's as if my player name triggers a connection throttling on my current ip and fastdl throttles my connection. I don't know if this is what is happening, but it appears that this is the case.

The solution to my problem is not ideal. I basically restart my router, download the maps that I need, and make sure to set the multiplayer option 'only allow map files' in-game. If I check 'allow all custom files from server', I will be stuck downloading materials, particles, etc. at a slow speed (around 2-20 kbps). Particle effects are obviously essential, so this solution isn't a good one.

I also see this problem, so what's the actual solution? Only download resources outside of CS:S? Buy VIP? Keep changing IP address until you get all the files? 😂

It's easy to reproduce, IP address is clearly being throttled after connecting to the server...

  1. Go to https://fastdl.nide.gg/css_ze/maps/ in web browser and download any file. ✅ Result: works fine.
  2. Connect to server in CS:S. ❌  Result: starts downloading resources, and then gets stuck after a few seconds.
  3. Go again to https://fastdl.nide.gg/css_ze/maps/ in web browser.❌  Result: page doesn't even load anymore.
  4. Change IP address with VPN (or as the above poster was doing... by rebooting router).
  5. Go to https://fastdl.nide.gg/css_ze/maps/ ✅  Result: downloads work fine again until you connect to the server in CS:S

    • Hello, I watched the demo of this map. He wasn't shooting any props or barricades but 2 func_breakable things that are meant to be destroyed anyway. If you decide to stand on top of them, don't be surprised if they are destroyed. It's just a part of the map. You could have found another place to use. Also, we by default don't censor anyone's speech or certain profanities so we don't care if players use such language on the server.  However, seems like the rules are a bit inaccurate about sprays since we do ban all sprays that contain pure nudity so your spray was banned based on that. The admin acted properly. We will update the rules concerning this part soon/later to make it clear. Closed.
    • After reviewing the demo and some clips, I have adjusted the mute duration from permanent down to 2 weeks. This isn't the first time you have mic spammed and talked over leader, and it seems like you just won't learn your lesson no matter how many punishments you have received. Just the last month alone, you have had more punishments than my 10 fingers could count. Please take these 2 weeks to reflect on your behavior and I hope you can improve yourself as a player. Second, you going around and calling admin "shit abuser" without giving proper context doesn't help your admin report. I'm sure you're old enough to understand the instructions and what we expect from you when it comes to appeals, so we expect you to follow these rules as well. Third, we noticed you made the comment "Seven : okay good luck lunala i will burn this server and site down" in chat. This isn't something you should be joking around, especially when you want to appeal your mute. This doesn't really look good for you. Please take these 2 weeks to reflect on your actions and grow up.
