Hi,

I'm new to hosting TF2 Servers, and I'm trying to play on a map but the map is over the 64MB file size. I've been looking around the web and I see that you have to make a web server or something? How do you do that, and is there any other way to do increase the download limit besides the web server?

Or simpler, just use a http offload setup. That's better for everyone.

To increase the file download limit to say 100 you use the command:
net_maxfilesize 100
This goes in your server.cfg file in your cfg directory. If you don't have one, create one.
Doesnt work, that's what I was talking about with the whole "Max file size is 64MB". I can put net_maxfilesize 1000 if I wanted to and still the max it can go to is 64. :(

if the map is over 64mb in size. You need to compress it down using bz2 (I think) or similar.
