Redirect Server Problems
Topic eS - Server

Heya
As you may have seen yourself, our redirect server isn't up since quite some time. For those who don't know what I'm talking about, the redirect server is storing all our files such as maps, mutators, staticmeshes, textures, sounds etc. for fast download. If you miss a file which you will need while playing on our servers, you will download the necessary file from the redirect server without the need to disconnect. Because we use a public redirect server, our servers suffer quite a lot if the redirect server is down. The hoster meant that it should have been up a while ago already. They were upgrading some hardware but so far it doesn't look that they could bring back the server yet.
I would create my own redirect server since that isn't a problem at all. Though, I don't do it because it uses a lot of bandwith which I cannot spend unfortunately so we need to live with it or find a better server.
Well, I hope it will be up and running soon again but as of yet, it doesn't work so sorry if you cannot download those files. I'll post when I know more. Thanks.
