Quake 4 World’s Quake 4 Files.
I stumbled across this great site, and I thought it needed a bit of advertising, since it looks like a pretty useful thing.

The purpose of the site is so that the URL - Redirect download system can be available to all Quake 4 admins world-wide. They just plug in a few lines in their server config, and let our system do all the file distribution handling to players. This should really boost the community quite a bit.
As everyone surely knows, Q4’s autodownload feature requires the pk4s to be something they call “AddonPak” files and to create those, just follow this link to a tutorial made by id Software. It would be great if map authors and mod authors could start fixing their paks and upload their maps and mods to the site so we have the autodownload feature completely available when final version of the patch is out and everyone starts upgrading their servers to V1.1.

To upload files, you have to be registered to Quake 4 Files and your upload will be reviewed by Q4F staff before it is published. The files are hosted on an unmetered connection so upload and download to your heart’s content. The more maps uploaded the better.


net_serverdownload "2"
0 = no auto-redirect support
1 = auto-redirect to website
2 = autodownload from link

net_serverDlBaseURL "http://q4files.escapedturkey.net/quake4/pk4s/"
This is the domain name of the hosting server and a base directory

net_serverDlTable "q4base/map_l4dm1.pk4;q4base/map_swq4dm1_final.pk4;q4base/map_l4dm2.pk4”
This is made to reflect the Q4 base directory

Ps. EscapedTurkey asked me to mention that the site is still a beta and they are looking for suggestions. Any kind of. Feel free to post suggestions, complaints, compliments, to this thread
